**ORIGINAL VERSION, NO LONGER ACTIVE BUT COMPLETED** *spoilers if you are reading current version* Jake Mitchell wanted nothing more than to be the nameless guy you pass on the way to your afternoon chemistry lecture every Friday. Familiar, but unknown at the same time. Just enough recognition to remember, but knowing so little that you make up stories for him in your head. That's the only reason he took the offer from Everett University to be a left-wing forward on their Division 1 hockey team. A forgotten team really. Dead last in their league and close to dead last in the division. It was just something to help pay the tuition, but nothing much to get any recognition. He gets to keep playing hockey, he can afford to go to an out-of-state school, and he can remain unknown. It's his perfect game plan. Or well it was. Until the worst possible series of events happens. The team wins their first game in 13 years, shocked fans catch Jake talking to a popular pro player after a game, and an unfortunate tweet blows up. All leading to Jake's face being plastered on every Twitter feed, Instagram story, and social media outlet that you can think of. His worst nightmare comes to life in real time. Now with the help of his team, he has to figure out how to deal with his newfound fame while trying to get his bachelor's in chemical engineering and win as many damn hockey games as he possibly can before time runs out and he has to run again. Except, maybe this time he won't have to.

per·fec·tion·ist /pərˈfekSH(ə)nəst/ noun 1. a person who refuses to accept any standard short of perfection. Raphael was always expected to be this perfect young man. His parents never accepted anything but perfection so he followed them too. He never shows off his bad sides or has a crinkle in his shirt. These people are called "Robots" they were made to make sure nothing was unbalanced. They were expected to be in perfect condition, with no blemishes, scars, wrinkles, or extra weight. Their homes were to be always perfect and spotless with their yards neatly cut. What happens to the "perfect" Raphael when he meets Hunter. Hunter the exact opposite of Raphael, with messy hair, clothes wrinkled with torn jeans. His attitude towards people is not what the idea of perfection is. Hunter will show a new side of life to Raphael, will he break from his robotic life or will he submit to his rank. ¡WARNING! This is a boyxboy story if you don't like it well bye. This might not have good grammar so please don't harass me with it but give me constructive criticism so I can learn and improve.
