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.

I don't think I'll ever find that easy, because it's not. The easy part for me is lying, it always has been. Telling them I'm fine always works. But the hardest thing... the hardest thing is realising that no one hears my pleads, my cries and my screams... leaving me to fix my broken mind." ~~ Cooper Bryan is a young boy living with his mother in California, he lost his brother and father when he was 7 and now, his mother is moving on, she's getting remarried. From bullying, to awful step brothers, to having monsters in his head, Cooper fears he won't make it through his teenage years... but he's surviving... and he's doing it damn well too.
