In private, they burn together. Passionate and hot they feed off one another and only grow closer as time passes. In public, they are strangers like oil and water, never mixing and pretending the other doesn't exists. Oliver has been dating Conner in secret for months. When they are alone together, Conner is sweet and carrying. Every man's dream of a perfect boyfriend and lover. However, in public and at school he pretends not to know who Oliver is. He pretends like the marks around his neck are not his fault, like he hasn't been in his bed. Conner even goes so far as pretending not to know Oliver's name in front of his friends. Why does Conner deny the attraction they both feel? Why does he keep pushing Oliver further away in public, but closer in private? There is a secret these two must uncover if they want their happy ever after, and time is running out.
