You Remind Me of A Cactus
"'Cause you're such a prick,"
-
Amazing cover created by @Writing_with_sass !!!
-----
Meet our Cactus: Ollivander Torretto, the unusually quiet, rude, prick of a college student. 
His roommate, Callan Easton, is a stubborn, fiery tempered male who wants nothing to do with Ollivander.

In quite the cliche, these two college boys get into utterly ridiculous altercations as they attempt to get along. 
Sadly, Ollivander has other priorities: Overcoming a rough past whilst trying to change himself for the better. 
Callan, too, has other priorities, but they mainly consist of his perfect girlfriend.

Will Ollivander manage to realize the world can be a beautiful place, or will his own regrets be his downfall? Will Callan be able to stand Ollivander long enough to help open his eyes?

In a LGBTQ+ romantic comedy, follow these two boys on the rollercoaster of life.

Bad Cupid (BoyxBoy) by SnowMarisvega
146 parts Complete Mature
The ancient Greeks said Cupid's arrows could make you fall in love, but what if those arrows hit the wrong person? And what if that person was Eastwood High's most notorious bad boy? Dylan Dexwell was the opposite of a typical guy - his quick wit was laced with cutting sarcasm, his sense of humor an acquired taste. But everything changed when his father was transferred to San Diego, and Dylan had to start all over again, with a secret. On his first day at his new school, Dylan was immediately the center of attention. His white hair set him apart from the other students. But his looks weren't the only thing drawing eyes - it was also the sight of him stumbling into the school's most notorious bad boy, the captain of the football team and his troublesome mouth. He knew he was gay, but he wasn't ready to come out - especially not to his parents. As Dylan settled into his new school, he soon met the most colorful group of people imaginable. There was the sassy cheerleader with the razor-sharp wit, the cheerful sweet guy Dylan could tell had a secret, and the jerk who became his half. Dylan found himself arguing with the stunningly handsome biggest jerk of Eastwood high at every turn, and soon they were butting heads and getting each other into all sorts of trouble. But then, in a moment of confusion and chaos, their lips met. And everything changed. Was it love or hate that was igniting between them? And what would happen when these two polar opposites start to feel a spark? Things can't get worse in Eastwood, right? Wrong. This isn't your typical gay love story. It's worse. For some reason, Eastwood hates the boy with a secret- Dylan. And it sure is trying to get rid of him. Will the town succeed? #5 in Gayships - Nov-Dec 2024 #1 in LoveMe : March - May 2022.

I'm Finn Vasco but that's not quite important right now. I'm a pretty sarcastic guy if I'm gonna be honest. I'm closed off and I literally only have one friend. I might hate everybody in my school... but there's this guy there. He's... let's say, dreamy, someone who I thought would never even acknowledge my existence. That guy who was too damn good to be true, who was too good for me, who was too good for... everybody! You get what I'm trying to say. He's that cliché king of the campus and a popular and attractive heartthrob and with just one wink, he can send people on their knees... That sounded so wrong, anyway. So can you blame me for being over the moon when one day, he approached me only to what? ...To ask for my help courting my freaking best friend. I knew it was stupid for me to hope I'd even have any chance with him anyway. So I just agreed to help him. Even if I was hurting myself and potentially my best friend in the process, my best friend who has been there with me through the thick and thins, I still did it... I mean what could go wrong besides literally everything? So my plan was to just set my crush and my best friend up, and then everything would be alright... right? But of course, life doesn't like it when people have it easy. *** Highest Ranking #2 on #lgbtfiction #5 on #boyxboy #6 on #gay #8 on #teenfiction *** ~ WARNING: This story contains strong language and bullying.

They've lived together; they've lived apart.
