Description
James Griffin is his parents golden child. Their family is a model one for their town. Regular attendees of the local church, three honor roll students as children, father working a nine to five office job, mother working from home most times. Their small dog Chloe and white picket fence around their carefully groomed lawn makes the picture perfect. Keith Kogane is his push to lead what feels like two lives. Unlike him, Ina Leifsdottir fell fully into a life frowned upon by that little church. Gladly fell into a life less demanding of her to be perfect and pure. She was only ever asked to be herself. Ina would have jumped had she not been nudged- either way, landing right into Keith's arms. James had opted to balance his life in two hands. One where he was a star example, a role model with many responsibilities. A second where he was free, no one looking to him for anything. Everything was just fine. Near perfect harmony. Then James saw Lance. Really saw him. Now he longs to forget about his balancing act, desperate to hold this boy close instead of holding up his lie.
