Unexpected Attraction

Jess finishes out her military contract, and goes home for the summer to figure out what's next. She finds her hometown a bit depressing, at least in terms of the eligible men in her area.

She overhears her sister Becky on the phone, eavesdropping while her friend Alice callously explains why she broke up with her boyfriend Alex. He's too big, and and he didn't last long enough.

"Hmm..." she thinks to herself, her ears burning. She always thought Alex was the cream of the crop when it came to the guys her sister's age, and wonders if a little training is all he needs.

The tea is too hot, and she takes action by reaching out to him. He's freshly single, it's the middle of summer, and she has nothing else going on. Alex responds right away, confessing he's had a crush on her for as long as he can remember.
