Even at an allegedly gay-friendly high school, being out isn't easy, not if you play a sport. Remy didn't just play a sport, he lived for a sport. He bled crew and rowed with his best friend, Mikey. He'd known him forever but was a year ahead of him in school and crew, varsity to his JV. But then something changed. They were on the way to a regatta in San Diego and suddenly they noticed each other. Remy don't know what happened. They'd changed in front of each other in the locker rooms all the time at school. But Remy'd never looked and suddenly all he could do was stare.

Remy thought Mikey felt the same, yet somehow Mikey didn't want a relationship. Whatever, Remy didn't have time for drama. They had a major regatta to prepare for. They make apps to help lonely young men to find temporary companionship, and let's just say, Remy enjoyed the summer before his senior year. Then everything caught up with him and it all came apart.

Mikey was furious, but if he didn't want a relationship, why was he angry? It turned out there was a price for playing around, and when Remy got sick, he had to wonder, where would Mikey be?
