The Boy in the Background

"Part of the problem with the word "disabilities" is that it immediately suggests an inability to see or hear or walk or do other things that many of us take for granted. What of people who can't feel? Or talk about their feelings? Or manage their feelings in a constructive way? What of people who aren't able to form close and strong relationships? And people who can not find fulfillment in their lives, or those who have lost hope, who live in disappointment and bitterness and find in life no joy, no love? These, it seems to me, are the real disabilities."
- Fred Rogers

Anthony Antra is a typical high schooler, with above average grades and a typical home life, with his mom and younger sister. Oh, and he sits in a wheelchair.

Ethan Brookend shows up in the middle of the year, and he's immediately drawn to Anthony. They have a rocky beginning, but will it ever lead to something more?

Anthony's best friend, Beck Coppurn, has a long term girlfriend, Bree Ordan, but their parents hate their relationship, and have been working to break them apart for years. The pair want to move in together as soon as they graduate, but they need to find a way to get around their nagging parents.
