My name is Ryle Paolo Santiago and I'm inlove with my best friend. But before him, let's talk about me. I am 19 yrs. old and I live in Amsterdam, Netherlands. I came here when I was 7 yrs. old when we used to live in the Philippines, I don't even know how to speak tagalog anymore, and a few months later my parents found out I was gay. They didn't accept me, my dad would get home and beat me up and mom would embarrass me in front of our family. That was the start of all the pain and the feelings. Then when I was at the park I met him. Ronnie Alonte. A jock, the first guy I fell in love with. He already knows I was gay. And then he told the whole school that who ever bullies me will have to go through him first. It has been 6 years since we stayed like this. Every time I open up that topic he closes it. I have been showing him how much I love him. And then I met his cousin.

Book 1 HomeLess Book 2 ReckLess Book 3 SenseLess Being homeless isn't the end of the world. At least, that's what Zachary thought when he found himself on the streets after being kicked out at seventeen. It hadn't been his fault. His father had used him as a scapegoat and won his mother over, thinking that her husband was telling the truth about his cheating and that Zachary was the one who was bringing women over, trying to ruin their marriage. He'd argued his side, but once his mother decided on something, her mind would not be changed. That's how he came to live in the alley near the end of 73rd street between the old bakery and a laundromat. It wasn't anything special, but after three years he'd managed to spruce up the place and make it almost-bearable to live in. Over the years he'd made friends with random people he often passed on the streets and did manage to hold down a few random jobs, but like everything else, they came, then went. Now he was left with fifteen dollars and twenty-two cents, a torn blanket, one outfit, and a dream for a better life. He just didn't know that he'd find it somewhere he'd never thought to look... or with someone he never knew he'd want.

"Never call a girl a bitch," I glared into his eyes as he opened them, piercing into me, the bright blue drink I had just poured over him still dripping from his dark hair. "Or she just might act like one." I gave him one last sarcastic smile before pushing by him and walking away, practically strutting.
