"Sure, you're not." Not once in Aiden's life has he believed that bullying a gay kid is wrong. Especially not when he believes that all gay people deserve to go to hell. But when his best friend comes out to him, and he uncovers a very scandalous secret about his own family, Aiden is left confused and terrified. It also doesn't help that amidst all his troubles, all Aiden can think about is just how hot The Bartender in the local bar across town is and just how much he wants to kiss him. ~~~~ You will hate Aiden in the beginning, trust me. But, please do give him a chance if you read this story. You'll love him, I promise. Kindly keep negative comments to a minimum.

Forced to share his bed with an attractive stranger, Ash Jamieson suddenly finds himself confronted with feelings he thought he'd repressed. ***** Riddled with adolescent angst, lavished with profanity, and adorned with more cheese than your favourite take-out pizza, Top and Tail chronicles the life of Ash Jamieson as he haphazardly navigates his way through malicious schoolmates, whackjob teachers, disillusioned parents, imbecilic athletes, audacious girls, and of course, his most pressing problem: the subdued pretty-boy that has suddenly invaded every aspect of his life. Being a teenager is hard, ok? ***** Top and Tail is posted exclusively on Wattpad! If you're reading this elsewhere, you're reading an unedited, stolen version where illegal sites profit off my work :( The official version is FREE to read at it's home on Wattpad!
