Summary
John B is just a senior trying to finish his internship and get out before the neuro rehab ward breaks his heart. Because watching disabled people struggle? He doesn’t think he’s built for that.
But then he walks into Room 312 and meets JJ—a boy with a bruised heart, trembling hands, and the kind of eyes you don’t forget.
After a brain injury caused by his father’s violence, JJ is left with cerebellar ataxia. He walks like a baby deer, even with a walker. Feeding himself is a mess, his speech is softer than it once was, and he hates how much help he needs. He falls more times than he can count—physically and emotionally.
And Victor Shoupe is the one who catches him. He visits after every shift, sits through every therapy session he’s allowed to, and learns the schedule of JJ’s meds like it’s second nature. He’s not biologically family—but he shows up like one. And slowly, JJ starts to believe maybe he’s not as alone as he thought.
None of them expected to find love in the darkest parts of their lives—
but sometimes, that’s exactly where it waits. -

Summary
He’s just finished the second braid when there’s a squeak from down the hall like rubber on linoleum. His head shoots up, followed quickly by Kiara’s and Cleo’s. Pope is last, his dark eyes blinking rapidly as he follows everyone’s gaze to where John B is skidding – and slipping – to a stop in front of them.
His hair stands up at every angle, the curls wild and messy the way they are after a full night of partying at The Boneyard, but his smile – though sleepy – is the brightest thing JJ has ever seen in his entire life. Teary-eyed, with a wrinkled shirt, mussed hair, and eyelids that look ready to close – John B has never looked happier.
Looking between his friends slowly, John B’s eyes eventually settle on JJ. They stare at each other – something passing between them, something JJ can feel right in the center of his chest – and then John opens his mouth and practically sobs the words, “We have a daughter.”

Summary
JJ and John B go on a school-sponsored camping trip. JJ's not so sure about it.
Written for my beloved May_39898! Her prompt: "Teen Jaybe. A mandatory school camping trip where JJ and John B are sharing a tent, the both of them wholly unprepared as usual. Just some fun chaos! The other pogues can be there or not, but I would love for it to be Jaybe centric either way!" This story kind of took on a life of its own, as they do, but I hope you enjoy it!!
