Marius has always treasured his friendship with Lou, the one person who has been a constant in his life, but when his feelings quietly deepen into love, he becomes terrified of risking everything they've built. Choosing silence over confession, even as subtle moments, lingering looks, soft touches, and near-confessions, begin to blur the line between friendship and something more. As the tension between them grows, Marius is forced to confront the possibility that his fear of losing Lou might be the very thing that keeps him from discovering whether Lou feels the same. Enjoy this slow burning love story between two 16 year old boys that discover the love they've always had for each other, was something much stronger.
