Class Distinctions

Kyle and Jonathan were perfect for each other, the two halves that, once together, made a whole. And then one snowy night just before Parents’ Weekend on the campus of Hamilton University, Kyle drops a bomb: he’s breaking up with Jonathan. Follow the couple through the stormy (in more ways than one) night that ensues. Why has Kyle suddenly decided to throw away something so precious and good? The answers lie in their backgrounds, and will gradually come to light as a winter blizzard rages around the young couple. Their tortured paths bring them to the covered bridge where their love had sprung to life on a hot summer day. But will the warmth of that memory and the heat of the love they once shared be enough to outclass the storm, and more importantly, bring them back together?

But he would not be deterred. His sadness needed a big space, and cold right now felt just about the perfect temperature for his wounded heart.

Jonathan traipsed down the hallway, struck by the silence of the near-empty dorm. Most of the students had headed home or to the nearby city of Cincinnati for the holiday weekend. Usually, this corridor, on a Friday night, would have music in all different styles blaring from different rooms—hip hop, classic rock, dance—and many of the doors would be open so people could pop in and out of each other’s room and freely call to their neighbors across the hall. There would be lots of laughter and shouting, guys coming back from the showers, towels around their waists, after getting ready to head uptown to celebrate the beginning of the weekend.
