Set at a run-down summer astronomy camp in the woods, two teens, Max and Jordan, both passionate about science, find themselves paired together for a stargazing project. Max is an introverted astrophysics enthusiast, while Jordan is a charming, outgoing aspiring astronaut who dreams of exploring the universe. At first, Max is intimidated by Jordan's charisma and confidence. He prefers solitude, often feeling like an outsider in social situations. Jordan, however, is drawn to Max's intelligence and depth, seeing past his shy demeanor. The camp's atmosphere is electric with the excitement of discovery, but beneath the surface, both boys are grappling with their identities. Max struggles with coming out as gay, while Jordan feels pressure to conform to traditional masculine ideals, afraid of how people might react. As they explore the stars, they also explore their feelings for each other, realizing they like each other a bit more than friends. Will they learn to align, or will they burn?

His Good Luck Charm

Saying that Max Oran is a disaster would be an understatement: he got himself kicked out of school, his dad has sent him to live with his emotionally distant mother and his friends don't want anything to do with him. When Max starts at his new school, he meets Cole Benson and his turbulent but loyal friends. As Max develops new bonds and begins to fall for Cole, he realizes that, despite everything, he might have stumbled into something beautiful. Eager to embrace the second chance that life has given him, Max begins counseling and, with the help of Cole and his newfound friends, tries to move forward. However, he quickly realizes that there are more bumps ahead than he was prepared for and is forced to decide if he's going to push past his problems or let his mistakes hold him back forever.

Beneath the Noise 1 - [MXM] ✔️
(Completed) Brothers of the Empire Series I've never been entirely sure where I belong. Most days, I exist somewhere between wanting to fit in and wanting to disappear altogether. The world moves too fast, too loud, too bright, too full of unspoken rules that everyone seems to understand but me. So I stand there, another face in the crowd, pretending the thrum of the music doesn't make my chest ache, pretending the lights don't burn when they hit just right. But that night wasn't about pretending. It wasn't loud or dramatic. It was quiet, a small break in the noise where something inside me shifted. Life never warns you when someone important is about to enter your world. They simply appear, slipping into your orbit so softly you almost miss it. That's how it began for me. One night. One unexpected moment. And the start of everything that followed. --------------------------- Author's Notes This story is told in short chapters, with many moments that build gradually over time. While it can be read as a standalone, it serves as the first book in the Brothers of the Empire series, offering deeper insight into the characters, their histories, and the overarching timeline.

"I always thought I was the ocean, you know? Always reaching for things I can't have. Always crashing into people who don't want me back. The moon pulls. The ocean follows. Even when it hurts." "You don't have to, Noah. Why can't you stay? Why can't the ocean stay with the shore?" *** Noah Reed has spent years trying to outrun the boy he used to be- the one who froze under his father's fists, the one who kissed a stranger under the stars and watched him disappear.
