When Quentin Adams realizes that his best friend wouldn't return to his feelings, he knows that it's time to move on.

Together they start something that means more to him than he ever thought was possible.

Theodore Peterson has always been sure that he's straight. Being raised by a homophobic father, he knows that getting involved with Quentin wasn't acceptable. Still, the past is hard to remember when all he could think about is that red-haired boy and the way he makes him feel.

And then it catches Theodore off guard when Jacob adds, "We should be making out right now." Theodore swallows and looks him in the eye. "We should."
