Thank you for taking the time to read this lil' fic of mine! I've had these characters buzzing around my mind (Particularly Mars) for months, and only now have I had the confidence and time to bring them to life! Lemme tell you a bit about them:

Side Note: Two of the characters, Amandeep and Mars, refer to their mothers in another language - Amandeep says 'Mataji', the Punjabi term for 'mother', and Mars says 'Ba', the Bambaran term for 'mum'.
IN NO WAY is this meant to be offensive, and if these terms are incorrect, please feel free to say, I won't be upset :)
