And suddenly this whole new world opens up to him.
Like for a start, he's surrounded by these similarly clever people.
But then he meets this, he meets a boy called Willie and he discovers that he's kind of, he's completely refused to accept the person he is until this moment when he meets Willie.
And he falls in love with Willie.
