Jesse's life turns upside down once the football player from his school finds out he's gay. Because of that he has to obey to jock's every command or else his secret will be revealed to everyone. Jesse already had a hard enough life because of his alcoholic father and insensitive mother and this made things even more complicated. Not to mention the fact that he was living in a pretty homophobic environment and for his own safety he had to hide his true identity. Will Jesse be able to overcome this challenge? You'll have to read more to find out. *DISCLAIMER - Story contains themes that some readers may consider disturbing such as suicide, homophobia, violence and more.

[boyxboy] Simon Matthews was off limits. Off limits to everyone and everything. Everyone knew that. The football team knew that, the teachers knew that, hell even Simon knew that. But the one thing he didn't know was why. He didn't know why everyone avoided him like he had some sort of disease. Simon Matthews was off limits because Asher Ericsson liked him, and Asher Ericsson had a habit of being possessive. Cover design: @erroristcxxs

Will and Ash are best friends, except they aren't exactly "friends." Will is a typical angsty teenager who hates anything that moves. Ash is a bubbly, nerdy boy whose favorite color is the rainbow and his favorite animal is a puppy. They're the most unlikely match, but Will is strangely protective of the other, smaller boy. Then secrets unearth that Will never saw coming, and he has no idea what to make of his best friend who somehow keeps smiling.
