Somewhere within the ocean of labels and stereotypes at Lincoln High is a very awkward, very invisible, and very gay seventeen year old who goes by Carter. A boy with one bulimic vegan friend and a long lasting crush on a guy who walks around with a leather jacket and electric blue eyes.
Somewhere within the ocean of horny and egotistical teenagers of Lincoln High is a very troublesome, very broken, and very confused eighteen year old who is known as River. A guy with no interest in socializing or friendships.
After watching his longtime crush get cornered by the school's two football stars, Carter interferes and fights along side the senior he has never spoken to. He gets the attention he has tried so hard to avoid not only from the judgmental, stereotypical, label-filled swarm of teenagers, but by the guy who makes him weak at the knees. River finally decides to get close to someone, and that someone just so happens to be the boy who jumped into his outnumbered match up.
Confusion tumbles over.
Teasing-remarks are made.
Secrets are reveled.
Trouble is caused.
And love appears for the first time in two very fucked up lives.

Even In Pieces [bxb]
-KIND OF MATURE- "I wouldn't fuck you if you paid me." Well, at least my question is answered. He can get more punchable. We glare at each other, I am surprised neither of us have raised our fists yet. It wouldn't be the first time. "Who says you'll be the one fucking?" I snap back. _______________________________________ Zachary Alvarez has always hidden his broken parts behind his charm, sarcasm and arrogance. He is a complete asshole to most, especially one man in particular who he occasionally wants to lick all over or shoot in the head (He isn't picky). Nothing in Zach's life is constant. All he has ever cared for is himself since nobody else did. A lot of drinks, one-night stands, relationships that he never put effort into and people always leaving, that's all he has ever known. And Everett absolutely hates Zach's guts and hates how his smirk makes him feel triggered. Everett has always been this or that for people, always an image. Most times he doesn't even care, but sometimes it gets irritating. But somewhere both Everett and Zach starts to see each other. All that hate gets a bit too exhilarating. In so many ways... _________________________________________ If you guys are looking for an enemies to lovers with a lot of sexual tension... #1st in lovers #1st in homosexual #1st in bxb #1st in university #2nd in drama #4th in Lgbt #8th in mxm #19th in romanceComplete
