you're just trying to survive high school, running on caffeine, sheer panic, and three-hour rabbit holes on Wikipedia. what you don't realize is that your entire chaotic existence completely altered jaxon vance's world. the stoic, six-foot-three volleyball captain who barely gives anyone the time of day has been hopelessly in love with his next-door neighbor for as long as he can remember.

while everyone else sees jaxon as intimidating and distant, he's quietly memorized every single one of your tiny habits. he doesn't care about fans, parties, or high school popularity—his only priority is making sure you're fed, safe, and copying his history homework before the morning bell rings. he's head over heels, completely locked in, and secretly losing his mind whenever you get a little too close.

handle him with care—underneath that calm, unbothered exterior, he's completely helpless when it comes to you.
