Fairview's star quarterback isn't supposed to look twice at a greaser from the Yards and he definitely isn't supposed to want one.

Fairview's golden boy and he knows it.
Star quarterback, 3.8 GPA, yes-sir-no-sir manners, the letterman jacket, the cherry-red Corvette, the cheer captain girlfriend — the whole package. The whole performance.
Because that's what it is. Every handshake, every arm around Lottie's shoulders, every charming smile is rehearsed. His father Brock made sure Tommy became exactly what Fairview's West Side expects: clean-cut, competitive, dominant, and straight. The problem is that last one's a lie, and he's been white-knuckling his way through it since freshman year.
