Summary
Once Neil gets to about page 6 when looking over his play, he feels his eyebrows furrow. Now, obviously since the play was about the Poets as a whole, there wasn’t really a main character. There would be a more prominent character in each given scene, but Neil made sure to avoid making himself the one who narrated and directed the entire story.
But once he was about halfway through rereading what he had so far, he realized that every character more or less revolved around one Poet in particular. Every scene managed to include the character, there were always in-depth descriptions of what he and his facial expressions looked like, and everyone either went to him for help or obviously valued his opinion highly.
Neil had named the character William, and he was realizing now that he had included a surprising amount of descriptions about this character’s blond hair, blue eyes, and unassuming but devout personality.
Oh shit, Neil thinks to himself, I accidentally made Todd the main character.
Or in which it's 1960, the Poets' senior year at Welton, and Neil's writing a secret play, his magnum opus, but there's just one problem: Todd keeps getting in the way.

Summary
They don’t know how they ended like this. One minute, they were whispering as loud as they could about the last meeting, voices ringing with excitement, high on the buzzing feeling of breaking the rules and coming together to, if for naught but a few hours, truly live; the next minute, they were kissing, Neil’s hands coming up to Todd’s face to cup his cheeks as Todd’s gripped onto his shoulders, his sweater, his clothes bunched up in his sweaty fists as they tried not to make too much noise whilst they breathed each other in, over and over.

Summary
All in all, Charlie himself seemed to be the least surprised out of all of them when he heard about what happened.
“Todd Anderson, criminal mastermind,” he would say, grinning like a madman, for years to come. “Beat me to it!”
Todd was not at the wrong place at the wrong time, nor was he drunk, nor did he commit a felony, though he was, indeed, not yet thirty. He was twenty-seven, and he punched a cop in the face.

Summary
Joy to the world! Christmas is coming to Welton, but despite the picturesque snow on every inch of the grounds, not everything is eggnog, mistletoe, and chestnuts. Finals are upon the Poets, and stress runs high. Neil agonizes over the perfect gift for Todd. Todd agonizes over his feelings for Neil. And Charlie manages to get caught in the middle of it all.
