[Ch. 1] Sometimes, things get tough. Tough enough to the point where it's too much to handle and Alek is just having one of those days. [Ch. 2] Chloe has bad days, too; ones caused by a certain British Mai. The problem is, she has no idea how to deal with it.
Alek knows he's a walking cliche. He fell for his best friend, Chloe. . .who's taken by a college guy. Most of the time, anyways. He's just not sure how much longer he can keep up being her "friend."
[Written in 2nd person from Alek] You have an extremely hard time trying to understand what this is, how you feel - is this terrifying or exhilarating? You don't understand why it's her, why she's the one who does this to you. But it keeps happening. And the only thing you can do is let it.

"He couldn't let her go into that house while the flames were taking it down, maybe even giving a life up. It was selfish, that he was very much aware of, but he just couldn't let her do that. Now he knows it was probably the worst mistake he could have made." Alek makes a mistake that he doesn't know how to fix.
