"I spent years loving Adrian Black, our school’s hockey star, and starving myself to become someone he could choose. When I confessed, he humiliated me in front of everyone and let the whole school turn me into a joke.
Then Sebastian, a masked transfer student, became my seatmate. He never cared about my size or the rumors. He protected me when nobody else would.
As Adrian realized too late what he had lost, Sebastian chose me openly, proving I never needed to change to deserve real love."
