Evan

He spent his life making sure everyone else was okay. The kind of boy who would give away his jacket in the freezing cold, stay up all night listening to a friend's problems, and smile through his own pain just so nobody would worry. His heart, however, had never been as strong as the one he carried inside. Born with a serious heart condition, every day was a quiet reminder that his time might never be guaranteed. Yet he never complained. The only thing he secretly wished for was her. She was the girl everyone admired. Beautiful, popular, and effortlessly loved, but unlike the rumors that surrounded people like her, she was genuinely kind. She remembered names, included lonely classmates, and smiled at everyone as if they mattered. To him, she looked like sunlight after endless rain. He never dreamed of becoming the most popular boy or changing who he was. His only dream was simple: just one chance. One opportunity to tell her how much she meant to him before his fragile heart decided it had beaten enough.
