At four years old, Darren Kohn starts playing the piano. At five, the violin. At eight years old, he wins his first piano competitions and loses his parents to a car crash. At sixteen years old, Darren gets his first kiss--with his best friend's girlfriend. A little later, he starts competing again. At seventeen, he meets the guy that's been beating him in every piano competition since. The guy anchors him to reality, if only to bicker and berate him, and banishes his impulse control to somewhere unknown. It all goes downhill form there. (Unrequited Love Series Part I)
