The Story of Us

Started out as the dramatic story of one teenage boy neglected by his family and another physically abused by his father.

They were so adorable together and although one of them suffered slightly from the “I'll push you away for your own good” syndrome, he was usually able to get some sense knocked into him. Featured two fairy godfathers who deserve their own story, and hilarious sex scenes that use the type of snarky humor that felt completely appropriate for two cheeky adolescents/young adults who love each other madly but couple their expressions of affection with crude or offbeat remarks.
