If you had told Connor about Troye six months ago, he would've wholeheartedly disbelieved and denied it. If you had told him about how he would fall hopelessly in love with a boy and everything would be different after, he would've simply laughed in your face. Isn't it funny how things change?!

"Let me tell you the story, about what happens when a heart as cold as ice meets one made of gold." What happens to the things that nobody can remember? Are they forgotten? Did they mean anything at all? Did they even exist at some point? All his life, Connor has been told that he must forget. That he must let go and move on, and live the life he has been gifted with, even after the tragedy. But Connor doesn't want that. He keeps in mind the same series of noises over and over, every day, just to get by and to convince himself that it wasn't just a dream. That it happened. That it was real. That he was real. For the past ten years he has been moving from place to place, with barely any interest to accommodate himself. That is until he reaches that town... and meets him. Funny, how it works in the ways of the heart.

Troye Mellet is not popular. He's middle class in the teenage hierarchy and the head of the bitter kids. Cocky "populars" and superficial teens are his enemies, and high-school society his hell. But, behind the social ruse that is his hatred, there is a deep sadness. Loneliness; bottled and festering into complete misery. Connor Franta is popular, and he is weighed down by that label. He's the shyest one of his group, the vulnerable one, the easiest one to tease. Terrified of losing his "friends," even with their constant bullying, Connor's life is a whirlwind of anxiety. He's miserable, but the idea of sitting alone at lunch shakes him to his core. When a group of underdog teachers notice their unfortunate similarities, these seemingly polar opposites are brought together. Both boys find life-altering answers, love and comfort within a person they've been trained to hate. After all, since when did the truest kind of love care about status? TW: self-harm, eating disorders, talk of suicide, gun violence, smoking. (Nothing to the extent of a mature content filter)

it started as any romance would have started; just two boys, some loose change, and a cup of coffee.

Evident; adjective. plain or obvious; clearly seen or understood. Connor Franta is predictable. Everything he has ever done has been planned by himself since he was a little boy, and his life seems to be going exactly the way he wanted it to go. He was a top student, the best swimmer on his team, and he was on his way to the greatest law school in California. But maybe that wasn't what he wanted anymore. So right in the middle of his path, something happens that changes his entire perspective on things. The girl he was with no longer seems like the person he fell in love with, the school he thought he needed to get into no longer fits what he wants, and the boy he stumbled into becomes more than just another friend. Connor's life is starting to become less and less evident as the months go by, and that might be the best thing that could ever happen to him.

Connor Franta has always thought that loving girls was right. Until Troye, (his best friend), swept him off his feet. He vows to himself that he will never tell anyone, because they we'll treat him differently and hate him. Troye and Connor have a deep love, but when everyone is around, they pretend they don't know each other. We'll he continue keeping it a secret or will he pour it out to society?

This is where I will write my One-Shots from now on! The pairings will be various. (LAWL who am I kidding, it's mostly Tronnor, but you can request other pairings and if I get a lot of them I might do them once in a while.) (I don't take requests anymore. I found that I do not enjoy writing them. No worries! I update a lot when I'm not busy. (I'm never busy.) But.. Just read, enjoy.)

tronnor au // may get smutty at some point
