Is it friendship? Romance? Is C.J. the one with all the answers . . or does Micah bring more to the relationship than it first seems? As their lives become more and more entangled in the AIDS epidemic that's laying waste to their community, and the AIDS activism that will ultimately bring a strong voice to their demands, whatever Micah and C.J. have between them will be tested, stretched, and strained.
