That was Leroy Leonel Borromeo's silent rule ever since he began exploring his sexuality. His family was perfect. His friends were closely bonded. But Leroy's love life? A complete mess. He had never been one for committed relationships. To Leroy, it was always a challenge to keep up with someone who demanded too much. But everything changed when Christopher Titus Reyes made his move, threatening to unravel Leroy's sanity. Naguguluhan kasi siya kay Titus. Urong-sulong. Sweet ngayon, bukas hindi na. In short, walang paninindigan! Sino ba naman kasi 'yang lalaking 'yan? Eh mas matangkad naman siya diyan. But what frustrated Leroy even more was that, despite everything, he could never truly distance himself from Titus. What was it about this guy? Why were they always drawn together, yet still so far apart? They were never certain what they were. Friends, lovers, or something in between. Yet somewhere between holding on and letting go, could they discover what would eventually become theirs?

In short, Ashton is the ultimate opposite of Beniel's type; the least Beniel could do is not fall for him. But he did. Were the looks and intimacy enough for love to bloom, or was love more than just what we see and feel? Were the sayings proved that having a crush on someone was just a phase? What happens when two opposites collide? What could go wrong when you place something where it simply doesn't belong? Like water on fire, or a flower in a volcano.
