Summary
He is thinking of Alex. He is thinking of him when Percy asks if he has done it. He is thinking of him through every page. He is thinking of him now where he stands in the park opposite his store.
He is thinking of him because he does not understand why he did not kill him.
or: the one where Henry is an emotionally stunted vampire with a strict code that only allows him to feed on criminals, and Alex is a bookstore clerk wrongly accused of being one that he cannot commit to killing.

Summary
Callum and Ben were born on the opposite sides of a broken town. A town separated by a barren wasteland surrounded by steel barricades to make sure the two sides were kept apart. When both boys attempt to escape from their own realities and end up there, they find that even in the most desolate places something beautiful can be born. Despite their differences they find comfort, solace, friendship and eventual love with each other.
However circumstances mean they are torn apart and everything they built together broken. Years later they return to their hometown and come face to face with each other; both still bearing the scars of all that has happened to them. Can they finally face their demons and lay the ghosts of their past to rest? Or are some wounds just too deep to ever heal? Can they break down the barricades built around their hearts and let each other in again? One thing they both know is that they need to face the past before either can fully look forward to their future.
