Prologue 

His eyes, his smile, his everything.
How long will it take him to notice me? 
His fingers fly over the keys, tickling each one as he passes it and all the while, that beautiful smile is still plastered on his face. It looks like it will always belong there. Perfect.

How can two people with different personalities come together?
