Parker Schuester never planned on coming back to Lima. After years living in New York, he returns to McKinley High to stay with his uncle Will, hoping to keep his head down and figure out who he is away from the noise of the city. But the past doesn't stay quiet for long.
Quinn Fabray, once his closest friend, is nothing like the girl he remembers. She's distant, guarded, and carrying a secret heavy enough to make her break in front of him. When she finally lets herself fall apart, Parker becomes the first person she trusts, the first person she fears disappointing, and the one person she never expected to lean on again.
As Parker settles into life with Will and tries to rebuild his place in Lima, he and Quinn find themselves drawn back together, quietly, carefully, and in ways neither of them saw coming.
