~Flowers From 1970~ REUPLOADED

Sapnap grew up in Texas, a state where being gay just wasn't something you were allowed to talk about- so he didn't. He never came out to his family and even when he made new friends who loved him unconditionally, he still couldn't bring himself to come out. Staying in the closet never felt like a problem once he moved to Florida with Dream, well, until a video collaboration introduced him to a boy that made him question if he could keep hiding. Now, Sapnap has to return to Texas for the first time since his move to Florida for his step-sister's birthday. What's waiting for him when he arrives is going to make keeping his sexuality a secret from his family that much harder.

Karl is nerdy and mute, mostly due to insecurities, bullying, and his father's death. Nick is popular and talkative -- only because someone is always talking to the school's star basketball player. content warnings: bullying, agression, violence, fighting, blood, homophobia 10, 000 reads - Sept 30/21 20, 000 reads - Oct 22/21 30, 000 reads - Nov 02/21 40, 000 reads - Nov 20/21 50, 000 reads - Dec 16/21 60, 000 reads - Jan 09/22 70, 000 reads - Feb 13/22 80, 000 reads - Mar 26/22 90, 000 reads - May 16/22 100, 000 reads - Jul 21/22 110, 000 reads - Sept 17/22 120, 000 reads - Nov 12/22 130, 000 reads - Dec 29/22 140, 000 reads - Mar 06/23 150, 000 reads - Jul 25/23 160, 000 reads - Dec 10/23 Highest Rankings: #1 in BROMANCE - Oct 20/21 #1 in GAYGUYS - Oct 21/21 #3 in KARLNAP - Oct 20/21 #1 in SHIPNAME - Oct 23/21 #2 in SKEPHALO - Feb 21/22 #5 in SAPNAP - Feb 21/22 #1 in KARLJACOBS - Feb 22/22 #1 in SKEPHALO - Jun 14/22 #2 in KARLNAP - Oct 03/22 #10 in SCHOOL - Nov 17/22 #1 in KARLJACOBS - Nov 24/22 #2 in DREAMSMP - Nov 29/22 #1 in KARLNAP - Dec 08/22 #5 in GAYGUYS - Jul 7/23 #4 in DNF - Aug 14/23 #2 in GAYGUYS - Aug 19/23 #1 in KARLNAP - Nov 07/23
