alternative band brothers highschool indy

Astronomy Class 5th period doesn't actually exist, but after a scheduling error Molly Williams, Sammy Jefferson, Wyatt Henders, and Harry Adams are all placed in the elusive class, they form together, bonding over music tastes to create the Parakeet Marquee a band that doesn't even leave Sammy's bedroom for a whole year. 

No one thinks that the 4 teens could be anything but a passing obsession, or that they could produce anything deeper than the usual YOLO songs with repetitive meaningless choruses and confusing lyrics. But Parakeet's Marquee is determined to be something more.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"It's the Parakeet's Marquee." 

"Parakeet's Marquee? What in the world is that?" 

"No, no, you're doing it wrong. Slur Parakeet, like Para-key, and then Marquee, if you say it right it rhymes."

The Band Geek | ✔️ by worldsofella

"We shouldn't do this-- I'm leaving in a few months." "What better time to start than now." "I thought I was just a music nerd to you." "You're not a 'music nerd...' you're a band geek. My band geek." --------------------------------- Hudson Diamante is the son and heir of KD Tech, a worldwide technology company. His parents decide to home a transfer student for publicity. Alannah Parker is a girl from the UK, transferring because she's considered a musical prodigy. She has an checkered past, not letting it show by covering it with a bright smile and happy attitude. Hudson isn't too fond of this transfer student. Before he even met her, he would call her a 'band geek.' He doesn't need any distractions, and needs to focus on his school work. Imagine his shock when he realizes this 'band geek' is prettier than most girls at his school. Once Alannah arrives in sunny Los Angeles, she is attracted to Hudson, but she doesn't need another guy like him in her life. She is there for one and one reason only-- to get away. She has a gift, one which she uses to escape. Escape her life, her sadness, her problems. Once drowned in music, she drops her facade of happiness.

It Was Always You / Style Southpark by CloudyOutsidehehe

Just a PS I still actively check and interact with this story, I love reading comments<3 Top 5 ratings: #1 in #stanxkyle 5/13/2024 #5 in #southpark 5/13/2024 #3 in #bebestevens 5/19/2024 #5 in #kylexstan 6/30/2024 #4 in #wendytestaburger 7/11/2024 #3 in #wendytestaburger 8/28/2024 #4 in #kennyxbutters 1/1/25 #4 in #bebestevens 1/1/25 #3 in #stabxkyle 1/21/25 #2 in #bebestevens Stan, Kyle, Kenny and Eric are l currently 14-15 and they are freshmen in high school. Of course after all the crazy shit that happened in 8th grade they were a bit apprehensive about starting high-school but it ended up not being that bad. It dosnt help that Stan and Wendy have been in a on and off toxic relation ship since like 7th grade though. That is until one day when Stan finds out Wendy is cheating on him. Then he makes a huge "mistake" that's going to change everything. Also as if recent something has been off with Kenny and Butters but nobody is sure what exactly is up with them. They just keep acting...weird. But that doesn't matter because everyone is so confused about everything and it's all fucking chaos. WARNING: mentions of sexual assault, sexual assault, clearly a lot of swearing, drinking, pretty much typical South-park shit. There will be lots of errors in logic and mistakes but its a fanfic so get over it. Also if you don't like it and feel the need to be an asshole go right ahead cause the comments and reads help, tysm :)

Her Brother's Best Friend - Aching Hearts Series #2 by TheWritingWolf1

If asked, baby Emily Robinson would have gleefully said that, her life revolved around two cornerstones: volleyball, Riley. Volleyball was the passion that gave her life. Riley was the "special friend" that fueled said passion and offered an otherwise insecure, shy little girl the means to grow up strong, confident, badass. Professional volleyball was a dream close to becoming true. Riley was reality. The most reassuring one. If asked, Emily would have said, she could not live without those two. That's why when, in a matter of months, she loses both, Emily's life starts spiraling down. The self consciousness about her looks goes from easily containable to fullout war waging deep inside her, menacing to bring her down any minute. So when, four years later, Riley comes back, he finds that his cutely shy Honeybee has turned into a beautiful quasi woman that is inexplicably paralyzed by fears. How can he help her regain the strength she had? And what happens when he starts realizing that indeed, his Honeybee is no longer a child, she's become a dangerously attractive girl. How can he help her fight her demons, without letting his mind and heart stray? He can't fall for the same child he used to babysit ... or can he? Highest rank #14 in General Fiction (04/08/2017)

For his project "homophobia is gay" he interviews a few people but decides that this won't be enough. What if he could introduce one of them to his world and show them that it's not bad to be gay? And what if this person was Frank Iero, the guy who has a list of girls he slept with right under his mattress at home, and an abhorrence against the red-headed boy? *Warnings*: bad language, homophobia, smut, abuse
