Mature
Luke is the golden boy of Ridgeway High-captain of the football team, effortlessly popular, and dating one of the prettiest girls in school. He's got the kind of life others envy, held together by charm, talent, and the image of the perfect all-American teen. But when Adem, a confident and magnetic new student from England, transfers in mid-semester, Luke's world shifts in ways he never saw coming.

Adem is everything Luke isn't-open, unapologetically himself, and unfazed by the rigid social structure of high school popularity. At first, Luke convinces himself that the fascination he feels is just admiration... a friendly connection. But Adem's quiet persistence and easy charm begin to chip away at the walls Luke has built around his true self.

As their friendship deepens, so does Luke's inner conflict. He tries to hold tight to the life he's always known-his team, his friends, his girlfriend-but the magnetic pull toward Adem becomes impossible to ignore. With every stolen glance and moment charged with unspoken tension, Luke is forced to confront a part of himself he's buried for years.

Caught between loyalty to the people who expect him to be one thing and the personal truth he's terrified to face, Luke must make a choice: live a life that looks perfect on the outside or take the risk of being honest-even if it means everything might fall apart.

(COMPLETED) Dylan and EJ came from two very different worlds. Dylan was born and raised in Albay, Bicol, where he was surrounded by the familiar comforts of his school, friends, and everything he had ever known. However, the 2008 recession forced his parents to make a tough decision. They moved to Pine Hill, Manila, in search of a better future. Dylan hated the move. He felt lost and disconnected in the busy city and even more out of place at St. Michael's Catholic School, where the boys looked like models and the girls seemed straight out of high-end fashion magazines. Then he met Eric James "EJ" Medina. EJ was the school's golden boy, an overachiever who excelled at everything. He earned constant praise from teachers and admiration from classmates. But behind the accolades and perfect façade, EJ was lonely. He craved recognition and love from his parents, who always compared him to his flawless older brother. Dylan and EJ quickly became friends, but soon, Dylan found himself dealing with feelings that went beyond friendship. He tried to hide his growing affection for EJ, but the more he suppressed it, the stronger it became. EJ, too, struggled with his feelings, denying them until he couldn't any longer. When he finally confessed to Dylan, they started a secret relationship, knowing that the conservative school and EJ's parents would never accept them. Their love story faced its greatest challenge when someone decided to out them, threatening to shatter the little world they created for themselves.

I'm Finn Vasco but that's not quite important right now. I'm a pretty sarcastic guy if I'm gonna be honest. I'm closed off and I literally only have one friend. I might hate everybody in my school... but there's this guy there. He's... let's say, dreamy, someone who I thought would never even acknowledge my existence. That guy who was too damn good to be true, who was too good for me, who was too good for... everybody! You get what I'm trying to say. He's that cliché king of the campus and a popular and attractive heartthrob and with just one wink, he can send people on their knees... That sounded so wrong, anyway. So can you blame me for being over the moon when one day, he approached me only to what? ...To ask for my help courting my freaking best friend. I knew it was stupid for me to hope I'd even have any chance with him anyway. So I just agreed to help him. Even if I was hurting myself and potentially my best friend in the process, my best friend who has been there with me through the thick and thins, I still did it... I mean what could go wrong besides literally everything? So my plan was to just set my crush and my best friend up, and then everything would be alright... right? But of course, life doesn't like it when people have it easy. *** Highest Ranking #2 on #lgbtfiction #5 on #boyxboy #6 on #gay #8 on #teenfiction *** ~ WARNING: This story contains strong language and bullying.

"I walked over to where Aaron was sitting on the ground, kneeling so that I was face-to-face with him. He was wearing a blank expression on his face so I guess he didn't really care if I kissed him or not. I took in a deep breath before taking his face in both of my hands and swooping down to kiss him. At first, I was so nervous I didn't realize that we were already kissing but after a few moments, I realized how soft his lips felt on my own. Before I can register it I felt him moving against me. I would have gotten off of him but I realize that he wasn't moving to get away from me. No, He was moving his lips against mine." °°°°° Aiden Moore isn't extraordinary. He has average looks, he is OK with sports, and his only strong point is that he is smart (although that doesn't mean much to his fellow classmates). And, of course, his virgin ass has never had a girlfriend, let alone a crush. It seemed as if he would never find someone. That was until he met her, Scarlett Hale. She was the most beautiful girl you will ever meet. Kind, sweet, and one of the few people with a higher GPA then him, she was amazing and Aiden imagined that she would be all his. Once Aiden gets rid of her boyfriend, Aaron Tyler. The most annoying guy you will ever meet, Aiden gags just thinking about him. The man is smoking hot and makes Aiden's dreams of getting the girl to seem very impossible. So what would happen if Aiden gets involved with the wrong person? Will Aiden get the girl? Will he fall short? Or will he fall into the arms of a guy who is in love with the girl he loves? _______________________________________ WARNING: First book EVER!

When in Rome

28 parts Complete

Adeline Preston may be a grade A student, but that doesn't mean she knows everything. She doesn't claim to. But she does know that she loves her parents and their never-ending support. Her best friend, Mia, is crazy in the best possible way. And volunteering has kept her from drowning in the drama that is high school. Now it's the last few weeks of summer before her senior year, and Adeline also knows she has a ticket booked for a volunteer trip to Rome. What she doesn't know is that a few guys in her grade have decided to tag along and will have her not only questioning her sanity, but also why her heart seems to be skipping an extra beat for a boy whose eyes happen to be the brightest shade of green. ©2014 ℓαℓαℓαℓαwriting *Fair warning this is my FIRST story and needs editing*
