Adrian Gonzalez knows the painful truth about liking someone you have no chance with-they never like you back and you're left heartbroken. Ever wonder why it's called a 'crush?' But when the hopeless crush he has is on Parker Thompson-nonbinary school heartthrob with an impeccable fashion sense-he can't help but wish things would turn out differently. Staring at Parker from two seats behind in Biology is fine, and praying he doesn't get a boner when Parker jogs ahead of him in gym class is less fine- -but neither are as satisfying as he wishes they were. A class group chat is all it takes to intertwine Adrian's and Parker's lives. And one impulsive, stupid, never-wish-I-typed-it reply is the turning point for Adrian's love story. ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡ ☆Featured on @WattpadSocialMedia DM me reading list ☆Featured on @YARomance Friendzone Doesn't Exist reading list ☆ONC 2021 Longlist Ambassadors Pick ☆ONC 2021 Shortlist ☆ONC 2021 Honourable Mention Based on Prompt 73 Started: 5th February 2021
