“Good morning Charlie! I’m afraid it’s a seating plan. All part of the new system. I’ve sat you on that table at the back, next to Nick Nelson, whenever he arrives. Uh, that won’t be a problem will it?”Oh no, Charlie thought desperately, please, anybody other than Nick Nelson.Clearly, Charlie’s hesitation showed, as Mr Lange looked a tad uncomfortable. “I need someone I can trust with him, please Charlie?”
Everyone at Truham Grammar knows Nick Nelson, including a particular curly haired year 10 called Charlie Spring who may or may not have a secret crush from afar on him. When in Year 10, Nick was outed as bisexual and brutally assaulted on school property, closeted Year 9 Charlie vowed he would never tell a soul he was gay until he was done with school. A year later, Nick is out, popular, and King of Rugby. And Charlie? Charlie is so far in the closet he might as well be in Narnia. NOBODY knows Charlie is gay, not even his big sister Tori. Everything is going to stay that way, until a change in form group arrangements threatens everything.
