I read this because of comment swap. It's not the type of story I would normally read, but I'm actually really enjoying it. Aside from a couple grammatical errors it's solid writing. And I'm definitely going to keep reading!
I really like the story, I think it's cute. Not the whole Alex's family being stupid, but the relationship between Alex and Zane. As for the picture I suppose I'd have to see the one you're thinking of changing it it. I like the picture now, but if you have an alternative I'd like to seem my options before deciding. Keep up the awesome story ^_^
