Being forced to move so many states away from all that he once knew, Nessa was nervous to tackle his new life. Fortunately, it didn't take long for Nessa to meet a plethora of unique individuals who welcomed him into their lives: The optimist, the kinky, the haunted, the bitchy, the hippie, and the intellect. They all did their best to show him what life was like in the city, and to teach him how to live each day as though it was his last. Nessa tried his best to do as they said, but sometimes he couldn't help but glance over his shoulder. Those eyes that so many people deemed beautiful, they were always searching for a specific shadow in the dark. Until someone tapped his arm, and he was forced to ignore the nagging feeling at the back of his mind. •O•O• LGBTQ+ book Started: 2 . 6 . 21 Finished: 9 . 26 . 22 TW: addiction, sexual assault, sex, drugs, strong language, mild violence.

"Do you mean that chemistry test we have tomorrow?" I ask, frowning. His eyes widen, as he freezes in his tracks for a moment. "Chemistry test?" he asks quietly. "Lucas..." I rub my forehead, and then look up at him. "You're such an idiot". "You say that a lot, you know" he says, fake offended. "That's because you manage to prove it every day, and always in a different way". I open my backpack, and shove my chemistry book in his hands. "Now study". His smile grows a little bigger. "Thanks" he sighs, and he gives me a quick hug. "You're a life saver". ШШШ Lucas and Dean are possibly the closest friends in all of Molton high.

It spins vibrant red strings that flow into the world and connect people who are destined to meet, to love, to share a story written long before their time. Rubi Amari was born with a special awareness for the ways of fate, and eyes that let her see the red threads that bind soulmates. When she sees soulmates walk past each other, completely oblivious to their connection, she plays her part, ensuring their paths cross. She simply thinks of this as her purpose in life. But all her beliefs go for a toss when she meets two stubborn idiots. A thin line of red stretches between the two boys, but they refuse to fall in love no matter what. (bxb) (gxg)
