Tangled Lines (BoyxBoy)

Will Jones has it all: money, a cheerleader girlfriend, and a life that seems effortlessly perfect to the open eye. Alexander, on the other hand, has nothing handed to him. Between working grueling shifts, dealing with a chaotic home life, and scraping together whatever freedom, he can to party and hook up with randoms, Alexander sees the world differently.

So when these two collide, it's a disaster waiting to happen. Constant bickering, unspoken grudges, and razor-sharp arguments mark every encounter everyone knew they hated each other. They push each other's buttons in ways no one could, each convinced the other is insufferable. Yet, amidst the tension and the clashes, tiny cracks start to form in the walls they've built around themselves.

Forced to navigate hockey practices, school, and the quiet corners of life they each cling to, Will and Alexander are challenged to see the world-and each other-through different eyes. A single school project could make or break them: if they fail, Alexander can't play in the playoffs, a blow that would devastate their team, which needs alex's talent on the field, Will needed their team to win, he had a lot on the line for this game. On top of that, Alexander's work at the nursing home, where he's grown close to a resident Will cares about deeply, which adds another layer of tension. Both are forced to confront not only their rivalry, making cooperation a necessity even if neither of them wants it.

But as secrets are revealed, moments of vulnerability slip through, and unlikely alliances form, they begin to realize that understanding someone you can't stand might just be the hardest-and most dangerous-thing of all.

Raw, sharp, and unflinchingly honest, this story explores rivalry, survival, and the delicate tension that can exist between two people who can't stand each other...until they have too.
