Georgie is a five year old boy, who is turning six soon. He lives with his mother in a shabby apartment, over in downtown Brooklyn. His mother is an alcoholic dealing with her husband's desertion. Georgie keeps his ball Red in his hands every day. Signifying the time in his life when his parents actually had love for one another it gives him hope, hope to survive the cruel fate he's been dealt. Georgie's mother is quite neglectful as a parent and doesn't seem to care what he does. She never pays mind to Georgie, so he wanders around during the day by himself. One day, he comes upon a man in the stairs of their apartment who intrigued him. Mathias, a middle aged man who's injured and homeless is soon befriended by Georgie. A friendship evolves between the two, for Georgie is searching for paternal/maternal love, and Mathias is looking for someone/something to give him a reason to keep living.

Georgie questions humanity and why people are the way they are. What he doesn't realize is, how much he is changing people's viewpoints already. Mathias has been to hell and back. He has had a difficult life and has considered taking the easy way out a few times. Mathias learns later on to put his fate in God's hands, forgive himself, and move on from his past. Georgie teaches him that God let him stay for a reason.

Myocardium by mireyasatura

"When the night fades into dawn's palette..." Sex, drugs and the death-dealing pressure to make money night after night - It's a steep, downward spiral which 20-year-old Elijah Everdeen has found himself stuck in ever since his parents died. If it weren't for his two siblings, he would have given up years ago. For a long time, he wanted to, thought about it every day even. Sometimes - in the cruelest, darkest of nights - he still does. But if this black-and-white world has really become Elijah's grim reality, then why is this young, mysterious man capable of adding color and a heartbeat to this dreadfully achromatic still life Eli is trapped in? Who is he? And...who is he REALLY? "...the shadows hidden in darkness are unveiled by the light." ~~~~~ DISCLAIMER: The storyline of this book is entirely fictional.

Hold Me Close (BxB) {COMPLETED}. ✔️ by ThanatosPatase23

Octaveus was depressed. He knew it, but no one else did. He hid it, just as he hid his scars. He wasn't human either; he hid that too. He hid almost everything about himself from everyone, in order to minimize the ridicule. His mental state, his thoughts, his scars, even his questionable sexuality. But that only fed into his sadness. Drew was insecure. He didn't like standing up for himself in fear of saying something wrong. He didn't even change in the main locker room for PE, he went in the stalls. He was anxious. He wanted to know what was happening and when so that he can prepare for all possible outcomes of that event. And he was gay; his family knew and supported him, but no one else knew. He was too scared of how they would react to tell them. Jessie knew his brother would be teased. It was really a fact. Humanity wasn't too good at accepting of different beings. No matter how human Octaveus made himself look, he couldn't hide his unnaturally pale skin that no matter how hard he tried would not tan or his yellow cat eyes. He just had to try to fit in, same as the rest of their family. Seth was the school bad boy, and secret werewolf. His hobbies included pushing around the Freshman, flirting relentlessly with any and every attractive popular girl in sight, and trying not to think about Octaveus. He didn't want other people to find out about his thoughts on the emo new kid. So, naturally, he made Octaveus's school day a living hell. But he still couldn't figure out why this new kid intrigued him so much, besides that he was obviously not human. {BOOK 1 OF THE 'Scars I Hide' SERIES} *CAUTION: Mature for scenes of self-harm and suicide, PG-13 language, graphic violence, and some sexual topics* IF YOU READ THIS, DO NOT SKIP THE INTRO.

Good Luck, Babe! [Maxley] by IceQueenlila

Max' cheeks burned up and he felt more than a little dumb for it. But it was the truth. Bradley was pretty. Not just now but in general. Only it never really came through when he was acting like a massive bitch. But now, with Bradley looking at him without any malice in his eyes and still recovering from the previous events, Max could see. Bradley looked raw. His athlete suit dirty and torn at the sleeves, hair tussled and face bruised. His eyes tired and glassy and his cheeks pink. He looked real for once. Honest. Or: Max accidently overhears a conversation between Bradley and his father. He's never seen the boy look so small before. When things escalate, Max rushes in to help. Circumstances lead to the two becoming roommates. Max realizes that there is more to Bradley than what first meets the eye and he is determined to reveal it all. Bradley struggles to let himself open up, but bit by bit Max tears down all his defenses. He's helpless against it.
