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?

 “What’s with all the noise?” A classmate of mine asks, passing us as she walks to the lunch line. 


 “Nothing,” I say, quickly, “Absolutely nothing.” 


 Through the hot and cold kiss challenge.

 God, I wouldn’t mind being shot right now. 


 “No,” Kyle breathes, shaking his head. “God, no.” 


 My eyes have gone wide and the phone in my hand falls to the floor. 


 “MALORY!” Olivia yells, gasping. “Do you know how much this costs? Jeez,” she says, stooping to pick it up. “You’ll buy me a replacement if something goes wrong with this one.” She rolls her eyes.
