The story : Lucas is a 14-year-old outcast.
He is so smart that he skipped a couple grades and goes to high school with older , much bigger teens.
Lucas doesn't really care about fitting in so when he meets 16-year-old Maggie during the last two weeks of summer before school starts , he fills her in on whose who and what to expect.
Namely , Lucas is interested in not conforming to fit in.
Shortly after school starts , Maggie gets to know popular jock Cappie , who happens to be the only senior who is nice to Lucas.
