Malory and Kyle must participate in the annual April Fest production as the leading co-stars. If they can cooperate by the end of the production, their long records of uncivilized behaviour towards each other will be forgotten. 
Malory and Kyle attempt to cooperate, grabbing the opportunity to make a positive impact on their own future. In the process, they become entangled in the chaos of the other’s personal life. Malory learns of Kyle’s disturbing reality, and Kyle learns of Malory’s scarring past. Can these two brilliant but messy teens learn to rely on each other in the face of their silent battles?

Between The Lines

 I sit in my room while Rachel is in the shower and Denise is downstairs watching the television. 


 I stare at my schoolbag –with the amazingly soft, navy blue duster I bought for Ron, folded neatly and wrapped into gold gift paper, and dressed with a tiny red bow. 


 Ron said that he won’t exactly be having a party –but he is inviting Kyle, Malory and I to his house for the evening. 


 Malory doesn’t seem to be anywhere when we need her these days however, because she’s spending all her free time up in the Tech lab or the library. 


 I’ve got to find a way to get out of the house on Ron’s birthday. 


 Maybe I should leave the gift in my school bag and take the bag with me to the party? 


Me: Can you talk to my aunt and ask her if I can spend the night over at your place on Thursday night?
