College was like a wake-up call for most people. Especially the likes of Christopher Owen, who spent the rest of his high school years messing around and pining for the boy he never had.


Having had a frustrating high school year, he decided to dedicate himself to his studies in college.
 
He flew many miles away from home, changed his looks, and hid his real identity from everyone. 

His plans were simple: study hard, pass well, no dating. 

But then he realized two things: life was anything but easy without the backing of his last name.

And... he wasn't sure how long he could last before he jumped his roommate, who was obviously not gay. 

But lust wasn't love, right?

Maybe he could indulge a little? Just a little, I promise.

EXCERPT:

"THAT ARROGANT, GOOD FOR NOTHING, DEMONIC IDIOT! I HATE HIM SO MUCH!" 

"O-kay... what is going on?" A friend asked him, watching as he paced around the room he just entered. 

"After battling for a long time. A LONG TIME!" he breathed heavily before continuing, "I... I confessed to him today."

The other sat up, eyes wide. "For real?" 

"And then... with that stupid lollipop in his mouth, he just looked at me and said Okay. OKAY!" 

Gasps. 

"I didn't even know people said "okay" to love confessions, but he said "okay" to me!"

Meanwhile, while he was there panicking, the one who had been confessed to remained seated where he was in the room. He had not moved an inch from that position since he got confessed to. 
But if one looked closely, they would notice how red his face was, up to the tips of his ears. 

He suddenly chuckled to himself. 
"That idiot," he muttered, looking at the door the other had taken.

That was Sky's response when Chris asked if he'd seen him at the cafeteria.

Chris raised an eyebrow. What kind of answer was that? "Are you kidding me right now?"

Sky sighed heavily, not even sparing him a glance. "Chris, I'd love to stay and chat, but I'm busy."

That hit Chris like a punch to the gut. Busy? He'd thought reactions like that were reserved for other people, not him.

"Busy?" Chris echoed, his voice tinged with disbelief. "Is that a new word for saying you are avoiding me?"

Sky finally stopped what he was doing (or not doing) and turned to face him, his expression drained, like the weight of the world had settled on his shoulders. "I'm not avoiding you. I'm just... under a lot of pressure right now."

"Pressure from what?" Chris demanded, unable to mask his annoyance.

Beginning of an (un)eventful evening...
