'It might feel like time has stopped while you're in the hospital, but the outside world couldn't care less. People on the outside keep living - time goes on for them - and we are the ones who are forced to run after them so that they don't leave us behind.' 

Atlas Hart is your normal fifteen-year-old teenager, except for the fact that he is not. Having battled Leukaemia twice and missing his freshman year of high school, he would describe himself as everything but normal. Yet with the help of his best friend and a caring older brother, he is sure to find his place in the outside world once more - or are three years away from everything just too long?All Rights Reserved

Letting Him In by _darkaesthetic_

Many people think that the hardships faced in one's childhood can make you stronger. Elijah thinks that's complete crap. After a childhood that consisted of regular trips to the hospital, Elijah ended up with overprotective parents and an endless stream of pitying glances everywhere he went. Now, finally in his senior year, he wants to forget his past and have a good time; but life seems to have other plans for him. So when a certain star quarterback enters his life, will Elijah finally be ready to let someone new in, also while grappling with the fact that he might be sick once again? ___________________________________________ TW- Cancer, mentions of abuse/domestic violence, mentions of drugs and anxiety, some mature language. This book mainly involves cancer from the trigger warnings; however the others are mentioned in the book. Just want to make sure noone gets triggered by any topics in here.

ORIGINAL:The Boy With A Touch Of Cancer(BxB) by Jeanne_Wolf

"Leo pinned me against the wall with his hips; his hands gently gripping my wrists, keeping my arms above my head against the cool brick behind me. His beautiful, hazy blue eyes -that had turned straight quicksilver, again- were filled with such an intense, carnal desire I couldn't even look into them, so I looked over his shoulder. I saw a small group of kids from the group standing out by their cars who would easily be able to see what we were doing...or at least what Leo was doing to me. At that moment, my mind started wandering to all the things that I could be doing to him right now...but I stopped that train of thought, immediately, as it started heading to all the wrong places... All the dirty places... All of those places involving a very hard part of my body... I glanced back at Leo; his gaze was still as intense as it was before (unfortunately). He smirked at me and said confidently, "You can't ignore me forever, Ethan. You're eventually gonna fall for my charms..." Ethan Carter was focused on 2 things. 1. School (obviously) and 2. Getting over ex (it's proving to be, harder than he thought), but now he has to add dying to that list, and suddenly having feelings for a boy (which has happened once before, but Ethan tries to forget it). Leo Malone makes Ethan feel things he's never felt for another guy. Leo's sweet, patient, and understanding, the only problem is, he's a guy. Ethan tries to ignore the fact that his heart flutters every time he sees Leo, or that he can't ever stop thinking about him; but if having cancer has taught him one thing, it's that, "You have to live in the present, as you may not have a future."

the way it ends by did_I_just_say_that

Noah Albert Clark was born to die. At least, that's how he sees it. Diagnosed with leukaemia at fourteen, he has since then been preparing for his own demise for years. It's really the only thing that he is not afraid of. Only, something has gone terribly wrong for Noah. He's gone into remission. And as a result, is forced into spending time with a girl, as well as her canine accomplice, whom he has never met, and is said to be just as screwed up as he is. Noah has never had any friends, and has never really thought he needed any, seeing as his death was so inevitable. However, the tables are turned, and it seems that now life is the hauntingly inevitable. Without cancer, who is Noah Clark? All he has ever been is a ticking time bomb, so now that he's stable, he has no idea what to do with his life. Live? He doesn't know how. Perhaps he just has to learn. TRIGGER WARNING: extreme suicidal ideation, eating disorders, death, mentions of abuse, violence.

Escape || an LGBT+ story (DISCONTINUED) by XiaoNathan

!!!DISCONTINUED!!! Jay is a soon-to-be-18-year-old nontransitioned and closeted transgender boy, who can't wait until the day he can escape his strict christian environment to transition. But his life is thrown into an arcade when it gets intertwined with his long-time crush Joshua's friend group during the summer break. Joshua's friend Jake shows interest in him from the start, thinking Jay is a girl, and Jay is too scared to come out since that would mean Joshua would find out too. But life has a lot of twists for them all. Meanwhile, Jake, who has tried to escape his traumatic past in alcohol and one night stands, has decided that he wants to give Jay his all in and get rid of his bad habits for "her". But he soon realizes that he's not the only one after her and wants to make her his' once and for all - in a completely wrong way. ________________________________________ Triggering topics such as rape, sexism, dysphoria, homo- and transphobia, self-harm and suicide. I'm writing from my own experience from time to time, as a non-transitioned and closeted 16-year-old transgender boy from a strict church. It's kind of a rollercoaster. At least for me it is.

$Once in a Lifetime {BxB English} by Iris_Hayley$

They say you only fall in love once. For Ody and Mano, that once changed everything. In a world where love isn't always safe, and pain comes hand-in-hand with desire, two straight boys find each other in the middle of grief, trauma, and secrets that refuse to stay buried. Mano doesn't do vulnerability. Aggressive, tattooed, cold, and impossible to like, he plays the villain on purpose, because being hated is safer than being seen... and losing someone again would ruin him. Ody can't help but care. Bright, extroverted, charming and painfully sincere, he's the kind of boy who notices when you're hurting... even when you pretend you're not. He remembers your birthday, offers you the last slice, and apologizes even when it's not his fault. When their lives collide, nothing about them makes sense, except the way they keep gravitating toward each other. Sparks fly, but so do secrets, buried trauma, and a love neither of them is ready for. One of them hides behind silence. The other hides behind smiles. Together, they're wildfire. But not all fires survive the storm. The forbidden love between a broken boy and a lost one - a bond that refuses to break, even as the world tries to tear them apart. 🖤New chapter every Friday🖤 !
