KYLE
Trouble.
That's all I am to people in this town. They're always waiting for me to mess up--prove them right. But I'm happy to keep to myself and mind my own business to survive my senior year at Wyachet High.
Then one rainy Monday morning I meet the dirty blond in glasses. A confusing first encounter turns awkward, but it's short-lived since James Warner has a way of setting me at ease.
Mr. Warner, I should say.
Teach.
A fumbling nerd with a tendency to slip Milton and Shakespeare into conversation, he's a peculiar mix of charm, wit, vulnerability, and protectiveness.
Curiosity leads to intrigue, which leads to...I don't even know anymore. Not a day in class goes by where I don't catch myself admiring the way he fills out one of his tight button-downs...hoping I'll catch his gaze at just the right moment...wondering if he bites his lip after a bad joke just to drive me out of my g*ddamn mind.
I've never been like this over a guy...and he's never been into guys at all.
What am I doing crushing on my straight teacher? And why is it that, the more time we spend together, the more I feel like something between us is changing?
No, it isn't possible, and even if it were, he has too much to lose.
It's trouble with a capital T. We could never cross that line.
We won't. We can't. We shouldn't.
But if only we could...
