Mavis Reed is your typical teen girl with a typical life. But there's always something, or someone, that ruins the status quo. For Mavis, it's the infamous wrestling team captain Warren Conway. Warren isn't your typical blockheaded jock. Yes, he's loud and sort of obnoxious, but he keeps to himself most times, other than a few non-coach approved wrestling matches in the back lot. He's an expert at covering up black eyes at this point. When he isn't busy with all that, he usually goes out of his way to piss off Mavis. When that happens, she is... well, pissed, obviously. It doesn't help that they are next door neighbors, and their moms are best friends. What's even more annoying is that their moms are convinced they should date. When Warren's girlfriend cheats on him, Mavis and Warren pretend to date to get revenge on her. Their moms are happy, but half the student population is not. But neither of them are backing out now.

There's this silence between us that stretches longer than it should, and it wraps around my chest like a weighted blanket. My throat tightens. I stare at him like I'm trying to memorise the face of someone who shouldn't exist. A dream made real. My lips part before I can stop myself. "Were you sent by my dad to take care of me?" The question hangs in the air, trembling like the last leaf in autumn. Aiden's gaze softens. His lips tug into the gentlest smile I've ever seen. It's the kind of smile that could mend broken wings. "No" he whispers. "I volunteered." The words hit harder than I expect. Like a punch wrapped in silk. I gasp, air leaves me in a rush I can't reclaim. But before I can fully process what he's just said, he takes a step closer. His fingers ghost over my cheek, brushing away a tear I didn't realise had fallen. And then-he kisses me painfully slow. His hand cups the back of my neck, anchoring me to a moment I never want to end. And just when I think it's over, he pulls away just enough to look at me. His thumb traces the damp trail of tears down my cheek. He doesn't say anything. He just leans in again, and kisses them away. One by one. My tears. My pain. My silence. All kissed away by a boy who didn't come to save me because someone sent him. He came because he chose to.
