Gaya is a futuristic community where no one, except the government officials, have emotions. Unless, of course, you count the Selfish Machines who were immune to the anti-emotion treatments. Those who have emotions must be stoned publicly on their eighteenth birthday, for trying to destroy the community.
Tark and Drella had been living undercover for seventeen years, trying to find a way to escape the twisted community in which they live. They believe they've found hope in something called the Sky Under the Sea, a silly rumor that might actually be true, where people are allowed to have emotions. Their research is interrupted, however, when a suspicious Selfish Machine escapes her community and finds Tark and Drella. A love triangle emerges, and jealousy begins when Tark chooses Skyla to help him research escape instead of Drella. Do they escape Gaya? Does the Sky Under the Sea exist? And who exactly is Skyla?
NOTE: This is the stageplay version. I plan on writing a novel version one day.

Ethan went to boarding school every year, he didn't love it but it was better than staying home. Every year it was the same, maybe some new classes but he kept the same routine, same friends, and same self-loathing behavior. Things change when Julian starts extending St. Eve's Academy. Everything about him draws Ethan in, his dark hair and sickly pale skin, his quiet demeanor, and his dark eyes that always stared at him. Ethan goes out of his way to talk to him but Julian prefers to keep to himself. A tale as old as time, two kids stuck together at some school, two kids with bad families, and two kids who need each other but have to work past their own issues to finally be happy. --------- blurb - "I was going to ask if you wanted to go for a smoke, but your hair is all wet," Julian said taking in the droplets of water that were left on Ethan's neck, some trailed down his throat, teasing Julian. "So?" "So... You'll get sick." "Now you care if I get sick?" Ethan gave him an amused face, a smile tugging at his lips. "No," Julian sighed composing himself, "Do you want to smoke or not?" Julian said with an edge to his voice. "Sure," Ethan raised his eyebrows and followed Julian outside. -------------- started: 12/3/22 ended: 7/19/23 search "stuck (together)" for a playlist on spotify :) also heads up with story isn't very plot heavy more just watching their relationship together and it develop. also the is not at all an accurate display of addiction #smokingisnotcooldontdoit but seriously don't yell at me bc of how unrealistic their smoking habits are it's just for funnies :P also sexual content lmao read at your own discretion :D rankings - #2 in bxblove - #1 in gayfiction - #1 in badfamily -#2 in gay -#1 in darkacademia -#1 in gayness

With there complete polar opposite lives, Is it no wonder that they HATE each other? ****THE SEQUEL IS NOW AVAILABLE TO READ**** (2020 Update: God I love that this is #12 in the stupid category. But seriously, this book contains a lot of toxic stuff so if you're going to read it just be aware. Also I wrote this when I was like 12 soooo yikes but that also means I was writing about things that I had no real knowledge of. Please educate yourself and if I do ever decide to rewrite this cursed book I will be sure to acknowledge some more of the things in this story that are a bit too much. Anyways, stay safe and enjoy the story if it's not too cringe for you lol)
