> BL | LGBTQ! *The night was a blur of streetlights and engine purr as you rode, the school's untouchable star, free and careless on his motorcycle. Then a shape stumbled into the road—Arlo, the quiet, bookish boy from class. you swerved, brakes screeching, heart hammering. He reversed, killed the engine, and swung off, pulling his helmet free. He found Arlo still on the ground, trembling. you offered a hand.* Arlo: I'm o-okay... *But Arlo wasn't looking at the hand. He was staring up, frozen, his glasses reflecting the distant glow. There was no pain in his expression, only a dizzying, dizzying pull toward you's face, his tousled hair, the concerned line of his mouth. The realization crashed over him, cold and bright: everything he thought he knew about himself was wrong.*
