Beauty.
This world is filled with beauty, but not many people can see beyond skin deep beauty, and the ways of their twisted lives. No matter how beautiful someone is on the inside, the outer beauty is the only thing that seems to matter to people anymore. Those who don't have the outer beauty are teased, and bullied because they aren't "Beautiful". But they are. Just it's on the inside. This is the reason the world has mutes. People who don't speak. It's not right anymore that the people with the outer beauty get everything while the people with the inner beauty get nothing. That's why, one particular mute has decided that it's her job to raise hell among the students at a particular school. And this is her story.
~~~~
Meet Zoe Belle Clemmings. She's been a mute since middle school, when the bullying got really bad. She's tempermental, and expresses herself through various ways; Painting, writing, notes, signs, or just lyrics. She'll sometimes play a song that expresses how she feels. Those who knew Zoe before middle school went their seperate ways, some moved, some became popular. Some just didn't want anything to do with Zoe anymore. This fueled Zoe to be a mute even more. Now one knows for sure if she doesn't have a voice to use anymore, or if she just doesn't want to use it. She's been made fun of through out most of highschool, and now in her Junior year she wishes to make a difference in the system of the student body.
She signed up for the student council, and to everyone's surprise and some's disgust, she got onto it. Now a member of the student coucil, she has to work along side some of the more popular students, and some of the more liked students. Whenever she's around they're rather quiet, and they seem to watch their step, pretending to care about what Zoe thinks. But Zoe knows this for what it really is; They're scared of her because she's a mute, and because she's different. They don't know what Zoe's capable of, and they don't know for sure if she has a voice. But one of the members, Ben Thompson*, seems to be intrigued by Zoe.
Meet Benjamin Thomspon. He's captain of the football team, and the school hearthrob. He's goregous, and surprisingly mature for his age. He's a sweet guy as well. Though, he seems to fit the boy-next-door type instead of the school hearthrob. He's generally intrigued by Zoe, and is generally kind to everyone. He cares what his friends think, and his girlfriend is the prettiest, most bitchiest girl in the school. Ben hates her, and would much rather go for a girl who understands him, but he doesn't want his friends to think he's a loser. He wants to make a difference in the school, which is the reason he's on the student council.
So what happens when the members of student council have to pair up and come up with a simple plan to better the school system? Ben and Zoe get thrown together. Zoe almost immediately becomes enraged, and points out on a piece of paper that she would much rather work with the only friend she has on the student council, Christine*, but the council says she must work with Ben. They are given until the end of the school year to come up with a simple plan to change the system in which things work, and Ben and Zoe must get together once a week to come up with idea's. The few friends that Zoe has are apalled by this thought, as are Ben's.
So when Zoe and Ben get together to make a plan, it does not go smoothly. Zoe's friends end up having to go over to Ben's place where the meeting had taken place and hold her back. Ben's friends go over as well, and they have to yell at Zoe's friends to calm her down. In a fit of rage, Zoe had taken ahold of a plate, and thrown it at Ben. Eventually, Zoe calms down enough to get back to work, but both Ben's friends and Zoe's refuse to leave for the simple fact that they are all scared that Zoe would bring the house down in a violent fit of her rage. After the first almost disastrous meeting, Ben and Zoe agree that they should each have two friends there that can keep an eye on things, should things end up disastrous like the first meeting. But they just can't seem to cooperate with anything during the meetings.
Will Ben and Zoe ever be able to work together and form a plan by the end of the year? And what will happen between Ben and Zoe since they both want the same thing? Will Zoe warm up to Ben? Or will the two fail at coming up with a plan, only to get shunned by the school? And will this partnership bloom into something more, or will it stay just that.
