"I know this is going to sound strange, but would you mind being my girlfriend for the next five minutes?"

What happens when two witty, wise, but vulnerable teens meet by accident at a rock club? They fall in love, of course. While both are dealing with the fallout of failed relationships and the infinite hurt that accompanies them, they are questioning everything about themselves, their friends, and their future paths.

Told in alternating chapters over the course of a single night, the narratives create a fully fleshed-out picture of both teens, informed by their love of music, their devotion to their friends, and their clear-eyed view of the world.
