For a while, life goes on. Then obviously, things get complicated.

(bxb) Axel Hunter hates Will Anderson. The two don't exactly see eye to eye, though that's to be expected of the two most popular boys in their high school, both extremely competitive and sarcastic. So, when the baseball team vandalizes the basketball team's state trophies, they catch the attention of the principal once again. As a punishment, the principal and coaches force the two teams to spend time together at a far-away camp during their spring break-"team bonding," they called it. Axel knew he wouldn't last at this so called camp, not when he's forced to room with Will Anderson, and especially not when he starts to become somewhat bearable.

Asher Kane and Levi Carter are legends in their own right-and legendary for hating each other. Their very public feud is Hollywood gospel, solidified by a vicious clash at an awards show. So when Levi's label strong-arms a reluctant Asher into starring in the music video for his raw, vulnerable ballad about unrequited love, it's a recipe for disaster. Forced to portray two lifelong best friends, their animosity is a palpable force on set, a war fought through barbed insults and icy professionalism. But as they endure grueling scenes of fake domestic bliss and heartbreaking intimacy, the line between their characters and reality begins to blur. A tentative truce, born of exhaustion and late-night conversations, slowly ignites into something far more dangerous than hatred. Navigating a whirlwind of paparazzi, public scrutiny, and their own clashing fears, Asher and Levi must decide if the passion they've found is just a performance, or the real thing worth risking everything for. © yuanjia 2025 Highest Rankings: #1 actor out of 14.8k stories #10 mxm out of 25.3k stories #11 lgbtromance out of 770 stories

Carter Parrish lived a happy, simple life with his mom, and knowing she had found her way back to love was the best news he could have ever received. But love leads to marriage, and marriage brought him a new stepfather, a new house, six new stepbrothers and one especially obnoxious stepsister. When the place he is meant to call home starts to feel like a test to his good-will and patience, Carter needs an escape. He might find just that where he least expects it, after meeting a smart boy with a snarky sense of humor and a secret he doesn't seem to good at hiding, who just so happens to be his football coach's son. Somebody said "change is inevitable, growth is optional". Carter just wished they had left a footnote about how hard it can be. *STORY CONTAINS MULTIMEDIA*
