“Congratulations, darling.” His mother took his face into her hands and gave Ty a kiss on his cheek. Only a few years ago he would have been embarrassed by such open emotions in front of a crowd, but since his father died at the start of the year, he welcomed every such affection by his mum.

She nodded. “Yes. Her reply was that for fifteen-year-old-girls all the teachers seem like dragons. She remembers her Science teacher who had given her a hard time.”
He chuckled, which earned him a momentary glare from Mia.

Rolling her eyes, she snuggled even closer to him. “You’ll meet her tomorrow when you drop me off at S...
