Plot: Surrey, present day. Mason, Aiden, Carter and Wyatt. Four boys. Four different backgrounds. United they stand. Divided they fall.. Living in this day and age should not be difficult for four normal boys but this is no normal world. After starting school after passing their GCSE’s, life seems to have gotten a lot tougher. At school they can all agree and fight for eachother but when the end comes and each returned to their own, it when the differences show and the true strength of four lifelong friends will be tested and pushed to near breaking point.

Synopsis: After passing their GCSE’s in flying colours, the boys can finally kick back and relax… or can they? We start with a meeting of all the boys, after a long time of hard work they are all happy to finally meet and socialise. Mason and Aiden are already arguing as Carter and Wyatt turn up. After resolving the issue of who is got a higher grade the boys start to wonder around, as they are walking down a path two of them recognise a girl which is walking towards them. She is beautiful, carrying two folders and distracted by her phone one of the boys decides to nudge his friend into her. She falls to the ground and drops both folders and her phone. The two who nudged into her stand around and start to argue whilst the other two help her up, one gives her hand back onto her feet whilst the other collects the items she dropped and hands them back to her. She thanks them but soon joins the argument with the two boys who nudged her. Whilst the two who helped her up stand watching it unfold, one receives a text from their father ordering him to get home immediately. He says goodbye and is soon gone. The other male also starts to make his way home until he hears his friend shout “at least you have a family”. He turns around and sees another of his friends walking away. The one remaining male that stands by the girl simply says “you can’t do anything right”. He too walks away. The girl notices the boy who stopped walking away and decides to join him walking. We jump to the first male who has just got home, his father is tapping a kitchen surface as he enters and questions where he was. Another jump reveals the other two males who are walking together through a busy high street however no one is walking near them. We finally see the boy and girl again. The boy slows and produces a flower from his jacket inside pocket, he holds it behind his back. The girl notices that he slowed down so she turns around to face him, walks closer then tells him that she likes one of the other males. We see the flower that the boy once held now falling and hitting the floor...
