Prologue: Out of place

Gay/ɡeɪ/-light-hearted and carefree. Happy.

Levi Forrester is not.
Levi is broken. His mother is dead, his father, an abusive alcoholic. He seeks something beyond his scrawled out song lyrics and sketches, something validating, something real.

Darby Stevens is an outlaw, a rule- breaker, broken too. A different foster family every month and a bad habit with a can of spray paint, life is a losing battle, but he's willing to hide it all behind a smirk and a louis vuitton wallet.

What happens when two broken souls find each other? Are they willing to risk it all in the name of love? To let go of every secret weighing them down? Maybe they might even make it. Together alone.
