Her Sweet Summer Breeze
Interracial Romance
On the first day of high school, I inform my best friend that I love her by taking her notebook, drawing a big heart, and writing Kade Love Breeland 4 Ever inside.

Summer is upon us and we both enroll in the reading program held at the Spindale Library. This provides a perfect cover for our real intentions.
We post up at a table in the corner of our library. Bree is reading Little Women, a Jane Eyre novel and I’m reading Tom Sawyer, a Mark Twain Masterpiece. Well pretending to read while we are playing footsies under the table.
I can’t focus because each time her foot touches mine I think of the Little Big 3-letter word. I’m a 15-year-old teenage boy with raging hormones.
I’m so thirsty I want to go to the water fountain, but I’m unable because of the embarrassing tent in my shorts. Every movement she makes I think about…
