Summary
Sebastian loves coding… Unfortunately coding doesn't pay much, not nearly as much as his far more lucrative gig as a camboy.
But no one knows about that. Except for Haley, his partner in crime and the reason behind his success with pictures and videos.
He's worked incredibly hard to create a mysterious online persona. Never showing his face. Tempering how much he interacts with his fanbase online, and never EVER considering talking privately with a subscriber.
His life has been one of routine for a long time and he’s liked it that way.
But something is changing. Things are shifting. Starting with a new guy who’s just moved to town.
And… since when does Alex want to be his friend… And since when does HE want to be Alex's friend in return?
He starts streaming instead of just making videos, trying to find and fill that feeling of closeness and intimacy that has started aching in him… and the more he does it and the more he engages with his community the more the lines blur between what he said he’d never do and what he needs and craves more than anything.
