Alex has never quite believed he's good enough. Not as a person and not as a lighting technician. He hates that however hard he tries he can't get his boss, Luke, to like him. In the two years he's been in the job it's become a Thing with him and he's got a huge crush on the man. He needs to move on for his own sanity and his career and he's just about to accept a job at a bigger theatre when one of the volunteers he's bedded and dumped pushes him off a ladder. Luke likes Alex a lot and has done since the day he walked through the door of Theatre Fawr two years ago. He doesn't date his staff though, or do casual, and Alex is the epitome of casual. So Luke keeps his distance despite Alex's constant flirting. Will Alex's injury give Alex and Luke the push they need to open up to each other? Or will Luke's inadvertent discovery that Alex has a secret job offer push them further apart?
