I didn't use the same plot line as the book, I just used the whole email/who is Blue thing.

As soon as he got home, Evan ran straight to his room, leaving his backpack carelessly on the floor. It was always his first and highest priority to check his email as soon as he got out of school, but today his phone had died, so he had to wait until he got to his laptop.

Logging onto his email account, he couldn't help but get goosebumps in anticipation of what might be in his inbox. And sure enough, there was one new email in his inbox:

Re: the Oreos thing

Tree Boy-
I can't help but agree with you- Halloween Oreos are definitely better than the regular kind, but did you know the cream flavor is the same? They just dye it orange. I just think that's fucking stupid, they should flavor it like candy corn or something.
But I'm still very excited though, I'm actually stopping at Walmart on my way home from school to pick up a pack for myself.

Sincerely,
Me

So he has a car, Evan thought to himself. He'd been emailing a mystery boy from the same school as him for a few months from now, and was keeping a list of all the things he knew about whoever it was. So far Evan has found out that he's gay, loves classic rock and Oreos, and now he has a car. It's a very small list, but it's eliminated a lot of people from his school. Evan smiles to himself as he came up with a response:

Re: the Oreos thing

Hey-
I'm excited for you! I wish I could get a pack, but I don't have a car. Maybe you could take me sometime?
Sincerely,
Me

As soon as he sent it, Evan immediately regretted writing what he did. He knew whoever was on the other side of the computer was totally against telling him who he is. And sure enough a few moments later he got a reply.

Re: the Oreo thing

Tree Boy-
Sorry I don't think that's gonna work out :/

Evan typed out a short apology before closing his laptop with a loud sigh. He'd gone overboard again. But he couldn't help it, he really needed to know who this guy was. He sounded like the perfect guy.

The next day at school, Evan found Jared waiting by his locker, a look of excitement in his eyes.

"Can I get to my locker?" Evan muttered, looking down shyly.

"Before I let you go about your business, I should tell you that I may or may not know who you're mystery guy is," Jared raised his eyebrows, trying to contain his excitement.

Evan's eyes lit up for a split second. "Really?"

"Well I've narrowed it down to 10ish people," Jared shrugged. "Meet me in the library during lunch and we can sort it out."

Evan nodded enthusiastically, and Jared shot him finger guns before taking off down the hallway. As Evan put his books away he couldn't help but smile wholeheartedly. He'd never expected in a million years that he'd get a chance with a guy. Ever.

Later in the library, Jared handed him a list of the candidates he'd scribbled out lazily during math earlier.

As Evan skimmed the list, one name stuck out to him. "Connor Murphy? I don't think it's him."
