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.All Rights Reserved

[Warning: As I look back at the earlier chapters of this story, I realize the misogynistic/transphobic/homophobic elements 16 y.o. me--I was 16 when I started this--- included in this story & I am deeply sorry.

Even In Pieces [bxb] by the_typewriter_ink

-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 romance

Crash and Burn (BoyxBoy) by SarahEvansxox

I pulled myself out as I shut my eyes in pain as little bits of shattered glass tore into my flesh. I managed myself out of the vehicle. I attempted to make my legs work again by standing slowly. I gathered all my strength before attempting to pick my brother up once again and walking as his feet dragged behind us. An explosion rang in my ears and sent me shooting against a tree on a wet patch of grass. Then it all goes black... ...::::...::::... Jeremy Mathews is a nerdy type of emo guy. He was involved in a tragic bus accident on his way from school. He's forgotten minor details of his life like his favorite outfit and color, but he's also forgotten some major things like his parents, his bully, his crush, his friends, his academics, and anything in between. He suffers from severe memory loss, no scrapbook can save him from this one. Martin Valve is Jeremy's bully. He's hated him since as long as anyone could remember but... no one knows why. Joyce Valentine is Jeremy's best friend and defender. She's always there for him. He can always find a safe place with her, including when he loses his memory. Xander Timmons is Jeremy's crush. He's the greatest guy you'll ever meet. Quarterback of the football team, nice, smart, and an all around good person. Will he be able to help Jeremy remember the details of his entire life, or maybe just the minor one that is, Xander. Xander has always been fond of the younger boy. He doesn't know why but he does know he cares for him, a lot. All Xander wants is for Jeremy to be the same guy he used to be. The nice, charismatic, loving, and sweet guy he's so used to. He'll do anything to get him back. (Sorry for the poorly written description) *complete* *In editing*
