In a home built on love, patience, and second chances - Will Halstead and Natalie Manning are raising two boys who couldn't be more different.

Owen Jeffrey Manning, Natalie's son from her first marriage, has Will's discipline memorized and his heart anchored right in the middle of it. He calls him Dad now - because titles fade fast when someone shows up every day and stays.

And then there's Evan Brooks Halstead, Will and Natalie's youngest - the quieter one, the thinker, the soft laugh in a loud house.

From hospital shifts and bedtime talks to broken rules, brother rivalries, and quiet forgiveness, these one-shots capture the life they've built together - messy, warm, and completely theirs.

It's Will Halstead's senior year at Lincoln Grove High School in Chicago and he's determined to make it his quietest; the freshly turned eighteen year old has made quite the reputation for himself during his time at this school, let it be for him being the biggest troublemaker a teacher has ever encountered or for the amount of flings he's had in over four years. As he says though, those days are long gone: the boy is determined to get the best grades he can during his senior year so as to have the chance to go to Medical School; that means, no more funny business nor distractions of any kind. Easier said than done, especially when his best friend Connor Rhodes is throwing a huge party the last day of school and Will just can't pick a girl to go with; or maybe he can, but Natalie Manning thinks he's an asshole and wouldn't go with with him even if he were the last person on Earth. Follow Will and Natalie's journey at Lincoln Grove High School to find out if our dear future doctors have a shot at forever.
