"For a year I'd been preparing to see only black for eternity."
***
Henry is your typical depressed, middle-aged man who works a boring 9-5 office job and wears the same wrinkly white shirt every day of the week.
Everything is normal, except for one thing.
It's his last day on earth.
With a fatal meteor expected to hit and destroy the planet, we follow Henry's point of view through his last day alive.
He's taken everything for granted. How will he handle knowing he's wasted his life away being apathetic to everything?

Bet We Could Make Some MORE (History Huh?)
Alex and Henry are newly engaged and planning their wedding as Alex's first Congressional election is coming up. While Henry is done with being in the spotlight, he's always knew that to love Alex, he'll have to continue to be. But as the wedding approaches, it eats at him as he realizes Alex and him want different lives. Alex, meanwhile is too wrapped up in politics to see how much Henry is suffering, and in his attempt to balance being everything to everyone, turns to vice. Will this be the thing that tears them apart? How can they both be happy if one of them has to sacrifice the life they have always desired? Follows book cannon (but not the bonus chapter exactly) and takes place 6 years after the end of the book. Chapters will alternate being told from Henry and Alex's POVs. TRIGGER WARNINGS: mental health issues, drug and alcohol use, disordered eating, profanity, and (light) sexual content Note: Please consider the politics in this story to be a very fictional representation, and they do NOT truly represent US politics.

THE FORGOTTEN HOPE
THE FORGOTTEN HOPE AN: this book is crap. Honestly. I wrote it like years ago. The trope is shit and the spelling is even worse. Don't read it or at least, don't expect much :) ************* Second book First is: the forgotten hope ************* So tell me, Where shall I go? To the left, Where nothing's right? Or to the right, Where nothing's left? ************* "So what's going on" my best friend asked "Nothing" I lied "That's a lie" she searched for my eyes "How would you know" I look up to her "I know because you haven't smiled since that night" ************* 🚨WARNING🚨 1. This is a very cliche story 2. I'm dutch and this story is english. So if the grammar is wrong or the words are misspelled. That's why 3. this story is specific and had triggers for anyone with suicidal thoughts or depression.Concluida
The Hots (mxm)
This story is complete ✅ Alec is a twenty-five year old gentle boy with the looks of an angel. He has not figured out what he needs in love yet and has never had a relationship. But something urges him to act, or rather someone, a person who is his total opposite. Sam is intimidating. He is tall enough to be a basketball player, muscular, covered in tattoos, and quick tempered. Most people prefer to keep a distance startled by his menacing glares. What will happen when these two distant poles collide? One thing is for sure, it will get unbearably hot... and funny. *** This book depicts a manxman love story. It includes several graphic intimate scenes and is rated mature. Those chapters will be marked as XXX. Please read only if you are comfortable with the topic and of appropriate age. *** Enjoy!

Shadows & Stars
Henry is a hot nerd.. like really hot. People cant keep their eyes off him. He gets groped and hit on around every corner. His best friends, Eloise and Zachary are extremely mean toward other people and cant interact socially thanks to their temper. They easily get annoyed and they both have resting bitch faces. Fortunately for Henry, they are two of the few people who don't use Henry for his looks. Henry has been through a lot in his life and has fallen victim to depression and self harm. He hides it well seeing as he doesn't want attention from other people. He doesn't like confronting people because he likes to hold a high status and doesn't want anyone to dislike him. Although, he unfortunately got a stalker thanks to his good looks... He doesn't realize this until one particular night. *** This is your average gay book. It does contain graphic parts. But who doesn't like reading a book about horny teenagers?Concluida
All Good Things {h.s.}
In the beginning, it all felt so effortless, like we were simply meant to be. His smile, that infectious grin that made the world feel lighter, could melt any wall I built around myself. The way he looked at me, like I was the only person in the room, the only one who mattered. No matter how much Niall and Allison teased us, there was never any doubt, he was my everything, and I was his. Every touch, every word, every moment with him felt like a promise of forever. And for a time, I believed it. I truly did. Now, I wish I could go back. Back to when it felt like the universe was on our side, and nothing could tear us apart. Would it feel the same, knowing what I know now? Knowing how fragile everything truly is? Would I hold him tighter, love him harder? Or would I spare him the pain that looms ahead? I can't stop what's coming. But even knowing that, even with the inevitable heartache, one thing is clear: I will love him. I will love him with everything I have, for as long as I have. And maybe that's enough. Maybe that's all I can give him in the end. - Hope you enjoy! This has been cross posted to Ao3!
I Liked Blue Better
[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.Concluida
Sequence Break
Charles inserts himself into a dating simulator where the main love interest commits suicide. His main objective is to stop the main character from dying, but he continuously fails at this. He starts doing more drastic things as he resets his game save file repeatedly, but the world cannot handle all the tampering he has done. It's only a matter of time before the code itself fails to continue. TW: Suicide, dark themes, heartbreak, and general sadness. Metanote: Suicide, suicidal thoughts, and the lack of consideration for suicide (usually by people joking about it) has been detrimental in my life, and it's taken away a lot of the spirit in me. This story is not meant to glorify suicide, but rather, to show the constant pain that it can leave people with. I am not saying that those who committed suicide are somehow "evil," but I am saying that there are real-world consequences for those who are left behind. Once you see Charles's story, you will understand what I mean.Concluida
Cursed Life (Short Story)
I've spent 300 years walking this Earth. Forever cursed to wait for a love that won't come. So, when she finally comes and looks at you with eyes full of hatred, you can't help but glare back. *** After cheating on his former fiancee, Janus was cursed to walk the earth, never settling, until he found one woman who could love him as much as he did them. So much so, that they would stay together eternally. He knew he had his looks going for him, but none of the millions of relationships he tried had worked out. Until one snowy easter night, in a brief conversation, he met her. After 300 years, he finally found a woman he could love so intensely, the curse would break. But he soon realised a terrible problem: that woman, with all her incredible wisdom, was not only blind but also hated him. Rated PG-13 for dark mental themes.Concluida
