Maxwell is a gay teen boy who has a decade long crush on his childhood best friend, Jay.

But when he was just 3 years old and Jay was 4, Max's mother moved him away to France in order to be with her new boyfriend. During that time, around 2 years later, Max was struck with PTSD from a traumatic experience.

Now, fast-forwarding 15 years later, his mother has found a new guy back in America and now Max has to go stay with Jay and his family. Can he hide his PTSD, sexuality, and his feelings for Jay while being under the same roof, and will Jay ever love him back? Or will Max's new friend from France come and snatch him up?
