    Summary

    At 14, never having been kissed leaves Cherry feeling as if he's at a disadvantage and not enjoying his youth. He lets this slip to Joe, who leans in to kiss him, planting the seed of confusing feelings that only sprout to wither and die when Cherry learns that his best friend is moving away.

    Or so he thought...

    Six years later, he's in college and struggling with his identity. He begrudgingly attends a frat party and who does he happen to run into? No one other than Nanjo Kojiro, his first kiss and best friend.

    Joe spends the past six years dwelling on something that he's sure meant nothing to Cherry Blossom. Why would it? They were kids, right? It didn't mean anything.

    If that's the case, why has he held onto this mysterious letter for the past six years?

    Can these two navigate college and the challenges it brings as they also explore their sexual identity, rekindle a friendship, and quite possibly fan the flames of a budding romance?
