Colin Hunt, a vivacious and outspoken art student, is a comic-reading, anime-loving, all-around geek. What he lacks in size, he most definitely makes up for in personality. But things have been tough for him lately. A heavy workload. A showcase to prepare for his final. A sick mother to take care of. Ever the optimist, he's more interested in finding someone to have some fun with rather than finding anyone serious. For Dexter Erikson, life has been difficult ever since an accident left him in foster care and cost him part of his arm. After discovering music therapy, he found an outlet for his pain and the perfect way to express himself. Now, sporting tattoos and piercings, Dexter is the lead singer of a pretty kick-ass punk rock band and owns the stage like it's nobody's business. He’s also goofy and dorky, shy and bashful, with a bad habit of falling in love yet a horrible fear of commitment. So what happens when vivacious geek meets shy punk rocker? The first answer is a lot of sex. The second answer might bring both Colin and Dexter to places they never dreamed possible.

Rock and Roll Chose Me

“D-Dexter…I wasn’t…” A moan cut him off, like it was impossible to go on talking without making the noise first. “I mean…I wasn’t too mean before, right? I…” Colin whimpered again. “I didn’t…tease you too bad…”


Dexter snickered. “Worried, are ya, Colin?”


Colin whined through another moan. Dexter would let him sweat it out a bit, but he’d treat him right. Make it last long to let him forget his stress just for a little while.


Sunbeams scattered happily through the high windows of the fourth-story loft. Small flecks of dust danced within the soft cones of illumination glowing in their own little world.


Morning. Busy, but not overly so. Footsteps and soft voices and cars that rolled over concrete streets. Brooklyn sounds that washed over the borough in gentle susurrations. Dexter always found a sense of calm at this time of day. Well, when he needed to be up.
