For 17-year-old high school senior Evan Brooks, life could be better. He's a social outcast at school, stuck in a rural Alabama small town he never wanted to move to, and he's got a secret he's desperately trying to keep: he's gay. When he embarks on a weekend vacation to the Florida panhandle with his hypermasculine brother, homophobic stepdad, and aloof mother, none of them can anticipate how much a simple 3-day trip will change their lives forever... CONTENT WARNING/TRIGGERS: Please note that this story contains very strong language at times and some mature themes. Some characters face emotional abuse. There is also a small amount of physical abuse, but it is mostly implied apart from one scene which is not extremely graphic. Some characters are homophobic, and a slur is used a handful of times. **2025 Update: Hi! This was my very first attempt at crafting an entire story from scratch all the way back in 2020, and I'd like to think my writing has since improved. I will soon be revisiting this story and making some enhancements - most notably, splitting up current chapters into smaller ones so they are much more easily digestible. In addition, I'll be making some edits to grammar and formatting, as well as giving some of the dialog a refresh in an effort to be less...cringe. Lol. There are also a few plot points I want to smooth out. While all of this is happening, the story will still be available in full here on Wattpad, though you may notice some "construction" happening (i.e. one chapter is very long and then there's a super short chapter, one chapter is formatted differently than another, etc.) Thanks for your patience while I work to spruce up this story :) I hope you still enjoy it in the meantime!

Effortless

53 parts Complete Mature

His tone was low, "So you're jealous?" His lips looked so soft. "Of the guy who is good at everything without putting in an ounce of work? Yeah, maybe I am." "You wanna know what else is effortless?" Javier challenged. I bit my bottom lip. "What?" "My feelings for you." - To work so hard for something and then watch someone else do it better effortlessly is infuriating. That was definitely the case for Elias. Elias Richardson wanted to be the best at something, academics was what he chose. With a lot of hard work and dedication, he achieved his goal. So when Javier Cortez came along and started showing him up at everything he did, he became furious. Now everything that they do is a competition whether Javier knows it or not. But somewhere along the line that hate filled competition begins to turn into undeniable feelings that take a lot less effort. - {TW⚠️: This book contains heavy depictions of alcoholism, verbal abuse, mental disorders, mature themes and strong language. Please don't read if this will affect you} {Cover by @sugararmy07}
