I loved it. Honestly, I don't know of any constructive criticism I can give except that you should try to make Alex seem like a real person; he seems too shallow and unsympathetic. The plot is so sweet though.

I fancied your Earth 2 stories enough to take a peek over at your Original works.

This story is so beautiful in its simplicity. There's a lot to love about it, and I felt very confident in your ability to walk me through the entire tale without dropping the ball.

I saw Trevor through Heather's eyes; I felt and lived her curiosity and her tentative attempts at connecting with him. Felt her shock and sadness, too, at Alex's revelation.

I particularly liked this line:

'But I said nothing; instead I fell silent again, afraid of shattering the tenuous peace between us.'

Just lovely. Thanks so much for sharing.
