Love is as beautiful as it can get, it's also as cruel as things can be. Some people fall in love with the right people, while some fall in love with the wrong ones. But the most unfortunate people are the ones who fall in love with the right people when their timing isn't right. But even so, love never fails to flourish. Where there's true love, there's happiness. Love gives us the power to fight the world. But it also hurts us sometimes. More often than not, the pain allows for love to flourish even more. There's rarely ever any love story without the hurt. That's why they say,
"Ubi amor, ibi dolor." (Love is painful)
Andrew is an introverted dude who cares alot about the ones he loves. His entire life revolves around his few friends and his hobbies. But...he struggles with his thoughts as his past had left him scarred and hurt. Amidst all the chaos and sadness, Andrew tries his best to smile through it, thanks to his friends.
Nathan on the other hand is more outgoing and loves to enjoy his life to the fullest. He's one of the most good-looking guys in college as well as a good soccer player. He has a good heart but struggles to put his emotions into words. Unlike typical college guys, he doesn't sleep around with every girl in sight, despite all his charm and hot looks.
Andrew starts college this year as a freshman in the same college as Nathan. Nathan is in his junior year, getting through life as his relationship with his girlfriend deteriorated overtime.
On the welcoming party for the freshmen, Andrew and Nathan unfortunately share a kiss, barely knowing anything about each other. As they struggle with all the confusion and emotions surrounding them, their feelings start to unfold with time.
With a little bit of drama, confusion, some reminders of a traumatic past, attempts of self harm and loads of love, romance and smut the story of Andrew and Nathan has just begun.
**Trigger warning :
Homophobia, Abuse, self harm, suicidal thoughts, angst, nsfw, and fluff too (I'm not kidding I plan on making most of the story teeth rottingly fluffy so brace yourselves. The negative stuff is only gonna be there from time to time, to serve a greater purpose of bringin lovers together.)
A/N : Hi everyone, this is my first time ever writing a story. I know my writing skills suck, but I aim to improve over time. I don't know if I'll be able to continue the story. I'm rewriting the story again after finishing 2 chapters because I didn't like how it was going. Still, I'll make sure to update from time to time, no guarantees tho :P (mostly cause college is a bitch and I'm a 17 yr old dude with no life. I'm totally not writing this on my birthday hahaha).
