I just smirked at the way they all looked down on me. The way they all try to trip me down and glare like they can kill me with one look. I could easily laugh their stupidity and small minds as I make it through the day the way I've always done it. By myself. With no friends. No family. I don't cry myself to sleep hoping that my prince will come and save me... I don't beg those dimwitted jocks to stop giving me a hard time whenever they get the chance. I don't try to fit in when the person I'll hurt the most is myself by lying. I don't wish that my dead parents will come back when I know they won't. I don't do this because I, Carter Summers, am a strong willed person that knows the sad fact that this.... This... is my reality..... When Carter gets a small request from a teacher for his creative way of writing. He temporarily joins the newspaper club to gain extra credit to assure his scholarship. His job is to answer questions from the entire Newton High's students and give them advice. But since the entire population hates him for being homosexual, he does this in secret by answering within the papers, and goes by the name of... Reality. ***Cover by RougeHopes*** #19 in Teen Fiction

Cal Raney lives in a world where being gay is unheard of. When Cal finds himself falling in love with a boy who doesn't feel the same, the only way to profess his love is with a paper and a pen.

Cody is back in California - miserable and missing Tristan. Life is different since he got back from London and his friends seem distant and exclusive. He wants his boyfriend and he wants the thrill of saving the world. Careful what you wish for...

Emery Scott had a hell of a year. He moved states, restarted his whole life, made new friends, fell in love, came out of the closet all over again, had his heart broken...again. But when time came for summer, everything seemed to have finally fallen into place. Now senior year is approaching - fast - and as it arrives, it seems like everything flips on its head. Katy is bitter and resentful that all her friends have what she doesn't, Jess isn't sure if she made the right choice by being with Nate, Drew is unsure about confronting Toby with his alcohol problem, Alana's old demons come back to haunt her, and Emery...well, when Emery begins hiding things from Luke, who knows if things will ever be the same again? NOTE: THIS IS A SEQUEL! It will not make any sense to you if you haven't read the first book (Boys Will Be Boys), which is on my profile.

BOOK ONE Coming out was supposed to set Julian free. Instead, it left him with a broken arm, a mother who won't stop preaching, and a silence that grows heavier every day. High school feels like a cage, and Julian is certain he doesn't belong anywhere-until Paul crashes into his world. With his inked skin, effortless charm, and a following that makes him untouchable, Paul should be the last person Julian lets close. Loving Paul means risking exposure, rejection, and heartbreak all over again. Worse, it means facing the cruelest voice of all-the one inside Julian's own head. Tender, raw, and unflinching, Open is a story about first love, first heartbreak, and finding the courage to believe you're worthy of both. ::: I could feel it when his body finally went slack, when he'd fallen asleep and soft snores emitted. And I thought I was getting better at this breaking down thing... I honestly did but when I was alone, I seemed to fall apart. Endless serenades of how worthless I'd been and how destructive I was; I was a disappointment to literally everyone and I hated it. My breathing became shallow as I cried for the second time that day, finally feeling content being immersed in guilt. A shudder wracked through my body, tears escaping and Paul pulled me closer as he woke silently. Mumbling soft nothings against my skin and kissing it to slow my breathing, he tried to lull me to sleep, "It's okay, you're okay." Refusing to speak -my voice failing me- his arm came up to wrap around my shoulder and I held him there, placing a small kiss to his tattooed skin in a broken sign of gratitude, I must've run out of tears. And I felt at ease.
