For two years, he had been content with admiring her from afar, but when fate-or rather a cramped collage bathroom-brings them together, he's intent on making her his.

I didn't know what it was, but it was a feeling I could get addicted to. "She told me not to break your heart," he said softly. In that moment I knew what Kelly had known from that morning when I told her what had happened. He could break my heart eventually if he wanted to, and I would probably let him. .........

With a new friendship, unexpected feelings emerge that leave Alec questioning his relationship with his girlfriend, family and friends. (Edited version of my original story 'Detention Boys')
