Third Time's a Charm ✓ by swallowedhearts

[BXB] Archie Holland and Brooks Dawson decide to take a third and final shot at love. ☆☆☆ Brooks Dawson is falling apart. His mom's behavior is spiraling out of control, his best friend keeps getting him into trouble, and he's still in love with his ex-boyfriend, Archie. But when a party goes awry, Brooks finds himself in an unexpected reunion with Archie while hiding from the cops. Maybe it's the late-night adrenaline (or their lack of better judgement) but they decide to give loving each other one more chance. And if the third time really is the charm, maybe this will finally be the time that they get it right. Maybe. [ February. 2022. - September 2022. ]
