Irekan is in trouble. He likes a boy, and the problem isn't that the boy likes him back-the problem is he's not supposed to be gay. Moving to Nigeria was supposed to be his blank slate, a chance to successfully pray the gay away. But he failed, and things only go downhill from here.

Life was never going to be easy for Irekan-he's Nigerian, and that's already minus one on his good life bingo card. But with exams around the corner and Nosa smiling at him like he created the firmaments, he doesn't really have time for riots and parental abuse. Yet, he finds himself swept up in the whirlwind of police brutality protests, his parents are scheming, and everyone thinks he's some kind of martyr when he just wants to be in love in peace.

With academic pressure mounting, the threat of his family moving back abroad, and one heck of a secret romance, Irekan is forced to choose between those who see him for who he truly is and living a lie.All Rights Reserved

A Breath of Fresh Air by HeyImZackC

For 17-year-old high school senior Evan Brooks, life could be better. He's a social outcast at school, stuck in a rural small town he never wanted to move to, and he's got a secret he's desperately trying to keep: he's gay. When his family decides to embark on a weekend vacation to Florida for his birthday, none of them can anticipate how much a simple 3-day road trip will change their lives forever. CONTENT WARNING/TRIGGERS: Please note that this story contains very strong language at times and some mature themes. Some characters face emotional abuse. There is also a small amount of physical abuse, but it is mostly implied apart from one scene which is not extremely graphic. Some characters are homophobic, and a slur is used a handful of times. I tried my best to include as many triggers I could think of, but if you notice anything else in the story that may potentially be one please feel free to let me know and I will add it as a warning. Thank you :) As for genre, this story contains a little bit of everything. I'd say it's an LGBT Coming-of-Age Romantic Comedy Drama. I know that's a lot, lol. This is my first ever attempt at writing a fully-fledged fictional story, so please go easy on me :) I hope you enjoy! This story has a soundtrack!

Serendipity [BoyxBoy] by KingOfCornFlowers

Ten different lives. Two boys. One night that'll bring them all together. Sixteen year old Nosa is okay with being a loner. He doesn't have social anxiety-- he's Catholic and his mum promised you can't love Jesus and have a disorder. He's just weird and he's not good at talking to people but that doesn't mean there's something wrong with him. It does mean that he and Irekan could never be friends. Irekan's parents moved them back to Nigeria to straighten him up-- literally. Being Nigerian and queer has never been easy but now he has to at least try to 'ungay' himself to keep his family together. And that means no falling in love with Nosa's stupid face. Two boys fall in love over novels, anime and rock music that's definitely going to get one of them killed. ❀Winner: 2022 Pride Awards Teen Fiction Category❀ ❀2nd Place Winner: 2022 Pride Awards❀ ❀Featured on the AmbassadorsNG reading list❀ ❀Featured on Stories Undiscovered August 2022 reading list❀ ❀Featured on AmbassadorsAF reading list❀ __Highest Rankings__ #1 wattpadnigeria (3/08/2022) #1 Africanbook (8/05/2022) #1 Africanlgbt (8/05/2022) #5 Blackboys (12/05/2022) #2 Nigerianbook (15/07/2022) #13 Young Adult Fiction (23/06/2024) **This is a bl and it features multiple queer characters.

Football Boys by NatureProductions

| Novel | Version 1 ~ Published early 2018 ~ Burdened with undeniable romantic feelings for his best friend, Greyson feels as if his life has become a typical tragic story of a one sided attraction. For the most part, he's right as his love story is both emotionally draining and convoluted for a lack of better words. But neither of the friends anticipated that things would quickly escalate after a drunken kiss. ________________________ "My fist stung with a burning pain as I stood over Ace's unconscious body. A bit stunned yet remorseless as a multitude of gawking eyes bore into me, I was numb. And sluggishly turning to meet Greyson's watery eyes, it was as if my mind had turned to a word stealing mush."

Stigma/ vkook ff by LunaticPsycho119

This is a story about two eighteen-year-old boys, a bullied nerd who is studying at a school within the town he grew up in, who's discovering his sexuality after years of trying to suppress it, and an ex-troublemaker that transferred to that same school before leaving his past behind for his new friend. The story follows the development of their relationship and their first intimate experiences with each other while struggling with the homophobic mentality of the small town, conservative parents, a biased teacher, and trying to find the support of their friends. WARNING: contains bullying and abuse, sexual content, mentions of rape and self-harm, and gay jokes. (This book has been written a long time ago, so you should check out "unpunished/vkook" for a better story and writing that'll tackle similar themes!) (Votes are appreciated, I'll reply to every comment, last part isn't a chapter, just a thank you)

Jesse already had a hard enough life because of his alcoholic father and insensitive mother and this made things even more complicated. Not to mention the fact that he was living in a pretty homophobic environment and for his own safety he had to hide his true identity. Will Jesse be able to overcome this challenge? You'll have to read more to find out. *DISCLAIMER - Story contains themes that some readers may consider disturbing such as suicide, homophobia, violence and more. If you're easily triggered by the things mentioned above this content may not be right for you. Ps. This is a first draft of the book. You can find the polished version of this story here by a different title (Melancholic.) It is also uploaded on DREAME and Inkitt. I'd recommend checking that out because it has less errors, a few changes and some added scenes.

This story is about love, a whole lot of lies, and self acceptance.
