"Lex, I don't know how much longer I can do this."
 
I look at him with furrowed eyebrows and a confused look on my face. "Do what?"

He takes two steps towards me before he answers, "Pretend that I don't want you."


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

       Will Wright and Alexis Barker have been best friends since they were born, and have stuck with each other despite going to rival schools. In fact, their families have a long history with each other, their moms being best friends ever since they were little.

Will and Alexis like to say they don't like each other in a romantic way, but everyone around them begs to differ. Even their moms and siblings have been hoping for them to get together since they were tweens.

It's the summer before Junior year, the toughest year of high school, and everything starts to change.

Lest just say, in a small town where everybody knows everybody, word gets around.
