He's always been in the shadows, fluffy hair and bandages. Books and bruises. He's always been quiet, no one's ever bothered him so he's never bothered no one. But all the attention is turned on him when a secret gets out. In a small western town in the middle of no where, he's the only (involuntarily) openly queer kid at his cramped and underfunded school. 

But maybe, he's not alone. When he's found crumpled in a corner by one of the schools more popular dumb jocks, they form an unlikely friendship. And fight against the odds. But will this friendship between this kind yet brainless jock and this endearing nerd blossom into more,,? And if so, how will they work together to face the wrath of their parents and classmates the same?
