Nights Awake With Porter

Porter Williams doesn't let people in. He's found that most people don't care to know more than what's on the surface.

Evey Chance doesn't get noticed. She could disappear and no one would bat an eyelash; maybe that's why she's so observant.

What happens when Evey is the only person Porter trusts with his thoughts?

"How about a deal?" I ask, surprised by the confidence in my voice. Porter leaned forward clearly interested. "You give me a memorable senior year, and I will listen to you- once a week, twice a week, every night, doesn't matter."
