The rest of the world dropped away. A spotlight shown down on the two of them as they sat across the table from one another.
   "Did you ever think about me in a romantic way?" he asked plainly.

    Have you ever looked back on a friendship that had long since run its course and thought about how things went, all the questions you never asked, all the things you never said? Ever wonder how different it would have been if you had? Ever wish you could now?
    Strangers With History is the story of just that; two former friends reunited, sitting down over a cup of coffee to catch up and reminisce until one of them seizes the opportunity to say something they always wished they had.

For Him, I Stayed by rxeii_sean
53 parts Complete Mature
Title: For Him, I Stayed Written by Sean - Photo not mine! Credits to the rightful owner! (This was originally named as "Love Her, Not Me") "He searched the world for love, never seeing it with him all along." Ray and Matthew met as freshmen in high school, instantly bonding over shared interests and a quiet understanding. Ray, the younger of two siblings, lived under the shadow of his older brother, Skyler, a well-liked, confident student who later pursued a medical career and married his high school sweetheart, Avilian. Matthew, in contrast, was an only child but had a sprawling network of cousins who filled his life with constant chaos and fun. During high school, Ray struggled with self-esteem. He was bullied for his appearance and withdrawn, relying on Matthew as a pillar of support. Despite Ray's insecurities, his gentle humor and genuine nature made him shine in Matthew's eyes, even if he didn't initially recognize the depth of Ray's affection. As they navigated high school, Ray secretly fell in love with Matthew, confessing his feelings not once, but three times, each time hoping for a different answer. Each rejection stung more deeply, eventually leading Ray to withdraw, hurt yet unable to forget. Now in their third year of college, Ray has grown from the insecure, pimpled high schooler into a confident young man with a striking new appearance. Meanwhile, Matthew, who once viewed Ray as just his best friend, finds himself missing the old closeness and wondering if he might have taken his friend's presence for granted. Caught between old heartbreak and new realizations, the pair stands on the edge of a shifting friendship that may yet bloom into something unexpected.

How to Save a Star [BxB]

14 parts Complete

"Do you know that stars die?" I asked, breaking the silence. I didn't know where the question came from, but that's the only thing that came to mind. "Yeah," he answered. "And some stars we see in the sky may be already dead. But they're so far away that their afterglow can still be seen above. Some of them may seem glowing but they're truly dead." We all have a little gallery of photographic memories inside our hearts. An exhibit of things we could never forget through our short moments in time. Some were so good, we held it like they were the best part of our lives while some were things we desperately ran away from - they hunted us, and killed our hopes. The beginning of my life ended on my tenth birthday, the day when my childhood was stolen away from me. I longed to run away from that nightmare that held me tightly in my neck and made me helpless under its grasp. Going to college had become my final chance to run away. On my seventeenth birthday, after enrolling at a university, my life took another shift. I met a man who showed me the glimmer of hope I always wanted to see. And this was our story. A narration of first love, bittersweet and worthwhile. DISCLAIMER: This novella primarily contains gay romance. Read at your own risk.
