Seventeen-year-old Y/N Sterling was born into perfection. With a father who demands excellence, a mother who micromanages every detail, and a sister who set an untouchable standard before her, Y/N has no choice but to shine-on the volleyball court, in the classroom, and in every corner of her life.
The one person who refuses to let her forget she's human? Felix Lee.
The childhood friend turned relentless flirt. The late-to-class, playboy-smile, impossibly-smart boy who makes a game out of getting under her skin. Y/N insists she doesn't have time for him-or his teasing charm. Her parents would never allow it, and besides, she has bigger things to worry about.
Then an accident changes everything. One concussion, one blank slate, one terrifying reality: Y/N doesn't remember her friends, her team, or even the pieces of herself she's worked so hard to hold together.
That's when Felix makes his boldest move yet.
He tells her that he _____________. (no spoilers!!!)
Now, caught between the pressure of who she was and the uncertainty of who she's supposed to be, Y/N finds herself questioning what's real, what's a lie, and whether the boy she swore she couldn't stand has been telling the truth all along.
Perfection was the standard. But love? Love might be the exception.
"Y/N please talk to me, what's wrong? Is it me?"
Y/N leaves their hometown to go study college abroad, meaning they has to leave their best friend Lee Felix. Years pass by and Y/N comes home after finishing school, Felix reaches out to them but they turn him down instantly. What happens next?
- I will be using they/them/their pronouns to be inclusive (and as a person who uses they/them pronouns it just feels wrong not to.)
