Hit or Miss (Aughts Boys)

AUGUST 14, 2005 Ashton Mohren is going into senior year with two wishes: one, get over his ex-boyfriend, pro skateboarder Zeke Williams, and two, take his hockey team to state--and win. And with a strong first line (and a cute kid to sit next to in AP English), both of these wishes seem, at the very least, semi-possible--at least, they would be, if Matt Klein wasn't dead set on ruining his plans.

Because for some reason, Matt doesn't like Ashton--which is a shame, because Matt is the 'muscle' part of their hockey team, and Ashton, who is used to being liked by everyone and their mother, doesn't know how to handle it. How could it get worse? Throw in a violent and antisocial English partner (read: not the cute kid from before), a hockey tournament that changes everything, and the growing desire to tell his hockey team exactly why he hasn't been hooking up with all the girls he wants, and Ashton's senior year is looking to be something a little less than perfect.
