Every Tuesday during football practice, sixteen year old Sem Bolton finds himself stealing glances at the gorgeous college boy jogging down the path next to the fields. He was his dirty little secret. His guilty pleasure. His unobtainable fantasy: safe and distant on the other side of the chainlink fence. Then, through a series of unpleasant events including being forced on a camping trip, it turns out his unobtainable fantasy is not so unobtainable after all. Not only is gorgeous college boy gay as well, he also wants to date Sem. Now, Sem was never one to play it safe. But outing himself was in a whole different league than testing his mother's patience or taking hits in the boxing ring. Was he really ready to date a guy, all consequences included? As if internal struggles weren't enough, count on girls, friends, and an estranged brother, to complicate stuff even further. Photo on the cover by: https://unsplash.com/@nickkarvounis

After the scene where Elio cries in front of the fireplace

Alex's brother just died and the only person there for him is his best friend, Jack. But what is really going on? Jack is acting strange. And is Alex developing feelings for him? Would Jack return those feelings? And even IF they got together, could they make it work? I know that the first chapter is maybe not so good, but it gets much better after you get past it.

"jack?" "yeah alex?" "i think i love you."

Jack first noticed it when he was younger. His crush on Alex. It started off small when they would cuddle together, and it kept on growing. From their first kiss that meant absolutely nothing to Alex and kept Jack up at night, to all of the meaningless kisses and intimate moments they shared, his crush grew. Alex may be with Lisa, but that doesn't mean Jack is going to give up......

Jack is very confident, and loved to have fun. He took risks, and made people laugh. He was extremely cocky. He loved to control people, and stood up for himself, and others. On the other hand, alex is very shy, and doesn't know what to do when jack puts him on the spot. Jack is determined to make alex his and alex is a bit annoyed. Alex is very nervous and self conscious when it comes to jack. Jack makes him uncomfortable, but alex secretly likes it. And no matter how hard he tries to deny it, to deny that he's gay for jack, he knows deep down he's starting to like him. Will alex go in denial, and reject jack, and hurt him emotionally? Or, will jack take control?

Living with a strict religious family isn't easy for any teenager, especially a transgender one. Born as Riley, preferred name Ryan. He knew that coming out was inevitable, but he certainly didn't expect it by his mother spying on his tumblr. So Ryan is thrown out of his house. With no other supportive family to turn to, who will take care of this smol trans boy? //trigger warnings for depression, suicidal thoughts, transphobia, and self harm// **this fic is discontinued lmao there will never be an update**

Alex has started teaching at his new school. Jack is one of his students.
