Tyler has had social anxiety and panic attacks since he was little. Adding homophobes to the mix, and high school is a hellish place. But when shy Troye Sivan moves from Australia into the small international school, Tyler finds his worries of approaching new people fade away. Little does he know, Troye's backstory may take a little more than assertiveness to heal. But with insight into their own problems, Troye and Tyler will find a way to help bandage each other's wounds. ~*~*~ **[TRIGGER WARNING]** This fic will include social anxiety, panic attacks, domestic violence and self harm and those triggers WILL BE WARNED AT THE START OF CHAPTERS. I apologise for the amount of triggers, but that's the premise of the story. I had planned on smut, but I realised it probably won't happen, but that's why there's an R rating. I can't get it off. Some of characters WILL use homophobic slurs, derogatory language and other inappropriate things will come out of their mouths. Note: This DOES NOT reflect any of my own personal opinions, they are merely fictional representations of characters who are real people. The people included in this will generally be real people. Teachers and extras might not be real, but main characters are actual people. Anything that they do in this fic isn't a representation of them in real life (excluding Sam Pepper who's a scumbag).All Rights Reserved
