There was only one seat left on the bus. That seat just happened to be taken by his crush, Noah Armstrong.

Jacob Green isn't cool. He prefers a book to a party. He prefers history to sports. In fact, look at the definition of 'uncool' and there he would sit, reading. Noah, however, is the definition of cool. The girls want him and the boys want to be him. Jacob was different. He didn't want to be him or be with him. He wanted to be in love with him. 

As the final day of school comes and Jacob endures a day of work, he finds that there is only one seat left on the bus, that seat happens to be taken by Noah. Little does he know that his life is about to change. Jacob is about to embark on all shades of cool.All Rights Reserved

Only to Feel This Fully [Completed] by ewwwdavid

Charlie Holloway has great friends, good grades, a steady part-time job he actually likes, and athletic ability that makes him a star in two sports, but recently it's all felt rather hollow. However, when childhood friend Theo Broussard comes back into his life, Charlie is shaken out of a years-long daze that has left him coasting through his teenage years. Theo just happening to be the star player for his school's biggest rival and his first crush only complicates matters further. When things get difficult, Charlie finds himself forced to choose between his current life following the path of least resistance or a harder but possibly more fulfilling one. "Only to feel this fully, this entire, the way snow touched bare skin & is suddenly, no longer snow" -Ocean Vuong, "Devotion" from Night Sky with Exit Wounds [Re-edited 4/18/20]

Super Crush (BxB) by P-one-ron

⚠️Weekly updates on Sundays :) ⚠️ Loving someone who doesn't love you back super sucks. What's even suckier? If that someone is a superhero...and your best friend. Noah has known his oldest friend, Abe, for years. He is also the only person who knows that Abe is secretly a member of the world-famous superhero team, The Fleet. Noah may be powerless but has never minded watching from the sidelines as Abe saves the world. Not to mention, Noah has his own hands full with surviving high school. Maybe it is his constant brash decisions like flirting with the school's mysterious new kid and humiliating the class bully. Trouble is always looking for Noah, so is it really surprising when he is approached by a dangerous team of anti-heroes who want his help? Nah. But what is Noah to think when the vigilantes tell him that The Fleet has a devious plan to enslave mankind? Now, Noah is stuck between his best friend and discovering the dark secrets of the most powerful beings on earth.

Elijah Rosen, an introverted seventeen year old with a love for football, sneaks out almost every night to get away from the problems he faces during the day. He feels like his anxiety is taking over his life, and the only place he can go to escape it is the pitch black night right outside his window where he can be alone and let his thoughts run wild. But after he finds Adam Chang sitting at the bottom of an empty pool in the early hours of the morning with puffy red eyes and bruised hands, he begins to find comfort in something other than the dark. Only, Adam has a few problems of his own. And with pressure coming from his family, his friends, his school, and his own mind, Elijah isn't sure how he'll make it through the year. ------- "I think if you weren't here, I wouldn't be okay. I'd..." I trailed off, not wanting to say the words that we both knew were true. "Hey," he said softly, "I'm just glad I'm here, then." He started to let go of me, but I wrapped my arms around his neck and hugged him like I never had anybody else before. "I'm glad you are too." (featured by FreeTheLGBT: 1/13/2022)

What I didn't look past was that charming aura that was masking his mysterious deeds and a huge crush he held against me, the moment he laid his eyes. To him, I was the only thing that mattered in life. To me, he was the one I was running from, all my life.
