Synopsis

Dallas arrives at university still shaped by the aftermath of being shot by his brother years earlier. He is trying to move forward, but the work keeps stacking up, his routines keep collapsing, and every attempt to ask for help seems to leave him more misunderstood than before. Then Adrian enters his life: calm, attentive, patient, and easy to trust.What begins as quiet support turns into intimacy. Adrian helps Dallas eat, study, sleep, and steady himself when everything feels impossible. For a while, it feels like safety. Like being seen correctly. Like finally having someone who knows how to reach him.But dependence has a cost. As Adrian becomes the center of Dallas’s life, care begins to blur into control, affection into possession, and love into something Dallas no longer knows if he can leave.
