"You know, I've got so many relationships in the past but none of them, I asked myself to be their boyfriend. They are the ones who are always asking me to be their boyfriend," he confessed I want to tease him for being full of himself, but he beat me to it. "You're thinking that I'm being full of myself again right?" then he looks at me sulking I just give him a cheeky smile. "But it's true, I never asked anyone, now it's up to you to believe it or not," he murmured while shrugging "Okay fine, I will believe you now," I told him because I saw him pouting now. "Thanks, love," then he gave me an air kiss. We stayed silent for a couple of minutes, the only thing you can here was the sound of the sea and some insects that are buzzing around. "You know why I took you here?" he started talking again. "Continue," "Because I want you to remember us, me, every time you remember this place, or even go here. I'm not saying that you forgot about your past, but I want you to remember me too when you come here," he's back in his serious/emotional mode again.

Plan Of Seduction by bl_principito

"I hate you - so much Tripp." More confusion because, once more, wasn't this a good thing? "Why did you have to say that? What if," A little quieter, just above a whisper. "What if we mess up our friendship?" "But what if we don't?" "You don't know that," I bumped his nose with my finger. "And neither do you. So, why don't we give it a shot?" He bit down on his bottom lip, hesitation and worry filling his gaze. __ This is literally a story that follows the plot of two best friends realizing their feelings for each other, yes, I know, very cliche, but I enjoyed writing it. There will be mature LGBT+ content, so if you don't want to read those chapters or this story, skip it.

Can a broken soul repair another broken soul? Cover by Azer90

Look After You by vinylplanets

Chicago had never greeted the Valentines with open arms. Instead it greeted them with a slap in the face and reality served on a silver platter. Living with such a large family and such a small income was harder than anyone could have imagined especially when your best form of income comes from your mom being a hooker. Alexander is a middle child in the large family. At the prime age of fourteen he's starting to become confused about many things in his life such as where he fits in, what he wants to do when he's older and his sexuality. Nolan is in the same boat. Though he is not part of the Valentine family he got the privilege of living down the street from them. He had a slightly smaller family with only a slightly better income.

Book Two of the Haunted Lover's Duo.

In seeking the Bird's death to free himself, Louie had chained himself, once again, to his tyrant. During the war, the Bird had been unwilling to let go of Louie; after the war, Louie was unable to let go of the Bird." -Laura Hillenbrand, Unbroken: A World War Two Story of Survival, Resilience and Redemption.
