Nᴏᴛ Gᴀʏ {Tᴇᴇɴ/Jᴏʜɴʟᴏᴄᴋ}
My addition to the fandom is out - and so is John. - In the year 1997, John Watson finds himself at an interview for a job he doesn't need, and then at the same location of a new university flatmate that he initially doesn't want. Meanwhile, Sherlock Holmes is trying to debunk the Scotland Yard's incorrect description of what is actually a group of mass-murders revolving around a small memory-wiping pill. Mr. Holmes needs an assistant, and Mr. Watson needs a companion. Little do either of them know how much they specifically need one another. [I wrote this when I was early in my teenage years. Keeping it up because you like it, but keep in mind it may be riddled with potentially less-than-decent content. Happy reading!]Complete

The Road to Us
A class clown on a motorcycle. A shy librarian with a guarded heart. A slow burn MM romance about love, healing, and belonging. Hudson // Colton rides through life like he's allergic to brakes. Reckless, loud, the kind of beautiful that feels like trouble. I should know better. I've spent years choosing silence over risk, libraries over chaos, certainty over the unknown. But he looks at me like the world isn't something to survive-it's something to live through, messy and fast. Every time he grins, something in me unlearns caution. Maybe I'm finally ready to stop being the safe choice. Colton // Hudson's too careful for his own good, always hiding behind pages and plans while I'm out here chasing wind on two wheels. I never meant to fall for someone who thinks before he breathes, but damn if he doesn't make me want to slow down. He looks at me like I could be something steadier than a storm, and it scares the hell out of me. Because when the road turns rough and old wounds split open, it's not the crash that worries me, it's what happens if he's the one I can't outrun. 📖 Part of the Road to Us Collection The Road to Us Collection is a series of interconnected standalone queer romances about friendship, found family, and falling in love against the odds.
