boys color flags gay genderfluid hidden homophobe homophobia newlife prejudice pride rainbow scared shame unashamed wattpride

This is a new story written by Advisor for Pen Your Pride for Pride Month

Living in a family of homophobes is hard enough, but being gay in that homophobic family? Your life becomes a living hell. This is the story of how one boy who grew up with rainbows on dart boards meets a new friend. A friend who can help him realize that no matter who he is, he is loved and important.

The scenario is based off of a true story, most everything else is made up fiction. 

Also please keep in mind that this is from the perspective of someone who was raised as a die-hard homophobe. (Like I was) Apologies in advance if there's anything here that's too offensive. If you like find something over the top and you're about to blow your top over it please tell me. I really don't want to hurt anyone out there too bad. 

Cover done by me, and whoever put the photo on the Internet. 

And just so you know, the ship name is supposed to be very particular, and has a very special meaning. See if you can figure it out.All Rights Reserved

gay one shots | ✔️ by rebarat

#3 in funghoul #7 in partypoison #88 in trans (all for september 2019) Gay, lesbian, trans, ships, my otps, and just gay stuff in general. I'm a 99% gay boy, so most of the stories are going to be boy x boy, but a lot of them are also going to feature low-key or high-key trans characters, and some will contain lesbian shots and flash fictions. I'm trying to be all-inclusive too so there'll be a couple non-binary and gender-nonconforming fics too, which I'm still trying to figure out how to write. But if your someone struggling with sexuality, this is a great place to start seeing if you identify with some of my bullshit characters.

Don't Let Go ✔ (Editing) by _Little_Infinity__

Gosh, I'm so pathetic. I feel like I relate everything happening to me, back to Cody. It's probably because he and I were always together. But I really should stop. Cody left me. Why am I so hung up on him? I should move on, right? I should find another guy to love unconditionally... or maybe I shouldn't. Maybe I should just be a slut. 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. He no longer wants to cry over someone who obviously doesn't care about him. However, all of this quickly changes when he meets a patient at a hospital he volunteers, who goes by the name of Ashton - who happens to be straight and also dying. After their first encounter, they become perfect friends, and the obvious f-boy begins to develop feelings for the obvious straight boy. Can Ethan break down his 'straight' walls and have him as more than a friend all before it's too late? It's all up to fate, right? Highest Rank - #3 in #FreeThelgbtq

He's A Tear In My Heart >> Garrence| Aphmau FF| C O M P L E T E D! :3| by badfanfictionxoxo

The do's and dont's of a gay relationship: Do: Avoid all contact with family/friends when starting out a gay relationship if you don't want to die. Avoid all contact with the world. Do not tell your unsupportive family members that your gay, instead GO TO CANDA. AWAY FROM YOUR PEOPLE. Make sure you have sex when YOU KNOW YOUR ALONE. Don't: Make all contact possible with family/friends when starting out a gay relationship. Also, you die if you do this. Make all contact possible with the world. INSTEAD OF FLAP YOUR FUCKING WINGS BECAUSE YOUR FREE. Tell your unsupportive family members that your gay, don't move to Canda because you don't want to be away from your family members. Remember? Your making all contact possible with your family members. Have sex on a cruise ship (AKA: A PLACE WHERE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ARE.) (PS: I've done all the things in the "Don't:" list already...fml...) Hope you enjoy my new story! (All characters belong to Aphmau. OLD Cover by Lauroth4life) This story is mine. And mine alone.

Our Love by KhusheeTaneja

It doesn't matters who you love, if that person reciprocates your feeling. Sometimes being, or getting things to be legal, doesn't help with the problem. It's the acceptance we want, not sympathy.

I Liked Blue Better by imaginenater

[OLD] [NOT MEANT TO ROMANTICIZE DEPRESSION OR MENTAL ILLNESS. SIMPLY A TROPE.] Tom isn't your average teen. But then again, what makes a teen average? His family is broken, his mental health is slowly declining, and he's faced questioning his sexuality. Often left to sit in his bed on his phone most of the day, his reasons to live were slowly declining. Tom thought it was better this way. It was better to not disturb anyone, to wear the same clothes over and over, and to stay boring. All, of course, until Tom met him. Updates every Friday. Maybe more days if I'm not busy or I'm motivated to do so. ⚠️ TW ⚠️ -boyxboy (shouldn't be a warning smh) -suicidal thoughts -self harm (cutting, etc) -no smut, probably fluff though -throwing up I didn't take the photo in the cover. I only added the text. This story does have a happy ending, because I also realized how much of an impact reading angst stories without one has on me. I also just want it to end well, and you probably do as well. Good luck reading, and thank you in advance.

Rise Up And Take A Shot by QueenBottomless

Cover art dose not belong to me! It's whoever made it and I wanna say it looks AWESOME Alexander is really messed up. He has anxiety, depression, and is mute. By choice. He's also an orphan, and he's been bouncing around foster homes since he was about 11. In all of them, he's been abused, one way or another. He's been in about 7 different homes by now, and his current one doesn't seeeem so bad. But you never know. He's 14, and and has been jumped ahead a few years in school. He will face many struggles along the way, but he will rise up above them to take his shot. And one day, he will blow us all away. Note: There is swearing, talk of abuse and suicide, some abuse (not a lot! only a LITTLE), and some school-level fighting so basically maybe just a fist fight or two. And I think those are the only things that are going to be this XD so don't worry! Oh and some gayness. Not a lot, just kissing. Enjoy!!! (Lol there's not really any plot plot, it's just me messing around and making a fun little Hamilsquad in school story that I hope you guys like) Started: December 7, 2019

Side By Side by Sagittarius_books

Marrying a straight person isn't good at all. But falling in love with a straight person is it wrong? Having crush on him for several years is it a crime? Forcefully marrying someone who doesn't love back it's not healthy isn't it? But what if you're confused about yourself? Do you want to explore the sensation or do you want to shrug it off like nothing? Or do you want to take another chance after doing a blunder...? Confusing isn't it? 6 years after divorce, the boys met again. But the problem is.. One who was straight back then now wanted another chance and other one who gave up and moved on, does the other one really feel like moving on or feel like starting a new life again with that same person? But the main question is....... Will he give a chance? Let's see 2gether.... ⚠ sexual abuse, fights, blood, angst, mature scenes, rape, violence. If anyone feel triggered don't read the story. Feel free to go away ⚠ #Contains 18+ and cuss words #Picture credit to rightful owner of Pinterest #Started on: 10 th May 2023 #Completed on: 15 th September 2023 Completed ✅ Top: Bright Bottom: Win

Catastrophically Carla (Lesbian Story) by xpaaulettex

Ages 14+ (lesbian concepts and some profanity) This is not your everyday love story, okay? It's not a chick flick either. The events and themes within my pages have meaning, depth, truth-and most of all, reality. You are about to be taken on an adventure about a girl who's life is not like everybody else's. I look like a normal teen girl, I mean, I have hair and two eyes and two hands and feet like everybody else, but I couldn't feel more different. I have two moms, yes. Let's just get that out there before you start reading and close my diary like everyone in my life has shut me out of theirs. All I want is a normal life with normal friends who don't judge me because of my home situation. I don't even remember the last time I went on a sleepover or called somebody my age. I don't mean to be a downer, because it does get better. Life gets better. Struggles are only temporary, I know that now. And by my last words reach your eyes, I've come a long way, and have grown to see potential in myself. I'm sharing this with you because I want to make a difference. I know now that I'm not the only one in the world that feels alone. I've been there, done that, and there's more loneliness to come, but for now, I feel more prepared for it. I know how it feels to sit by yourself at lunch every day and how it feels to watch others go to prom with dates and feel like shit because you don't think you'd even have any friends to go with. Please ready my diary. I am much older now, and much more wiser, and I can't wait for you to realize the potential in yourself, too.
