    Hamilton Academy of the Arts. The school Sydney Acosta moved to all the way from Toronto, Ontario in a barely known city. After the divorce between her mother and father, she's stuck by her mother's side, following her to another city in Canada. Her emotions are expressed through the one thing she loves doing: dancing. 
          
          Lucas Cahill is a quiet, almost outcast in the school. His twin brother, Joseph, better known as Joey, is the best known guy in school. He's considered popular, cooler and better looking than his brother despite the two having the same face. At school, Joey doesn't acknowledge his brother, at home and in the past they are inseparable with the excuses from Joey tolling up over time. His isolation and other emotions are expressed through his art. 
          
          The two seventeen year olds are connected in their different forms of art in a teenage story filled with drama, sarcasm and loads of creativity. 
        
        
          "My drawings are like stick figures compared to anything you draw. You could draw the world's ugliest frog and it will still turn out beautiful. Lucas you're an amazing artist." 
          
          "So are you." He said quietly, looking up at me with his soft, heartwarming eyes. 
          
          "How?"I couldn't draw for shit.
          
          "Because you are a dancer. Dancing is an art. And you are an amazing dancer."
