"When I saw you I fell in love, and you smiled because you knew." - William Shakespeare
_
A modern high school gay love story, loosely based on Romeo and Juliet.
_
Meet Julian Brody, 'Jules', a guy who's tall for no reason, and likes playing around with video games and computers.
Now meet, Ross Denton, a guy willing to live life on the edge, kicks balls (not that way you dirty minded human being; footballs), and is freakishly good at maths.
Alright, now add a whole heap of weird fights, characters you wish were real, characters you wish were dead, love, friendship, family, drama, tears, death, lame jokes, chocolate, drugs and real life.
That's what we like to call, 21st century Shakespeare.

BOOK TWO On the outside, Julian Douglas has everything: college athlete, good grades, friends who think he's unstoppable. But inside, he's unraveling. And the one person who ever made him feel whole-the boy he loved and lost-is the one person he can't let go of. Paul Jones is brilliant, beautiful, and broken. His art reaches millions, but behind the screens and gallery walls, he's drowning in silence, addiction, and a love that still lingers. When Julian and Paul collide again, old wounds resurface, old habits threaten to consume them, and both must decide if love is enough to heal what life has shattered. Heartbreaking, intimate, and unflinching, Alone explores the raw edges of mental illness, addiction, and the desperate, dangerous hope of holding onto someone who feels like home. : : : "I'm your boyfriend, Jules." He looked so sad then, so completely vulnerable and it was my fault. It was all my fault and I didn't notice until it was too late. "Do you forget that?" Maybe I did. Maybe I thought ignoring him would stop these feelings from surfacing, that missing him wouldn't take over if I never thought of him. And Paul had sighed, his hands coming up to wipe the few tears that hadn't fallen. His cheeks were flushed, he'd done enough crying for the day, and his hair was all over the place from his frustrated tugging. We'd both looked rough but seeing him just as a mess as I was... it made my heart hurt. So did his next words and I knew he'd already given up. "Do you wanna be with me or do you just not wanna be alone?"Complete
Leon, Leon (BoyxNB romance)
"I'm Callum. Life's not the worst it could be, but I always feel like I'm on the edge - of my friendship groups (Both of them - that's what I call talent), my family, and pretty much any possible love interest. It feels like I'm always watching a film of my life, except I can't get overpriced popcorn or batter the director in the head when it all goes to shit. But I'm trying not to be too emo about it. And then... Leon happens to come along. And through his slightly broken English (And my much more broken French), we start talking, somehow. Not really about philosophy or existentialism like I guess is the cliché - he's not John Green - but we laugh, and cry, and pretty much everything in between. And we learn a lot, too. About each other, the people around us, and ourselves." xxx (NB - Non-binary character)Complete
Oblivion
Vitium Cavum. Or, the better known 'Hollow Disease'. Five years ago, in an alternate universe, scientists were on the verge of creating the immortality drug. Only, somehow, it escaped in the early stages of development, when everyone was working to rid of all the negative side effects. Those 'side effects' practically rip a person's soul away from them. Hence the name 'Hollow' Disease, because this virus makes whoever is affected an empty shell with no soul. Now, only a handful of people around the world are currently unaffected by this disease. Some of them had their families torn apart, some lost their friends, and some lost the person they were in love with. And that's where our story begins; in the year 2019, five years after Hollow Disease nearly destroyed the entire world. [Warnings: death, blood, violence, attempted suicide, suicidal thoughts, mentions of stillbirth, and other mature themes]Complete
