For an eighteen year old who's life has been a mess filled with being the sole target in his homophobic school, having a cocaine addict as a mother and being raised by his aunt, sometimes he even comes home late after being beaten up in a parking lot. Of course he comes across as hostile and a social outcast. But one day a tall, soft eyed boy, with an equally sad past, asks to eat lunch with him and his world changes. He has a friend, he has support, he has a reason to believe in himself, and above all... he has someone who tells him he's worth it. Boy love, fluff, small hints of passion and many guaranteed nosebleeds!

Sex, drugs and the death-dealing pressure to make money night after night - It's a steep, downward spiral which 19-year-old Elijah Everdeen has found himself stuck in ever since his parents died.

But if this black-and-white world has really become Elijah's grim reality, then why is this young, mysterious man capable of adding color and a heartbeat to this dreadfully achromatic still life Eli is trapped in?

A Breath of Fresh Air by HeyImZackC

For 17-year-old high school senior Evan Brooks, life could be better. He's a social outcast at school, stuck in a rural small town he never wanted to move to, and he's got a secret he's desperately trying to keep: he's gay. When his family decides to embark on a weekend vacation to Florida for his birthday, none of them can anticipate how much a simple 3-day road trip will change their lives forever. CONTENT WARNING/TRIGGERS: Please note that this story contains very strong language at times and some mature themes. Some characters face emotional abuse. There is also a small amount of physical abuse, but it is mostly implied apart from one scene which is not extremely graphic. Some characters are homophobic, and a slur is used a handful of times. I tried my best to include as many triggers I could think of, but if you notice anything else in the story that may potentially be one please feel free to let me know and I will add it as a warning. Thank you :) As for genre, this story contains a little bit of everything. I'd say it's an LGBT Coming-of-Age Romantic Comedy Drama. I know that's a lot, lol. This is my first ever attempt at writing a fully-fledged fictional story, so please go easy on me :) I hope you enjoy! This story has a soundtrack!
