DISCLAIMER: I do not own this story. All credit for the original content goes to Anna Green of @beggarsnotes on livejournal. Basically I put THROAM into a gangsta translator and I had to share it. "I have swerved mah hoopty onto his fuckin lane, n' our crazy asses have collided yet again. Crash. Bang. Smoke."

"We will survive this world, together." "Promise?" "I promise."

A few months after their first album "LOUDer" came out, R5 was getting bigger than ever. The drummer of the band, Ellington Ratliff, is unexpectedly out of the relationship he's been in with his girlfriend Kelly for longer than four years. No one saw it coming. But could it be possible that the only girl in the band, Rydel, likes him? Could her feelings for him lead to something very, very bad? ON HOLD

ALL CREDITS GO TO "fullcollapse" on livejournal for this absolutely beautiful story. Mostly AU, high school age setting. With the help of his friends, Ryan has just learned how to like life. Brendon hasn't yet found such luck. This is a story about strong relationships, trust, not wanting to be alone, and holding hands. There's a river, and just like its never-ending path to the ocean, some things just go on forever. Sometimes you need someone more than you need yourself, and sometimes, that's okay. Rating: R. Word count: 200,000+

When Cyrus finds a playlist on TJ's desktop full of old love songs, he realizes that TJ has never been a scary basketball guy but rather a huge sap. TJ just wished Cyrus could realize that all of those songs remind him of a certain boy who likes chocolate chocolate chip muffins without telling him directly. With insecurities and fears almost set in stone, it's hard for TJ to admit that he has a heart aching crush on Cyrus who is trying to avoid just that. Of course, it doesn't seem like both of them are trying to get over each other when they're always together.
