Richard isn't at college to make friends; he's at college to get a biochem degree. Meeting new people is a pain in the ass, anyway. Blunt to the point of rudeness, Richard often rubs people the wrong way. But then he meets Jesse, a flamboyant dance major who has no trouble understanding that Richard is a total sweetheart—thoughtless comments aside. When Jesse's homophobic roommate makes one too many snide comments, Richard offers Jesse a place to stay. He finds he doesn't miss having the room to himself. When Jesse is there, it feels more like home. 

But when their friends notice how close they are, Richard starts to wonder: is it possible he is in love? With Jesse?
