+ ROUGHLY REVISED + Nathan led two lives of cold stone and shimmering gold; he was the universally loved golden boy at Monarch High with an abusive father and a self detrimental secret, and he did his best to keep them apart; that was until the Loveras dropped in unexpectedly. Being the son of a world-renown actor, it wasn't difficult to become one himself. Marcello shuffled through more romantic partners than scripts for movies, and it was more his poor taste in people than misfortune. Keen to reunite with his childhood best friends, Isaiah and Isaac, he throws himself into Monarch High for a part time gig in mentoring the drama classes. They cross paths when Nathan let his golden mask slip, and Marcello is too curious to let him get away so easily. *Standalone story. Plot does not line up with DII if that story is posted.*
