He was supposed to follow the rules !!
-"graduate, get a job, settle down."
Instead, he got married at 21, failed out of college, and chased an unconventional dream: to become a gamer, a trader, and a self-made entrepreneur.
Everyone left. No one believed. But he kept going.
This is the powerful, true-to-heart journey of a young man who walked away from expectations and fought for a future only he could see. From dark rooms lit by trading charts to long nights streaming to no one, this story reveals the cost of becoming someone in a world that expects you to be no one.
This is a raw, and deeply human tale of loss, grit, growth-and self-discovery."**

While others are out making memories, he is building a future, convinced that success will one day make him worthy of her world. But Claire doesn't see him. She never has. She moves through life like a melody-vibrant, effortless, unaware of the quiet boy who admires her from the background. As graduation approaches, Ethan starts to question everything. Is he truly chasing his dreams, or is he just chasing her? And if she never notices him, will all his efforts have been for nothing? A gripping and emotional coming-of-age story about silent love, ambition, and the journey to self-worth.

Even In Pieces [bxb]
-KIND OF MATURE- "I wouldn't fuck you if you paid me." Well, at least my question is answered. He can get more punchable. We glare at each other, I am surprised neither of us have raised our fists yet. It wouldn't be the first time. "Who says you'll be the one fucking?" I snap back. _______________________________________ Zachary Alvarez has always hidden his broken parts behind his charm, sarcasm and arrogance. He is a complete asshole to most, especially one man in particular who he occasionally wants to lick all over or shoot in the head (He isn't picky). Nothing in Zach's life is constant. All he has ever cared for is himself since nobody else did. A lot of drinks, one-night stands, relationships that he never put effort into and people always leaving, that's all he has ever known. And Everett absolutely hates Zach's guts and hates how his smirk makes him feel triggered. Everett has always been this or that for people, always an image. Most times he doesn't even care, but sometimes it gets irritating. But somewhere both Everett and Zach starts to see each other. All that hate gets a bit too exhilarating. In so many ways... _________________________________________ If you guys are looking for an enemies to lovers with a lot of sexual tension... #1st in lovers #1st in homosexual #1st in bxb #1st in university #2nd in drama #4th in Lgbt #8th in mxm #19th in romanceComplete
