(The fic takes place 5 months after the events of Season 1)
One morning, Jonathan’s car unexpectedly breaks down just before he needs to head to school. In a surprising turn of events, Steve, someone Jonathan believed had no interest in him, offers to give him a ride to both school and work until his car is repaired. At first, the car rides are filled with awkward tension, but over time, they become a routine that both boys look forward to. As Jonathan, who has spent much of his life isolated and lonely, finds himself wanting to spend more time with Steve. He tries to figure out his feelings for the boy he once thought was indifferent to him. During these car rides, protective family and friends, and a flirtatious Eddie Munson, will Jonathan and Steve realize their feelings for each other are mutual?
