Harry was assaulted on his fourteenth birthday after coming out, which ultimately resulted in the loss of his hearing. When no one was brought to justice for their wrong doings, his family made the decision to move away and escape their hometown. That's when Harry met Liam and Niall. The two overly friendly boys that slowly chipped away at his defences and brought down the high walls he'd worked so hard to build.
Four years later, and Harry's eighteen. He's recovering. Still dealing with the life-altering consequences of the attack, but getting by. Sort of.
His life's mostly back on track, he's got his two best friends and has even landed himself a job working at the local tattoo studio in town. But after having been homeschooled ever since the assault, it's decided that he should return to school for his final year.
That's where he meets Louis. The school's football captain. Popular, sweet, charming and blissfully unaware of Harry's disability. But what if Louis is hiding some secrets of his own, too?
