Benjamin, a 17 year-old openly gay high school student in Houston, Texas, falls for Tim, a popular athlete who is initially closeted about his sexuality. Their secret relationship begins after a chance encounter but is fraught with challenges related to their differing levels of comfort with their sexual identities.
As their high school years progress, the pressures of keeping their relationship hidden lead to tension and an eventual breakup. Tim moves away for college, and their lives diverge. During this period, Ben meets Jace Holden, an airline steward, and they develop a stable and loving relationship. However, Tim re-enters Ben's life, now openly gay and seeking to rekindle their romance.
Tim creates friction between Jace and Ben. Eventually, Ben realizes how Tim has been manipulating him into getting back together at the expense of his relationship with Jace. Jace and Ben make up, confirming their commitment to each other, and they get married.
Some time later, Jace abruptly dies, leaving Ben heartbroken. He returns home at the insistence of his best friend, where he reunites with Tim, who apologizes for his past behavior, and the two are left starting a fresh relationship.
