May I ask?
Is there a gay element in this story?

The author on twitter explained the story isn't focused on romance or one genre, but she does say the story holds everything: their love, their hated, etc...
In my personal opinion, I think there will be some gay elements because the author herself says she ships them and calls them a couple and such.
Here are a few links to what she said:

(And I agree, even if there weren't gay elements, I'd still ship it)
I like Caleb but I'm kind of sorry for him
