STATIC (LGBT) by kewk123

Alex is not shy, she's simply following her rules to hide in the background of life in general. Or at least she's doing her best to be 'at the fardest end of the social spectrum' Strictly reserved to her own things that vary from music to... pretty much anything related to that, Alex lives the normal life of a highschool student who doesn't wish to engage in deep conversations with no one. Not even her family even though ocassionaly she has to. One day around the middle of the school year, she coicidentially (yeah right. I wrote it :D) is asked by a new beautiful girl the simple favor of helping her find the exit of the school building. Of course, you could expect her to try to avoid her, wouldn't you? === So this is the new story guys! So excited. Kewk :3 P.S. I don't own any of the songs that I use in this book, they're just for the sake of the storyline as I really enjoy music very much and I wish for it to be included in my books.

Lights like Stars [BoyxBoy] by katieshakespeare

Alex and Garrett were best friends. Then they became enemies. Then they became drum majors of their college marching band. Then they became enemies with benefits. It all started on a study abroad trip in Medellin, Colombia where Alex looked out into the city lights like stars, and the part of him he had been hiding emerged forward, climbing its way towards the lips of Garrett St. Claire. With a troublesome family, anger issues, and suicidal thoughts, Alex Cicero journeys through his senior year by winning friends, losing friends, falling in love, losing trust, losing his virginity, and trying to realize he deserves more than the hate he's received for far too long.
