June 2003 in Sheffield. Two 17 year olds, Charlotte Baker and Alex Turner. One weird love story.

"Why'd you come here every day? Cigarettes don't run out overnight." Alex Turner is in his last year of school, perfectly ready to let it pass by like a grey train with no intentions of jumping on. He doesn't expect anything interesting to happen in his very mediocre life, and that's when a girl dressed like his favourite worst nightmare waltzes on in and flips everything upside down.

"You're drunk. You're always drunk. You can't keep coming here." "I didn't know where else to go."

"Secrets I have held in my heart are harder to hide than I thought..." AM AU
