"I fucking hate you." "You shouldn't really say things like that when my dick is up your ass, Norris." Two hot-headed athletes with overflowing rage and unwinding sex drive is very much never a good combo. Bryce and Ian never see eye to eye on things. Despite being caged in the same group of friends in the same swimming team of the - yes, you guessed it - same high school, the star swimmers of Norton High hadn't exactly made good first impressions to each other on the ill-fated day they met, and let's just say things spiraled horribly from there. The two rage-fueled boys always thought that they're in this feud for the long haul until one argument escalated into something that at no point in any of their lives would they allow to happen if only they did not get a little too out of control. Sex. There's a thin line between love and hate, and Bryce and Ian's barrier just keeps getting thinner and thinner. A.K.A. Bryce and Ian were fuckbuddies... up until they weren't.

[bxb, completed ✔] "Listen, just because ... that ... happened last night doesn't mean we're friends now, a'right? And I don't expect you to go blabbing, yeah?" The blond tried to step back, but the realization that he was against the sink didn't make his intention follow through. He had no choice but to endure the limited space between them. Glancing up, he timidly met eyes with the person that towered over him, effortlessly. "I-I won't..." *** Falling for someone like Xander Love wasn't difficult. With celestial physical features, a friendly demeanor, equally attractive friends, wealth, and to top it off, the perfect family, Xander would no doubt make the perfect boyfriend, best friend, and companion all in one. He was on top of his game. He was perfect-- Perfect. --at least, that's what it seemed like to everyone from afar. After a mortifying leak, Sage found himself on the end of an unfortunate, first-hand experience that Xander was neither as perfect nor nice as he made himself out to be. ━━━━❰･❉･❱━━━━ ©ReeseTory2018

"I'm not gay" "Then stay the fuck away from me," he looked at the sunshine before him, defiance in his beautiful eyes, being difficult and stubborn. Oh how he wanted to whisk him away to an island no one would find them. How he tempted him. "I can't do that either, and so I was hoping maybe we could be friends." "Friends?" he almost laughed at how absurd the situation was. "Friends don't do the kinds of things I want to do to you." _______________________________________ Brady doesn't know what he's done when he comes into Leo's life. But he does know one thing.

August 2, 2012. The day humanity fell. Having gone through an environmental cataclysm, planet earth has deteriorated into a vast wilderness inhabiting the aftermath of the war that pulverized populations. The remainder of humanity's strongest reside in the protection of Strongholds, where clusters of cities strive within massive walls that separate the remaining humans from the man-eating monsters that nearly sent them into extinction. In this time, humanity's strongest are sent out to take back their fallen planet, but when the walls fall, all bets are placed on the outside and the unknown forces that reside in the supposed uninhabitable. Fang is one of many survivors left after the fall of his Stronghold, and he, along with the companions he's gathered along the way, must rely on their abilities as they undergo a dangerous battle that may or may not cost them their lives: the battle of ultimate survival.
