*COMPLETED* (Y.O.L.O stands for: YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE) *** Carter Jones, the school nerd, and Killian Henderson, the reputated troublemaker, somehow end up getting detention together. "How about we make a bet?" Offered Killian, his pistachio-green eyes drilling into mine as a playful smile lingered on his lips. "A bet?" I gulped, intimidated by how close he was sitting next to me. He nodded and raised four fingers, the ones with the letters "Y.O.L.O" tattooed on them, wriggling them in front of me with his ever-so-confident grin. "Four dares, Jones, just you and me." And that's how it all started. *** Rankings: #fiction #featured #queer #gay #depression #bl #youngadult #featured #comedy #bisexual #manxman #teen fiction #boyxboy #bxb #LGBT #romance Cover designed by Holly Thurston

This is a rewrite of my original secrets story. It will be split into two books, and this is book one of two. Bakugo's a walking and talking nightmare. He has one last chance to clean up his act before he gets expelled. One last chance to change his future. Midoriya can't say no. He can't put his foot down and ends up letting everyone walk all over him to the point that he's exhausted and miserable. The problem is they don't know how to handle the trauma that made them that way. They don't know how to fix what happened to them. They're coping in the best ways they can, but it isn't enough anymore. If either of them want a chance at a good future, they need to change. Their mothers are hoping a little summer getaway will help with that.

Izuku Midoriya, a pawn in a much larger game, gets sent to U.A. college, where he's reunited with an old friend. He's part of the Viper's gang, a gang run by his father. He's sent out to kill whoever is on the list without a second thought. When he runs into an old friend who works for the largest mafia in the country, he starts to uncover the patterns that his father had worked so far to cover. He doesn't feel emotions the same way most people do, and he lacks empathy. However, when he runs into an old friend, the truth is uncovered slowly, and things unravel in the worst, yet best, way possible. ----------------- Katuski Bakugo, living in a frat house with other members of the mafia, does what he's told without question. He can be a bit of a loose cannon occasionally and has a bit of a temper, but he's as loyal as they come. When he finds out the Vipers have returned to town, everyone is warned to play nice. When he sees an old friend has joined the Vipers, he hunts him down. He was easy enough to find, but getting him to stick around was harder. Bakugo was being pushed away and ignored, which made his obsession with his childhood friend grow. Together, they uncover secrets meant to be buried forever and figure out the truth behind the orders they were given. --Trigger warning are listed at the beginning of the story

After the war with the LOV that had nearly succeeded in killing Katsuki Bakugo he left town for what he thought was for good for more reasons than one. But now two years later something is pulling him back to the place, the job and the people he thought he left behind. There's several reasons for his return but there's one particularly strong reason, Izuku Midoriya, but when Katsuki finds out Izuku is in a relationship he makes a decision to step in and soon discovers that wars of the heart are the most frightening ones to fight, with the most on the line that he's not willing to lose. * Bakudeku*
