Thanks to everyone who read my first story. I decided to get this started in chapters as a way to keep the ball rolling. Tom I read a lot. It's not what people expect when they first meet me, but I can't totally control first impressions, so I gave up trying a long time ago. For a bookworm, I'm kind of big and rough looking: tallish and a little burly. I...
The final chapter for this story. It's 2.27am right now, my energy levels are zilch and I've just completed it. My bad, and I'll try to release all the chapters at once for a story next time. Have fun. ***** "Jake." I turned to look at the person who'd called out my name. Keisuke was standing several paces behind me, an unreadable expression on his face....
Content/trigger warning: This series contains bullying, homophobic language, and non-consensual sexual acts, but they are integral to the plot and character development so please take them in context. JESSE It's the first day back at school, and I never knew that a summer could crawl by so slowly. Despite myself I went back to the cove whenever I could fo...
Marcus Hennley watched as the city of Boston passed him by outside the window of the yellow cab he was presently sitting in.

It wasn't until the last band he had met with that he found a new band home. The group ReAmpe...

It had been too long since the wolf had been free... Starting off with a slow trot, it remembered all the times and many miles it had ran through those woods. With the wind in its face and the soft mossy forest floor under its paws, the large black wolf ran. It ran, chased small prey, and smelled all the things that it had been missing. This is what it had n...
I *noticed* Altair. Oh yes, I did. I didn't know what was wrong with me, noticing him, a man, in the way I did, those sharp cheekbones, long legs, that straight back, and the way the curly hair fell across his eyes. Those blue-gray eyes, that saw through everything, that seemed to see right through me when he looked at me with his cool gaze. That brain! He p...
John and I had always joked about going out for a beer whenever he'd come in for a bite to eat. I'd never seriously thought wed actually do it, but then I never thought I'd do half the things I did with him after that night . . .. It was a night not that different from any other. After six and my shift was over, I tugged at my work clothes and tossed my he...
It was the eleventy-eleventh day of the year, the last day of April or the first of May, depending upon whether one used the archaic or the runic measurement of days. But irrespective of which calendar system was complied with, Frilbo Bobbit and his three chums were relishing the benefit of the Spring sunshine. And such a glorious vernal day it was too! The...
Author's Note: This is my first attempt at a true fantasy story. Much inspiration was taken from Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, as well as several anime I've watched over the years. +++++ The rising sun gradually woke me up and I opened my eyes. Like most days, there was a moment where I was blandly content, but then the reality of what the day held...
