Sebastian's life has always been a balancing act-between his chaotic home life with a loving but overworked mom. an abusive father on the run, and the pressures of trying to fit in at school. Then there's Levi: cold, analytical, and impossibly difficult to read. While Sebastian thrives on connection and emotion, Levi prefers silence and distance, keeping his feelings buried deep.
When a chance encounter forces them together, Sebastian finds himself drawn to Levi's mysterious, sarcastic nature in ways he never expected. But as the two grow closer, the weight of their unresolved pasts threatens to pull them apart. In a world full of expectation and uncertainty, will they be able to break through their walls, or will they remain trapped in the silence they've built around themselves? Will their friend groups' expectations for their relationship end up being a setback?
With humor, heart, and a little chaos, Sebastian and Levi's story explores love, friendship, and what it means to truly open up to someone-flaws and all.

I charged at her, watching as she didn't brace herself for the impact. Thinking I had caught her off-guard, I felt the swell of rage and pride churning in my chest. I held her collar in my fist, my wand against her throat, knuckles going red. Her expression was shot in shock, eyebrows raised in uncanny petrification. She nabbed at my hand holding her collar, digging her claw-like nails into the top of my hand, her thumb's nail nearly piercing my palm.
"What have you done?"
"Going to kill me, are you?"
"You'll wish I had."
