The Orange Baby
Written by Buggsy Hunter

I don't know why I'm the way I am, locked inside a skin that I hate.
What did I do to deserve this curse???

Craigory wasn't born a normal kid. For one, he had orange skin. He was treated for jaundice, but it turned out he was just orange. A skin condition with no known cure. Craig grew up being bullied. "Cheeto-boy", "Carrot Face", and "Orange Baby" were his childhood. He never had any friends, and as his parents neglected him, he was alone. That is, however, until high school. Ninth grade brought new things to the table; new people, new teachers, new bullies, and... a new boy. Craig can't help but fall in love with Lukums, a handsome boy who is in every single class with Craigory. Craig doesn't want to admit that he's gay, as it would only add to the bullying. But when the truth comes out, can Craig finally live up to his true self?
