(BoyxBoy) Eli just came out. It's his first summer free - no more hiding, no more pretending. Just the ocean, his best friends, and maybe a boy or two.

Like a bolt of lightning, this stupid boy appeared in my life. First day of summer break between first and second grade, he just appeared- standing on my porch like he was born there. Straight brown hair, wide dark eyes and a fresh sunburn across his cheeks. He was already talking before I even opened the door. I don't know how it happened but it's been ten years. And he's still here. Talking, whether or not I'm listening. Laughing, even if no one else is. He's still too quick- racing around the world like he's scared he's going to miss it. He's gotten taller...much taller. His hair is a little longer, a little wavier, but under the light it still looks the same golden brown it did when we were nine. And now, finally, he was a high school graduate. We both were. Like a bolt of lightning he appeared and like the sun he refused to disappear. _____________________________________________ I fell asleep with my chin pointed at him, the outline of his face being the last thing I saw. How was I supposed to do this? It had always been difficult, hiding this secret, keeping him close. But now, my focus was starting to slip. I couldn't see anything but his lips, his hands, his smile. I couldn't hear anything but my name in his mouth, his jagged breaths and that loud laugh. How am I supposed to be okay with this? How am I supposed to focus on anything other than him? #1- slowburn- 11.10.25🥇 #1- friends to lovers- 11.01.25🥇 #1- fluffandsmut- 11.02.25🥇 #1- college- 11.06.25🥇 #1- best friends- 11.12.25🥇 #1- teammates- 12.04.25 🥇 #1- college roommates- 12.30.25🥇 #1- mental health- 01.02.2026 🥇 #1- gay love- 01.02.2026 🥇 #2- roommates- 12.18.25🥈 #3- bxblove- 11.30.25🥉 #4- boyxboy- 11.01.25 #4- lgbt- 11.15.25 #14- boyxboyromance- 12.15.25 #22- basketball- 12.15.25

Eli Parker keeps his head down - at school, he's bullied; at home, he's broken. His father-abusive and an alcoholic. His only escape is the sketchbook he never lets go. Then Rafe Torres shows up. The new kid with a bad reputation and a quiet heart. His aunt isn't much around to care what he does and doesn't. He sees Eli , really sees him - and offers something Eli's never had: safety....and maybe love As their bond grows in silence , Eli begins to wonder if there's more to life than just surviving. But love can't always save you. Not from everything.

Eli and Adrian have always been rivals-two sharp minds clashing in debate halls, their animosity legendary on campus. But when Eli wakes from a dream so vivid it feels like a memory-one where they were not enemies but lovers-his world tilts. The touch, the laughter, the intimacy linger in his bones, leaving him questioning reality. Was it just a dream? A glimpse of another life? Or something buried deep beneath years of competition? As he searches for answers, he finds Adrian already watching him, an unreadable expression in his eyes. And for the first time, Eli wonders-does Adrian dream of him too?

"As fierce as I tried to appear on the outside... I couldn't lie. I was still scared. Not only of getting hurt, but also of losing whatever's left of who I was. What if I would wake up one day and wouldn't recognize myself anymore? Though, maybe that was the point. Maybe the old me wasn't worth saving anyway."~Adrian Hayes ... After his parents kicked him out for being gay, Adrian Hayes finds himself longing for control and respect. He fights himself into the gang, his cousin is also part of, desperate to free himself from the humiliation and shame that clung to his name. Though, he never meant to fall for the rival gang leader. ... "I was the leader of a gang that Rafael wanted gone. And Adrian, whether he liked it or not, was one of Rafael's now."~Caleb Silva

(bxb) Survival tip #1: Don't strangle your snowed-in roommate. Easier said than done for Miles Thompson, a college senior who just wants to cruise through his final semester with a little fun and as few complications as possible. But when a freak blizzard traps him in Logan Arver's freezing apartment---with no heating, one uselessly thin blanket, and the most irritating guy on campus---simple is officially off the table. Logan is smug, infuriatingly calm, and way too good at getting under Miles' skin. Miles is short-tempered, sleep-deprived, and absolutely not interested in making new friends. But with the snow piling up, the power on the verge of cutting out, and nowhere else to go, they're forced to navigate more than just the storm together, long after it ends.

(bxb) After a year of surviving an all boys boarding school, William Brown thought he had finally navigated the ups and downs that the rich, private school had to offer. He'd even managed to make a few friends, as well as a rightful enemy. Lucien Harding. The two young boys were about as friendly as oil and water-that is, not very much. A dark haired boy deemed for destruction and a golden prince promised greatness weren't the likely pair. They knew as much, yet somehow, it had become inevitable. Their relationship would either go down in flames or a blaze of glory. Both boys bleed flame either way. Whichever path, they'll learn more than they bargained for.

This is a story about a hockey team, but above all, a story about boys. Brooks Myers is the captain of the Oakridge Otters and he's willing to do whatever it takes to hear his name called at the NHL draft next summer. Elias Somerset is a freshly crowned World Junior champion, forced to move back to the small town of Aspen to play for his father's old team. In Brooks' eyes, Elias is nothing but an obstacle in his way and Elias just wants to survive the year, and forget. Both boys live and breathe hockey. Both boys are lost in their own lives, but have to work together to win a Championship. Can they learn to play together despite their differences? Is there something in life worth more than hockey? In the end, the line between obsession, desire, and love is thinner than either of them dares to admit.

LANDON KING x JEREMY VOLKOV There's something about Him that I can't quite shake. An unexplainable obsession that consumes my thoughts, driving me to extremes I never thought possible. He's become more than just a rival; he's an enigma I'm determined to unravel. As my obsession with him intensifies, so does my vow to destroy him. I'll tear down everything he holds dear, leaving him broken and defeated. When our rivalry reaches its climax, I'll emerge victorious, owning him in every sense of the word. Disclaimer: I DO NOT own most of the characters. They are a part of the Legacy of Gods series by Rina Kent. This is merely my take on 'what could have been.' Disclaimer 2.0: Landon and Jeremy (along with all the other characters in this story) are my interpretations of them from Brandon and Nikolai's POVs, because they're my babies. Most-if not all-of the characters differ from their RKverse versions, personality wise. There were things I disliked about the OCs, so I took the creative liberty to change them in this fanfic according to my moral compass. As a result, they might be boring to some. I'm just putting this disclaimer here so no one ends up disappointed. In other words: reduce your expectations to zero.
