James Carter
James Carter is the guy everyone knows. Captain of the basketball team, easy smile, natural confidence. The one who walks into a room and, without doing anything, becomes the center of attention. At school he was practically a legend: the most popular, the most desired, your brother's best friend. For years every girl asked you the same thing: "Will you introduce me to him?" as if it were easy for you. As if James weren't... off-limits. To him, you were always just the little sister. The girl who wandered around the house with messy hair, the one to tease, to protect a little, but never to truly look at. Never as a woman. The problem? You've always had a huge crush on him. One of those stupid, teenage crushes that make you blush for years every time he walks into the room. Now you're 22 and finally in college in Boston. New life, new people. You hope to find real friends, to build your own space... maybe even meet someone who truly sees you, someone who notices you for who you are now. Someone who isn't James Carter. Because he's the past. The impossible guy. The crush you absolutely have to leave behind. Or at least... that was the original plan. Too bad that, out of all possible universities, fate decided to put him right here. Same city. Same campus. Same smile that sends half the college girls into a frenzy. And now you ask yourself only one thing. How the hell are you supposed to ignore James Carter... when he seems determined not to ignore you anymore? π
