Boys Like Us Part 1: Just Lean On My Shoulder 
BOYS LIKE US PART 1 
"What do you think your gender identity is?"
For Yuan, the answer is clear-he's bisexual. But between girls and boys, mas na-a-attract talaga siya sa guys. The thing is, hindi pa siya out. Takot siyang ipakita kung sino talaga siya especially sa parents niya, kaya he clings to one goal: to be a valedictorian to his batch. Para sa kaniya, that's the only way to earn his parents' pride. Na karapat-dapat pa rin siyang ipagmalaki, even if he's not the straight, perfect son they expected.
But just when he thought he had everything under control, dumating si Kio España-a transferee who's smarter, more competitive, better at everything, and seemingly ready to steal the top spot Yuan worked so hard for. Suddenly, all eyes are on Kio. Now, Yuan has to work twice as hard to hold on to the only thing that matters to him. 
When things get too overwhelming, Yuan finds comfort in watching a mysterious anonymous live streamer online; someone who posts mature content in an adult gay site and has somehow become Yuan's secret escape and motivation.
Everything was fine until one night, na-discover niya ang totoo . . .
'Yong live streamer na hinahangaan niya at yung academic rival na kinaiinisan niya?
Iisa lang pala.
Now he's caught in a web of secrets.
Paano niya ibabagsak si Kio kung p'wedeng madamay pati mga tinatago niyang sikreto?
And just when he thought things couldn't get any worse, when Kio suddenly offers him something unexpected: No labels. No feelings. No one has to know.
A no-strings-attached, fvck buddy setup.
Will Yuan say no? Or will he say yes just to feel something real even if it's temporary?
And what if, somewhere along the way, he finds himself falling?
What if all he really wants... is to just lean on his shoulder?
