Elliot Winslet West, a 19-year-old B-list celebrity and nepo baby, finds himself thrust into the spotlight after joining a popular series. During an interview with his co-stars, he learns that fans have been shipping him with his on-screen counterpart, Theo Allen Hex. Dumbfounded and disgusted, Elliot doesn't know what to say-until Theo, always professional, smoothly answers the question for him.
Theo, also 19, is a talented actor who's been in the industry long enough to handle his public image and damage control with ease. Unlike Elliot, who's used to privilege and being pampered, Theo's hardworking and humble. Forced to act together, their personalities clash, but as they spend more time building on-screen chemistry, they begin to feel a connection off-screen as well.
As the world watches, Elliot and Theo must navigate their growing attraction amidst the pressure of their roles, their fans, and their own complicated feelings.

Tycho Black was struggling with a few things in his life with no one to save him but himself. He didn't really care though, considering it was easy to block out unwanted things. Whether it was thoughts, physical or emotional pain, or anything else- at the end of the day none of it mattered to him. He didn't care that he could possibly feel some sick attraction to men, even though he had never felt attraction before. He didn't care about going home and being met with nothing but fear. And he certainly didn't care about Alexei Abbots or the other older and mysterious men Alexei was associated with. Alexei in particular, though, was just a little weasel that wouldn't leave his mind.
He thought he could block him out like every other person, like every other male that made him think in such a bad way.
But somehow, for the first time, he couldn't force himself to forget the expression on the boy's face when his fist collided roughly with his jaw.

Alexei Abbots was happy. Really, really happy.
He was open, free, and accepted by the two best women he had ever met who completely turned his life around. Not only was he welcomed with open arms by his two mothers, but he was also met with the arms of two men he had a mutual fondness for: Riley Worthright and Xavier Mendoza. He was on top of the world, and his not-so-gentle past wouldn't change that. Neither would Tycho Black, the aggressive bully on campus who seemed to get off on being a homophobic a-hole.
