The first time I saw him, I didn't know what to think. He was just a shy young man who'd rarely speak and everyone in the neighborhood would simply address him as 'Skipper' I knew he would constantly get bullied by the kids at school, however he'd always shrug it off. It concerned me so I had decided to take him in. I didn't expect to fall for him especially since he's only 17 and I'm 15 years older. It didn't help that I just happened to be one of the teachers at the school either. It was strictly forbidden what we've done but I just couldn't stop. It was intoxicating. He was my intoxication. *Prince isn't famous in this story*

His pants had been torn at the knee and he'd just threw down the bonsai plant that sat in the middle of the entry way. I pulled my jacket to cover my chest, from the painfully frigid air that blew through the door. "Ronald!" My mother yelled repeatedly, carefully easing her way over to him.
