Elliot Burton hasn't known peace since Bennett Harris popped around for 6th form. Known for his strong build, rebellious streak, and aggressive tendencies, Bennett has made the meek but smart-mouthed Elliot his next target until they graduate from their GCSEs. 

With their odd, shifty dynamics, it's hard to tell who the bully is sometimes. If they didn't look like a pair of rowdy young boys, most people would mistake them for an old bickering couple.

But Elliot would rather die before he admitted his feelings for Bennett. It's not like he felt the same...right? Only time could tell as fate, once again, throws them together at university, leaving the campus at the mercy of their common-room drama and passionate writing critiques. 

Can they read between the lines to see what truly lies behind the hard covers they've put up?

-KIND OF MATURE- "I wouldn't fuck you if you paid me." Well, at least my question is answered. He can get more punchable. We glare at each other, I am surprised neither of us have raised our fists yet. It wouldn't be the first time. "Who says you'll be the one fucking?" I snap back. _______________________________________ Zachary Alvarez has always hidden his broken parts behind his charm, sarcasm and arrogance. He is a complete asshole to most, especially one man in particular who he occasionally wants to lick all over or shoot in the head (He isn't picky). Nothing in Zach's life is constant. All he has ever cared for is himself since nobody else did. A lot of drinks, one-night stands, relationships that he never put effort into and people always leaving, that's all he has ever known. And Everett absolutely hates Zach's guts and hates how his smirk makes him feel triggered. Everett has always been this or that for people, always an image. Most times he doesn't even care, but sometimes it gets irritating. But somewhere both Everett and Zach starts to see each other. All that hate gets a bit too exhilarating. In so many ways... _________________________________________ If you guys are looking for an enemies to lovers with a lot of sexual tension... #1st in lovers #1st in homosexual #1st in bxb #1st in university #2nd in drama #4th in Lgbt #8th in mxm #19th in romance
