Yours to Hold

Zachary Baker isn't your average junior in high school; he suffers from scoliosis, a condition that makes his spine curve from side to side. His worsening condition means that he spends a lot of time at the Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children in Wilmington, Delaware finding out about different kinds of treatment options. Besides his physical problems, Zack's high school career is made more complicated by the fact that he is gay and in love with Matthew Sanders. Matt, on the other hand, already has a girlfriend and wants nothing to do with Zack, which breaks the younger male's heart. That is until Matt helps Zacky one day in study hall, and the two slowly become friends. But, it will take Zack's condition taking a major turn for the worse to make Matt realize just how much Zack means to him.
