Socrates Johnson hated almost everything about high school. The long winded teachers more interested in test scores than true knowledge. The jocks who would bully him for being too smart. Graduation could not come fast enough.
Only one person made school palatable. The young Alcibiades, with his famous matriarch, polished oratorical skills and handsome demeanor, was among the most popular boys. No one could understand why the future statesman spent so much of his time with the ill-favored Socrates.
In the end, Socrates and Alcibiades found themselves with broken hearts. The hottest love, as they say, has the coldest end.
