Synopsis

Season 1

The story of Ae (Tanapon Sukumpantanasan), a freshman from Engineering School and also a member of the college football team, who accidentally helps Pete (Suppapong Udomkaewkanjana), a handsome freshman from International College, from his ex-boyfriend who's blackmailing Pete with a clip that exposes his homosexuality to Pete's mother. Ae helps Pete without expecting anything in return, but he doesn't know Pete's already greatly drawn by his kindness and gentle nature and has begun to develop feelings for him. Unbeknownst to Pete, Ae is also drawn to Pete's innocence and immense kindness. But Pete is wary and knows painfully well that he's different than many other boys due to his sexuality. He feels he would rather keep his feelings hidden than destroy his new friendship with Ae. However, with time and patience their relationship starts to grow and they become closer than either of them could have ever imagined.

Season 2

Growing up in a wealthy family, Tin (Phiravich Attachitsataporn) had always enjoyed the privileges that inherently came with wealth. Never denied a thing, he had the world at his fingertips, yet his heart constantly reminded him that there were more important things in life than wealth and privilege. But with people using him as a means to better their own lives, he had little chance to explore the desire of his own heart. Suspicious of anyone who ever tried to get close, Tin had closed his heart off to the world, until the day he met Can (Rathavit Kijworalak). An innocent and rather impressionable young man, Can had never met anyone quite like Tin. An incorruptible soul, Can’s sweetness left an indelible impression on Tin and their friendship blossomed overnight. However, as Tin and Can drew closer, Tin began to realize his feelings for his friend were quickly becoming much stronger than those of simple friendship. Mustering the courage to tell Can how he felt, Tin admitted his feelings for his friend, but Can could not accept them. Heartbroken, Tin must now decide where things go from here. Does he give up on the boy who stole his heart? Or does he hold onto the hope that eventually, true love will conquer all?
