Nineteen, not out, and secretly into the guy who took the only open seat in his astronomy lab. The hottest guy he's ever met. Older, unbothered, straight as far as Cole can tell. A slow-burn, first-time story told across one semester, intrusive thoughts included. He kept saying I owe you one. Neither of them knew where it would lead. Fifteen chapters. The complete story.
