Overview

Hayden I’m the fun one. The loud one. The overly opinionated one with no filter. I’ve been unapologetically me since day one, and it hasn’t been easy. Kicked out of my home when I was sixteen, I chose to be alone rather than not be my true self. I found my family now and a job I love. I have everything, and yet . . . I’m still an outcast in so many ways. Tristan I’m not fun. I’m far too quiet. I keep to myself. I don’t really have a reason for it. I had a loving family who was loud enough for me to fade into the background. And then, I stumbled into a friendship with the boldest human I’ve ever met. Beautiful and strong. He confuses me. He challenges me. He makes me want to come out of the shadows and discover who I want to be. He may have been shunned by his family, but they didn’t deserve him. Hayden was meant to shine—not to be cast out by anyone. He makes the world brighter, and not even I can resist it.
