Brendon McLahey had never been the most focused person in the world. His mind tended to drift, and more often than not he found himself in hot water because of it. Senior year of high school, however, this difficulty reached monumental heights. Every word his teachers said went in one ear and out the other. Every homework assignment he got laid untouched in a crumpled ball at the bottom of his backpack. Even football, which in the past had been the only thing he could concentrate on, was getting harder and harder. But the one thing he couldn't shake from his thoughts was his best friend, Ian Reyes. Specifically how his eyes sparkled when he laughed, and how he bit his lip when he was studying. Brendon, who was the captain and quarterback of the football team with a beautiful girlfriend and tons of friends, didn't know how to react to these strange, new feelings. So he did the only thing that seemed reasonable-he pushed Ian away.

Mr. Match (BoyxBoy) ✓
I'm Finn Vasco but that's not quite important right now. I'm a pretty sarcastic guy if I'm gonna be honest. I'm closed off and I literally only have one friend. I might hate everybody in my school... but there's this guy there. He's... let's say, dreamy, someone who I thought would never even acknowledge my existence. That guy who was too damn good to be true, who was too good for me, who was too good for... everybody! You get what I'm trying to say. He's that cliché king of the campus and a popular and attractive heartthrob and with just one wink, he can send people on their knees... That sounded so wrong, anyway. So can you blame me for being over the moon when one day, he approached me only to what? ...To ask for my help courting my freaking best friend. I knew it was stupid for me to hope I'd even have any chance with him anyway. So I just agreed to help him. Even if I was hurting myself and potentially my best friend in the process, my best friend who has been there with me through the thick and thins, I still did it... I mean what could go wrong besides literally everything? So my plan was to just set my crush and my best friend up, and then everything would be alright... right? But of course, life doesn't like it when people have it easy. *** Highest Ranking #2 on #lgbtfiction #5 on #boyxboy #6 on #gay #8 on #teenfiction *** ~ WARNING: This story contains strong language and bullying.

Noah Hayes is the kind of guy everyone notices-fun, confident, and the star quarterback of Riverview High. Everyone loves him, and everyone assumes they know him. But no one knows the truth that keeps him up at night: Noah likes boys, and he hates himself for it. He's built walls so high even he can't see over them. Julian Bennett is the opposite of Noah in every way. Quiet, shy, and sweet, he fades into the background without trying. But behind his timid demeanor lies a bold, unspoken confidence about who he is, even if no one else really notices. When Noah and Julian get paired together in class, neither expects anything beyond awkward study sessions and polite conversation. But sparks fly, and soon Julian becomes Noah's tutor-both in academics and in feelings Noah has tried to bury for years. One kiss turns into a secret relationship, and Noah finally allows himself to feel something real. For a while, everything seems perfect. Until the pressure catches up. Torn between the world he's built and the world he secretly craves, Noah makes a choice that shatters Julian's heart and leaves them both broken. When Julian shows up at one of Noah's games with his friends, Noah pretends not to care. But on the field, with the roar of the crowd and the ache of regret, Noah realizes he's at a crossroads. Will he keep running from himself, or will he risk everything to prove that what he and Julian had wasn't just a secret, but something real?Complete
