Saffron Taylor and Reese Mortimer. If you ask around the school, it's most likely that you could count on one hand the number of people that know who they are. Hardly anybody knows they exist, never mind the fact that they go to the same school and all of that lark. This doesn't seem to bother the two of them, though - they carry on with their quiet little lives without a care in the world.
The problem is that constantly blending into the walls has left them with no 'friends' of sorts - leaving them with next to no social skills and no confidence. Whether it's the principal, other members of staff, other members of the student body; they rarely speak at all. But the fact that you don't speak, have no confidence and no social skills and make thing pretty hard when you have a crush on somebody. Yes yes, the two mutes of the school have crushes on each other. How adorable, right? Sorta. The two have never actually spoken to each other in either way. Their relationship mainly consists of fleeting glances across the classroom or the hallway, not daring to walk over and say high. Even if they did gather up the guts to say 'hi', they would have no idea what to say next and make idiots of themselves anyway. Come to think of it, there is one thing think that they could talk about.
Their love of art. It was in art class that they first laid eyes on each other [making sure the other didn't see, of course]. That was the start of a long, mutual crush. They've seen each other's art work, but have never had the guts to walk up and say that they have talent. Reese thinks Saffron is pretty, Saffron thinks Reese is cute. But once again; they don't have the guts to say it to their faces. Will they carry on admiring each other from afar, or eventually manage to say something for once in a while?
