"The one thing I've learned from all of this is to love who you are. Even if the ones closest to you don't. The world's not all black and white. At this point, I'm sure you know that there is a line in the middle. That's where a lot of us are."
Tyler Masuka is bisexual. That's all he's really certain about. Everything else about him is really just an unknown blur. Still being only open to a handful of people, he finds it troubling to embrace his sexuality to the general public. Trying to feel more comfortable being himself, he steps out of his comfort zone more and more, all while trying to figure out how to come out to his parents.

This is probably one of my most personal stories, mainly because I am bi. This story is a heavily dramatic version of my life, meaning that times where things get intense are, as I've mentioned, just dramatic versions.

ORIGINAL:The Boy With A Touch Of Cancer(BxB)
"Leo pinned me against the wall with his hips; his hands gently gripping my wrists, keeping my arms above my head against the cool brick behind me. His beautiful, hazy blue eyes -that had turned straight quicksilver, again- were filled with such an intense, carnal desire I couldn't even look into them, so I looked over his shoulder. I saw a small group of kids from the group standing out by their cars who would easily be able to see what we were doing...or at least what Leo was doing to me. At that moment, my mind started wandering to all the things that I could be doing to him right now...but I stopped that train of thought, immediately, as it started heading to all the wrong places... All the dirty places... All of those places involving a very hard part of my body... I glanced back at Leo; his gaze was still as intense as it was before (unfortunately). He smirked at me and said confidently, "You can't ignore me forever, Ethan. You're eventually gonna fall for my charms..." Ethan Carter was focused on 2 things. 1. School (obviously) and 2. Getting over ex (it's proving to be, harder than he thought), but now he has to add dying to that list, and suddenly having feelings for a boy (which has happened once before, but Ethan tries to forget it). Leo Malone makes Ethan feel things he's never felt for another guy. Leo's sweet, patient, and understanding, the only problem is, he's a guy. Ethan tries to ignore the fact that his heart flutters every time he sees Leo, or that he can't ever stop thinking about him; but if having cancer has taught him one thing, it's that, "You have to live in the present, as you may not have a future."Complete
