Five O'Clock Shadow, a story by TheOtherOre.
Take the time and enjoy the story of Ore and Zargar, as it unfolds with each chapter!
Ore is an introverted gay man, shy, and unfortunately not out to his family. He likes spending time with himsef, and his pair of headphones, filling the voids of his life with music and podcasts. But sometimes, he finds himself looking at Zargar, and being in awe. Things change, when Ore listens to Zargar participate in class, showcasing an intellect that greatly arouses him.
Zargar is also an introverted man, but for vastly different reasons. He spents several hours a day with a razor, shaving away the evidence that he is not a simple, normal man. As a half beast, he has spent his life hiding a secret from the world, fearful of being seen as a freak. It all changes for him, when he is forced to be talkative in a class, which prompts his average looking, chubby classmate to talk to him.
Five O'Clock Shadow is a story about love, overcoming difficulties, personal growth, and acceptance. Family ties get shaken, new ties get formed, love gets tested, and a secret world is slowly being uncovered in this queer story.

"Theo. If I'm not mistaken? Isn't this yours?" He extended a hand, holding my penguin printed handkerchief. My eyes couldn't have gotten so wide. I quickly swiped it out of his grasp.
"Ah, t-thank you." I stuttered before walking away and out of the school, but before I did, I heard a deep chuckle behind me that I guessed was from Hunter.
***
Theodore Willshire, attractive, sassy, incredibly talented and extremely intelligent. His goal is to find love. But because of his sexual preference, it's not always easy. But he has his eye on one boy.
Hunter Fierro. I guess you could say he is... the cliche heartthrob of the school. He's known as the kindest, accepting and can literally make anyone fall in love with him if he wants.
How will the two of them meet? Easy! They just have to recall their past... Right?
As they blindly step foot into Sophomore Year. Theo will make unexpected friends, allies and enemies, maybe even meet the love of his life! What if one day, a mysterious being approaches him with an offer that seems normal at first but can change Theo's life?
