Cleats, Corsets, and the Cutie

One football star, one drag queen, and a pansexual. Eliot's closet is crowded. Living one life is tough. Living three!? Eliot craves acceptance. He wants to show the world his flamboyance. Most of all, he yearns for a love that accepts the different parts of his life.

The floodlights and the spotlights make him wary till he crosses paths with the Indian chef, Raghuvendra, with his 'tutti-frutti' English, who speaks in the third person. Six months is long enough to make goo-goo eyes from across the stage. Eliot needs to make a move on the cuddle-worthy bear.

But? What if he shows Raghu who he really is and all that he has worked for burns down? While his cleats and corsets are stored in the safety of different compartments of his life, Eliot must find a way to keep the cutie.
