Troye wants experience and who better to help him than his best friend? Tyler has had feelings for Troye for a while and sees this arrangement as his only chance to be with him. Will two weeks of being friends with benefits bring them closer or tear them apart? *Smut Warning. Obviously. Look at the title. No triggering material!*

What if you could hear them? The thoughts they deigned not reasonable enough to say out loud, the things not suitable for even a giggly teenage gossip conversation. Would it be a blessing or a curse? Troye, the unlucky teenager bestowed with this 'gift', thinks of it as a curse, with good reason. Do you know how hard it is to keep a relationship with someone when you know exactly what they think of you? Impossible. It's impossible. Or at least that's what Troye thinks, considering he's given up on even trying to make it work. He's different, people shun different. People hate different. And it's better to go under the radar, to be nothing, than to be hated. Right? Tyler, on the other hand, has taken a different approach to a similar problem. No, he can't 'read minds', but he does have a part of himself he doesn't want a soul to know about. He's quarterback, every girl's dream guy, an academic mastermind, and he's also gay. He's seen how different kids get treated, hell, he's been the one to treat them that way before. Why on Earth would he ever wish that on himself? No, it's easier to hide, to be someone you're not, than to be hated. Right?

Tyler is a hard working student at the practical peasant pit of Rudford High, and he is determined to keep it that way. Being a nerdy drama-invested teenager with a shitty family life and no friends apart from Connor, life doesnt seem to go easy for him. Despite being a social outcast, he tries to ignore all the faults he finds in society, refusing to let other students and their idiotic values bring him down- and yet to Tyler, the world seems determined to do just that. The only reputation he has ever had is for being a good worker, being focused and having his ideas straighter than his sexuality... He cant let a little trouble ruin it all. But will an unlikely involvement with Troye Sivan, one of the most arrogant, tattooed and lip-ringed jerks in the school change this? From the boys wandering lips to his surprising drama interest, the popular student enters Tylers life without warning and flips it around with his little finger Because you cant be involved in trouble without getting into some yourself... And a certain Troyeboy is about to bring him a lot of it
