this is a joke.

Aleks has struggled with it his entire life. It's an addiction that's more dangerous than any drug could ever be. He's broken up family and friendships. He's shattered the people around him that he loves. He just doesn't know how to avoid the call of the void. AU. Complete.

Being new in school is never fun, being new in school and town is a whole other type of torment. Between his home life and now being the new kid in the middle of a school year, Aleks has to learn to balance the two. Can Aleks make friends, fit in, and hide his home life? Or will he crumble under pressure?
