In Your Dreams {Dreams duet #1}
AIDAN
I’ve known since I was twelve that I love boys. And I most certainly have a type. The pretty boy, surfer boy type of guy and the one boy I’ve been crushing on forever, despite other crushes is Thayer Keyes.
He’s hundred per cent straight, or so he says and is never without a girl in his orbit. He’s slept with most of the girls in Lockgrove Bay apparently. And looks at nerdy, never been with anyone me like I’m ocean weed.
I’ll never have a chance with him.
Things get intense with us when we finish school, things that have me questioning everything. And things are only made worse and more complicated when somehow I end up with Thayer as my roommate at university, and stupidly I completely fall for him and his charm. He keeps telling me he’s straight, and shutting me out, over and over again, but the tension between us is palpable. In an effort to stop myself from thinking about him, I turn to dating apps and another stupid idea that I really don’t want to talk about. Both are big epic failures of course. Because honestly, I’d rather have no one if I can’t have Thayer.
THAYER
I don't like boys. I have a girlfriend, fake girlfriend, but no one but her knows that. I don't like boys, but I do love one boy. Aidan Chatman makes my heart race and fills my dirty thoughts and fantasies. But I can't be with him, can't let anyone know I'm gay. I've got a reputation to maintain, and being with guys isn't going to keep up appearances, especially when the guy I want most is a nerd like Aidan. It's annoying that he's absolutely gorgeous, and gets to me like no one else with just a glance in my direction.
When I have a heated moment with him after graduation, I'm questioning myself, all my feelings for him and wondering if I'm actually gay. Or if it's just Aidan.
Ending up as roommates wasn't part of my plan, but I can't say I'm hating being in close quarters with him, especially when things get naughty between us. We shut each other out, but I know he wants me. And even though if my dad finds out and follows through on his threat of shooting me dead if I kiss a boy I want it all with Aidan. I'd honestly rather become celibate than not be with Aidan.

In My Dreams {Dreams duet #2}
Ryan
When the guy I’ve been in love with for years-my best friend Jebediah-gets married, I stupidly fall down the rabbit hole of getting it on with a random hot as hades stranger after the wedding. Logan blamed our hookup on his being drunk, telling me he’s straight, and no one can know we kissed and hooked up. But even if he was drunk Logan was into me, and I’m definitely into him. He admitted things to me, in the throes of passion, feelings that he swore he’d never told anyone about feeling, and told me to never tell anyone. He’s practically ghosting me now, admitting he can’t be with me because he can’t let anyone know the secrets he’s hiding. I’ve got no one to tell Logan’s secrets to anyway, and I’m never going to see him again in reality. The only place I can be with Logan now is in my dreams.
Logan
Seeing my best friend Aidan all loved up and happy at a wedding of our mutual friends from high school, when I’m still harbouring feelings for him and my girlfriend of four years has just broken up with me is the pits. She blames me for my wandering eye, but I’ve been hiding my secret feelings and desires for years and she’s only just started to notice because we’re at the point in our lives that our friends are getting married and having babies. And I honestly can’t think of anything I’d rather not do than marry someone I don’t love. All I wanted to do at this wedding was get drunk, and hookup with a hot, willing stranger, that I didn’t have to care about in the light of day. But when hiding in the shadows, and not facing reality becomes too much after hooking up I’m forced to face a situation I never dreamed of and I have to focus on growing up and only being my true self in my dreams.
