Summary
Carefully he set that negative down and lifted the paper to see there was another beneath. This one again was a young man, this time posed against an antique car. He lifted a few more negatives out one by one, each a portrait of the same man with various backdrops. The man in a meadow, in an office, leaning against a doorframe — even one in his underwear grinning at the camera. On the edge of each negative printed in slanted, handwritten characters were the initials and date. H.S. 1924.
He quickly but carefully packed them back into the box and buzzed with excitement. He couldn’t wait to develop them to see exactly what had been captured in the images. It was a find that felt like a puzzle to piece together.
H.S. was likely the man in the photographs as well as the owner of the suitcase. Who was he? Why had his suitcase found its way into Niall’s attic? Was he still alive and well somewhere in the world?
A camera, a suitcase, and a relationship forged through time.

Summary
Boy meets girl. Boy falls in love with girl. Boy dates girl. Boy marries girl. Fin.
In 90s New York, when the word 'gay' is an insult and your sexuality puts a target on your head, the story isn't as easy as that for Joey Tribbiani. All he wants to do most days is crawl out of his skin and find a place to hide. It doesn't help that his parents condemn homosexuality to hell. It doesn't help that he still doesn't know who he is. It doesn't help that he might be completely gone for his best friend. It certainly doesn't help that he now has to pretend-date said best friend.
It's messy, and complicated, and has way, way more heartbreak than 'boy meets girl'. And this, this is his story.
