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
“But even seeing him through all those years, through every mood and every dumb scheme, I never looked at Neil with those eyes, Anderson. Meanwhile, Neil could just be breathing, and you look at him like he saved the planet in a past life or wrote the Declaration of Independence on a napkin.”
He leaned in, his voice confidential. "You've got feelings. Big ones.”
Todd’s world crashed. The cold realization that Charlie knew he was gay, and worse, he knew the subject of his desire was his own best friend sent a wave of sickening dread through him.
