Elijah Rosen, an introverted seventeen year old with a love for football, sneaks out almost every night to get away from the problems he faces during the day. He feels like his anxiety is taking over his life, and the only place he can go to escape it is the pitch black night right outside his window where he can be alone and let his thoughts run wild. But after he finds Adam Chang sitting at the bottom of an empty pool in the early hours of the morning with puffy red eyes and bruised hands, he begins to find comfort in something other than the dark. Only, Adam has a few problems of his own. And with pressure coming from his family, his friends, his school, and his own mind, Elijah isn't sure how he'll make it through the year. ------- "I think if you weren't here, I wouldn't be okay. I'd..." I trailed off, not wanting to say the words that we both knew were true. "Hey," he said softly, "I'm just glad I'm here, then." He started to let go of me, but I wrapped my arms around his neck and hugged him like I never had anybody else before. "I'm glad you are too." (featured by FreeTheLGBT: 1/13/2022)

"Everything is temporary." I should feel better soon. I had to believe that. "Right," Nolan said, finally smiling again. "Everything is temporary, except for us." ♫ ♫ ♫ ᴏᴀᴋʟᴇʏ ᴄᴀʀʀɪʟʟᴏ is everything you think your favorite pop star is. Kind, sensitive, and talented. Except there's one more thing: he's human, and that comes with having feelings. Oakley especially has a lot of them, but he's sure romantic love isn't one in his rotation, to the dismay of his record label. ɴᴏʟᴀɴ ᴍᴜʟʟᴇɴ grew up how you might believe your darling child actor would grow up. Repressed, burnt out, and maybe a little traumatized. Luckily for him, he cleaned up well during his hiatus, and he's ready to return to the one thing he's familiar with. When their paths cross, they find an understanding they could've only dreamed of. But learning how to love and be loved proves to be difficult when millions are watching your every move. ♫ ♫ ♫ #1 in 'boyxboy' #1 in 'freethelgbt' #3 in 'comingofage' {TW}: anxiety and panic attacks, depession, brief mentions of abusive relationships, brief mentions of drug abuse, disordered eating
