"What's more difficult, accepting your child for who they are or loosing them because you couldn't?"
➵➵➵➵➵➵➵❂➵➵➵➵➵➵➵
Rose and Farren have been best friends since they were toddlers. They have so many memories together. They've had so many sleepovers, Christmases and school days spent together that you couldn't count them if you tried. Well, maybe the Christmases, there's only one of them per year. Rose and Farren shared everything, from toys to classes to friends to birthdays even. They had so much in common, their passions, their favourite colours, their friends... but there's something else that they both have, a secret.

Rose wasn't one for keeping secrets, but she did have one, really big one. Rose was a closeted transgender, who's been in there so long she's built a life in Narnia. And as much as she wished he could tell someone, she couldn't, it was too risky. Rose's parents were heavily Christian, and not fond of the LGBT+ community. As far as her father is concerned, they should all be executed and sent to Hell on the spot. If only he knew...

Farren... was loud, and very open. People knew almost everything about him, even if most of it they didn't want to. There was one thing they didn't know though. And Farren wasn't sure if they ever should. Farren was extremely gay, like... Michael McIntyre level gay. Farren's parents weren't religious. They just hated LGBT+ people, thought they were weird, and... unnatural. Farren's father once said that gays were an abomination to humanity, and don't deserve to live on this Earth. Ha, If only he knew...

Nathaniel Jean's Senior Year
At first glance, nobody would be able to tell that Nathaniel Jean had a problem. Or second glance, or third, or fourth. After all, he had everything. He was a captain of his school's soccer team and one of the top players in the state. He had a big house and money to spend. He had family, he had friends, he had fun, he had faith. He never meant for it to happen. He never wanted to look at another man in the way he should have been looking at a woman. The idea had disgusted him for most of his life - living in a heavily Catholic town with heavily Catholic parents, homophobia was the only response he knew. That didn't change when he first realized that he didn't like girls. No, Nathaniel Jean was still homophobic. He hated the idea of a man sleeping with another man. He was raised on the notion that all gays went to hell, and he believed it. He despised them, and so he despised himself. Nathaniel Jean was more fortunate than most, because help did arrive for him. Help by the name of Lucas Morgan, they boy he'd always known but never known. The boy with big dreams and bigger talent. The boy that changed Nathaniel's life over the course of their thirty-six week long senior year.Complete
This Is Me
George loved dresses, they loved how they flowed so elegantly in the slightest of breezes, how beautiful dresses looked when George stood admiring them in front of a mirror for hours, looking at every stitch and every sequin. Clay on the other hand, despite having two dads was homophobic, he despised his dads and how they held one another in each other's arms. But that was all a mask only he didn't dare to admit it. After all the rough times he had gone through, he was not longer the one who was bullied. He was the bully. It was for sure that George wasn't going to be able to keep wearing dresses in secret forever, it was only a matter of time until people found out, but how would everyone respond? More importantly, how would Clay their best friend respond? TW's: -Homo(trans)phobia (F-slur) -Panic attack (just one) -Bullying -AbuseComplete
Knowing Me, Knowing You
The one who is constantly lying. The one who is constantly hiding. The one who has to lie. The one who has to hide. The one who knows to let go. And the one who is afraid to let go. High school tends to be cruel to those who go against the natural order of what is considered cool and what isn't. It's why Carter Knowles and Xander Quinn always felt the need to hide their love of ABBA music from their peers. After all, if the scary goth girl and the popular jock swimmer were both open about their love for the Swedish pop group, no one would take them seriously anymore. When one day brings these two unlikely friends together, they unknowingly begin to unravel the lives of the people closest to them. It soon becomes obvious that no one really knows each other the way they thought they did, but everyone is about to learn more about each other whether they're ready for them to know or not. *Trigger warning for violence **All chapter titles are named after ABBA songs, but the songs itself don't always represent what's in the chapter. Sometimes, the title is just fitting.Complete

Book I: to cross oceans for [BxB] (trans) - completed
"What if I'm not one?" I asked, my body wound tight with tension. "One what?" he asked, his voice soft and low. I hesitated. Was I ready? I wanted to tell him so badly. Wanted to scream it from the fucking rooftops. But there would be no going back if I allowed the words to spill out into the world. Telling myself I didn't need someone else's validation, that I knew myself well enough to know with absolute certainty that I was trans was all good and well in principle.

Danny's rejection would break me. In a fundamental way. "One what?" he repeated the question, scooting so close to me the tip of his nose brushed mine. Dust motes danced around us, suspended in mid air, teetering on the brink of this momentous feeling wrapping itself around us. I squeezed my eyes shut, pushing down the rush of anxiety trying to drown me. His nose bumped mine again and his breath ghosted over my lips. I opened my eyes and stared unblinkingly into his. 'A girl', I wanted to say, even though I knew the words would taste sour in my mouth, 'what if I'm not a girl?' -------------------------------------- Sean and Danny have been next door neighbours and best friends since they were six years old.

After being killed execution-style by his own family, a young man settles in an alternative afterlife and learns how to live. **************** On the day he graduated from high school, Hezekiah Chamblee was killed by his parents all because he wasn't meant to be a part of their American Dream and that he was a product of rape. Shortly after entering into the void between life and death, he is surprised to learn that he was not meant for heaven or hell and he wasn't meant to return to Earth. He is then sent to a simulated world known as "Nexus," where people like him were sent here and that they view an alternate timeline where they don't exist on Earth.

Meanwhile in the land of the living, word of his death would trigger a butterfly effect that would unleash scandals, change lives, and have one of Hezekiah's younger twin brothers expose the family secrets before the family would completely come to ruin. Follow this story alongside Hezekiah Chamblee as he undergoes dynamic paradigm shifts about himself while learning to finally use his voice as his family's forbidden desires would bring them to their downfall.

Even In Pieces [bxb]
-KIND OF MATURE- "I wouldn't fuck you if you paid me." Well, at least my question is answered. He can get more punchable. We glare at each other, I am surprised neither of us have raised our fists yet. It wouldn't be the first time. "Who says you'll be the one fucking?" I snap back. _______________________________________ Zachary Alvarez has always hidden his broken parts behind his charm, sarcasm and arrogance. He is a complete asshole to most, especially one man in particular who he occasionally wants to lick all over or shoot in the head (He isn't picky). Nothing in Zach's life is constant. All he has ever cared for is himself since nobody else did. A lot of drinks, one-night stands, relationships that he never put effort into and people always leaving, that's all he has ever known. And Everett absolutely hates Zach's guts and hates how his smirk makes him feel triggered. Everett has always been this or that for people, always an image. Most times he doesn't even care, but sometimes it gets irritating. But somewhere both Everett and Zach starts to see each other. All that hate gets a bit too exhilarating. In so many ways... _________________________________________ If you guys are looking for an enemies to lovers with a lot of sexual tension... #1st in lovers #1st in homosexual #1st in bxb #1st in university #2nd in drama #4th in Lgbt #8th in mxm #19th in romanceComplete
