Not one for attention, Austin has preferred a quiet life within the otherwise chaotic and cruel confines of high school that is fueled by pubescent hormones and pointless drama. For years, he has maintained that normalcy until he wakes up one day to a whirlwind of misunderstandings that he can't take back that was caused by a mistake his sister made. Within the misunderstandings, one new entity in his life --that is not by design of his own, springs up and somehow weasels his way into Austin's world. Noah. Noah is a new boy in town whose mission in life seems to be centered around driving Austin mad! He himself is shrouded in mystery and, despite his erratic mannerisms, something about him effortlessly pulls Austin to him as time goes by that even Austin's resistance cannot fight against. It's an innate need for freedom and affection that connects them in an otherworldly manner; which becomes their saving grace as they battle both present and past demons on a quest to find happiness.
