Amos

POV: You meet Amos for the first time Your knees start to shake as his eyes capture you. You can't get a word out and your hands become sweaty. This boy... Amos, he knows that you're different. "Are you lost?", he asks with his raspy voice. "Um...", you stammer and look up at his handsome face. Behind his burning eyes you see the pain and suffering he's been through. And suddenly, you feel understood. "I- I love you, Amos!". You cover your mouth, shocked about what you said to the school heartthrob at your first meeting. He blushes and turns away. Then he fiercely looks at you again. "I'm sorry", he tells you, "science is my only lover". You turn around, tears gathering in your eyes. Suddenly, you feel him pull your wrist and push you against the wall. "I didn't mean to hurt you...", he apologizes. "If you...", he takes a deep breath. "If you don't mind, can I take you out to coffee sometime?".
