A teenagers attempts to ask out the boy he likes to their small town's pride parade.

At first glance, nobody would be able to tell that Nathaniel Jean had a problem. Or second glance, or third, or fourth. After all, he had everything. He was a captain of his school's soccer team and one of the top players in the state. He had a big house and money to spend. He had family, he had friends, he had fun, he had faith. He never meant for it to happen. He never wanted to look at another man in the way he should have been looking at a woman. The idea had disgusted him for most of his life - living in a heavily Catholic town with heavily Catholic parents, homophobia was the only response he knew. That didn't change when he first realized that he didn't like girls. No, Nathaniel Jean was still homophobic. He hated the idea of a man sleeping with another man. He was raised on the notion that all gays went to hell, and he believed it. He despised them, and so he despised himself. Nathaniel Jean was more fortunate than most, because help did arrive for him. Help by the name of Lucas Morgan, they boy he'd always known but never known. The boy with big dreams and bigger talent. The boy that changed Nathaniel's life over the course of their thirty-six week long senior year.

By day, Miles Stewart is your below-average high schooler. Flying under the radar by the seat of his pants, trying to get through each day without drawing too much attention to himself. By night, he transforms into Sephora Utah, a drag queen who rules the club scene. His expressive alter ego, under whom he can be fully himself, safe from judgement. Those two aspects of his life have remained seperate for almost two years. But this precarious balance is tilted when his double life is discovered by Caleb Proust, under compromising circumstances. Under threat of losing his anonymity and lifestyle, Miles negotiates a mutual agreement that if one goes down, so will the other. Because, of course, no one knows Caleb is gay. As long as Miles has that to hold over his head, he should be able to make it to graduation. Just so long as he doesn't go and do something really stupid.
