The brunette rolled his eyes for the umpteenth time at Sullivans actions, looking out of his peripheral vision, then stepped into the redhead's personal bubble.
He stretched his hand out toward the redhead, looking down at the curly haired teen, rolling his sucker to the corner of his mouth.
"The names Jasper, and you are?" Jasper asked, talking through his teeth due to the blue sugary sweet, as the red head looked at the brunette's hand, blanking out for a millisecond.
The red head reached out and grasped Jasper's hand, giving it a firm shake making sure to give eye contact to the spooky teen.
"Sullivan Boyd."
Then they both released, Jasper backed up to put distance between them. He dipped his hands into the front pocket of his black hoodie, laughing to himself.
"Figures." He stated, kicking some pebbles away from him. He sighed heavily, looking at Sullivan while moving his fringe out of his eye. "Anyway, I'm terrible at names, so I'm gonna call you Ivan, for short."
Sullivans face heated up instantly. He never had a nickname from anyone besides his mother, who called him Sully when he was younger. "O-Okay." The red head stuttered out smiling a bit.
"You don't talk much do you? Weird, but I like it." Jasper stated answering his own question.
A sheltered Christian red head meets a very blunt emo teen for the first time, but what happens when he discovers hidden secrets and stomach twisting feelings for the tall teen?
Will their relationship grow into something more, or wither away?
Follow Sullivan Boyd through this strange and mythical journey, as he discovers things no one would ever dream of, with Jasper Gray.

Jasper Lucas is a shy, sweet and easily blushing, 17 years old student who loves to skateboard with his friends and spend time with his best friend, Travis Henderson. He is gay and his family hasn't accepted the fact and treats him coldly. His older brother Nicholas, however, is proud of him and loves him dearly. Thanks to Travis and his burning enthusiasm and persistence, Jasper's life is now brighter and happier. Thanks to Travis, Jasper has met and made new friends at school, which all like him and call him "cutie".
But, what comes next?
Jasper has an incredible and huge crush on Dmitri (Dima, for his friends) and he doesn't know what to do. Jas is too shy and timid to take matters in his hands. Perhaps he needs some advices from Travis and his well-known dirty mind...
Oh boy, what to do?
Dima is completely straight and horses around with girls, never getting serious about any of them; he is an outgoing, funny and easygoing Russian guy of 18 years, which resembles a huge blonde bear. He loves to play ice hockey with his best friends, to snowboard and sometimes to skateboard. He loves "Star Wars" and so does Jasper, and that's how their friendship started.
Dima likes very much Jasper and his sweet and calm side, he finds himself wanting to help the little kid when he sees him down or sad.
Dima likes Jasper, but just as a friend.
Or is Dmitri only terribly dense?
What will take Dima to realize Jasper isn't just a friend? Maybe a push from his friends, especially River and Travis. Maybe an unexpected rival; a new classmate who likes Jasper and keeps trying to flirt with him. Did I say one rival? Oh, my bad. Two new unexpected rivals.
Will all of this make the funny grizzly finally realize he likes the cute koala more than a friend?
