Overview

"Doesn’t everyone have fantasies? Some play them out in their heads like a movie. Some write them down. What’s the difference?"

Kian writes stories he shouldn't. First of all, they're not the kind of stories you want your parents to read. Second, they involve him and his roommate, Ray. Kian has had a crush on him for months—but to ask him out? That was something Kian didn't have the guts to do.

One day, after spending the entire night turning an innocent, friendly conversation on the fire escape into a mischievous dream on paper, he forgot his notebook on his desk when he went to university. Nothing could have prepared him for what he found when he returned home: Ray was deeply immersed in the story, clearly enjoying himself.

Until Ray notices he's being watched, and they both must realize that their relationship will never be the same again.
