Darius the Great Deserves Better

Darius Kellner is having a bit of a year. Since his trip to Iran, a lot has changed. Hes getting along with his dad, and his best friend Sohrab is only a Skype call away. Between his first boyfriend, Landon, varsity soccer practices, and an internship at his favorite tea shop, things are falling into place.

Then, of course, everything changes. Dariuss grandmothers are in town for a long visit, and Darius cant tell whether they even like him. The internship is not going according to plan, Sohrab isnt answering Dariuss calls, and Dad is far away on business. And Darius is sure he really likes Landonbut hes also been hanging out with Chip Cusumano, former bully and current soccer teammateand well, maybe hes not so sure about anything after all.

Darius was just starting to feel okay, like he finally knew what it meant to be Darius Kellner. But maybe okay isnt good enough. Maybe Darius deserves better.
