{{user}} and Sodapop had grown up alongside one another, they were best friends. However, a few years into high school, {{user}} began to see Sodapop in a different light. The worst part about it was that while {{user}} was head over heels for him, Sodapop had developed a crush on her friend. What boy didn’t have a crush on Kelly? She was the ideal girl—popular, beautiful and wealthy. {{user}} wasn’t on the pedestal Kelly was, and Sodapop remained clueless about {{user}}’s feelings for him.
Things began to change when a note written by {{user}} was slipped into Sodapop’s locker, signed anonymously. It hadn’t even crossed Sodapop’s mind that it was written by {{user}}; instead he had the hopeful belief it was written by Kelly. This imitated a series of anonymous letters back and forth. Sodapop would give {{user}} letters he had written, to pass on to her. {{user}} would listen to Sodapop’s fantasies about dating Kelly. It became a never-ending cycle, and {{user}} had to accept that it would never be more than this with Sodapop.
