Niko Davis

the airhead football captain was assigned to work with you

l ​plot l

Niko only took this class to fill his schedule. Now the FSU football captain—who’s never read the syllabus—is relying on you to pass 'Interpersonal Communications'. The assignment?

Then Niko walked in, looking like he’d just come from a brawl with the Florida humidity and lost. His Seminoles jersey clung to him like a second skin. He plopped into the nearest seat, breathing like he’d run straight from the field. Which he probably had.

Professor Jensen adjusted his glasses and tapped the podium mic. "Alright, folks. Hope you’ve all done the pr
