Jules doesn’t stay much longer. The conversation moves to happier things as Ryan plans to come by the house tomorrow to pack and move his belongings. Jules is all smiles as they discuss him moving out at last, which makes Ryan so happy. Her clear adoration for Jasper is so heartwarming, Ryan’s heart is filled with relief. He doesn’t miss the occasional flashes of sadness in Jasper’s eyes, though. He’s glad when his mom says, “Darling, you look exhausted. I’ll leave you alone,” finishes her

“You’ve told him about me, haven’t you?” Jordan shoots Leo a look. In the ambush panic, Ace blurts out a quick, “I’m sorry.” Tears fill his eyes as he realizes how stupid he’s been. He thought Leo was moving on from him when he saw them together tonight, but Leo was never his. Jordan has been in the background of their arrangement the entire time and Ace hadn’t thought to ask. Jordan tilts his head, frowning at Ace like he’s oblivious to what he’s walked in on. “What are you sorry for?

The reflections of framed records behind a mahogany desk demand Jasper’s attention the moment he enters the spacious office. Opposite the desk is a wall covered with concert photos of various artists, the performers standing proudly by a black man in the artist’s merchandise with an equally proud grin on his face in each one. Jasper recognizes most of the artists for their music and the award shows and after parties they’ve attended. He’s trying to think of a single time he’s seen any of their n

Shock washes over Ryan, sending his heart rate through the roof and his mouth dry. “Whoa, what are you doing?” Jasper pulls a golden key from his pocket. “Ryan Kurtis, will you move in with me?” he grins, holding up the key. Ryan relaxes, placing a hand over his heart and taking a few deep breaths, relieved. “God, I thought you were proposing.” “Wow, I guess I won’t take the engagement ring from my other pocket then,” Jasper says in his usual sarcastic tone. “Oh, it’s just, i

“Are you good if I go sort that out?” Leo asks Jordan as he watches Ace sneak down the stairs to the basement. Jordan sighs, leaning his head against Leo’s shoulder. “He is gorgeous. A definite upgrade.” Leo kisses his forehead. “You know you can’t upgrade perfection, Jord. You’ve got nothing to be insecure about. Besides, I told you he’s back with Carter. I just want to see if he’s open to hearing you out, or if he’s in the denial stage. I’m not going to put you in the position to be

“You haven’t seen the photos?” “Uh?” Jasper doesn’t have time to answer Blake’s question before the security guard opens the bedroom door, almost walking in on Ryan, coming out of the bathroom, naked. The poor man is lucky he’s holding his towel and able to cover himself. “You stay right there. Don’t move.” Jasper walks into the bathroom and returns with a robe, then helps Ryan put it on to save his dignity. “Blake, can he get dressed in your room? Or are there cameras in yours, too?”

Adrenaline swirls wildly, descending through every single nerve in Jasper’s body. Excitement mixes with fear until he can’t tell one feeling from the other anymore. The darkness of the stage falls into the audience and appears to stretch infinitely as he stands frozen in disbelief at what he’s just done. What Ryan has just done. The piercing screams and cheers of the audience flood Jasper’s ears, distorting nightmarishly through his intensifying panic. Jasper’s legs are growing weak th

Jasper Reid is out, and the world knows he and Ryan are together. Surely the rumors will end, and everyone can mind their own business so the couple can have a normal relationship now, right? Apparently not. With their rising fame comes frustrating and tiring challenges. After a career opportunity tears the newly-public couple apart, Jasper and Ryan must learn to trust one another and work through their own pasts, fears, and doubts. Can the relationship survive the endless drama? Or will the problems they are both learning to leave behind ruin everything they are working towards?

The last thing Leo deserves is Ace’s silence, but after realizing things were getting too comfortable, Ace doesn’t know where things stand anymore. They weren’t meant to complicate their relationship by getting feelings involved, but Leo had made it very clear that he cares about Ace. Caring wasn’t part of the agreement. Ace didn’t go into this with the intention of having anything with Leo beyond the casual hook-ups. They’re supposed to be mutually using each other, nothing more. Yet Ace i

The morning of the final concert is upon them all before they know it, and a week worth of half-assed shows is finally about to be worth it. “You guys awake?” Simon knocks on the door a moment before opening it, no doubt wondering why of all days, Jasper isn’t the first one out of bed. Anticipation had made him an early riser throughout this nightmare tour. Ryan is on the bed, the sheets up to his arms and one leg bent, his phone in his hands. “Where’s Jasper?” Simon asks. Ry

“Excited for your mini tour?” Chris asks as he meets the boys in the hotel’s lobby. Jasper flashes a devious grin at Chris. “Oh, you don’t know the half of it.” “I’ve booked you all in a twin room. Jasper, just remember you’re sharing the room with the other guys, alright,” Chris warns as he passes Simon the room keys. Jasper frowns. “Yeah, and?” “Be mindful and appropriate,” Chris states. “What do you mean?” “You know what I mean. Just remember there are other peop

Leo has never liked hate before, but he’s becoming the epitome of ‘he’s only mean because he likes you’, and he’s not sure whether to feel good about that or not. If it wasn’t getting Ace so worked up in all the right ways, there’s no way in hell he’d be able to keep this up. He’s also finding, to his surprise, this isn’t just doing something for Ace. Sure, Ace is the one intended to benefit from his bullying, but the running commentary of snarky remarks in his head is fuelling Leo’s excitement

Jasper’s plan to come out during their last show creates a fresh buzz of energy in the band. Simon and Luke agreed to the idea without hesitation. It’d be a fitting end to their tumultuous management to simply use the stage as a platform to quit. But as Jasper was the one to bring this to their attention in the first place, and who’d gone through the most drama, it makes sense that he serve up some good old revenge in the process. Blake is, of course, thrilled by the idea. Maybe to the poin

During the days leading up to the mini tour, band tension hits an all-time high. Chris makes increasingly stupid decisions about their styles and overall performance plan. Because of the still circulating rumors of his sexuality, Jasper is under strict orders not to be affectionate or perform any kind of fan service with the other members. To show that Ryan isn’t needed in the band, Chris declares there will be no dancing. He focuses his song choices on the less popular ones, and apparently thin

“Nice hickey.” Leo says, though he’s a little jealous to see the mark on Ace’s neck. Given he’s walking over with Taylor, he’s wondering if there was something going on between the two when they were roommates. “Carter,” Ace says, covering the mark with his hand. It’s only then that Leo notices Ace isn’t blushing like he’d been earlier when Leo teased him over the dress, he’s teary eyed and seems more nervous than embarrassed. Anger bursts through Leo as he realizes that’s what the cha

All the flirting has Jasper on the edge of desperately wanting to be alone with Ryan and also a little confused about what exactly they are going to do when they are home. The logical idea is to nap, but there’s excitement and anticipation at the thought of complete privacy together. No matter how much Jasper wants to move the relationship forwards, Ryan kissing his ex has put a divot in the road. Jasper knows he can’t just forget that, even if his body wants him to. As soon as they get to

The sound of the building’s fire alarm pulls them from their peaceful sleep. “What the hell?” Jasper rubs his eyes and grabs his phone to check the time just as his door opens. Blake rubs his still half-closed eyes. “Jas, is Ryan with you?” he asks, his voice croaky. Ryan sits up in bed beside Jasper. Blake stares at them for a moment, then his attention drifts to the clothes on the floor. “Put your clothes on. Everyone in the building is being evacuated.” The door closes and the

It’s midday before Ace wakes up. He’s a little confused and disorientated at first, looking over at Taylor’s bed and seeing the strewn mess of sheets. It takes Ace a few moments to remember Taylor was ‘abducted’, then to remember what he’d done in the early hours of the morning. He’s almost wondering if he’d dreamed of meeting up with Leo in a bathroom, but a text on his phone sends his heart racing. Party at the frat tonight to celebrate the new pledges. Even desperate rejects are invited.

Their first celebrity party does not disappoint. The after party is in full swing even though the band arrive only an hour after they’d left the show. They walk into the venue, which Blake cynically describes as, “a rich person’s version of a college house party.” A well-decorated mansion with waiters wandering around with food platters or serving top shelf drinks. The authentic versions of celebrities are well on display. Awkward flirting and unexpected hook-ups are happening everywhere. T

The Teen Music Awards is exactly what the group needs after the rough week they’d had. It’s set to be a busy night, acting like the untouchable pop artists they are in the eyes of their fans, and keeping all the attention off their personal lives. Especially with the fan meeting scheduled after the show. At least they can unwind at the after party. They plan to talk with other bands and artists about their management and experiences, needing to learn how management works for everyone else,

The group huddles around Simon’s phone at the kitchen table, on loudspeaker to their lawyer. “I stopped recording before he threatened all of us, but I got his entire conversation with me about coming out. I’ll send it to you in a private email as he mentions the name of the guy from the photo. We don’t have evidence that he released the photo but I accuse him of it in the audio and he doesn’t deny it.” Jasper uploads the audio file as he speaks. “I’ll listen to this and get back to yo

It’d been a long night with their overnight ‘abductions’ of the new pledges to the frat and the subsequent party. The entire time Leo had spent hanging out with the newbies, he couldn’t stop thinking about what Ace might be up to. It’s difficult to get the thoughts out of his head, especially when he’s about to go to bed in the early hours of the morning. His eyes close and he pictures Ace laying on his bed, dildo in one hand, a fistful of sheets in the other. He's almost slipping into his

Jasper’s heart sinks as he scrolls past a blur of words to get to the photo halfway down the page. Taken with the full moon in just the right position behind them to show Jasper clear as day, kissing someone too dark to be recognizable. But definitely a silhouette of a man, Ryan. As though all his blood is draining from his body, Jasper goes cold and pale. Fear runs through him, forcing his breath to hitch and his chest to tighten. A pang of violation hits him next, sending panic through ev

“Hey you.” Ryan pulls Jasper aside with a gentle frown on his face when the group goes into their practice room. “Are you alright?” “Yeah, why wouldn’t I be?” Jasper glances around to make sure they are alone. “You’ve been avoiding me all weekend after we told Blake about us. He even asked me this morning if we broke up because it’s been that obvious, you’re uncomfortable around me. Might I remind you, it’s not your face Blake will use as a punching bag if he thinks something bad has h

After an exciting week working on dance routines with Ryan, a call from Daniel about progress with their case feels well timed. With control falling back in their hands finally, Jasper is feeling increasingly unstoppable. Especially when Daniel tells them the meaning for today’s visit. “Back pay?” Simon asks. “Everything owed to you since the release of your first album.” Daniel nods and opens up the folder. “He’s already sent signed cheques of what he owes you each.” The lawyer takes
