Shayne felt like he had no reason to be sad. His life was fine in his opinion, two parents still together, only child, not a star player but still a good player. Maybe his parents were a little controlling and put some pressure on him, but that was for his benefit and success. Right?
Then there's Keith. He know's his life isn't quite average, but so many people have it worse. He could brush his problems under the rug and focus on school and getting by as best as he can until he can move out.
They didn't meet in detention. No "new boy" story. No dramatic "fell into his arms" shocking meeting. They weren't next door neighbors.
One didn't save the other, but in the end at least they helped each other.
Enemies? Strangers? You decide. If the "enemy" hardly knows you exist and it was more of a vague envy and dislike than hate, then yes. Enemies is what they were.

AUGUST HUXLEY was the type of person to never care about himself, only others. He lived a quiet life since no one bothered to know him, his only friends being his sister, her boyfriend, and their childhood best friend. August is going through his eleventh grade year and is slowly falling apart as the grades eat him alive and his mental health depletes, and it doesn't help when you have a jock who's favorite past time is beating you up. August would much rather not complain about what's going on since his sister already has so much on her plate, but so does he. In all honesty, August would rather be.... dead. NOLAN LEDGER is the son of world-renowned actors and was forced into acting at the ripe age of one. Being famous was all he ever knew, he didn't get to live the normal teenager life of going to in-person school or hanging out with friends, maybe even diving into the parents liquor cabinets when they were away, but then again how could you when you're watched like a hawk by not only your parents but the press? One wrong move and your whole career is destroyed. All Nolan ever wanted was to live a normal life like other seventeen year olds, but he knows that he could have it worse. But sometimes he wishes the worst would be his case because in his mind.... acting was slowly chipping away at his happiness if he ever had genuine happiness. When the two meet in an unexpected way the hope of a friend drew them in but the two would be thrown for a loop when what they thought was a love that friends shared turned into something a litte more.... romantic. With careers on the line and a depleting mental health, will the two boys get the love they've craved from that special someone for so long or will one of them be taking that longing to the grave? *heavily unedited, it WILL have grammatical errors <3*

beyond frost and flame
Theo Tomlinson had always believed that life would be simple if he followed the rules. Study hard, train hard, and keep his powers hidden. For the most part, he had succeeded. By day, he was your average, overachieving teenage boy. By night, he was Fortis, the icy superhero who protected the city from chaos and destruction. Aether was everything Theo despised. Arrogant, sarcastic, and infuriatingly good at everything. He had stolen the title of swimming team captain from Theo. He matched Theo grade for grade. They hated each other with a passion that their entire friend group had learned to ignore. His best friend Taylor often joked that they were like fire and ice, always on the verge of exploding. But life had a funny way of forcing people together. It started innocently enough - a school project, a forced partnership that neither Theo nor Aether could escape. Forced proximity was bad enough, but when their secret lives began to bleed into their everyday ones, things got complicated. Aether was hiding more than just his villainous alter ego, and Theo's icy façade was beginning to crack. Two lives, two identities, two enemies. Theo and Aether were caught in a web of secrets and lies, and the truth was bound to come out eventually. But when it did, would they still be enemies? Or would they finally realise that the line between hate and love was thinner than they ever imagined? © yuanjia 2025 Highest Rankings: #1 heroxvillain out of 655 stories #1 swimmer out of 419 stories #6 bl out of 150k stories #9 lgbtq out of 243k stories #9 forcedproximity out of 5.12k stories #10 gaylove out of 69.5k stories #28 gay out of 389k storiesComplete![Rumours [BxB] ✔️](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/176835582-256-k318879.jpg)
Rumours [BxB] ✔️
↞↞↞♛↠↠↠ Everyone makes at least one mistake in their life; if you don't, you're not human. I just happen to be one of those people who make a lot of mistakes. To start with, there were the Rumours. You know, those things that only powerful people can make up? Yeah. Those. They were the beginning of everything that ever went wrong in my life, but also the thing that led me to the end. Although, I didn't know that at the time, so a few bruises and kisses down the line, I found myself faced with a big problem. I had to choose between three people, all of whom had been lying about everything for months. That wasn't an easy task for someone like me, but the biggest issue? The one who made me cry the most tears was the one I couldn't help but love. ↞↞↞♛↠↠↠ "I never meant to hurt you, River." "Then why did you do it? Why did you do all of those things? I'm not some toy for you to use when you feel like it and then throw away when you're done." ↞↞↞♛↠↠↠ Completed ✔️ Started: 15/03/19 Finished: 18/08/19Complete

A Shoulder To Cry On
Starting the story from after Da-yeol left Tae-hyun Not really following the original story 3years later........ Three years ago, Lee Da-yeol walked out of Jo Tae-hyun's life and never looked back. After an emotionally intense and confusing relationship during their final year of high school, Da-yeol vanished without goodbye taking with him Tae-hyun's trust, warmth, and the only piece of comfort he ever had. In the years that followed, Da-yeol buried the past beneath ambition. Now, he's the founder and CEO of LUMIVEL, a luxury design empire, and lives a life of flawless control - clean lines, sharp suits, and no emotional attachments. Jo Tae-hyun, on the other hand, never moved on. Now a respected businessman at the head of BLACKROSE HOLDINGS, he is outwardly everything society admires: brilliant, successful, untouchable. But behind the image is a man suffocating in grief and guilt - blaming himself for pushing Da-yeol away. Silent panic attacks, sleepless nights, and hidden scars line his world. When the ache becomes unbearable, Tae-hyun turns to the only thing that numbs him: pain. Neither of them expected to see each other again. But fate doesn't ask for permission. They cross paths by chance in a luxury hotel lobby in Seoul strangers now, in name and form, but still tethered by the past. One glance is all it takes for everything to resurface: the anger, the longing, the heartbreak they never healed from. Will they walk away again or finally find the courage to stay? Disclaimers Self harm included Smut Switch role (both tops and both bottom) BXB Mental health, grief, and self-harm The illusion of success vs. inner loneliness First love and emotional scars Chance, timing, and the fear of love Healing through reconnections
