Kellin has a lot of issues which he covers up with acting out and being down right sassy. Vic, his new guidance counselor and teacher, however sees right through his carefree act. Vic just wants to help him, like any guidance counselor would, but he didn't expect to get so close.

This is the sequel to It's Harder Breathing Next To You. It's set three years later and...well I don't want to put up a summary just in case there are people who haven't read IHBNTY and want to read it and don't want spoilers. --- If you have the original cover PM me please :(

Kellin moves from Michigan to California with his abusive drunk of a father. He was bullied at his old school and wants to fly under the radar at his new one, unfortunately for him he gets on the bad side of Vic, the leader of the school who turns everyone against him. However, behind Vic's tough demeanor is someone who will do anything for the people he loves. ***Story is not mine!!!***

Sweet, innocent Kellin Quinn has been taken by a psychopath and locked up in his basement. His only source of comfort being the boy locked up in the room next to his, Vic. Why has he been brought here and what are the lunatic's intentions?.....

(TRIGGER WARNING. Contains many suicide themes) After a bad break-up with his boyfriend, Kellin feels like he's left with nothing, so he attempts suicide. Now he's thrown into suicide watch and there's only one person who he feels like opening up to; the positive and cheery volunteer, Vic.

Being a real man has nothing to do with what's underneath your clothing. Kellin's about to find that out first hand when his high school crush Victoria, better known now as Vic, comes back into the picture after two years of radio silence.

What if you could hear them? The thoughts they deigned not reasonable enough to say out loud, the things not suitable for even a giggly teenage gossip conversation. Would it be a blessing or a curse? Troye, the unlucky teenager bestowed with this 'gift', thinks of it as a curse, with good reason. Do you know how hard it is to keep a relationship with someone when you know exactly what they think of you? Impossible. It's impossible. Or at least that's what Troye thinks, considering he's given up on even trying to make it work. He's different, people shun different. People hate different. And it's better to go under the radar, to be nothing, than to be hated. Right? Tyler, on the other hand, has taken a different approach to a similar problem. No, he can't 'read minds', but he does have a part of himself he doesn't want a soul to know about. He's quarterback, every girl's dream guy, an academic mastermind, and he's also gay. He's seen how different kids get treated, hell, he's been the one to treat them that way before. Why on Earth would he ever wish that on himself? No, it's easier to hide, to be someone you're not, than to be hated. Right?

Dan is different. He's learned to accept that. Well, as best he can anyway, considering he's never really had much of a choice. It's been this way for as long as he can remember, the constant runaround process of trying to feel normal. His life is built around it, trying to trick both himself and everyone he interacts with into seeing him as your average person. The isolation as he desperately tries to keep others from finding out, the bitterness that wells up inside of him each and every time he's reminded that he'll never be like everyone else, the fear that nothing will ever change. He's fated to be this way forever; a misfit from society. Isolation can only go so far though, so when he's struggling to make ends meet and he's faced with the option of looking into a serious job or taking on a roommate, he opts for what seems like the easier option at the time. It doesn't seem so easy ten failed roommates into the process, or when he sits down at a table to meet with prospect number eleven and ends up with a coffee spilled all over his lap. Potential roommate number eleven, Phil, turns out to be an insufferable optimistic ball of sunshine that Dan wants nothing to do with. His options are running out though, as are the savings he's been using to pay his rent, so he finds himself begrudgingly agreeing to let the other man move in. Neither of them have any way of knowing just what they've gotten themselves into as they shake on the matter, but time will tell.

Set in an underground club, drama does as drama does by inhibiting the wants and needs of Tony Perry and Mike Fuentes. Too far gone to give up the lifestyle, they cope. After all, who needs love when you have sex, drugs, and rock & roll? © 2014 messjon
