## Premise

Forced together by a school project, 4 completely different kids have a semester to trust each other enough to give out their biggest secrets. But with these kids, there is a lot more than what lies on the surface.

## Overview

The series focuses on four different people from the four corners of the school, and they all have different cliques and are completely different people. Charlie is the jock that everyone thinks is to full of himself, Becca is the Rebel Outcast who everyone is too afraid to befriend, Riley is the Queen Bee who everyone thinks is sleeping with every guy, and Alex is the smartest kid who everyone thinks is to obsessed with the fact that he is smarter and richer then everyone else to make many friends. However, they say that you should never judge a book by its cover, and for these four kids, is especially true.

Charlie is a part of a gang. He was born into it, and the only thing that is keeping him there is that the life of his little brother, Teddy, is on the line. He has seen the unseen, and has to go to school the next day like he lives a normal life. Becca is suffering from Clinical Depression, and shes had it ever sense her mom left her and her dad. She is cold and dark and shuts people put because of it, she cannot let anyone know. Riley does drugs to numb the pain, and usually ends up herself too drunk or high to even know what shes doing. She usually wakes up in a new bed every other night. Alex is an in the closet gay, which is not bad, unless your mom and dad are extremely rich homophobic people who would not hesitate to kick Alex out of there is something wrong with him. He has to even bring girls home to convince his family that he is straight.

In Mrs. Carroll's English class, the class is put in groups where they have all quarter to answer one question: there biggest secret. Mrs. Carroll does not require homework, research, or even any classwork, they must just be with their group and get to know each other well enough to be able to tell each other anything, and Charlie, Becca, Riley, and Alex are put together.

They cant stand each other at first, they hate every fiber and being of each other. But as they get closer, band together with the forcefull nature of Mrs. Carroll, they find out that they shouldn't hate each other for having what they want, but should come together, bonding over the things that they do not have.
