Dana Thommens wants a normal college experience. Unfortunately, that isn't what he's going to get. After ruining Matthew Jeneviere's very expensive shirt, his life takes a drastic turn. The quiet and mysterious actor is a heart throb on campus and this heart throb lingers in Dana's life until they're definitely at least friends, but perhaps on the road to becoming much more. There's nothing easy about liking a once fallen and now upcoming celebrity. The attention may be too much to handle, especially when there's far more opposing them than Dana could imagine.

"Remember this - don't fuck up my life more than you already have, pretty boy. You're gonna regret it." Even while knowing that he felt nothing towards me other than hatred, that was the first time I really acknowledged the small things about Blake Brooks, something I never thought about before. His face was like a drug I couldn't get enough of. -- Theo Wright is a quiet, and intelligent nerd, who's academically oriented. He comes from a family with a prestigious and wealthy background. He's usually left alone, ignored, and overlooked, but not at his new High School. Not at Redsen High. With his parents firing half of the town's shop owners to make room for more chain restaurants and stores, the town of Redcliff is enraged at the Wrights' actions. Especially Blake Brooks, a popular and obnoxious jock, who just so happens to live next to the Wright mansion, and coincidentally, goes to the same school as Theo. When Blake finds out the news about his parents' unjustified unemployment, he's angry and provoked. And what better way to get back at the Wrights', than to find his way into their business secrets? But to achieve this, he first needs to find his way into Theo Wright's heart.

Nathan Dawson is his identical twin and Nathan is nothing like him. It isn't easy to be compared with the perf*ct brother, the perf*ct son and the perf*ct student in a world that demands for perf*ction. But it's all about to change when Nathan stumbles upon a guy to whom perf*ct is a swear word. °°°° "Perf*ction is an illusion, it doesn't exist. Think about your brother. Can you tell me something that isn't perf*ct about him?" "Well.. He can be a bit selfish sometimes." "Good. What else?" "He lets his friends laugh at me even though he knows it hurts me. And.. He hangs toilet paper the wrong way." "See? He's not perf*ct. He just seems that way, because no one is looking close enough." "But everyone likes him more than me." "Not everyone. I like you a lot more than I like him. You're not perf*ct and you don't try to make people think you are. You're real and I love that about you." °°° 2021-2022

(This was my very first story so I can acknowledge that there are some really cringy parts-aka I will be rewriting/revising very soon!) Asher King's life has revolved around putting up an involuntary mask to hide his true self. With successful parents boasting about his 'pretend' success, Asher feels as though the life he is living was never his to begin with, and a home of happiness is far out of reach. While the luxurious life is envied by most, Asher is only followed by social anxiety and suffocation in a life he doesn't want. The only place where he feels like he can genuinely escape is the little flower shop down the street, where he doesn't expect to find the school's star football player.

After multiple encounters with the mysterious boy from the flower shop he works at, Leo soon realizes that he can't help falling for the flower boy. Can Leo find the relationship of his dreams while trying to find a future in a world that exudes masculinity? Will Asher finally find authenticity that will break him free from the marionette puppet he is staged to play? Find out in "Flowers for Football."

✔️ | When you've been controlled by your father nearly your entire life, would you take the risk and escape? I did. I took that risk and escaped my father. The big, bad mafia boss; Jerry Tirelli.

I wish I knew I'd be walking into the hands of the most feared man in Jersey. Xavier Toscano. My family's biggest rival. Maybe it's stockholm syndrome? Or am I just simply falling in love? I've been deprived of human contact for so long, how do you decipher the two? ⚠️TW : Assault, Violence, Rape/Attempted rape, Attempted suicide, Sexual content between mxm.

✔️ | "I have half the mind to drop you right here and fuck you against this wall, but I can think of some better things we can do in the bed." I replied, speaking sensually in his ear. "Well get to it then, professor." For years I was living my dream as an archaeologist, travelling the world with the love of my life. Everything was magnificent until we made a discovery that resulted in the death of my soul mate. Now at the age of 35, my life consists of teaching History as a professor at the University of California in Berkeley, CA. Living the same old, consistent routine on repeat. That is until a cocky young man catches my eye. He's beautiful, confident, and a pain in my ass. He's ignited a flame deep in my bones. A flame I thought would never be lit again. Maybe, just maybe I can find my happy ending. ... That is, if it isn't ripped out from under me by my daunting past.

✔️ | After swearing off relationships, I never thought I'd fall for my one night stand. A complete stranger. Months of searching and unsuccessfully finding this man, I've begun to lose all hope. Little did I know, I would be meeting the gorgeous green eyed man again. But will it be everything I've been expecting it to be? Or will the darkness from the past be too much to handle? I remember his exact words of that night 6 months ago... "I don't usually do this but... Do y-you want to get out of here?" He whispered seductively in my ear. That night... Well, it was the best night of my life. Highest Rankings: Thanks for the support, I feel awesome even having these in the top 1000!
