This is the first time I'm sharing my writing so be nice pls! Obviously a lot of this is not cannon but it is still written to exist in their reality, if that makes sense. ALL OF THE CHARACTERS ARE OVER 18 IN THIS. There are warnings for nsfw content in the beginning of each chapter, but there will be absolutely no non-con or anything like that. There is some violence, but again there are warnings at the beginning of the chapter. I'd like to say that obviously anyone is welcome to read this, no matter your gender/sexuality/etc, and I appreciate any support!!! But this is also made for mlm/nblm because this is a gay ship lol Feel free to make requests :)

this will include angst, smut, and fluff! disclaimers will be put before each one<3

Travis Phelps has been in love with Sal Fisher ever since Sal came to Nockfell two years ago. He never stood a chance, and he knew it, so rather than try, he resorted to the only thing he could think of that would get him close to Sal- bullying him. That is, until Sal suffers from an accident, losing all of his memories. Travis chooses to redeem himself in the wake. This was his chance, after all. It was going to work. It had to, right? cross-posted on ao3.
