“The…” My mind is racing. It’s too much. The Volos family? I went to high school with… I mean, my first boyfriend—only boyfriend—was…

Try as I might to fit him with the shy, skinny kid I once knew, it just doesn’t make sense. And it’s not because this compact, confident, irritatingly charming specimen of man meat looks like he just stepped out of the pages of Drool magazine. It’s not because the way he looks at me makes my knees tremble and my pupils dilate. It’s not even because I thought I was going to spend the rest of my life wishing things had gone differently with the only person that’s ever occupied that part of my existence I tentatively call love.
