Oliver Pierce and Asher Williams have known each other for years as their dads work together. Secretly, both young men have been crushing on each other yet, they each believe they don't stand a chance with the other and grow apart over the years. 

But then a chance does present itself. Asher is being transferred from a private school to Oliver's high school. After the school principal finds out the two of them have a history, he asks Oliver to be the one to show Asher around the school, even putting their schedules together so that they have the same classes.  

As the two of them rekindle a friendship that they thought they'd lost, it soon becomes obvious that their feelings for one another have never died. The more time they spend together, the stronger their feelings become. They both secretly want the friendship to morph into something more, something that they have only ever dreamed of ...

But the outside world is waiting for them .... Ready to keep them apart. Ready to throw obstacles at them. 

And ready to judge.

Watching his best friend, Oliver, fall in love with his old friend, Asher, almost breaks Jenson Archer's heart. He's only ever had eyes for Oliver, but has never admitted it out loud. Not even to Oliver. Choosing to stay close to Oliver rather than push him away, Jenson tries to support Oliver's relationship with Asher, while secretly wishing for a relationship like theirs for himself. Caleb Tennyson believes he's in love with Asher. After Asher moves to a different school and almost breaks Caleb's heart, Caleb's still determined to keep Asher in his life. He even tracks Asher down and declares his love for him, all the while knowing that Asher is in love with Oliver. Both Jenson and Caleb are too busy trying to love someone that isn't meant for them, almost obsessing over their friends, that neither of them are prepared for when they meet each other by chance one day ... and are totally blown away. As life moves forward, they try to navigate their new relationship while being apart from each other at college, attempt to overcome jealousy and addictions and then watch from the sidelines as their best friends and former crushes marry each other. Will their own relationship stay the course?
