[BxB] Waking up next to someone after having a little too much to drink was no new, riveting story in this day and age. Waking up next to another boy, when you were also a boy, was a little more interesting, but still nothing to write home about. But waking up in Nico Beckett's sheets? To Wesley, it was a nightmare come to life. ~~~ Wesley Dillon's life was uneventful, and frankly, he liked it that way. He didn't get into trouble, he kept his grades up, he played it safe. He never did anything to rock the boat he was floating in, the calm waters of his lake left undisturbed. Now starting his last year in high school, Wes was content to continue living his life as he always has - but sometimes, and only sometimes, he caught himself wishing that something could make ripples in his tiny world. What he wasn't ready for were the waves that were Nico Beckett - a troublemaker, womaniser, and an incredibly popular boy at his school. He was everything Wes was not. Nico was the type of guy that Wes never wanted to associate with, but after waking up in his arms with panic in his chest and pains everywhere else, he realised that his life was going to get much, much more complicated. It took him everything to try not to drown as the waves pulled him further and further down. But, somewhere along the way, he wasn't sure that drowning was actually a bad thing. ~~~ #1 in romance (29/09/19) #1 in LGBT (07/09/2019) #1 in bxb (07/09/2019) #1 in boyxboy (08/09/2019) #1 in gay (11/09/2019) #1 in highschool (29/09/19) #1 in school (17/10/19) #1 in comingofage (01/10/19) #1 in slowburn (02/10/19) #1 in BL (04/10/19) #1 in lovetriangle (05/10/19) #1 in family (31/10/19) #1 in comingoutofthecloset (08/01/20) #1 in writtenwithpride (19/06/21) #4 in love (07/03/21)

ENEMIES WITH BENEFITS (BXB) Kyler and Ryan. Ryan and Kyler. No reason for them to be enemies, not much was different about either. Both were male, hot, and had short hair. They also had the same amount of hatred for eachother, pulling pranks in school to embarrassing their social life. One line they never crossed was laying a hand on the other, it was to harsh, to out of character for either. So when one prank was just enough to strike anger within the other, the consequences were interesting to see. •♤•♤• As sweet as it felt, the act was anything but. It wasn't a nice kiss it was a cruel punishing one as Ryan pressed his lips against Kylers strong enough to bruise "I've always wondered what happens when your not screaming at me in anger, and instead screaming at me with pleasure" he cocked his head in curiosity, pulling his face away making sure to keep Kylers lip stuck in between his teeth until the last second. "I bet I could make you scream loud enough the entire school would hear you" he wasn't teasing anymore, Ryan was being dead serious as he took Kylers earlier kiss as an invitation to be cruel and horrible. He didn't care if the kiss was only to get his grip to loosen, Ryan gave a huge challenging grin before he lowered his head. Ryan's lips attached to Kylers neck and he sucked, letting his hands wander until they brushed a crossed his hip bone to which Kyler jerked away slamming his āss into the wall with shock "you don't want to bruise it yet" Ryan smirked before removing every part of him that was touching Kyler, licking his lips as if tasting Kylers skin on his lips. "I'll see you later today-" and for dramatic effect Ryan licked Kylers neck one last time "strawberry" he concluded and took his leave, making sure to leave Kyler standing there on unsteady legs unsure of what just happened.
