“It had been nearly four hours since Mason Valentin managed to convince his mother to let him stay home from school. Every moment since then seemed to tick away with the weight of eternity. He wasn’t sick exactly. His fifteen year old heart though was very sick. Love sick, that is. Staring out the bay window, his thoughts wandered to Ana Comparetto, the American girl who’d only just transferred that year.

Since the first day Ana arrived, Mason drank in every detail about her: the streaks of purple that shocked through her otherwise long, brown hair, her unfettered laughter that rang above everyone else’s, the incredulous way she would say “What!?” at even the least astounding of revelations. While she longed for something called “Swiss Miss” he longed only for her. She lived just across the way and, gazing towards her house, he ran through all the countless times he’d nearly spoken to her but never quite could. “Coward,” he thought to himself.”
