Tied to luck by storiesbym4rs

Aiden Thompson a boy who knows how to keep his head down. Smart, soft-spoken, and one of the only openly gay kids at his high school, he's used to being the target of cruel jokes and cold stares. With a tight-knit circle of friends and dreams of leaving his small California town behind, he never expected to catch the eye of someone like Maximus Callaghan-the golden boy of the school, football captain, and heartthrob of nearly every girl on campus. But Max isn't who everyone thinks he is. Behind the touchdowns and perfect smile is a boy torn between what the world expects and what his heart wants. When his gaze settles on Aiden, everything starts to unravel. Then there's Zayne Russo-Aiden's ex-bully with a broken past and a rage that masks something deeper. After disappearing to New York, Zayne returns to chaos: his addict mother, a protective younger sister, and a heart that won't stop pulling him toward the boy he once made suffer.

Soulbound by SJMinyard

This was supposed to be a new start for them; Astra had made that clear. If she looked back on it all now it would tear her apart. A fresh start meant no more wounds. It meant new friends, and distance from endless hospital visits and a potential criminal record. She was ready to leave him behind her.

Books & Bad Jokes (bxb) by leyani143

"You make shitty jokes, sweetheart." "But you laughed, so obviously something was funny." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Aiden Garcia is a lot of things. Sarcastic, sweet, slightly nosy, slightly depressed, funny (he hopes), etcetera, etcetera. Aiden is also the most empathetic person in all of Heartman High, and possibly the country, too. And as the most empathetic person, it hurts his heart to see others suffer. And well, when a cute boy from the football team gets outed, how could he not check up on him? Except Mark Henderson is the most stubborn person he's ever met. And he also seems to have mood swings with how he feels about Aiden, and seriously, Aiden can't keep up. Or keep Mark out of his head. So there's 2 choices. 1) Forget Mark ever existed, and go find another cute, funny, stubborn, pretty boy. 2) Get that man if it's the last thing he does.

The Art of Breathing Underwater by DavidEAnderson100

𝐖𝐀𝐓𝐓𝐘 𝐖𝐈𝐍𝐍𝐄𝐑 𝐘𝐀 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟏 For bipolar fifteen-year-old Aaron, growing up in '90s Dublin, being gay is a choice. It is a choice between risking alienation from his conservative Catholic family and close-minded friends or drowning under the weight of his secrets. So discovering he is falling in love with his witty, bi-racial best friend, Robbie, an aspiring actor, plunges Aaron into a sea of confusion. Swimming against the tide of expectations, the young men set a course through sex, drugs and Bowie concerts, an outlet from a world that doesn't understand them. But weighted under the pressure of maintaining a double life, Aaron sinks into a deep depression. When a shocking incident puts his life in perspective, Aaron must decide whether staying silent and invisible is worth losing the only love he has ever known for.

Levels [boyxboy] by KBbumble

It all started in my Junior year of high school. That year was when everything changed, when everything that I've known about myself was no longer true. I was just a normal 17 year old boy. One boy, changed that all. He gave me love. He showed me hard time and times that we almost didn't make through. Some things brought us closer together, and some things pushed us apart. But I know, no matter what, I he will always have my heart. (This is book 1 of the levels series.)

Count The Stars by sunburststrat

Elijah Rosen, an introverted seventeen year old with a love for football, sneaks out almost every night to get away from the problems he faces during the day. He feels like his anxiety is taking over his life, and the only place he can go to escape it is the pitch black night right outside his window where he can be alone and let his thoughts run wild. But after he finds Adam Chang sitting at the bottom of an empty pool in the early hours of the morning with puffy red eyes and bruised hands, he begins to find comfort in something other than the dark. Only, Adam has a few problems of his own. And with pressure coming from his family, his friends, his school, and his own mind, Elijah isn't sure how he'll make it through the year. ------- "I think if you weren't here, I wouldn't be okay. I'd..." I trailed off, not wanting to say the words that we both knew were true. "Hey," he said softly, "I'm just glad I'm here, then." He started to let go of me, but I wrapped my arms around his neck and hugged him like I never had anybody else before. "I'm glad you are too." (featured by FreeTheLGBT: 1/13/2022)

Oh How Times Have Changed by llmusicsmyreligionll

Eighteen. It's that time in your life that's nothing if not subjunctive: the mood you use when something might or might not have happened. It's a time that's full of change. Leaving school. Going to University. Leaving home. Saying goodbye to past people. Welcoming new people. Everything becomes different all at once. Parts are hard. Parts are easy. All of it: unavoidable. *** Approaching the end of his final year of education, Andy Williams feels lost. Life feels directionless and he craves something that he's not sure even exists. Going through the motions of life with no passion left to give feels numbing until he meets a friend that shows him there's light at the end of the tunnel.
