Blurb:

After the heart flutters, a secret crush comes true. But it isn't all dazzling fireworks. - Wen Er

When Wen Er first met Jing Xu Ye, she was shivering miserably in the chilly air-conditioning of a high-speed train, clutching tissues as she sneezed again and again. The long-legged boy beside her furrowed his brow, his expression darkening. She felt cold, but also frightened.

To her surprise, the boy held back and held back, then tossed her his jacket at the very last second before he could lose his temper.

She thought this warm and dazzling encounter would be nothing more than a passing moment between strangers.

Ten-odd minutes later, she learned his name was Jing Xu Ye. In the years that followed, as he kept teasing and flirting with her, Wen Er tried to hide the feelings she'd developed as a girl.

When she could stand openly by Jing Xu Ye's side, Wen Er thought with conviction: As long as it's not Jing Xu Ye, I won't back down.

So later, when Jing Xu Ye grew estranged from his parents, even falling out with them over his university major and ideals for the future, and grew anxious about a relationship that had come too soon, Wen Er wrapped her palm around his large hand and said, word by word, "As long as you don't let go first, I won't either."

In just two short years, the boy who had once declared on the Fifth High School field, "I'll only drink water from Wen Er, not from any other girl," brushed his fingertips over the water bottle in her hand and reached straight for another girl.

At that moment, though the basketball court was bustling and noisy, Wen Er felt an immense desolation engulf her.

She turned away. The unopened bottle of mineral water she'd been gripping tightly clattered into the trash can.

Warnings: Many personal liberties have been taken; treat this as an alternate universe and don't compare it to real life. School setting in the first half, urban setting in the second. Both leads are each other's first and only, happy ending, with a mild groveling arc.

Theme: As the years go by, may our dreams remain unchanged, and may all we see be beauty and good times
