"I'm stupid," John says. "Why?" "Because I fell in love with you." "Yeah," Sherlock responds, "Definitely stupid." Set over the course of one school year in 2009, this is the story of two star-crossed misfits - Sherlock and John - smart enough to know that first love almost never lasts, but brave and desperate enough to try. They struggle through identity crisis, drug addiction, and child abuse together, along with dealing with the pain of a highschool that labels them as freaks. When Sherlock meets John, they spark a love that will remind you of your first - and how hard it pulled you under.

"Let me tell you the story, about what happens when a heart as cold as ice meets one made of gold." What happens to the things that nobody can remember? Are they forgotten? Did they mean anything at all? Did they even exist at some point? All his life, Connor has been told that he must forget. That he must let go and move on, and live the life he has been gifted with, even after the tragedy. But Connor doesn't want that. He keeps in mind the same series of noises over and over, every day, just to get by and to convince himself that it wasn't just a dream. That it happened. That it was real. That he was real. For the past ten years he has been moving from place to place, with barely any interest to accommodate himself. That is until he reaches that town... and meets him. Funny, how it works in the ways of the heart.

Phil is an orphan, bullied, and living alone with no friends in a home. He does his best not to let that fact that no one seems to care about him get to him, but it's getting harder. Then a nice couple start to take interest in him, and it turns out they have a son his age, Daniel, but the love they begin to share isn't of a brotherly nature...

Troye moves to California to have a better life for himself and to become successful. He works two jobs that don't pay that much and barely gets by with just living in a small apartment in LA. He finally gets the courage to apply for a job at Franta Records, which he gets. After a little while of working there, he starts to get noticed by Connor Franta, the Founder of Franta Records. After finding out who this Australian is, he becomes quite intrigued with him and starts introducing Troye to the finer things in life. After some time Connor tells Troye that he has greater intentions than some short love affair, and offers Troye a deal that would turn his world upside down, in exchange for his freedom. Warning: There will definitely be a lot of smut in story. Not sure when, but there will be. I most likely won't give a warning, it'll just happen. Also, this is a BDSM type of fic, like 50 Shades of Grey but less masochism and no emotional abuse. There will be no triggers like rape, self harm, etc. If I put something in and I think it may be triggering, I'll make sure to put a trigger warning at the beginning of the chapter.
