The guy's got abs sharper than his attitude, and trust me - both hurt. Enter Sanjay Kumar - our "I-don't-care-but-I-actually-do" boy. A guy who values friendship more than logic, loyalty more than safety, and somehow ends up in the most avoidable mess ever.

They've never kissed before, because that would be a step too far and it would mean they like each other. It was just a random hookup situation, between two guys who started to hate each other as they grew apart. That was the deal between Jessie Summers and Riley Williams. Countless amounts of hookups, endless hatred toward each other, but no kissing since they had no feelings for each other. They both agreed that it was completely causal, with no emotional investment or seriousness between them. At least that's what they thought at first... ~~~~~~~~~~~ Highest rankings: • Bisexual - #1 (21/7/20) • Lgbtfiction - #1 (19/7/20) • Boyxboy - #1 (11/9/20) • Boylove - #1 (14/9/20) • Sports - #1 (20/7/20) • Rivalry - #1 (11/7/20) • Casualsex - #1 (3/7/20) • Dorm - #1 (12/12/20) • Enemieswithbenefits - #1 (26/820) • Gay - #2 (2/9/20( • Lgbt - #5 (31/8/20) • Enemies - #5 (23/9/20) ~~~~~~~~~~~

They say you only fall in love once. For Ody and Mano, that once changed everything. In a world where love isn't always safe, and pain comes hand-in-hand with desire, two straight boys find each other in the middle of grief, trauma, and secrets that refuse to stay buried. Mano doesn't do vulnerability. Aggressive, tattooed, cold, and impossible to like, he plays the villain on purpose, because being hated is safer than being seen... and losing someone again would destroy him. Ody can't help but care. Bright, extroverted, charming and painfully sincere, he's the kind of boy who notices when you're hurting, even when you pretend you're not. He remembers your birthday, offers you the last slice, and apologizes even when it's not his fault. When their lives collide, nothing about them makes sense, except the way they keep gravitating toward each other. Sparks fly, but so do secrets, buried trauma, and a love neither of them is ready for. One of them hides behind silence. The other hides behind smiles. Together, they're wildfire. But not all fires survive the storm. The forbidden love between a broken boy and a lost one. A bond that refuses to break, even as the world tries to tear them apart. 🖤COMPLETED🖤 !
