Philip Evans is a short introvert who keeps to himself most of the time, bottles up his emotions, and always tries to please or help people, even if they're strangers. He's incredibly self conscious, insecure, and wishes his anxiety and depression would go take a hike.

  Issac Garcia is a tall extrovert who talks to everyone, never knows when to shut his mouth, and always looks on the bright side of things. He's extremely confident, gets restless when he's indoors for too long, and even though he has good intentions, they don't always go as planned.

  Despite being total opposites they fall in love. But after getting found out by the wrong person, they decide it's time to finally come out at school. 

  Only things don't go exactly like they hoped.

  Just hours after coming out, Philip gets shot and dies, leaving Issac and all his loved ones behind.

Loud Silence (BoyxBoy) by Wth_is_happeningg
47 parts Ongoing Mature
Miles is nervous and quiet. He graduated early to escape the bullying and chaos of high school, but adulthood hasn't offered the escape he had hoped for. Isolated and adrift, he struggles with panic attacks, loneliness, and memories that refuse to stay buried. His world shifts when he meets Atticus. Confident, kind, and impossible to ignore. Miles quickly begins to crave the connection he never thought he deserved. As their relationship deepens, so does Miles's hope that maybe someone could love him enough to help him heal, but the past has a way of catching up. Because love, as beautiful as it is, doesn't always drown out the noise, and silence can be louder than anyone realizes. Set against a backdrop of late-night parties, quiet heartbreaks, and moments of painful honesty, Loud Silence is a slow-burning, coming-of-age story about identity, survival, and the terrifying hope of letting someone in. This is the first long-form story I've ever written. I would love feedback as long as it's respectful. This story has been swirling around my head for years, and I'm excited to finally fight against my own anxiety and put it out into the world. ⚠️ Trigger & Content Warning ⚠️ Loud Silence contains boy x boy romance and deals with heavy mental health themes, including depression, anxiety, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, abuse (emotional, physical, and sexual), sexual identity struggles, and death. I do everything I can to portray these themes honestly and respectfully. Reader discretion is strongly advised.

"I think you have internalized homophobia." Philip looked at her, his mouth slightly curved. "Jokes on you." -- Philip is a seventeen year-old teenager who just wants to try to live. Severely affected by a fatal accident that he deems himself to be responsible for, living only gets harder for him. His world, very small--school, home. But it grows in size when Fletcher Handerson, the school's star basketball player is determined to get to know him, because he is trapped by Philip's silent stares which scream more day-by-day. Things change. After all, it is high-school. ~~ Warning ⚠️: Mentions of suicide, self harm and mental disorders.
