Samuel Carl is gay, and deep down he knows that, but he won't admit it, not even to himself. Who could blame him though? His parents have told him since he was born that it was a terrible sin, and since he plays sports, he doesn't exactly have a supportive friend group either. Will he ever learn to love and accept himself for who he is? Nathan Harder is also gay, and he's okay with that, but he's also accepted that most people aren't going to be okay with that, and the best way to get through high school is to stay closeted. But an incident involving his football playing crush, might just ruin those plans. ~~~~~ TW: Internalized homophobia, slurs and discrimination ~~~~~ Started: March 2023
