Ashley is the kind of girl everyone knows.

At eighteen, she's the most popular student at school, beautiful, intelligent, athletic, and seemingly untouchable. She walks through the halls with effortless confidence, always wearing a calm smile that makes it impossible to tell what she's really thinking.

To most students, Ashley is arrogant, sarcastic, and impossible to approach. She rarely wastes words, never chases friendships, and has a reputation for putting people in their place with a single sharp remark. Some admire her. Others avoid her. Almost everyone has an opinion about her.

Rumors follow Ashley everywhere, but none of them ever seem to tell the whole story.

The strange part isn't who Ashley appears to be.

It's how often her actions seem to contradict the image everyone has of her.

Whether that's coincidence... or something nobody has bothered to notice... is for others to find out.
