Sixteen-year-old Telly and his best friend, Casper, live in New York where they spend most of their time on the streets. They skateboard in the park, hang out at friends’ places, take drugs, drink alcohol, and steal things for fun. But Telly’s favorite hobby is deflowering girls. This has the same effect as a drug for him, and he usually manages to persuade his reluctant victim—only to go straight after the next one.

His latest passion is thirteen-year-old Darcy: he manages to persuade her to go to a private party with him after a nighttime swim in a closed-off pool with his gang. Darcy’s predecessor, Jennie, was Telly’s most recent conquest. When she accompanies her more experienced friend Ruby to an HIV test and has one done as well, she learns that it is not Ruby but she herself who has AIDS. Only Telly could have infected her, because he is the only guy she has had.
