Guest Prompt #2 by Valkyrie: Write a short story (at least 500 words) in first person without using the pronoun “I”.

After a devastating loss, the protagonist finds solace in the intoxicating presence of another.

Not all friendships last forever, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they are truly beyond salvation, does it?
When JJ is outed at school, he thinks his world has fallen apart, but thanks to the support of his friends, Merry and Pete, he survives the ridicule and harassment.
Even his former best friend, Dallas, appears distant, so what will happen when the two of them are thrust together on a school camp, and then thrown into a dangerous situation? Will they be able to work past their differences? Or is their relationship truly beyond salvation?
Only time will tell!!!

This story will be a little different than my other works.

A noticeable departure will be that the characters are not in a monogamous relationship. Every chapter will have tickling, playfulness, adorable and loving characters, some sex scenes, and lots of affection. However, not every adventure will involve tickling. I'm shooting for more action packed excitement, and danger with little to no loss of life.

Everything in Emmett urges him to run away from Finley, who radiates danger. After a few encounters, however, when his healing nature takes over and tries to put a smile on the face of the constantly sad Finley, the question of what Finley actually is becomes more pressing, cause being in danger is the last thing he needs.
Fin tries rather unsuccessfully to run away from himself, with nowhere holding him for long. But Emmett's bright smile and strange blue-violet eyes intrigue him more than a little. Now if he only knew what exactly Emmett actually is, he might be able to deal with his strange-behaving dragon-side.

Two rival soccer high schoolers duel it out one on one on the field with more than just a victory on the line.

When Evan discovers an old photograph of two young men standing shoulder to shoulder in 1920s Newhaven, he uncovers the hidden story of Kit Merrick and Rowan Hale—dockworkers who dared to love each other in a world that offered them no words for it. What began as a ten-cent fairground portrait became their proof: tucked into a cap, stitched into a coat pocket, guarded through storms, family burdens, and the long work of becoming men. Decades later, as Evan frames the picture and gives it light, he realizes that their secret has outlasted silence—a fragile inch of closeness captured on film, carrying a love strong enough to endure across time.

For Jamie Vayne, life could be better, but he’s not complaining. His career as a musician might not be on the fast track, and he still has to work to earn a paycheck, but his following on a particular platform for the naughty eye in search of the sexy guy is on the rise, and his hookup success nears one hundred percent in terms of both sides’ satisfaction.

Life is far from a straight line, and certain enticing curves are to be expected. Less expected is having a curve ball thrown at him by no other than the Sunny Hill gossip rag, Xpress. (Full description inside.)
