Cesare Pavese wrote: "Love is truly the great manifesto; the urge to be, to die valiantly, with acclamation- in short, to remain a memory."

Alan:
I feel everything around me and my heart is in my throat. I could end right there. In a Valiant acclamation of crushed metal and explosive fire. I slam the gas harder and now I can't stop because I am the fastest thing on earth. I am the only thing that matters as I hurtle towards the Great Manifesto.

Austin:
Gielle put the words out there on purpose, like a lawyer trying to lead the jury." Objection miss Santana." "So sorry, please disregard." But its too late because the jury has already heard the words and latched onto them-- if he likes Austin, then Austin must like him in return.
-----------
Alan:
I want to live. And I don't mean just staying alive, I want to do stupid shit. I want to stay up until four a fucking m bowling or break in to the school, or, sneak up the water tower and smoke.
I want to live Austin, and I want you to live with me. I want us to step off of that ledge. And this stupid project got me close enough to ask.
So. Austin Robert, Shall we wander?
-----
Alan:
By lunch, its all over the school that Austin Carlile saved Alan Ashby from jumping off the bell tower.
--------
Alan:
Trust me," Alan drawled," the worst thing you could do is look down."

𝐂𝐋𝐀𝐈𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝟏𝟎
Hughie Biggs. The love of my bloody life. The fella I swore I'd grow old with, get a ring on my finger from, have the big church wedding, the lot. I used to lie awake at night and picture his hand in mine, picture his laugh bouncing off the walls of our kitchen. Back then, I didn't have the faintest clue about the way the world could chew you up and spit you out. I remember us when we were younger, before everything went sour. When Caoimhe was still alive, when her laugh could still fill a room. When I still had friends-real ones, the kind you'd sit on the green with till it got dark, passing a bag of crisps around, talking rubbish and thinking it meant the world. Back then, we were untouchable, or so we thought. But nothing lasts, does it? Not love, not family, not even friendship. Everything rots eventually, like fruit left out too long. Secrets crawl their way to the surface no matter how deep you bury them, and when they do, they choke you. That's what happened to me. That's what happened to Hughie. The truth came crawling, and it ruined everything. So I've made up my mind. I can't stay here, not in this cursed town, not walking the same streets where his hand used to brush mine, where Caoimhe used to skip beside me, where I laughed like I actually believed in tomorrow. It's all poisoned now. Every corner, every memory, every face that looks at me like they know more than they should. I'm leaving. For good this time. I'll pack a bag, take nothing but what I can carry, and I'll vanish before anyone can stop me. No goodbyes, no explanations. Just gone. Because the truth is, there's nothing left here for me anymore-only ghosts, and I've had enough of them to last me a lifetime.
The rain's comfort
Beep beep beep... "Where am I? Am I really dead? is my life really over! What happened to me?" I began sobbing uncontrollably, why did this have to happen to me? Beep beep beep "Jade..." a faint cracked voice spoke out. "I'm so sorry... I couldn't protect you." Austin... that's Austin speaking to me. Save me Austin [ I wrote this FOREVER ago, I just thought I should say it's really..... challenging. There is a lot of self esteem issues and issues regarding mental health. I was in a very dark place when I was writing this- I just thought I should warn potential readers. I've also changed my writing tremendously! I do not write like this anymore. I think it's safe to say I rushed through the storyline and didn't develop my characters as wisely as I wish I did. And to that I apologize. The only reason I have not deleted this story is because this is just another demonstration of my past and a ledge from which I've jumped from to a higher level of thinking. We can't erase our past, but we can see the relics of our time and build from the foundations we've made. ] Kindest regards, -Jay ØrtegaLengkap
Forever is Crashing Down on Me (Austin Carlile)
"Forever?" I asked him, watching as his features all shined through with happiness. I tilted my head to the side as he let out a small laugh. "Forever," he agreed, evoking a smile from me. When Austin said it, I believed it, I believed it with every single fiber of my being. I didn't believe it with anyone from the past, not even Stephan, my ex fiance. I don't know what it was about Austin that made it believable, and I hopped that nothing would be able to take him away from me. I knew it was a lot to ask, and I would be fine if he decided to leave me. Austin was good for me, he really was. There wasn't a doubt in my mind that he was good for me. He made me happy, I made him happy (as far as I could tell). He made me want to be a better person every day. I knew that he was more than what I wanted, and I was glad he was mine, that he has been mine for over a year. It would be hard if I had to leave his house one day knowing it would be the last time, but I would be able to deal with it. ~~~ {Note that I suck at writing descriptions so I kinda just put an actual part of the prologue as the description, sorry not sorry. Also warning for smut. There will be smut and that's a promise. It'll be terrible smut, but still smut of a sort. I do not own Of Mice & Men or any of the songs mentioned in this story. This story is purely fictional and just used for the enjoyment of writing and reading.}Lengkap
It just... happened? (boyxboy)
Before I knew it my shirt was torn away from my torso and tossed on the floor, Charlie's doing the same. Our kiss intensified and I felt him groan against my lips. I swear to god, this boy is making out with me like his life depends on it! And that's when reality punched me in the gut... the words 'this boy' kept running through my head over and over again until it got through the thick fog of vodlka and whatever else was in those stupid drinks. I, Ace Loughty, was kissing a guy. A fucking guy. A fucking straight guy named Charlie Simmons who of course had to be one of the most popular dickheads in Meadow Ridge High. I am so unbelievably fucked. ----- 17 year old Ace Loughty was never one longing to be in the spotlight. In fact, he craved the exact opposite: being left alone. When Ace was 13, the tragic death of his younger sister Eleanor caused him to rapidly gain popularity and pitiful looks. He hated the attention. All of a sudden everyone wanted to be friends with the dead girls brother, they'd promise Ace he would never be alone that they would always be there for him, which he of course knew was untrue, they're all just hungry for attention. Sometime later the school moved onto other drama and gossip, things started to die down and people finally left Ace alone. He moved on with his life, convincing himself he was over Eleanor's death and as quick as the whole thing started, he returned to being lonely, weird, quiet nobody Ace. Just how he liked it. That is until 4 years later when he found himself sprawled out on a bed. With Charlie Simmons hovering over him. Charlie Simmons who was kissing Ace like he would die if he ever dared to stop. Which was all too true. Without kissing Ace, Charlie was as good as dead. *WARNING*: This story will contain themes of severe depression, suicide, abuse and somewhat graphic depiction of self harm. If any of these things may trigger you please rethink reading this story!! Started: January 21st 2020Lengkap
Mute {Cashby} *EDITING*
Mute. That's what they would call him. Alan Ashby has been mute for 1 years not speaking to nobody because he had no one simply to speak to. After his parents nearly shunned him as soon as he came out of the closet. He didn't have anyone no family nor friends to talk with. He has absolutely nothing. That was until Austin Carlile came along. He was the star baseball player at the school who happened to be openly gay and no one minded really, sure there was the few people at the school who would call him a 'fag' but he didn't care because he was happy with who he was as a person. Then everything almost shifted. He ran into some boy who caught his attention. The 'mute' kid that no one talked to. He quickly gained interest in the little ginger and wanted to befriend him or maybe something more but first he needed to find out exactly why the ginger was mute in the first place.Lengkap
Not the Only One
"I'm not perfect. If you know my life story it would change your mind," I admit, looking down. Yes, I hate my past and yes, I'm most definitely not perfect. I untangle myself from Dante and get off the bed, turning to look at them all. "I need to go back to my hotel room to change." The response is instantaneous. All men frown and begin to protest. "You're staying here, sweetheart-" "Don't do this, love-" "Babygirl, stay with us-" I'm sure they don't all love me that much. It's probably a short-term love, temporary. I'm certain in a few months time they won't love me or want me to stay with them. "I'd love to stay but-" I begin to say before they all interrupt me. "Then that's final-" "You can stay-" "Please stay-" "I don't have clothes here," I state the obvious. "Wear ours!" they all exclaim at once. * * * * * * * Lexi has moved countries to escape her past and start a new life. She wants to make her own decisions and live her own life without people judging her. A charming man meets her and helps her get settled. She meets two other charming young men who help her.

Contains scenes including suicide attempts, depression, brutal rape, extreme verbal and physical abuse, mature scenes, self harm (and things I may have forgotten) - It may be triggering to some people - If this is you, please don't read if it might trigger you I'm always here if anyone needs to talk
Beneath the Sanguine
"You think I didn't want to forget you?" Enzo's voice cracked, raw and wrecked. "I tried. God, I fucking tried." Sloan's laugh came sharp and broken. "Then try harder." He stepped closer, green eyes wild. "You don't get it. You're not something I can fucking forget." His hand found her jaw, thumb trembling against her skin. "You're every fucking thing I can't unfeel." Her voice rose, sharp with pain. "And what the fuck do you want me to do about it?" He moved in until their bodies nearly touched, one hand sliding behind her head, pulling her in until their foreheads pressed together. His voice came out low, rough, trembling against her breath. "I want you to hate me more than you miss me," he whispered. "Just once." Sloan's breath hitched sharply, her steel blue eyes locked onto his. Enzo's fingers curled tighter at the nape of her neck, and God, he swore he could feel her breath tremble against his lips. "Maybe then... I could forget you," he whispered, both of them knowing it was a lie. _______ Months after she vanished into tequila, ink, chaos, and strangers' beds, Sloan Harlow still tasted like goodbye. And Enzo Graves remembered every second. Because pretending to move on didn't mean he stopped loving her- It just meant he learned how to suffer quieter. They broke each other. Now they're trying to survive the aftermath. But Enzo's past has a pulse... And obsession hasn't forgotten her name. He stayed in the town that still smells like her-every storm, every sketch, every silence carrying her mark. She ran across oceans, chasing freedom through art, danger, and strangers who almost made her forget. She can't forget him. Every touch since has felt like pretending. He can't let her go. Not when every scar still spells her name. Two continents. One unfinished story. When love turns into memory and memory turns into hunger, what's left is the quiet between heartbeats- the place they still belong to each other.Lengkap
A Heart's Struggle
"You know when your drowning you don't actually inhale right before you black out. It's like no matter how much your freaking out, the instinct to not get any water in is so strong. That you won't open your mouth until you feel like your head is exploding. But when you finally do let it in, that's when it stops hurting its not scary anymore. Its actually kind of peaceful." I interject my therapist. " what does that have to do with anything?" She counters "Ever since Erica died I felt like I was drowning. When I overdosed that's when my heart stopped hurting and I felt peaceful. To be honest I didn't want to be saved, I had already saved myself." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Crystal meets Erica, then finds out that she has a liking for girls.

Lover, You Kill Me. (In A Good Way)
"I love you." I blurted out. Silence. My cries stopped and now I was sniffling. Please say something. Please. "Say you mean it. Please." I heard the desperation in his voice and it took me by surprise. "I mean it, I fucking love you. I can't hold it back anymore Seidan it's driving me crazy." I blurted more thoughts out. And collided did our lips do. If that makes sense. "I love you too. So much. Not just.. not just oh love you, I am in love with you Knox." Seidan said between breaths and kisses. "We can do all this when we're actually alone." I said with a laugh and I felt his hardening problem on my thigh. "Fix it for me.. please. I need you." Seidan breathed out which almost made me moan right there. "You gotta stay quiet." I said and locked the door. Single bathrooms are good for sex but I couldn't do that when there's children and my boyfriend's friends outside this bathroom. ___________________ Seidan Carmello has been wanting a lover for so long. At his halloween party, he finds himself in front of a boy from his class he's never noticed, Knox Ledger. Except, Knox wasn't having it, and rejects him 3 times from there on. Seidan feels hurt and determined to make Knox his, despite not knowing him very well. In the end, it'd work out. In Seidan's eyes. 100%. "Lover, You Kill Me.
