Everything in Matt Winchester's relative normal tips off its axis the moment he realizes he's in love with his best friend and roommate, Topher Stanton - and he has no idea what to do about it.
There are few secrets between Matt and Topher - less when Topher comes out as bisexual - and life carries on like normal except Matt's feelings threaten to drown him. If that happens...well, he'd rather never tell Topher if that means he doesn't have to watch Topher walk away from him.
Topher's nobody's fool, and he can see Matt's frayed edges even if he doesn't know the cause of them. Every time he thinks about taking the chance to tell Matt he's in love with him, the idea of watching Matt - like so many others - leave him without a second glance, keeps him silent.
Something's got to give between the two of them, and no matter which way the chips fall, things between Matt and Topher won't ever be the same.

Ridiculous: Mattory
'I hear Mallory's voice before I see her, and I feel a grin spread across my face as she emerges from the hallway. "Oh, hey Matt, you did make it," she says, throwing me a dazzling smile. I don't know how she does it, but one of those smiles never fails to light up the entire room. Is it any wonder I fall a little bit more in love with her every time I see one?' How long has Matt been in love with Mallory? 'Approximately forever,' according to just about everyone. But he's willing to love her from afar, certain she'll never feel the same... until one fateful night at a Christmas party changes everything. As the "Mattory" craze begins to move from the realm of fantasy to reality, one thing's for sure-at Studio C, things are bound to get ridiculous. And not everyone is happy about it.

The House
A charming roommate. A hopeless crush. A coming-of-age MM romance full of humor, heart, and heat. Liam // I didn't plan on falling for my roommate. I just wanted to survive college without embarrassing myself in front of Morgan-who, for the record, is everything I'm not. He's confident, charming, and somehow even looks good doing laundry. I keep telling myself it's just a crush, that the late-night talks and inside jokes don't mean anything. But every time he smiles at me, it feels less like a phase and more like falling. He's completely out of my depth. Morgan // Liam's chaos shouldn't be my problem, but somehow, it's become my favorite part of the day. He's awkward, loud, and way too easy to care about. I've had flings before, sure, but nothing that's ever felt like this-like coming home to someone who actually sees me. The rules were simple: don't get attached. But with Liam, the line between friendship and something real keeps blurring, and I'm not sure I want to stop it anymore. 📖 Part of The House Collection The House is part of The House Collection, a series of interconnected queer romances about messy friendships, found family, and falling in love when you least expect it.

I'm In Love With My Best Friend (Greyson Chance FanFic) | Editing
From strangers to best friends to lovers to best friends to strangers. A punitive realism that’s etched both in our cores and minds. It is the forbidding cycle of life. The world is round and everything goes back the way it was in the beginning. History repeats itself, as what they say. Most people would say you’ll end up wasting your time, ruining your relationship, and breaking each other’s hearts. But, what if life gives you a second chance to chase what you’ve been longing for? Will you take bold risks and chase the prevalent desires of your heart? Or will you rather stay in the shadows-- wallowed in disillusionment, despair, and regrets? ------------- AUTHOR’S NOTE (BEFORE YOU START READING THE STORY): This is a work of a thirteen year old Claire. KINDLY APPROACH WITH CAUTION! THIS STORY IS UNDER MAJOR CONSTRUCTION. ((I am taking down the chapters. I know, I know. I will try to update it as often as possible)).

Why should I even have any feelings for anyone? Wouldn't it just make complete sense to fuck around? That was no one could break my heart or hurt me. I'd be perfectly fine after, right? ~ After suddenly losing his boyfriend to soccer, Ethan finds that the perfect solution is to fuck around and do what he pleases.
