The One and Only Alec | bxb by dvchene
11 parts Complete
[discontinued] Jake Yazzie spends the vast majority of his days obsessing over musical theater and the football captain Alexander Clyborne. That is, until one very strange day in the bathroom when Alec does something Jake can't quite explain. Something that isn't quite human. - "Jake, you like me, right?" "You're okay, I guess." "You know that isn't what I meant." "Our first interaction was you choking me out." He scowled. "You mean to tell me that you don't like it a little rough?" "Not when I get bruises double the size of my hands." "So, is that a no?" I didn't say anything. Of course I like him. No, not just "like". I've loved him since the seventh grade and he didn't even know I existed until two days ago. I think the worst part is that I couldn't tell if he actually liked me back or if he was just trying to mess with my emotions. "Do you like me, Alec?" I asked. "Yes." - TRIGGER WARNING: Mentions of self harm and suicidal thoughts. Read at your own risk. The story contains mild-ish cursing and suggestive language. However, there are no sexually explicit scenes. This is a boy x boy story. Any hate will be reported and deleted. - If you're friends with me and you see this, no you don't <3 This story is a mess of grammatical errors and changes in tenses. But hey, at least the dialogue is formatted properly. Started: June 4th, 2020 Estimated Completion: 2022 (Kind of a slow, messed up updating schedule) - Cover Artist: Me!

A Boy Named Jasper  {Wattpad Featured Novel} by MidnightRose55
36 parts Complete
For with God nothing shall be impossible. (Luke 1:37) ~~~~~ Jasper is a screwed up kid, yet no one cares enough to find out why. Bruises hide his arms and alcohol stains the walls of his house, but he pushes forward because it's the only thing left for him to do. His days are spent in and out of the school psychologist's office, while his nights are spent in fear of his father. His guitar and the secluded spot by the train tracks where he likes to play are the only saving graces in the hell that is his life. No one disrupted this normal routine until Callie came. Callie is far from screwed up; she doesn't have family issues and doesn't understand the first thing about Jasper's world. Her house is filled with answered prayers and smiles of people who love each other. Her arms are clear and her head is full of optimism that Jasper doesn't buy for a second. She never second guessed her sunny disposition on life until she stumbled upon a boy and his guitar down by the train tracks. Callie and Jasper weren't supposed to cross paths. She wasn't supposed to care and he wasn't supposed to let her get under his skin, but then again opposites weren't supposed to attract either. Callie saw the good in him where most people thought there was none ; she was captivated by Jasper because he made her question everything she knew about the world. She thought it would be easy to teach him that there was still good left in the world, that there was more beyond all the bad he'd become accustomed to. She thought fixing him would be easy, but nothing worthwhile is ever easy and sometimes it takes more than one girl's overly optimistic persistence to pull a person out of the hell they've been living in; sometimes it takes faith and realizing that some things can't be done without it... ~~~~~ -Highest Ranking: #8 in spiritual, 10/25/17 ; #1 in Christianity, 2019 -Wattpad Featured Novel: 10/19/17
