It's just the end of the world
Jace Monroe is just trying to survive. Between his grueling double shifts at a downtown diner and a late-night cleaning job at a crumbling theater, he barely has time to breathe-let alone dream. Life in the city is unforgiving, and being young, broke, and gay in a world that rarely makes space for softness has left him guarded and exhausted. Then he meets Lucien. Tall, magnetic, and dressed like sin itself in a leather jacket and a crooked smile, Lucien crashes into Jace's life-literally-on a rain-slick street corner. Their connection is instant, electric. Jace feels seen in a way he hasn't in years. But Lucien is no ordinary man. He's a demon returned to Earth, tasked with igniting the apocalypse. And Jace? He's the spark that could either damn him or save him. As the world begins to unravel-fires in the sky, shadows that whisper, cities crumbling-Jace must confront the truth about Lucien, about himself, and about the strange, terrifying love blooming between them. Because sometimes the end of the world isn't the end at all. It's the beginning of something far more dangerous. And far more beautiful. *Note, this is in short chapters and not perfect. But I enjoyed the story.Complete
Step Brothers
Jace Summers is someone who is always true to himself no matter what anyone else thinks of him, and he's proud of who he is. He has pastel pink hair, stunning deep brown eyes, and a sweet and silky voice that makes all of the girls swoon. Too bad he's gay though. He has been out since seventh grade and is thankful he has never gotten hate for it, not that it would have bothered him anyway. Alec Walker is someone who everyone knows and likes, though he doesn't consider himself to be one of the popular kids. He has brown hair, hazel eyes with the perfect mix of brown and green, and his side profile could make angels swoon. Neither of those two boys seem very different from each other, both are kind, well-liked, and very handsome. Even if they aren't friends, you wouldn't expect them to dislike each other. Well, sadly that is incorrect. Ever since they can remember, they have each hated each other with a burning passion. Jace thinks Alec is a jackass know-it-all, and Alec thinks Jace is annoying and throws his personality in everyone's faces. Those seem like very small or petty things that they could easily overcome by having a conversation, but both are too stubborn for that. It is a mutual hate that neither will give up. But when one day they get news that seems like the end of the world... it turns out to be the best thing that has happened to both of them. Not at first, but with time. *Has been edited for grammar and general cringe! (And is miraculously one chapter longer than it was originally!)Complete

There are lots of things I would've done different and if there's any views that offend etc, I was young and naive and had no idea what I was talking about. The fact it's got so many reads is crazy to me as it was just something I enjoyed. Some of the rude comments on it I understand but as I said I was very young and it does make me cringe to read it back now but please read and enjoy!*Complete

Before I Walked Away
"You're mad because I didn't treat you like someone I owed something to. And I'm sorry, but I don't. You don't get to be hurt by choices I made with someone else." "You don't think it hurts watching you keep going back to someone who only wants you when you're broken?" he shot back. "You think it's fun being the person you never choose, but always need?" That one cut deep. My voice dropped to a whisper. "You're not supposed to be in love with me." He looked like he'd been slapped. _______________Complete
