All this time we thought that it was unlivable atmosphere outside of the barriers. That no one else dared to be curious. Turns out there was a real good reason for that.

Colored In The Negative
A traditionally untraditional vampire tale. This short 13-piece journey follows Cherish as her vampire fairytale comes together then unravels before her very eyes. The obvious romance is blurred by her inability to pick a side: violent vampire or human life? Her indecisivity leaves everyone questioning till the next chapter. We know what happens in the end, at least we should. It's obvious, isn't it? This story has random and subtle 4th-wall-breaks, and plenty of music and TV references. Enjoy. Colored In The Negative was written for the entertainment of myself and my very unalike close circle of friends. It is set in the year of 2016, and takes place in San Antonio, TX. That said, only MOST of what makes this story is a work of fiction. Other than those who've given permission, every character is a figment of my imagination. Any personalities, private locations, or occurrences similar to actuality are purely coincidental.Complete![Serendipity [BoyxBoy]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/306286372-256-k702153.jpg)

Being Nigerian and queer has never been easy but now he has to at least try to 'ungay' himself to keep his family together. And that means no falling in love with Nosa's stupid face.
