Match Your Weakness With A Name
Geoff's an inexperienced lifeguard with a deep, dark secret he doesn't dare tell his friends: he's gayer than Neil Patrick Harris riding Nyan Cat's rainbow dick through the sky while making out with hot shirtless alien men. Awsten's a model on hiatus who hasn't worn short sleeves since November. One chance encounter at the Houston Community Pool could mean absolutely nothing...or it could change their lives forever. Given that this is a gay fanfic written by a queer hormonal teenage boy, the second option is more likely. If you need anything tagged as triggering, tell me.Complete

On My Way to You
Warning: RWB spoilers ahead. Some say the best love stories often take time. Emery Chernychevsky has had a crush on Cameron Brooks since he can remember. Watching him date different girls all throughout high school was nothing if not pure torture, especially when he knew he didn't stand a chance against any of them. Safe to say, he spent his single years in a long-term ache he did not once divulge to anyone, but even that did not come close to the night Cameron confessed. The night Cameron confessed his undying love for someone else. Realizing that he was hopelessly and irretrievably in love with Cameron wasn't easy, and finding out that Cameron was hopelessly and irretrievably in love with his best friend was no picnic either. Things weren't certainly made better when their friends decided to spend the entire summer holed up together in Blake's summer house, putting Emery's initial plan of getting over Cameron before he starts college into a ten-week-long agonizing pause. Of course, be that as it may, fate has had a nick of testing Emery's patience... as it only gets a little worse━then, a little better━and right back to irremediable worst of worst from there. Spin-off to Rage With Benefits. Can be read as a stand-alone but a number of references will be made from the first book.
