Ben is in his junior year of high school, and he is the main target for the bullies because of his looks. He's barley tall, skinny and is awkward to be around. This doesn't make it easier on this teen that realized he was gay when he met Andrew. Andrew was cool, hot, and most of all well-liked by everyone, but why would he ever talk to someone as socially awkward as Ben? Ben then decided he was going to do whatever it took to make his love and luck improve! But that doesn't mean everything was going to be picture perfect.

Once in a Lifetime {BxB English}
IMPORTANT: Once in a Lifetime has been removed from Wattpad and is preparing for publication on Amazon. The first two chapters remain available as a preview. Please read the "READ THIS FIRST" chapter for more information and future updates. They say some loves only happen once. For Ody and Mano, that once changes everything. Mano doesn't do vulnerability. Aggressive, tattooed, cold, and impossible to like, he plays the villain on purpose, because being hated is safer than being seen. And losing someone again isn't a risk he's willing to take. Ody is the opposite. Bright, extroverted, charming, and painfully sincere, he notices when you're hurting, even when you pretend you're not. He remembers your birthday, offers you the last slice, and apologizes even when it's not his fault. For someone like Mano, that kind of softness is dangerous. When their lives collide, nothing about them makes sense, except the way they keep gravitating toward each other. What starts as tension becomes something neither of them can name, and soon, something they can't stop. But between secrets, buried trauma, and a world that won't let them exist without consequences, wanting each other comes at a cost. One keeps pushing him away. The other keeps reaching past every warning sign. Together, they burn. But when everything catches fire, love may not be enough to save them.Complete
