Risking It All by ShelbyRaeBooks

For Everly it had been 10 years. 10 years in love with her best friend. Their bond was unlike anything they'd ever experienced in their lives. A bond they found unbreakable. Would bad timing and a misunderstanding change all of it? Would they lose each other? Neither wanted that, but would avoiding the topic really fix things? One conversation would change it all for them. Would the fear of losing each other for good hang over them forever?

Sunburns And Second Thoughts by AlejandramAMG

All Characters in these stories have names of people I know ( this does not mean any of the couples are true ) Liam Fournier and Laurianne DuBois are ready to make the most of their first summer break after high school - and nothing screams freedom like a lifeguard job at the busiest outdoor pool in town. Best friends with a knack for competition and a growing list of inside jokes, the two find themselves spending nearly every day together under the sun. With old friends like Mackenzie, Emma , Sebastien , Amélie , Mia , Micheal , AJ, Gia, Felix, and Kevin drifting in and out of their summer adventures, the vibe is easy, the laughs are endless - and the feelings start to shift. A spontaneous lake trip with the whole crew brings Liam and Laurianne closer than ever, but just as something real begins to spark, they're forced to ask: what if the best part of us only works in the shallow end? Because sometimes, love doesn't need to last to matter. And sometimes, friendship is the real ride-or-die.

Circles | ✔️ by CxTannir

[COMPLETE] They say weddings are eventful, to say the least. Anything could happen. What I didn't expect however, was him. My mistake. It's been years since we last spoke- he drives me crazy, in ways no one else has. Being back home and reunited with old friends, was about to get messy. ~ "Morning sleeping beauty," He drawled, leaning against the counter mixing his protein shake vigorously. "Well then you must be the beast and not the prince." I retorted, rummaging through the pantry for some granola I could have with greek yoghurt. "Yeah," he shrugged. I put my bowl and ingredients on the table and frowned. Did... he... just agree with me? "In the gym, in the office... and definitely in bed," he winked. Oh. There it was. He's so full of himself. I rolled my eyes, proceeding to make myself breakfast. It's too early for this. ~ Follow along as two individuals encounter each other once again as adults, whilst their teenage histories shadow over them with every step.

Broken ✓ (BoyxBoy) by ButteryBreadsticks

"Wait, you're gay?" I asked in confusion, scratching the back of my head. "Well duh. How oblivious are you?" "Well, I guess I'm pretty dumb, but my sexiness makes up for it." "Sure Hunter, whatever helps you sleep at night..." *** [Completed] Hunter just moved to a small city in Florida after his third suicide attempt, being forced to live with his aunt. After his first day at his new school, he has the whole football team hating him with his smart remarks, except for one quarterback who takes an interest in him. With his new therapist, his annoying aunt, and the hell hole he calls school, will Hunter be able to make it through the rest of high school, or will he forever be broken? --- This story contains romance between two boys. If you're not okay with that then I suggest you leave. I'm gonna go ahead and add a trigger warning, for suicidal themes, cutting, etc... Fair warning, this story is really poorly written. It's filled with plot holes, grammar errors, and everything else under the sun that makes a bad story. It pains me to reread it but it's like my own writing history so I don't want to take it down. It was written when I was 12, if that says anything, so keep that in mind before you read it! *** Highest rankings: 07/10/20 | #5 in Humor 02/09/20 | #5 in BxB 06/22/19 | #4 in SuicideAwareness 05/21/20 | #3 in GayLove 04/12/20 | #3 in UnlimitedPride 10/06/19 | #1 in Sarcasm 08/09/19 | #1 in GayFiction 08/17/19 | #1 in GayAf 09/28/19 | #1 in FreeTheLgbt 11/28/19 | #1 in TeenFiction 02/12/20 | #1 in Gayness --- Completed on 5/30/19

Say You Hate Me by hanaverse

"Nobody can find out how wet I make your pussy, Is that what you're saying?" "I don't even know you for gods sake." He laughed, "Maybe not but you want me don't you?" ********** When Moon meets new boy Travis, she immediately dislikes him.
