"What is your type, then?" I jolt, his question catching me off guard. Rolling my head to the side to look at him, blades of grass press against my cheek. Thank god he's not watching me because he can't see the war happening inside of my head. On the contrary, Miles eyes are fluttered shut, one of his hands resting on his stomach. Every inch of his dark skin is illuminated by the moon, like angels poured silver glitter over him. There's no part of his body that isn't tastefully sculpted, almost like he took a shearing knife to his muscles before coming here simply to carve out a perfect body to tease me with. His t-shirt pulls taunt with each breath. The fabric catches on his muscles. The words are caught in the back of my throat. You. You have always been my type. Instead, I snort. "Whatever it is, it sure as hell wasn't her." - - - Parker Graham is totally content to be living his normal life. He has everything a teenage boy could dream of: rich parents, a nice car, crazy athletic skills, the star spot on the football team, and girls from around the state chasing his every move. But that contentment is stirred up when Miles Holt moves into town. Miles is everything that Parker isn't: steadfast, tall, a party animal, bilingual, black, and openly gay... which he has no problem admitting nor proving. And, to Parker's dismay, it's love at first sight. In order to keep his life straight and continue the image of perfection, Parker cannot let out the secret of his sexuality due to his scholarships and quarterback reputation on the line. Miles shouldn't get attached regarding a court law for his messed up family. They won't risk everything just to have one shot at keeping each other in the end... will they? [boyxboy] [FINALLY COMPLETE!!! votes & comments are always appreciated!! 🤍]

Ian has always had one goal and one goal only-to get drafted for the National Hockey League. Nothing has ever thrown him off course from this, except for one boy from his past who he used to do figure skating with. Finn never liked hockey. The only reason he joined the team was to look at cute guys, start some fights on the ice (because it looked fun), and to learn more about the boy who mysteriously left figure skating class one day years ago and never returned. When Ian gets tasked with training Finn so that they can actually be a decent team and get to nationals this year, they rediscover their mutual love for figure skating, despite Ian's dad forcing him to stop years ago, and Ian finds himself regretting ever leaving it for ice hockey. Despite refusing to ever allow himself to fall in love ever again, Finn gets dangerously close to breaking that boundary. The closer they get to nationals, the more their bond grows, and the more Ian finds himself distracted from this goal he had set years ago, because of the boy who brought back a spark in Ian he thought he'd lost forever. Now, Ian has to make the decision whether he wants to keep this newfound bond, or risk losing it forever for something they might not even win anyway. ***

There's something brewing between them. There has been for a while. Tension. It's palpable. Unavoidable. However, neither of them do feelings.

Eden Woods has spent his entire life searching for something. He spends his days working at a cafe in France, taking photos to pass the time, then going out on weekends, losing himself in the nights. Only, despite all the soul searching, he can never quite shake the feeling that he's missing something. Then, after a drunken, almost definitely accidental tattoo, Eden meets Avery. The one who did it. He's a tempest. Blustering and bold. Fiery and flirtatious. Avery Romano is a mystery in a bottle, and all Eden wants is to figure him out. Slowly, Eden starts to think that maybe Avery is exactly what he's been searching for. When Avery begins to frequent Eden's cafe, the two begin to forge a bond, and slowly but surely, their paths begin to grow together like intertwining vines climbing up the same wall. For a while, life goes on. Then obviously, things get complicated.
