Elliot Kestle leads a dreary existence. From taking care of his sick mother, to working all the time, he can't seem to catch a break. But when a mysterious stranger crashes into his fragile world, he finds out that not all is what it seems...

"I can't remember a single thing about a particular year of my life.". This comes from 16 year old Tom Oakley who seems to have been missing for a year and so was his memory of that entire year. Join Tom as he embarks on a journey of self discovery and uncovering what happened to him in his past while battling to survive in the present. Who knew being 16 was so demanding?

Two twin boys, and gay. How to tell this story is simple but complicated. Devon a boy of 16 struggling with difficulties of a home life. Josh a boy of the same age, that has everything he wants, but one thing, his brother. Both are struggling with their past and maybe present. Hopefully they find each other. Together they might overcome, what is to come.

Jacob doesn't really like Oliver, but somehow he seems to be his first for almost everything. Marcus hates his life, and his dad, and pretty much everything in his dreary industrial town, but makes a go at trying out new things anyway. Two short stories set before The F*cking Trilogy. Contains gratuitous swearing.

17 year old Arnold has seen his fair share of life, plus interest. He navigates everyday without hope or interest until someone takes interest in him. Can he regain his "light" or is he fated to be consumed by the darkness as well?

Based on Prompt# 694 - "I'm tired of this, so I'm going home."

However, complications do occur, their friendship is tested, and choices have to be made to see if their bond can be salvaged in the long run.
