   Summary

   Murdoc Niccals and Melissa Greene are on completely different life paths when they meet in 1983, yet more similar than they both think. Both misfits with dysfunctional families - they learn that there is some good in this world, despite what they've known all along. They both finally learn to love.

   ...

   This is a 'Dangerous Illusion' AU, where a 17-year-old Murdoc and a 16-year-old Mel attend Sodsworth Comprehensive School in Stoke-on-Trent together.
