Connor had a single train of thought as he rushed out the door: whatthefuckwhatthefuckwhatthefuckwhatthefuckwhatthefuckwhatthefuckwhatthefuck. "Oh hey Connor." Gabe shouted from the couch, having heard the door being blown open. He was sprawled out on the couch with a box of frozen waffles at his side, mindlessly chowing down whilst some anime blared on the TV. "Hey, uh, Gabe?" "Yeah dude?" "What the hell happened last night?" "Well, you walked in at, oh, 3 AM, with that peppermint punk in your arms, reeking of absinthe and jack. You took 'em into your room and uh, i might've followed you, just to make sure nothin' bad happened, and uh..." "Oh god..." _______________________________________________________

(Book One) Jake Holmes hadn't put much thought into what home meant until Connor Morgan asked him to. He had settled with an idealistic fantasy. A life in the closet, complete with the girl he could bring home to momma, a house next to his best friend, and 2.5 kids. It didn't require thought, it didn't require confrontation, and it sure as hell didn't require him to reject everything he had ever learned about what life was and what made it worth living. But Connor did. Connor wasn't meant to happen. He ended up in Jake's life by chance, but Jake kept him there by choice. Connor was a pipedream stuffed away inside the ridges of Jake's mind that dared him to question everything for a life of authenticity. A life with Connor was something close enough to touch if he only knew how to reach for it. Jake's feelings for Connor become unmistakable, but the grip his past has on his ability to embrace the possibility of a life where he lets those feelings win threatens to leave him with a desperate choice he isn't equipped to make. As Jake struggles to find home within his identity, he is forced to combat the part of his heart that is stuck in the past with the part of his heart that yearns for a future. What is home if not where the heart is? Completed. Book 1 of 3. Sequel releases coming soon.
