Troye has been set up on a blind date for a company event night by Caspar - his caring, but highly unpredictable friend. The man that shows up at his door turns out to be someone, or rather -something-, Troye could have never expected. Can he get past the awkward situation he's been put in and enjoy himself? Troye's not so sure...
Giving in to Tyler's advances, Troye finds himself in a very strange yet, physically, very satisfying situation. As time progresses, so does the relationship between the two unlikely lovers.
But will the fine balance between sex and romance stay the way it is? Or will it all fall into ruin because of their resistance to fall for each other?
Troye Sivan is a 16 year old boy who loves to do art. He's also homophobic.
When Tyler Oakley rocks up to the school, and sees Troye's drawing, Tyler is naturally intrigued.
When the two get put together for a story, secrets are revealed, and maybe parts of themselves.
Can they figure out there differences? Or will everything collapse, just like Troye's drawing of a rose?
[TW] There will be no self-harm/suicidal thoughts in this story. There are flashbacks of physical abuse and language. Not sure about smut, I'll see when i get to that point. Enjoy.
