As Max develops new bonds and begins to fall for Cole, he realizes that, despite everything, he might have stumbled into something beautiful. Eager to embrace the second chance that life has given him, Max begins counseling and, with the help of Cole and his newfound friends, tries to move forward.

The Darkness Consumes || BOYxBOY ✔️
Viviano "Viv" Vitale is the newly checked in patient of a dull psychiatric ward after a quiet breakdown that no one in his life saw coming. He hates his name, his smile, and the way everyone keeps telling him he's "too normal to be here." Viv's instinct is to ignore his new non-binary, awkward and timid roommate completely. What follows is a slow, uneasy connection built through nighttime conversations when the rest of the ward is asleep. Viv doesn't understand his own pain, let alone anyone else's, but in trying to figure this person out, he might start seeing himself a little clearer too. Please read all the trigger warnings and tags before you start reading the story! This story is also posted on Inkitt and will be updated at the same time.Complete
