Summary
It was an illness that could've been avoided easily, if David would've just guarded his heart more closely. Still, he found himself hacking up the contents of his aching lungs in an uncomfortably cramped alleyway with thoughts of Jack Kelly clouding his head, and he realized that there really wasn't any coming back from this. He'd made a mistake and his life was totally and completely ruined over a boy who'd never spare him a second glance.
It was almost laughable, how much David loved Jack. He was a pathetic mess over the boy, with tiny blue flower petals stuck to his lips and chin, and visions of deep brown eyes swimming through his mind. David was lovelorn. Really and truly lovesick.

Summary
He also knows the dizziness dropped and turned into a wave of lightheadedness, his loss of senses had been progressing throughout the day, but it quickly ramped up as his family was sat around the table for dinner, and before he knew it, the tight grasp that feeling of “something isn’t right” had on his chest let go as suddenly as David’s consciousness did.
This is a prequel to a multi-chaptered fic I'm writing at the moment. The fainting condition isn't necessarily the main focus, but whatever I started writing this to get inspiration for that and liked it enough

Summary
David Jacobs was not a particularly impulsive individual. He'd had the same best friend since the third grade (Jack Kelly), been in love with said best friend since freshman year, and was perfectly happy with pining silently until the day he died, so long as things remained the same. Senior year rolled around, and the aforementioned best friend got a girlfriend. New relationships toss David and Jack's relationship into turmoil, and David finds that the consequences of acting before thinking can be unfortunately extreme.

Summary
“Dad, I just really need to talk to you. I just need, like… twenty minutes or something. I know I’ve been fucking awful and you’ve got every right to not want me around, I just—I don’t have anyone else. I mean,” he laughed a bit bitterly and sadly, “I’m callin’ you, prob’ly the first person with any right to clock me when you see me.”
The line clicked, then there was a moment of silence. For a moment, David thought the voicemail system had cut off his rambling.
“David? Are you still there?”
or: childhood best friends Jack and David fall into the college drug scene, and the fallout

Summary
“I knew it!” Of course it was Davey.
“God Davey, you sure know how to give a guy a heart attack,” Crutchie held his chest and let out a breath of annoyance disguised as surprise.
“Sorry. I just-” He sighed, bouncing slightly on his heels, “You lied,” he pointed out.
Crutchie pinched the bridge of his nose. “And I formally apologize for that Davey, now can I help you with something or would you like to get on to the evening edition.”
~~~
Or, David notices when his friend is struggling, Crutchie learns to accept help.

Summary
So I decided to take a break from my main series and try a different writing style for a little bit, just to see if I like it.
I’ll still use my usual style for the other stories, but this series is an experiment.

Summary
Even the great Jack Kelly isn't immune to sickness every once in a while, no matter what he likes to say. This time around, though, he'd made the rookie mistake of fainting in front of David, and is suffering the consequences by being held captive in the Jacobs' apartment until they deem him better.
Actually, it might not be all that bad.
OR: Jack gets sick and recovers in the Jacobs' apartment, with no small amount of tomfoolery.

Summary
This is a draft of a fic i was working on for some time, but I lost interest in it, and motivation. However, I didn't want it to be lost to the world, because I figured that some people might be interested in the concepts or find inspiration it it.
THIS IS NOT A FINISHED WORK SO PLEASE DON'T JUDGE IT AS SUCH
This draft is dialogue heavy, because that's kind of the only part of writing I like -

Summary
Davey didn’t think much of when his parents entered his room before he went to sleep. He didn’t think he’d be standing outside an all too familiar building in the middle of a cool New York evening either. Despite the troubles he runs into along the way, he knows he can count on one person to always reassure him that everything will be alright.

Summary
Something deep inside him told David that it was manipulation. Children were already easy to manipulate, let alone a kid like Les. He was stubborn, but loyal to a fault. When Jack started signing with him, that was an open invitation for Les to decide he was good no matter how many times David and Sarah explained that knowing sign language doesn’t make them a good person. Somehow, Les still hadn’t fully accepted that.
David couldn’t blame him too much. The kid lived in a world where people overwhelmingly thought of him like a pet more than a child and he’d never gotten to experience the deaf school back home. Les had never experienced the ability to just live–if someone had taken the time to learn an extra language and communicate with him, they were on his side. While it was a nice idea and the last thing anyone wanted Les to do was grow up quicker, it wasn’t true and he’d get hurt sooner or later.
David just had a feeling that ‘later’ would come sooner with Jack in the picture.
