Even though he'd been plenty smart in English class, I'd never thought Colton had much flare for writing (or that I did either for that matter) until he went first and typed the story of his accident, and how the man who had saved his life had later...

'Alright,' Colton said, looking at the approach to the pool as if twenty metres had become a hundred miles. 'Calm. I can do this.' He was already shaky. 'Don't hold my hand,' he said as I tried to take it. 'You know where you really wanna put it. Do...

When I got to Colton's house and rang the doorbell I knew I might have to explain this to his parents if he wasn't there, or Courtney, his twin sister, because I'd never be able to pass this off as just a social call. I'd never been so thankful when...

Hiding from your family that you're in love is not at all easy. Especially not when your boyfriend keeps making you laugh all the time. That's part of how you know, right? When it's not all about romance or sex or even holding hands: it's all the...

'Well look at this,' my mother said. She was out on the porch, waiting like she had some kind of long distance sense of our approach. 'Are you two boys friends now then? All sorted?'
'We talked about a few things, yeah,' I said, trying to play it...

'You think you're in love,' Colton said, staring at me unflinchingly. 'With me. _Really_ in love? Not just a crush or some kind of infatuation you can't place?'
I nodded, feeling choked and twitchy. 'Yeah. Despite everything. I love you Colton...

Five days went by and life went back to normal. Just as he'd promised, Colton wasn't attending classes anymore.
On Wednesday I decided to run past the skate park. He wasn't there. Nobody was.
On Thursday I reluctantly texted Courtney just to ease my...

Never make a bet with your fox boyfriend where if you lose you have to tell him how you discovered one of your fetishes. And if you do, don't forget about it only to lose it at the worst possible time.
How Colton even won was beyond me, considering...

The night Rocco had gone to senior prom I'd stayed well out of the way. I had a Cardinals game to go see, which helped. I'd been glad, because I somehow knew it was going to bring out the side of Mum that made us all cringe, and it would be easier if I...

I found Colton at the skate park a day after Courtney made me her date. He'd been alone and practicing, just like I'd hoped. Rocco had told me bravery started with a small step sometimes, so here was an idea: just get Colton talking to me.
He stopped...

I knew my senior prom was going to be a disaster when the most popular girl in the school asked me to it.
Courtney Vincent was a fox. Silver fur, tail with black tips, eyes that said 'you kiss these lips and you'd better be brave.' She wasn't a...

The whole family were waiting for me, as if wanting to applaud me after spectating. Except Felix, who wasn't there at all.
Mum saw me looking around and said 'Colton took him to get a soda and have a little talk. Are you okay?'
So much for Dad...
