Joel could list the thousands of reasons why this could go wrong. But why the hell not? - OR; in which Etho fake dates Joel to make Bdubs jealous, Joel gains feelings for Etho.

This story is a sequel to The Night That Changed My Life. Please read that first. WARNING: this story includes character death, grief, mentions of self harm, and abusive parents. If any of this bothers you, feel free to click off. "Hello? Is this thing on?" I tapped the microphone a bit before smiling as it turned on. "Alright, hi. My name is Joel Beans; yes I know that is a weird last name, but it is what it is. I am here to tell you about my life. Some of you may have heard the big part of it, which is my husband Etho dying in a car crash only four days after our wedding. But there's a lot more to it." I started to pace around the stage a bit, holding the microphone firmly in my right hand. "There's a lot more to how we met and how our lives were. About my past, about his past...about our past. It's not all happy, and believe me when I tell you that there are some things I wish never happened, but as I said before...it is what it is." I sighed and looked down before whispering in a soft voice, "And there's nothing you can do to change that." ~•~ This story, as said above, is a sequel to The Night That Changed My Life and talks about how Joel and Etho met. This isn't an incredibly happy story. There's going to be a lot of angst, and some fluff (but not much) If you would prefer to steer away from angsty hell, I understand and hope to see you in my other stories. But if you wish to stick around, I hope you enjoy the ride :) (Cover art is not mine). This work belongs to me, @Seth189. I reserve the rights to this work and please do not repost it. It takes me a long time to come up with this stuff and it would be better to write your own work!!

Teenage superheroes they once were. But now they've grown further apart, not like how they were when they first met. Especially after a chaotic intoxicated night. How is it that they had an easier time connecting as naive teens? Why is it so hard now?

Cover art is not mine. All the art in this book, including the cover, is by Falconearring on Tumblr. Go follow them The title pretty much explains what this story is about. There are two versions of this story, the old version (which I wrote back around May 2023) and the rewritten version (written July 2024). The old version is self explanatory by the title, the newer version is more about internalized homophobia and all that fun stuff. Hope you enjoy This work belongs to me, @Seth189.
