John gets dropped off by his homophobic, alcoholic, abusive dad that he lives with and hopes that camp goes by fast because he doesn't want to get used to not being beaten. He has scars that he hope no one can see while whats in his eyes is only just a disguise while he wants to die and say goodbye but he always says he's fine but he's getting tierd of his own lies that leave his mouth and is always alone even when only a few hours he hates himself, no one loves him and he used to cry and cry and cry when he was little but he tries to be numb but sometimes the tears somehow escape and he can never bring himself to be happy and never brings down his walls for the fear of being judged. But then he meets a guy named Alex, somehow got right throught his walls that we're so high no one can see his pain and suffering, his barbed wire that threatened people to go away of they will regret it, into his heart but will John accept his feeling or will fear of his father drive him away from the one he loves so he can protect alex from the harm that might come in the future.
