It was supposed to be a simple assignment.

Go undercover as a gothic high school student.

Identify the local gangs and their supply pipeline.

It wasn't supposed to get this complicated.

I wasn't supposed to fall in love.

And definitely not with my teacher.

She was my student. 

I should have stayed away. 

I tried to stay away from her. 

Tried to fight my feelings. 

A lot of good that did. 

Now, I might have lost her... 

For good.
