Mason was once a rising star, a record-breaking swimmer with college scouts watching and medals around his neck. But after tragedy cracks his family apart, the boy who once felt at home in the water now flinches at its touch.

Haunted by memories he can't outrun and guilt he can't outswim, He spirals into silence, secrets, and self-destruction.

Then he meets Ethan - warm, patient, annoyingly perceptive. Ethan sees through Mason's rehearsed smiles and razor-edged charm. He challenges him. He stays. And for the first time in forever, Mason wonders if he might be worth saving.

But healing isn't linear. And grief has a way of pulling you under just when you think you've learned to float.

Loving Maya by KatherineKeyz

"You expect me to forget everything?" His voice comes out as a whisper. "To act like it doesn't hurt me to see you with him or that I'm still not crazy in love with you?" "Mason." I gulp nervously and fold my arms. "I can't do that. I can't. I love you, Maya." I look up at him and softly gasp. He still loves me? Tears fill my eyes but I blink them back. I shake off every doubting thought I had in my mind and run to him. *** Two years should be enough to get over someone, right? It's already difficult for Maya Banks and Mason Wilder to forget each other even after all that time apart. When fate plays a cruel joke on them and brings them into each other's lives for the second time, they're forced to explore old emotions. Will their traumatic past come in the way of their love or will love triangles and guilt do the trick? Sequel to A Kiss for Maya.

Home Is With You(bxb)✔️ by Re_Pun_Zel

Completed📌 ~Jacob Park and Arthur White ~ "I'm scared....maybe this isn't a good idea" I stammer stepping back, but he gets a hold of my waist to pull me forward. "I got you" He says tightening his hold on my waist, "there's nothing to worry about." I doubtfully look him in the eyes and take a deep breath when he strokes my hair, "promise?" "Yeah" he assures me and I take a deep breath when he murmurs the following words looking me deep in the eyes, "I promise." •••• The chemistry they have is remarkably out of this world. Jacob Park has always been a loner. Not that he wants to be one but his shy demeanor never allows him to make friends. Even though he's from a decent family, life never treated him fair. There was always this one thing missing and the one thing he's willing to do anything to get: HAPPINESS. Arthur White isn't the caring type and he's everything but respectful. He doesn't care about how anyone feels and he has a demeanor that demands respect. He has to change school every single time because of the different jobs his father does. It's always the same where he goes, plain and boring, but when he finally moves back to his hometown, everything's different. In his school he comes across this nice boy that wouldn't leave his mind and that made him question himself. Arthur was never one to assist or help anyone, let alone get close to them but confusion still ran wild in his mind when he got this sudden urge to protect Jacob Park in the hallways. #1 Mental health #1 bxb #1 wattpride

Hearts on Veils [BxB] (Book 2 in the Heart Series) by Wren_BurnsWrites44

Mason, a guilt-ridden high school athlete, must confront his internalized homophobia and toxic relationship with Iago, in order to find redemption and healing after a tragedy. (Can be read as a stand alone) -- Mason Cardova is drowning. A year ago, he was the golden boy of Mosley High-talented, popular, untouchable. Now, he's nothing. The whole town knows what he did. They know how he bullied Ontario Hackman, how he pushed him to the edge and watched him fall. They know his name was on Ontario's suicide note. They whisper it in the hallways. They carve it into bathroom stalls. They throw it at him like a knife every time they pass him in the halls. Killer. Monster. Waste of space. His friends abandoned him. His father beats him bloody. His mother doesn't care. And Mason? Mason isn't sure how much longer he can survive in the wreckage of his own making. Then there's Iago Rivera. Older, jaded, and thoroughly unimpressed with Mason's bullcrap, Iago is everything Mason isn't-strong, disciplined, untouchable. He doesn't drink, doesn't spiral, doesn't tolerate Mason's reckless self-destruction. He's made a life for himself, one that doesn't include babysitting a self-loathing high school burnout with a death wish. But Mason keeps coming back. He doesn't know why. Maybe it's the way Iago looks at him-not with pity, not with judgment, just sharp, cold indifference. Maybe it's the way Iago sees through him, sees the wounds Mason hides under bruises and bravado. Maybe it's because, for the first time in his life, someone refuses to let him get away with running from himself. Their relationship is toxic, messy, and doomed from the start. A slow-burn collision between a boy who doesn't know how to be saved and a man who stopped trying to save people a long time ago. But when Mason loses the last person tethering him to this world, he finds himself on Iago's doorstep-broken, bleeding, and out of places to run. And Iago makes the mistake of letting him in.

Deaf Wish by weirdself

"I don't care how many times I have to tell you that you are more than enough, that you deserve someone to make you happy and to love you and that I'm so grateful that I'm the one. Or at least I hope I am. But you need to stop thinking the way you do. Just stop it. Drop it. End it. Delete it. Never say it. Never think it. It will only hurt you in the end." he removes his hand from my mouth, his facial expression smoothing after he got things off his chest Skylar thinks of himself as worthless, useless and not likeable and being deaf didn't exactly help with his judgment. But will he change his mind about himself when he meets Nathan? Warning: This story contains BoyxBoy Action and triggering (self-harming) parts. Don't like don't read. You have been'/ will be warned. Love you<3

OPEN [boyxboy] ✓ by flawed-

BOOK ONE Coming out was supposed to set Julian free. Instead, it left him with a broken arm, a mother who won't stop preaching, and a silence that grows heavier every day. High school feels like a cage, and Julian is certain he doesn't belong anywhere-until Paul crashes into his world. With his inked skin, effortless charm, and a following that makes him untouchable, Paul should be the last person Julian lets close. But in Paul's arms, Julian feels something he's never known before: safe. As their connection deepens, so does the danger. Loving Paul means risking exposure, rejection, and heartbreak all over again. Worse, it means facing the cruelest voice of all-the one inside Julian's own head. Tender, raw, and unflinching, Open is a story about first love, first heartbreak, and finding the courage to believe you're worthy of both. ::: I could feel it when his body finally went slack, when he'd fallen asleep and soft snores emitted. And I thought I was getting better at this breaking down thing... I honestly did but when I was alone, I seemed to fall apart. Endless serenades of how worthless I'd been and how destructive I was; I was a disappointment to literally everyone and I hated it. My breathing became shallow as I cried for the second time that day, finally feeling content being immersed in guilt. A shudder wracked through my body, tears escaping and Paul pulled me closer as he woke silently. Mumbling soft nothings against my skin and kissing it to slow my breathing, he tried to lull me to sleep, "It's okay, you're okay." Refusing to speak -my voice failing me- his arm came up to wrap around my shoulder and I held him there, placing a small kiss to his tattooed skin in a broken sign of gratitude, I must've run out of tears. And I felt at ease.

Unwanted (BoyxBoy) ~Completed~ by xXPsychodicPandaXx

(WARNING!: DEPRESSING CONTENT, POORLY WRITTEN: READ AT YOUR OWN RISK) "I deserve just as much pain as she gives me." He said fully meaning it and crushing my heart all at once. "No you don't. You are just a broken person both inside and out and all you need is to be fixed. When you're fixed there is nothing but beauty deep in you." I told him truthfully as he looked into my eyes with his shining with tears. In that moment all I could do was feel my heart break for this beautiful boy. But something else was there and it was that I cared for him too. I was starting to fall for Andy. Before I could comprehend what was happening, I slowly leaned towards him and gave him a gentle kiss on his lips. It only lasted a couple of seconds, but it was enough to tell him that he wasn't alone. That he had me and together we could get through this. . *Attention:THIS STORY IS VERY VERY POORLY WRITTEN!!!!!! VERY VERY BAD!!!!!!!! It's gotten more popular than I thought it would be and for that I'm embarrassed because it's not my best work. You're free to be however critical you want to be on this<3

My breath came out jittery, staggered and just like that he was pressing his lips into mine with such pressure. I didn't move for a second too scared what the hell this was.
