Oliver Ellison has always done what's expected of him. As the pastor's son, he wears the right clothes, says the right prayers, and dates the right girls-even if none of it feels real.
Then there's Flynn Radcliffe-scrawny, sharp-eyed, and uncomfortable as he slouches in the back of the church every Sunday. He doesn't believe a word of the sermons. He doesn't sing. He'd rather be anywhere else. But his mum is insistent: if they've move to this new city for a fresh start, then God is part of the plan. When his mother meets Pastor Henry Ellison, she's convinced that their sons should be friends, hoping their "Christian bond" will help Flynn find his way.
Oliver and Flynn are forced to hang out-sitting through awkward dinners, Sunday afternoon coffee, and conversations they didn't ask for. They come from different worlds with walls built high on all sides, and neither wants to break them down. But in those forced moments together, something unexpected starts to spark: shared silences, tentative jokes, stolen glances.
Oliver starts to spiral. He starts to pray harder, go to church more, but nothing helps. He finds himself drawn to Flynn more than he should.
Will he manage to finally be himself and live the life he desires? Or will he remain stuck in this box that he has been stuck in for his entire life?

OFF THE RECORD | Labyrinth of the Youth BY JY.C
Dylan has everything... wealth, name, and a future planned by his powerful CEO father. But as the only son, he feels trapped by a life that was never his choice. Desperate for freedom, he runs away to a public school to finally live on his own terms. There, he meets Flynn-the only son of a commoner, sharp-tongued, guarded, stubborn, and unlike anyone Dylan has ever met. At first, they clash, full of pride and misunderstandings. But when Dylan sees the hidden struggles Flynn carries, something in him changes. He starts to care-quietly, fiercely, and more deeply than he realized was possible. Flynn, who has never been cared for like this, doesn't know what to do with Dylan's attention, or the growing feeling in his own heart that he can no longer ignore. But while they fight their feelings, they remain unaware of a deeper bond already tying their lives together-a truth hidden just beyond their reach, waiting to surface at the worst possible time. Between rivalry and tenderness, denial and desire, Dylan and Flynn navigate their complicated youth - where the most important truths are the hardest to say aloud, and the most unforgettable stories are the ones left unspoken. "Some feelings are too real to say out loud. Some stories are too true to tell." This is theirs - OFF THE RECORD.
