School has an odd way of making you hate it yet love the people you meet.
I hate both.
I've been the new boy at my school for nearly five months. Since my family's life of poverty was flipped on its head I've seen my entire world open up; it's like I was living in a cave.
This time last year, I was 'too poor to have a Valentine'.
This time this year, I just don't have the guts.
Seriously, "Valentine's Day is the root of human anxiety." ~ Albert Einstein. (Don't look it up. I'm telling you what 'the government' doesn't want you to know.)
But school has an odd way of giving you the perfect friends, a perfect love life and perfectly supporting your dreams to be a pro football player like your older brother.
That, or it crushes you.
It just crushes you.
Your dreams? Crushed. Your friends? Meh. Your love life? Nonexistent (but as soon as it exists, CRUSHED).
But we don't know what will happen for sure, right?
I'm Roman Turner, but you can call me "the cool man".
Gosh, I know I'll cringe at this later.

FOCUS [BXB]
Like a bolt of lightning, this stupid boy appeared in my life. First day of summer break between first and second grade, he just appeared- standing on my porch like he was born there. Straight brown hair, wide dark eyes and a fresh sunburn across his cheeks. He was already talking before I even opened the door. I don't know how it happened but it's been ten years. And he's still here. Talking, whether or not I'm listening. Laughing, even if no one else is. He's still too quick- racing around the world like he's scared he's going to miss it. He's gotten taller...much taller. His hair is a little longer, a little wavier, but under the light it still looks the same golden brown it did when we were nine. And now, finally, he was a high school graduate. We both were. Like a bolt of lightning he appeared and like the sun he refused to disappear. _____________________________________________ I fell asleep with my chin pointed at him, the outline of his face being the last thing I saw. How was I supposed to do this? It had always been difficult, hiding this secret, keeping him close. But now, my focus was starting to slip. I couldn't see anything but his lips, his hands, his smile. I couldn't hear anything but my name in his mouth, his jagged breaths and that loud laugh. How am I supposed to be okay with this? How am I supposed to focus on anything other than him? #1- slowburn- 11.10.25🥇 #1- friends to lovers- 11.01.25🥇 #1- fluffandsmut- 11.02.25🥇 #1- college- 11.06.25🥇 #1- best friends- 11.12.25🥇 #1- teammates- 12.04.25 🥇 #1- college roommates- 12.30.25🥇 #1- mental health- 01.02.2026 🥇 #1- gay love- 01.02.2026 🥇 #2- roommates- 12.18.25🥈 #3- bxblove- 11.30.25🥉 #4- boyxboy- 11.01.25 #4- lgbt- 11.15.25 #14- boyxboyromance- 12.15.25 #22- basketball- 12.15.25Complete
What Are the Odds?
Noah destroys every life he touches. Taking his first life with his own first breath, his path of destruction only spirals from there. Consumed by guilt and reminded every day of all that he's done, he makes a terrible decision- and ends up with the only thing he's ever wanted in life. Now he's faced with a choice- lie and be happy, or tell the truth and risk losing the one person who's saved his life time and time again. The odds that all of this could happen to one person? Slim to none. But then again, they've always been stacked against him. **trigger warning for content: suicide, trauma, physical/emotional abuse** **Mature- strong language, some sexual content** My cover was created using a free stock photo I found online and the website Canva- I do not own the picture!

"हमको क्या लेना है सबसे तुमसे ही सब बातें अब से बन गए हो तुम मेरी दुआ" --------------------- Anshi × Nivir💗 "Between her silences and his laughter, two worlds touched- soft as a whisper, wild as the wind." She was the calm hidden in quiet pages, he the storm racing on open roads. Yet somehow, in the middle of all the noise, they kept finding each other. ―――――――― Arya × Reyan💗 "She is fire wrapped in mischief, he is ease painted in smiles- and together, they made chaos look like home." She threw sparks without apology, he caught them with unshaken calm. Somewhere between banter and glances, friendship began to taste a lot like love. ―――――――― Amaira × Ajay💗 "She is the challenge, he is the chaos- and somewhere in the sparks, tenderness bloomed." They fought like storm and flame, clashed like sun and shadow, yet every collision left them warmer than before. ―――――――― Whispers of laughter, sparks of mischief, and hearts that wander-together they stumble, tease, and turn ordinary moments into magic. They are threads of the same story, tangled yet inseparable. Trust me when I say you'll not only read their story, you'll live it, feel it. You'll laugh with them,cry with them, blush with them and feel what "LOVE" itself is . Let's dive into their journey of messy chaos that somehow felt like "HOME" ✨No misunderstandings or separation ✨No heartbreaks ✨No love triangles or toxic love ✨No cheating trope ( Picture credits goes to respective owners)
Living With Her
Hey there! My name is France Singleton. I'm 27, Single (If I may say...), Male (of course), Black hair, Gray eyes, fair skin, hot body, filthy rich (I don't think that's a factor), GPA of 3.8 (I'm proud of it!), likes to party, likes to drink, but most of all likes girls. But hell, girls like me more!! So, you think I'm having the time of my life? Yeah I am. I was preparing to get my Masters degree--along with some distraction along the side, can you blame me?--when my mother suddenly paid me a visit to tell that I'll be living with a girl...yes a girl! Her threat scared me, but what scared me the most was imagining what kind of girl am I going to live with for the time being. But you never know who I met at the door, the day 'she' came. Want to see how my perfect life was invaded by a woman along with my annoying subconscious? Then read on! Oh and if there're some girls looking for some good time, let me know! France signing off--for now ;) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The author here! :) This story is R-17. Not PG-17, R-17! It might contain some wild imaginations, dreams or actions from France's mind so beware (ugh..men!). So if you're this kind of person who is so innocent, never ever broken a plate or whatever in the kitchen, I suggest you avert your eyes. But of course if you're still going to read it then fine, go on. You have your agency but remember that you have a responsibility for that agency. So yeah, read or not read it's up to you!! And please, a reminder, PLAGIARISM is bad. Avoid it as much as possible. It hurts people who loves and spent precious time in their works. Our stories are our babies, so please let's discourage such act. But anyway, hope you'll like this little story of France's encounter with...well, her.Complete

Period!
"I... Am here to see you.", I told him as I placed my hands around his neck. I could feel my heart beat getting faster but I had to keep it strong if I had to survive this scenario. "What?", Brandon asked completely startled. I leaned in more closer to him. The only good thing in this entire scene was that he wasn't pushing me back due to my creepy behaviour. "Oh... Bran, I was missing you so much, I just... I needed to see you.", I said as I came up with lie. "Are you drunk?", Brandon asked as he leaned in closer trying to smell my mouth. Thank God Fel had given me her mint gum only moments before I went commando and came inside the locker room. "What?", I scoffed still standing extremely close to Brandon. "I just.... I was missing your gorgeous face.", I told another lie. But wait? His face is gorgeous so that isn't a lie. And was I not missing seeing him? I noticed Brandon who just had his eyes popped out of his socket with bewilderment at my words. I decided to peck him on the cheek before I storm out of the locker room. I leaned ahead to peck Brandon who moved his face in my direction and instead of his cheeks, our lips crashed. Brushing against each other, our lips touched. I could feel fireworks exploding inside my entire body. With my neurological system not responding anymore. ******* Depicting the hostility and vulnerability of a young woman to a society the story centers around a normal sophomore, Amy Cole, who had a normal life.

With new friends, shifting thoughts, confused feelings and fighting anxiety and standing for the right thing. Amy makes her way to the top. Only to get at the top of everyone's hate list.Complete
Everything Has Changed
"If you asked me three months ago what heartbreak was, I would tell you it's losing somebody close to you due to unspeakable circumstances. But right now, in this moment, I would say it's you. I would say it's the feeling I got in my chest when I realized I was out of time. When I stood in the rain and yelled for you to stay, but all I saw was your back. I would say heartbreak is lying in bed at two in the morning, watching my ceiling fan go around and around, wondering why you couldn't stop to listen. Two seconds. All I needed was two seconds to say the words. All I needed was to seconds for me to tell you I was in love with you. With everything about you. With the way you move, and the feeling of your arms around me. With the feeling of your chest vibrating as you laugh. Heartbreak is falling in love with everything about you, but having the words permanently stuck in my throat." _____ Gracelyn Levinsky grew up with Daniel Grey. She has always looked to him as a brother, but when she escapes from her abusive Mom and moves to the same town Danny moved to when he was ten, she finds out that he's in love with her. After countless attempts to get her to feel the same, Danny gives up. But when Grace realizes just how much she does love Danny, words can't help her because he shut her out of his life completely. How do you tell somebody who you can't talk to that you're in love with them? Simple. You force them to listen. WARNING: THIS STORY INCLUDES THE VERY ATTRACTIVE DANIEL GREY WHO REMINDS ME AND EVERYONE WITH OVARIES OF A SOFT GOLDEN RETRIEVER PUPPY THAT IS SLEEPING ON YOUR CHEST SO PLEASE BEWARE THAT YOUR OVARIES WILL EXPLODE WHILE READING THIS STORY! AN: please don't steal this story. I'm working/have worked really hard to create this and develop the characters and story line. This is solely made up out of my mind.
