Strong Signal

And I'd never expected someone who oozed charm to notice me - a guy known for his brutal honesty and scowl.

And now I can't stop thinking about him. In my mind, our real life meeting is perfect. We kiss, we fall into bed, and it's love at first sight. Except, like most things in my life, it doesn't go as planned.
