Trying to save someone is difficult when that person is trying to save you. Scott and Michael are polar opposites. Scott is quirky, kind and a bit lonesome. Michael is arrogant, self-centred and indifferent. Despite this, they're good friends, until Scott's life is pushed into free fall because of Michael. And then, there's Zane, he's electricity incarnate. He's lively, funny and expressive. According to the laws of electromagnetism, the force of attraction between two magnets grows stronger when an electric current runs through it. But what happens to that force of attraction when it's plagued by depression, loneliness and fear?

What happens when Mateo comes home, and how will Cam ever face him again? ___ 'He looked mostly the same as last summer, older maybe, definitely more tanned. He'd grown his hair out a little longer, so it hung lower in his eyes now. I'd seen him post a picture with his hair like that a few months ago and decided to grow mine out too. I wonder when he looked at me, did he see me as I am now, or did he see me as I was then, that night?' ___ TW: sexual assault

  • Plan Of Seduction
    Plan Of Seduction
    "I hate you - so much Tripp." More confusion because, once more, wasn't this a good thing? "Why did you have to say that? What if," A little quieter, just above a whisper. "What if we mess up our friendship?" "But what if we don't?" "You don't know that," I bumped his nose with my finger. "And neither do you. So, why don't we give it a shot?" He bit down on his bottom lip, hesitation and worry filling his gaze. __ This is literally a story that follows the plot of two best friends realizing their feelings for each other, yes, I know, very cliche, but I enjoyed writing it. There will be mature LGBT+ content, so if you don't want to read those chapters or this story, skip it.
