Cee Ayers doesn't let people in-he's got walls built from years of learning that trust is dangerous. Zeph Carter doesn't need an invitation-he sees through the silence, through the sarcasm, and meets Cee exactly where he is. What starts as an easy friendship shifts into something heavier, something neither of them expected. But love-real love-means letting yourself be seen, even when it's terrifying. Sample Scene: Cee was sprawled on Zeph's bed, noise-canceling headphones on, iPad in hand, locked into his game. He barely noticed when the mattress dipped, barely reacted when Zeph's warmth pressed against him. Then Zeph slid on top of him. Cee exhaled through his nose, adjusting his grip on the iPad, ignoring the weight pressing him into the mattress. A slow, deliberate kiss landed on his neck. Then another. Cee tapped his screen. "Move." Zeph didn't. Instead, he bit down gently, then soothed the spot with his tongue. Cee tensed. "Zeph." Zeph hummed against his skin, pressing more kisses, dragging his lips up the side of Cee's throat. His hands settled on Cee's ribs, thumbs rubbing slow circles. Cee's fingers twitched around the iPad. He tried to focus. He really did. Then Zeph bit again, harder this time. Cee sighed, dropping the iPad onto his chest and yanking off the headphones. "You deadass?" Zeph grinned against his skin. "Been deadass." Cee huffed, tilting his head to the side in surrender. "You so fuckin' annoying." Zeph just chuckled, lips finding Cee's jaw. "Yeah, but you love me though."

Two years have passed since 𝐙𝐈𝐎𝐍 made his decision and kissed Ameri before being shipped off for his first Army duty. He didn't have a choice about leaving. But that kiss? No explanation needed. That was him letting his actions say what needed to be said. 𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐑𝐈 Now 20 years old, a college dropout, he got himself caught up in the same life Zion warned him about. The exact shit he said Ameri wasn't built for. And that kiss? Ameri didn't think nothing of it. It never even crossed his mind that all the attention, the way 𝐙𝐈𝐎𝐍 always watched over him, shielded him, and pushed him toward school, was anything more than normal. To him, that was Zion being Zion. It was just an "I'ma miss you, lil bro." Never once did it cross his mind that a foundation had been building towards that moment. 𝗡𝗼𝘄 𝗭𝗶𝗼𝗻'𝘀 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸.

"Pond, I am terrified to leave you but I can't have you, why don't you understand!! This- us- it'll destroy everything." "I don't want to understand!! All I know is how much I want you right now, sunshine." "Stop.." "Make me." Pond Naravit Letratkosum, 18 year old high schooler from Valeria High stood in the middle of a promising future with his music, growing fan base and familial support. Pond had his life planned out until he stumbled upon Phuwin Tangsakyuen, his newly arrived sharp-tongued next door neighbour who shares his school, his neighbourhood, his music club and basically just the air around him. What began as playful banter and teasing comfort slowly turns into something far deeper - a bond shaped by trauma, silence, and feelings left unspoken. And then, life happened. Years later, Pond and Phuwin are forced back under the same roof, confronting old wounds, rising fame, and the lingering pull they never truly escaped. But is this connection merely a habit formed through pain and survival- or has it always been love? Because some people never truly leave your system. And some love stories do not end simply because time passes. The story contains mature themes- emotional trauma, childhood neglect, constant criticism, guilt, regret, death, healing, smut and mpreg. If you are uncomfortable with those please skip the chapters. Side couples~ JoongDunk WilliamEst GeminiFourth #1 in narawins #2 in gaypride

Phuwin never expected a random notification to change his life. When an app predicts that he'll fall in love with Pond Naravit in ninety days, he dismisses it as a ridiculous joke. After all, Pond is just the handsome engineering student everyone admires from afar. But as the days pass, Phuwin finds himself noticing Pond more and more-the quiet kindness, the unwavering patience, and the way he always seems to be there when Phuwin needs him most. What begins as curiosity slowly turns into friendship, then something deeper. Yet behind the prediction lies a secret Pond has been carrying for years. A story about being understood too deeply, protected too softly, and discovering that love isn't something an algorithm can predict-it's something you choose. A slow-burn romance filled with humor, longing, jealousy, comfort, and the kind of love that waits patiently to be seen.
