Three best friends. One summer. 43 days. That's what creates something three boys never saw coming. ___ Malachi Williams is a little harsh-edged, a little boring, a little stern. But he has to be, because who else is going to keep Enzo Lopez and Leo Garcia in check? The three childhood best friends have finished their senior year, and before they were to go their separate ways for college, they thought of a road trip. In fact, they'd been thinking of one for years. And now the day was finally here. Malachi planned everything to a T. But he should've known that with those two, nothing could go as he planned.

SPIN-OFF TO "FROM THE OTHER SIDE" Having a crush on one of your best friends is already a struggle. Having a crush on one of your best friends, who is overly affectionate and oblivious, is even worse. Marcus speaks from experience. And it doesn't help that his feelings only grew stronger during the year they both took off before college. Now Marcus is away from Ashton, campuses nearby yet just far enough that Marcus believed he could push his feelings aside. And he believes he'll find that in the company of a broody, direct boy named Elliott, but the two opposites only occupy his mind at the same time. started: july 20th, 2019 finished: march 14th, 2020

"I'm not a kid," I spat back as I glared at him. "Whatever," he said as he turned, his massive frame not even a little scared of me nor my knife. For some reason beyond my comprehension, I felt the smallest of tugs in my gut as I saw him walk away. Everything told me to run while he had his back to me, maybe try and get back to the club and just wait till morning to go home. And yet.... "Hey!" I still called out to him. "Hm?" he asked, his head turned slightly but his feet still carried him away from me. "W-who are you?" *** Seven years ago, Elijah made a mistake. On the day of his 16th birthday, the day everyone has the chance to find their Fated Pair, he walked into school like every other day. Upon making eye contact with Harrison Gramm, his one and only best friend, Elijah's world fell to pieces. "Not you," he had said with such cruelty. "Anyone but you." Now, seven years later, Elijah has found himself spiraling down a road of depression, self-hatred, and drug use with no light to guide him. A whore of a mother who thought nothing of him, a father dead after betrayed them both, Elijah has no one by his side. That was, until a mysterious man came into the bar one night. Will this man be the one to save him? Or will Elijah find him self tumbling deeper into the world of drugs, crime lords, and fated pairs he so desperately wants to get away from? ~this is a boys love story with dark theme such as attempted suicide.

Frost Blue's the type of guy who commits himself to the choices he makes. Whether that choice might be distancing himself, giving up, or the complete opposite. He's also the type of guy who lets the past traumas of his life haunt him, day and night, until he's gasping for air and panicking for any kind of escape. Frost Blue decides he needs to pull himself together after failing his final year of high school. Decides he's let the past ruin his life enough and needs to walk into the future without it on his mind. In solution; him and his parents arrange a spot for him in a men's home, named 'A Found Home For Lost Boys.' So the Brit leaves like he says he will to Washington, USA, and prays all of it will be worth it in the end. Will he make the fast recovery he's hoping for? Will he find the ten clients, and one psychologist, who reside there, friendly and easy to connect with? Or will he have the complete opposite experience? * Word Count : 146K± Rankings: #1 in verygay 12/08/2025 #2 in growth 01/01/2026 #37 in depression 01/01/2026

Elliott was like most boys. He has bright yellow hair, with even brighter green eyes. He has two arms. A head. A heart. But he learned early on just how crushing the world can be to you. How it can easily Fuck with you. How it can leave you broken and bruised with nothing with barely a beating heart. So maybe he wasn't like most boys... What happens when he's shipped off to yet another Boys Home. And how long till he's shipped off to another? ------------------------------- 1st book: Binding 2nd book: Intertwining 3rd book: Longing -------------------------------- *NOT MY STORY* This was originally posted on AO3 by PandaReal

Jonathan hasn't been honest a single day in his life. All his friends, his smiles, and his zest for life are just a way of lying to himself and everyone else. Did he have a bit of an addiction to alcohol and tobacco? Maybe. Was he incapable of eating a single full plate of food a day? Perhaps. Did he live with an abusive, drug-addled father 24/7? True. But he was okay, because he was Jonathan. And Jonathan was the happy kid, the life of the party, and he didn't have any problems in life. Right? Sending him to an institution with five other boys in equally deplorable mental states is just an excuse for him to run away from home, not because he needs it. Obviously. The important thing is that Jonathan will continue to be perfect...until he isn't.
