Caleb was lost and had been for as long as he could remember. He tried to walk the path his parents wanted, but he couldn't see it through the darkness. 

With his brothers away for college everything became worse. The once warm home felt ice cold, the halls devoid of sound and his life devoid of colour. 

Then he bumped into Lucas. His long time neighbour who he was certain only saw him as his best friends little brother. Until he didn't. Until Lucas inserted himself further into Caleb's life, getting closer to him than anyone had ever been. Too close.

Or maybe that's just what Caleb needed, someone to see more than what was on the surface. Maybe the love he sought was right there in front if him, and so was the help he needed.

Avery has never known what it is like to be loved. His entire life until now has been a repeating cycle of abuse from his parents, but he was finally able to break free from their prison. Now that he is free to live the life of a normal teenager, he has a lot of adjusting to do: adjusting to going to a public school, adjusting to a being in a foster family, and adjusting to having new friends. All of it together can be overwhelming, but he is doing his best to live the life of any other teenager. Dominik, on the other hand, has known love. He knew it very well, but it was taken from him by the cruel hands of death. He now lives every day going through the motions, trying to act happy, but deep down, he is lost without his first love by his side. He is constantly haunted by the thoughts of having to live the rest of his life without seeing them ever again. He shuts out the possibility of making new friends, in fear of losing them too. But, what will happen when these two boys meet, considering the boy who's never known love, looks eerily similar to Dominik's first love? ***THIS IS A REWRITE OF A STORY I WROTE WHEN I WAS YOUNG, ITS VERY CHEESY BUT I HOPE YOU ENJOY***

Misery Boys by jxst_Hanna

"ʏᴏᴜ ᴛʜɪɴᴋ ɪᴛ'ꜱ ꜰᴜɴ ʙᴇɪɴɢ ᴛʜᴇ ᴘᴇʀꜱᴏɴ ʏᴏᴜ ɴᴇᴠᴇʀ ᴄʜᴏᴏꜱᴇ, ʙᴜᴛ ᴀʟᴡᴀʏꜱ ɴᴇᴇᴅ?" "ʏᴏᴜ'ʀᴇ ɴᴏᴛ ꜱᴜᴘᴘᴏꜱᴇᴅ ᴛᴏ ʙᴇ ɪɴ ʟᴏᴠᴇ ᴡɪᴛʜ ᴍᴇ." Lucas used to be someone else. Loud. Bright. Alive. Now he's a ghost in his own home, a problem his family tiptoes around. Cuts and bad habits keep him numb, and that's good enough-because hope is dangerous, and Lucas doesn't believe in it anymore. But then there's Damian-his brother's best friend, steady and unshakable-and Milo, his own constant since childhood, broken in all the same ways. They don't know it yet, but Lucas is running out of time. And if someone doesn't reach him soon... he might disappear for good Because the thing about ghosts is... sooner or later, they stop haunting. They fade. _______________ First story, sorry if I make any mistakes or something ^^

He Bleeds Flame ✔️ by cosmicastrovert

(bxb) After a year of surviving an all boys boarding school, William Brown thought he had finally navigated the ups and downs that the rich, private school had to offer. He'd even managed to make a few friends, as well as a rightful enemy. Lucien Harding. The two young boys were about as friendly as oil and water-that is, not very much. A dark haired boy deemed for destruction and a golden prince promised greatness weren't the likely pair. They knew as much, yet somehow, it had become inevitable. Their relationship would either go down in flames or a blaze of glory. Both boys bleed flame either way. Whichever path, they'll learn more than they bargained for.

Addicted [BoyxBoy] by afrosexual

Bobby is straight. I'm gay. This should be simple. Why, then, is it so complicated? ***** Caleb hated the fact that he was falling for his best friend. Aside from the stress of unrequited love and the issue of Bobby's "ex", the mere notion of his best friend was enough to rip his heart a new one. He was lucky that Bobby was far enough to avoid accidentally-or purposely-breaking Caleb's heart. Until he moves back to L.A. And, oh, the twists and turns the story provides.
