Sometimes he had a fling or slept with his roomie but that was as far as that ever went. While looking for a job he expected dick head bosses but what he didn't expect was to meet the man who'd change his life forever.

Altered
Have you ever met someone who alters the course of your life? For good or for bad, they've come in, given and taken, and then- BOOM! Your life was never the same. There's always a change, an altering of reality. When you meet those people, the reality that you've known your whole life is suddenly gone and a new one has taken its place. When those moments happen, there's no going back. You can try to return to the way things were but nothing, and I mean nothing, can take you back to exactly how it was. That's what happened to us. I think that's why we're still trying so desperately to get back to some sort of normalcy. Four years later and we're still on the ground, crawling, in search of the happiness that was lost that June. Summers will never be the same. Midnight walks through my neighborhood will never be the same. Field parties with bonfires and loud music will never be the same. I still don't know why you left and what lead you to the decision you made. What I do know is that we're here. We're alive and we're pushing forward to the future. A future that you're not a part of. But in some ways, I'm glad you're not a part of it. I just wish it wasn't like this. *** TRIGGER WARNING*** SA, abuse, suicide, substance abuse, and mental illness. This is a complete story that is much like life; fast, full of surprises, and not always how we want it to be. This has been a project of mine for over three years. It was self-published on Amazon, but after some issues in publication, I decided to just upload it on here. I hope you fall in love with these characters like I have. The friends in this story are trying to make names for themselves, figure out who they are, who they can trust, how to love, and how to separate themselves from a restrictive community. As in any coming of age story, they will experience growing pains... but will they survive them before its too late? PLEASE READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS.Complete

"I don't like your hands on them." He grumbles and I smirk. I already knew the answer. "I do it for you, Enzo." I remind him as I move my mouth closer to him. "Only me." He growls as he pulls my head forward, closing the space between us. ~~~ When a dangerous mafia leader meets this particular stripper, he learns she is anything but.

Saving Jayden (BoyxBoy)
Jayden, nineteen, is a boy the world forgot too early. He drifts through the city's cold nights. Worn out, unseen, carrying the weight of addiction, shame, and the quiet wish to disappear. He's been running from everything: his past, his pain, and the person he used to be. Eli, twenty-six, is everything Jayden isn't. Composed, successful, and restrained to the point of silence. A young businessman with a reputation for control, Eli lives his life by routine and reason. Yet beneath the surface, he's as lonely as the glass walls that surround him. He has money, order, and emptiness. One rainy night, their paths cross. Jayden, cold and unconscious next to a bus stop bench. Eli, driving home through the rain, finds him. A stranger he could easily ignore, but doesn't. What begins as an act of kindness becomes something much more intimate. Eli brings Jayden into his home, into warmth, into quiet safety and, without meaning to, into his heart. Over time, Jayden's fragility cracks Eli's calm surface, and Eli's patience begins to pull Jayden back from the edge. They orbit each other. Hesitant, scared, tender. Two people learning to breathe again in the presence of someone who doesn't demand, doesn't judge, simply stays.
