Troye Sivan has seen too much for a 17 year old boy who finds himself in another foster home, and he's become absolutely unwilling to try to claim any of the house or family as his own. He's doing everything in his power to leave again soon. Besides, his real family is broken, and his true childhood home has been deemed a crime scene. Troye has nothing to lose. Connor Franta has a world full of secrets ranging from his sexuality, relationship abuse, still being caught up on the tragic death of his best friend, and much more. All of this is hidden under lock and key from his divorced parents, and he doesn't want to find out what would happen if his secrets let loose. Connor is holding on to the shreds of what remains from the life he has, and he's got everything to lose.

contains disney movies, picnics, flower metaphors, roller skating, plastic stars, stolen journals, lake water, anonymous mixtapes, first place medals, bomber jackets, short skirts, and gender (or the lack of it). ------------------------------------------------ ♡ nonbinary!troye tronnor au ♡

In which Connor is a twenty two year old single father taking care of a three year old and happens to fall in love with the gorgeous stripper that gives him a private dance

Connor thinks that Troye is a narcissistic asshole who only does one-night stands. Troye thinks that Connor is an obnoxious jock who is friends only with fuckboys. They are both wrong.

Connor has a secret, and only Tyler knows. Or so he thought at first, before he felt betrayed. Troye knows that secret, and nobody knows. Now he is both curious and afraid.

Troye Mellet is not popular. He's middle class in the teenage hierarchy and the head of the bitter kids. Cocky "populars" and superficial teens are his enemies, and high-school society his hell. But, behind the social ruse that is his hatred, there is a deep sadness. Loneliness; bottled and festering into complete misery. Connor Franta is popular, and he is weighed down by that label. He's the shyest one of his group, the vulnerable one, the easiest one to tease. Terrified of losing his "friends," even with their constant bullying, Connor's life is a whirlwind of anxiety. He's miserable, but the idea of sitting alone at lunch shakes him to his core. When a group of underdog teachers notice their unfortunate similarities, these seemingly polar opposites are brought together. Both boys find life-altering answers, love and comfort within a person they've been trained to hate. After all, since when did the truest kind of love care about status? TW: self-harm, eating disorders, talk of suicide, gun violence, smoking. (Nothing to the extent of a mature content filter)

I should introduce myself; my name is Connor Franta, very nice to meet you. Maybe you would like to join me inside my head? I would like someone to listen to my story.

"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.
