PICTURE PERFECT LOVE

From the first moment I walked into that bizarre “strangers photo shoot,” I knew my life was about to get complicated. Well … even more complicated.

My partner Emmy was there on a dare - a simple, playful challenge from her roommates. But for me, it felt like fate.

Our connection was electric, immediate, and undeniable. With every click of the camera, our pretend love felt dangerously close to the real thing.

But I’m just a poor athlete here on scholarship, while she’s a stunning rich girl destined for the glittering world of politics. Our lives couldn’t be more different.

As graduation looms and Emmy’s path to Washington becomes clearer, doubts begin to cloud my mind, and I can’t help but wonder if what we have is strong enough to overcome the hurdles of our vastly different upbringings.

Can the fleeting connection we found in a moment of make-believe grow into something lasting and real?
