Feeding childhood friend who is rich and unemployed until he learns friend has a gf and suddenly confesses

When Mamoru was in 6th grade, his longtime best friend Kana confessed to him, and Mamoru panicked and broke his heart with cruel words, only to have Kana move away the next day leaving him regretting it ever since. Now in high school, Mamoru has moved to the city to live in a dorm for the first time hoping to meet Kana, and to his great fortune, his roommate turns out to be Kana. Kana falls right back into the rhythm of taking care of Mamoru, and everything is great between them until Kana kisses Mamoru during their first night together and refuses to acknowledge it or listen to Mamoru's apology. After that, Kana starts hanging out with old friends and staying out at night, and Mamoru realizes how much he doesn't know about his friend's last three years, though he's desperate to bridge that gap. A sweet story with realistic emotions. Trigger warning: homophobia.

Isa is a high school teacher troubled by a confession from his student Homura who also happens to be the younger brother of his one and only ex-girlfriend, who he dated until he realized he was gay. He's sure Homura knows and is just trying to tease him, but it turns out Homura's repeated invitations to "play" with him are just the only way he knows how to ask for Isa's affection. Not my favorite couple, but it's fine for what it is. Also includes a oneshot of Yuuji and Manabe, childhood friends who were reunited as a ramen deliveryboy and a policeman, but Yuuji worries that his pure-hearted friend will be disappointed when he realizes he's not the hero Manabe thought he was anymore. Trigger warning: dubcon, statutory rape(?)

Ch.1-3, 6 - Takehara is a working man at a mall who finds that one of his new coworkers, Amano, was his high school boyfriend who went too far with him physically before he was comfortable, and the two drifted apart. Now, Takehara wants to fix things with Amano, while Amano wants to put the past behind them. Trigger warning: noncon. Ch.4-5 - Chigira is a former athlete who quit after being raped, and he thinks his rapist is now his stalker. After a crazy one night stand with a stranger, he learns the stranger is a cop trying to catch the man who raped him, who has since moved on to others. And the rapist may be closer than he thinks. This story was weird and depressing, not for me. Trigger warnings: rape, stalking, drunk sex.

Yoh is a successful entrepreneur who has the perfect plan to get revenge on his childhood bully Mima by staying at the hotel where Mima works and treating him as a slave. It goes all too smoothly as Mima takes his abuse without question until Yoh demands to know why and Mima's personality does a 180, taking him back to his bully persona from years ago who just loves to see Yoh cry. But this time, Yoh notices something more behind Mima's bullying that keeps him coming back. I actually think their relationship is really cute Trigger warning: bullying.

Sei and Uito have been best friends since preschool, and now they're boyfriends and madly in love. This slice of life story shows some of their steamy moments between exams, going on a graduation trip, and eventually graduating and going to college. They are one of my favorite couples of all time and so sweet and fluffy, I highly recommend. Ch.6 features the side couple Niko and Yoruhiro, the owner of a bar where Sei and Uito are working and his jealous lover who can't stand another couple who thinks they love each other more. NOTE: the extra in chapter 6.5 has the little sister sneak a peek at her brother having sex, which a lot of people really don't like. I get it, but the rest of the story is so cute that I really suggest if that bothers you, just skip that chapter, don't miss out on the rest. Trigger warning: voyuerism

Haru and Io have been friends since high school, when Haru saved Io from an attempted rape and Io started trailing after him ever since. Now they work together and go out for drinks every week, but when Io's coworkers ask if it's because he's gay, he's shocked. That leads to Haru being shocked, because he thought Io had been trailing after him this whole time because he liked him! They have a cute and interesting dynamic. I think it takes a skilled author to have me going back and forth between "Haru is such a good friend and takes such good care of him!" and "Dang, Haru's kind of an asshole," within a few pages. Trigger warning: attempted rape.
