"Is this the eeeennnddddd??? Are you you my friend??" These are the lyrics were were half singing/half laughing in front of the hallway mirror with hairbrush microphones in hand. It was early 1980's and New Edition was all the rage. We played out the cassette over and over again while dancing and singing or hours in front of the mirror just dreaming for the day we would meet the band.
It was perfectly normal for Sam to walk home after school by himself. With slight envy, he eyed the boys laughing and playing across the street on the same path home wishing he didn't feel invisible.

He kept hearing a crunch of leaves behind him but when he turned to investigate, the path behind him was empty.

The library appeared to be a lonely, mostly deserted place. But for Jenna, it was an escape. Just by opening the pages of an undisturbed book could take her wherever she wanted to go, forgetting the chaos that had become her life. That all changed when she saw him sitting in the biography section. The faded blue sweatshirt pulled out the color in his eyes that seemed to go on for days. She normally would not have noticed a detail like that but the presence of another person in this usually empty section took her by surprise.
