Sentinel-alpha Sherlock Holmes has no interest in finding an omega-guide, but having pushed his body to its limit he no longer has a choice. He dreads being saddled with a mate. Guide-omega John Watson has just lost his family and his chances at joining at the army. He has nothing left but a desolate future at some alpha's side. If only they knew.

/jux·ta·po·si·tion/ n. the fact of two things being seen or placed close together with a contrasting effect. John Watson, sixteen-year-old new boy at St. Bartholomew's School, is assigned resident genius and nuisance Sherlock Holmes to be his roommate. While contending with schoolwork, exams, sports, friends, foes and family, they are entangled in a web of mysteries that soon seem far from coincidences. Will they be able to work out who is behind them - and, scarier still, will they admit that their friendship has grown into something more before it is too late? [TL;DR: Boarding school AU. Our protagonists wind up as roommates.]
