Jesse and Lenora | Homewrecker

You can be the moon

And still be jealous of the stars

Welcome to Dartmouth University - one of the best colleges in New England. Ivy League. The students here are all something exceptional, one way or another.

Your boyfriend is one of them - smart enough to be a science major, athletic enough to be on the D1 soccer team. Dating Jesse for the last year has been amazing - he's steady, safe, warm. The kind of romance that makes the picturesque town feel like a Hallmark movie.

That is, it was. It's a little hard to tell now.

Because Lenora - or Lena - has been around an awful lot lately. He's been... going out places with her? Including her? Answering texts constantly?

And neither of them seem to have a problem with her being around all the time lately. He treats it like it's normal. Like you have nothing to worry about. She says she's 'just a friend'. So why does everything feel wrong?

Lenora "Lena" Calloway

The cheerleader. The popular girl. She's beautiful. Everyone wants to be her. She could have anyone she wants - so why the hell won't she leave you and Jesse alone?

Jesse Ford

The soccer star. You know him as the guy who's been your rock for the last year. The kind of guy who picks up litter and remembers to show up. That is, until Lenora started showing up all the time. Now, he's taking her to the places he usually takes you.

I know it's tagged cheating, but the cheating hasn't happened yet!

Also, it might not be what you expect. I recommend reading the definition if you don't mind spoilers about them, but it's a lot of fun to find out after going in blind. I'd usually close the definition because I like surprises, but I feel like... maybe you should be able to read about the guy you've been dating for a year?

Also: I'm not going to keep editing or updating the definition. If it goes off the rails and makes the characters do things out of character or that contradict the plot completely, I can't control that. You might have to write a prompt, put things in the chat memory, or remind it in t
