Freddie and Lyle have nothing in common. Except, of course, for the fact that they’re each nursing an enormous crush on the other. A crush that they are both completely oblivious about. Lyle is bi and not out at school, and Freddie is gay, and has never been close enough with a person his age to be able to come out to them.
Enter the high school’s all-night lock-in, where the two finally collide. Freddie has never had a real friend, and Lyle is leaving to move to Germany for the rest of high school the following day. When the two boys are thrown together at last, sparks fly, but can their love for each other outlast the ticking clock?
