Being a closeted gay, Brad feels that he's ready for dating to turn his life round to be happier with someone he cares. After coming out to his best friends, they convince him that it's okay to be gay and accept who he is. Fearing that Dakota will look at him differently, Brad keeps quiet to him. Ever since the incident has happened Brad, he's started to like Dakota ever so more with the amount of comfort he's given him for his pain.
