Mix that with high school, crushes, soccer and a surprisingly laid back school nurse and you get a heartfelt YA novel that's not for the faint of heart. Find out how these boys fall in love, heal and deal with high school drama in this youthful tale.All Rights Reserved

Too Old For This | ✓ by saintc

Leroy Adkins is an underperformer. He barely graduated. He barely got a job, and he hardly socialized in his day-to-day life. Zachary Turner has been sick for as long as he can remember, and as he grows older the crushing realization that he never got to experience his youth or transition into a normal adult life starts to weigh on him. What happens when the two meet after a promise of cat cuddles, and the youthful giddiness of new romance and feelings bloom? They might just be a little too old for all of this.

Before The Sunrise by skylarjames17

James Hanson has never exactly been the high school quarterback stereotype. He's one of the top recruits in the country, but he's always been too shy, too sensitive, and (secretly) too gay to really fit the mold. Nobody knows about James's secret boyfriend, Rafa, but Rafa knows James's biggest secret: that his rich, powerful father has a mean streak. In October of his senior year, things come to a head. His football coach is suspicious. His friends are worried. Rafa's begging him to report his father. And his father is becoming increasingly unstable. And James doesn't know how much longer he can take it. * * * Updates whenever I get around to it. Cross-posting on AO3 as of February 26.

Theo just happening to be the star player for his school's biggest rival and his first crush only complicates matters further. When things get difficult, Charlie finds himself forced to choose between his current life following the path of least resistance or a harder but possibly more fulfilling one.
