I'm a sucker for a good friends to lovers story, and this could have been that.The writing was in the style of a student with an assignment - run-on sentences, misplaced commas (mostly just missing), and much more tell than show, though I don't recall any spelling errors.  It was very stream-of-consciousness, from the point of view of the HS sophomore girl having a last little bit of time before her good male friend goes off to the Navy.  (On a side note, mmmm, love a man in uniform.  lol)By the girl's own admission, she had been pretending to be his friend the entire time, because she didn't want him to know she was in love with him.  I get that, but the way it was written, it seemed as if she really wasn't his friend in any way, and that made the transition a bit more difficult to swallow.I was disappointed that the girl was portrayed as knowing she shouldn't have been driving because she'd drunk too much, but doing it anyway in the hopes of getting into the guy's pants.  Mom grounding her could have been the least of her worries!Extremely short, and free today, so worth a shot for you, maybe.
