Because sitting three rows and catercorner from Jake in his astronomy class is Skylar Glass. The insightful, attractive, interesting, starry-eyed juvenile delinquent, whose existence exceeds average in Jake's opinion. Skylar introduces Jake to the other side of life, gives him a new reason to look at the sky, and leaves a trail of stardust that prevents Jake's existence from ever being average again.

Everything in Matt Winchester's relative normal tips off its axis the moment he realizes he's in love with his best friend and roommate, Topher Stanton - and he has no idea what to do about it. There are few secrets between Matt and Topher - less when Topher comes out as bisexual - and life carries on like normal except Matt's feelings threaten to drown him. If that happens...well, he'd rather never tell Topher if that means he doesn't have to watch Topher walk away from him. Topher's nobody's fool, and he can see Matt's frayed edges even if he doesn't know the cause of them. Every time he thinks about taking the chance to tell Matt he's in love with him, the idea of watching Matt - like so many others - leave him without a second glance, keeps him silent. Something's got to give between the two of them, and no matter which way the chips fall, things between Matt and Topher won't ever be the same. (Author's Note: I'm in the process of rewriting Two for the Rent [hence the new title]. Hopefully you'll like this new and improved version as much or more than the first. Thank you all so much for your support, comments, and votes. I deeply appreciate it.)

Nearly one year after he moved into an off-campus apartment, Matt Winchester finds himself in a similar scenario in a different city. As always, Topher Stanton's there to ease the transition, and his cousin Delia is along for the ride. Matt hasn't come away from four years of college debt free, and without a steady job a dollar is getting harder and harder to stretch. While he's completely comfortable with his growing and evolving relationship with Topher, the real world's going to put a squeeze on him he can't ignore. He knows better than to take anything for granted, but Topher can't help himself. He's got the guy, a good job, a steady roof over his head, and the chance to nail down a definition of home he hasn't been able to lay claim to before. But life has a sense of humor and a wicked curve, and Topher's going to have to find balance in a constantly moving world. Delia's not quite sure where she fits into this madhouse, but she knows one thing for sure - it's going to be a hell of a summer.

Four years ago Matt Winchester never would have believed he'd be getting married so soon out of college, let alone marry the man who was also his best friend: Topher Stanton. But the prospect of permanently putting a ring on it doesn't mean the world stops turning. There's still some fallout of their public outing from the Baincroft Gala and that was only the beginning to stirring up the Stanton family hornets' nest. Lives and relationships are shifting, every other holiday turns out to be a disaster, Topher still doesn't know what to do about his mother, and the future, as always, is an uncertainty met with a cocky smile and a cup of coffee. The only thing they do know for sure is they're getting married. Whether or not that will go off without a hitch remains to be seen but Matt knows it wouldn't be half as much fun if life was predictable.

"Meat" has been a call-guy in Chicago's gay district for over a year and seems largely satisfied with his job. Until a peculiar new client makes him question if he should be serving his meat to everyone.

Timothy Sheffield has a very interesting ritual. It happens the first day of each month in Pasadena's number one place for literature - Vroman's Bookstore. This habit of his does not involve books however. It is all about that one fab and famous glossy that California loves to read - Out & About magazine. Will he find love in the pages with the smallest of prints? And when he does, how would he know if it's indelible?

Note: This book will only be on Wattpad until 10/16/2017. It's currently in the process of publishing, hopefully you guys understand! When Harper woke to the sound of moving trucks next door, he knew things would be different. The last neighbors had been rather unpleasant and he wasn't sad to see them go. In their place, the Stanfields moved in. Being the only gay couple in the neighborhood, the men knew they had to be friendly, but what starts off as flirtatious banter with the teenager next door turns into something much more dangerous. Harper's parents don't know he's not interested in girls. What Harper has his eyes set on are the Stanfield men, and he won't rest until he's in their good graces - and in their bed. Trouble's just moved in next door, and though he's not religious, Harper stands by one idea; he's a very... firm believer in loving thy neighbor.

-------Currently going through an edit------- Oliver can't cope with the loss of his identical twin, Dylan, so his mother makes him attend grief counseling.

But he doesn't feel like it ever will. He blames himself for the accident that took his twin away from him. At eighteen, he feels like there's nothing left to live for. Wesley lost his wife to cancer three years ago. After months of hibernation, his sister steps in and convinces him to get help.

One meeting changes both of their fates and starts their process of really healing. **Warning: Vulgar language and male/male action. If it's not your thing, you might want to back away now. :)

Price Bigg + Jeremy Smalle = Best Friends. If Price Bigg x Googly Eyes at his best friend = ALWAYS and Jeremy Smalle + Basic Comprehension Skills = Syntax Error, solve the following problem: Price Bigg can't quite solve his goofy best friend, Jeremy Smalle, amateur high school swimmer and professional alien conspiracy theorist. He devices the equation A+B=4(x) to try and solve him, but he can't quite complete, or solve it. Jeremy thinks he may have made another mistake by suggesting that his newly out friend take Jeremy on a date. Everything's coolio and majorly fabuloso at first. But then the hand holding and the constant math jokes and the standing so close to each other start to make him think he's the biggest idiot ever. He can't quite tell why he feels so strange about them. He expresses this feeling with the equation fu=x. Task: Solve for X. Round your answer to the nearest heartbeat.
