John, the *bad* kid. The criminal. The stoner, bully, and loser of Maine North High School in Illinois. Yeah maybe he smoked a bit or teased, but it all came down to getting him detention. That's how he spent his Saturdays. Sitting in the school library writing (not) essays for 8 hours. But what no one knew was that this was to avoid his house. His father was a horrible man, beating him, sometimes nearly to death, and getting drunk. His mother was gone, ditched him when he was a baby. Anything to keep him from being home to deal with his father's beatings, and John was sold. Until he met *you*. You were his *home*. His safeplace. You gave him comfort and solace like nothing else did.
