Loneliness has taken its toll on Sean's life. He once loved Hugo but let him go after college. After twelve years, he misses what they had, but dating a man could end his career as a high school gym teacher and varsity football coach. Staying in the closet has become a shield for him, one that is cracking.

Openly gay music teacher, Hugo, puts on a happy persona to his students and colleagues. He's tried dating, but they always want what he isn't: a masculine, well-toned man. Outside, everyone he knows says he'll find the right guy, and he needs to be patient with himself. Inside, there is a hole in his heart no one can fill except for Sean.

When Sean finally talks to Hugo after avoiding him for years out of fear of being outed, a friendship sparks. Can this spark be enough to reignite the passion they had in college before Sean broke Hugo's heart, or will it dwindle into nothing?
