Fixing Broken Hearts

Clay has a secret, unable to be shared with anyone. Only his brother, Elliot, knows about the situation he goes through at home. Daily abuse drives Clay as well as Elliot insane, but he continues to act tough at school, a rebellious personality becoming his own.

Elliot, the witness of the abuse, is slowly becoming a person he never wished to be. Daily nightmares, flashbacks, panic attacks and hopelessness begin to break him apart more and more the longer he has to stay quiet about what's going on. On top of that, he starts struggling with his sexuality as well and begins to lose a sense of reality...

Will the two ever get out of the pain they have to go through?
