He was all that I wanted and all that I had. 

Alex Lewis Caulfield. My boyfriend. 

He was gorgeous, stunning, beautiful. And he was mine. All mine. 

Or so I thought. 

My life was being ripped apart bit by bit. The picket-fence dream I had was fading along with my hope.

I had been robbed of my teenage years. 

And I wanted them back. 

I wanted to stay out late, party all night, wake up with a hangover, feel buzzed as hell, kiss a stranger, drink some beer... Do all the things I never even dreamed of doing. 

And who better to do it with than the boy with the tatted jeans and bloodshot eyes?
