The Virtual Affection | #Wattys2018
27 parts Complete Sarah Allen is an ordinary teenager with a simple life of sitcoms and romance novels until one night she gets a text from her bad-boy crush, Dave Rodriguez.
Apparently, Dave has mistaken the cell number of head cheerleader Caroline Roberts with Sarah's. Desperate and craving to converse with the supposed Romeo of her life; and also knowing she would never get a chance otherwise, Sarah does the stupidest, dumbest, craziest, whackiest thing a girl can do (and regrets it almost instantaneously). She texts him back, pretending to be Caroline.
This goes on for days. Months. Something that started out as an embarrassing mistake grows into much more than Sarah could have imagined. They text till midnight, talking about their favourite authours, constellations and mullet rock. Never did Sarah expect their tastes in music and coffee flavours to match, let alone Dave falling in love with her.
Should she tell him the truth? Dave might never forgive her, but worse, he might not be the only one in love...
