[BxB] For high school senior Callum Bray, a relationship was never in the cards. Between an alcoholic father, a job to work, and a brother to take care of, Callum's holding his life together with safety pins and duct tape. So he shrugs it off when he accidentally hires Jasper Clements, the mysterious new kid from across the country, as his little brother's piano tutor. It doesn't matter if Jasper is talented, or rich, or stupidly attractive. Callum can't afford to get distracted. 

But when their paths cross again and again, things start to complicate-and Callum begins to think that change might not be such a bad thing after all.

Eighteen. It's that time in your life that's nothing if not subjunctive: the mood you use when something might or might not have happened. It's a time that's full of change. Leaving school. Going to University. Leaving home. Saying goodbye to past people. Welcoming new people. Everything becomes different all at once. Parts are hard. Parts are easy. All of it: unavoidable. *** Approaching the end of his final year of education, Andy Williams feels lost. Life feels directionless and he craves something that he's not sure even exists. Going through the motions of life with no passion left to give feels numbing until he meets a friend that shows him there's light at the end of the tunnel.
Keys and Red Strings [BL] by treasuresjake
25 parts Ongoing Mature
Known for his handsomeness, a piano-playing boy(Leo) who was just getting in his daily practice at the school's theater for an upcoming performance. This was normally a peaceful time for him, where he could be content and undisturbed. UNTIL, the school's popular jock(Lucien) disrupted the peace, barging into the room, trying to hide from his teammates. This caused an immediate clash between the two boys arguing the moment the doors opened. After that, the piano player returned to his playing with annoyance, not expecting to see the jock again. However, he was proven wrong when the jock appeared before him again, in an unexpected way. The more they saw each other, the more strange it felt, as if fate was pushing them together even in the most unusual ways. Or something along those lines. -----
Love in Denial by anjalichettri12
29 parts Complete
Ohm has always been confident in his identity-a straight guy with a loving girlfriend and a carefree attitude. Flirting has always been just a game to him, something harmless and meaningless. So when he starts teasing Leng, his new classmate, he thinks nothing of it. After all, they're both guys, and it's just for fun... right? But as the playful banter turns into lingering stares and an undeniable tension, Ohm finds himself drawn to Leng in a way he can't explain. The more he tries to convince himself it's nothing, the harder it becomes to ignore the truth. He isn't just playing around anymore-he's falling. Trapped between the life he's always known and the feelings he never expected, Ohm struggles to accept the possibility that he might not be as straight as he thought. And in a world that refuses to understand, loving another man feels like the greatest risk of all. Will Ohm find the courage to face himself and the judgment of others, or will he let fear dictate his fate?

Finding Life Again by Kariario
40 parts Complete Mature
Raised by cold parents who never offered him a glimpse of affection, Kai dedicated his life to earning the love he never received at home. Successful in his studies and devoted to his passions, he found a romance that ultimately shattered him, coupled with the harsh realization that he had failed and that his parents would never acknowledge him. A year after his graduation, Kai felt lost and unsure of how to chart his path forward. Clinging to the one person who had never left his side, he resolved to confront the traumas that haunted him. He never anticipated that the person who would help him the most would be someone he had met right at the beginning of his journey. SMALL EXCLAIMER/ The story doesn't visually describe sexual scenes. There are just a few makeout scenes. The first few chapters are describing a person who is slightly depressed and some light anxiety behaviour situations. It is not a heavy book. The characters are not abusive. The relationships are healthy, and I hope my book is as positive and easy to read as I wanted it to be. However, for some people can be triggering as there are mentions of anxiety and social awkwardness.
