(bxb) Axel Hunter hates Will Anderson. The two don't exactly see eye to eye, though that's to be expected of the two most popular boys in their high school, both extremely competitive and sarcastic. So, when the baseball team vandalizes the basketball team's state trophies, they catch the attention of the principal once again. As a punishment, the principal and coaches force the two teams to spend time together at a far-away camp during their spring break-"team bonding," they called it. Axel knew he wouldn't last at this so called camp, not when he's forced to room with Will Anderson, and especially not when he starts to become somewhat bearable.

But it's all about to change when Nathan stumbles upon a guy to whom perf*ct is a swear word. °°°° "Perf*ction is an illusion, it doesn't exist. Think about your brother. Can you tell me something that isn't perf*ct about him?" "Well.. He can be a bit selfish sometimes." "Good. What else?" "He lets his friends laugh at me even though he knows it hurts me. And.. He hangs toilet paper the wrong way." "See? He's not perf*ct. He just seems that way, because no one is looking close enough." "But everyone likes him more than me." "Not everyone. I like you a lot more than I like him. You're not perf*ct and you don't try to make people think you are. You're real and I love that about you." °°° 2021-2022

Book 1 I see her run to the bush where my shoe is and screamed "Kat! That's not fair!! You cheated!" I only laughed. She was so adorable, like a kitten. I watched as she kept looking around, chewing on her bracelet in the process. A habit she had ever since I knew her. I felt the limb under me begin to shake. What the hell?! Out of no where I heard a scream. "Kat help me!" I jumped out of the tree and ran as fast as I could, hearing another scream, I ran even faster. Out of no where I felt a big force on the left side of my face as I fell to the floor. What the hell!? I groaned in pain as I sat up and looked at the person in front of me. A man I recognized, the man I met at the playground. He looks the same, like he didn't age at all. But how!? My eyes grew wide as I saw who was wrapped in his arms with a knife to her throat. Kris.
