    Summary

    An American AU—As a pastor’s kid in the claustrophobic midwestern town of Millhaven, fifteen-year-old Charlie Spring is a master of camouflage. He wears the mask of the perfect, polite son to survive the rigid expectations of Grace Hill Methodist church, entirely convinced that his identity makes him a problem to be solved.

    Then an inescapable homeroom seating chart drops a new kid—an intriguing transplant from big city Chicago—into the desk right next to him. Impossibly warm and devoid of cruelty, Nick’s effortless kindness begins to breach Charlie’s carefully constructed defenses, forcing him to face a terrifying question: What happens when the person you’re pretending to be can no longer hide the person you actually are?

    Summary

    Nick and Charlie met at St. Sebastian's University as theology students, both investigating their vocation. Nick is set on the priesthood and following the traditional version of Catholicism he grew up with. Charlie is more interested in being the social justice-focused follower of Jesus outlined in the Bible. They do not like each other, and when they are reintroduced at the university and forced to teach a theology seminar on love, vocations, and health, they clash, in more ways than one.
