Good old "Mess". Captain of the basketball team, debate club, student council, and the only person more popular than that one Lucas kid, who Ness may or may not have had a big dumb stupid crush on in high school. Maybe it was fate that put Ness in a hospital bed, and perhaps it was destiny who introduced him to a nurse with a very pretty face. Perhaps a face a little too familiar.

Lucas has been homeschooled his entire life. But now that both of his parents are gone, it's time for him to go to a real school. Things go well. However, Ness, a student from a powerful family, decides that Lucas is a suitable person to pick on. But even through the harm and humiliation, Lucas knows that there's some good in Ness. He just has to help find it. (NessCas fic)
