You never know as much about yourself as you think you do. That's what Michael Jackson discovers when what he thinks will be an ordinary pizza dinner reconnects him with someone he thought he'd never see again.

 

Chris was an clumsy, pimply, hopelessly romantic 18 year old when they last met. But 30 years does a lot to change someone, and Michael can hardly believe that gawky teen turned into the handsome, charismatic, fashion-designer he now knows.

 

Harder still to believe is that Chris still remembers the one night that a condescendingly straight Michael said yes to the world's most awkward date. He swears he fell in love all those years ago, and never got over it. Now he's back for a second chance, which makes no sense to Michael at all.

 

Why would the world's up-and-coming star of fashion still be head over heels for a aging, traumatized, needy, demanding, and straight pop-star?

 

Michael has no idea. That's why he's so surprised when Chris' gentle strength and presence begins to turn his life inside out. Never has he found someone who could accept him so completely and make him question everything he thought he knew about not only sex, but also about love.
