    About this ebook

    Bryan Lovett and Jesse Carter met in freshman year. Bryan fell for Jesse immediately, and they became quick friends. They both land roles in an upcoming production ofThe Who's Tommy, where Bryan discovers fellow classmate Emily Harris has a crush on Jesse, too.

    When she confides to Bryan that Jesse was the first guy she ever kissed, Bryan feels certain he's been misreading the signals he thought he was getting from Jesse all along. Crushed, Bryan lets Emily talk him into helping her write a love note telling Jesse how she feels. Bryan pours his heart into the note, using his own feelings to describe hers.

    When Jesse sees Bryan and Emily together, he suspects romance might be blossoming between them ... and worries he's waited too long and has lost the chance to turn Bryan's friendship into something more. Then he finds the note from Emily, which only confuses him further.

    But when Jesse tells Bryan about the note, he's surprised to learn his friend knows about it already. Though it's signed by Emily, who really wrote the note? And, more importantly, did they mean what they said about Jesse?

    J. Tomas is a pseudonym, I'll admit it up front, under which I publish gay YA fiction. I write gay erotic romance as J.M. Snyder and publish non-gay fiction, nonfiction, and poetry as J.T. Marie. You can email me at jtomas@j-tomas.net.So who am I? A writer, a reader, a poet. A video game nerd ~ I heart Final Fantasy, Tomb Raider, and Legend of Zelda. A cat owner. A movie goer, music lover, boyband groupie. A queer author who remembers all too well the pains of high school, first love, and how it felt to ride the school bus when all the "cool" kids had their own car. Who knows what it's like to be different in a school of clones, to feel different, look different, act different.Who wants to put those feelings down on paper so others know they aren't alone.More specifically, I live in Virginia with two very spoiled cats. I have a day job that's not too bad, and I've always wanted to be a writer, so I write.

      Just a Little Note

      By J. Tomas

      Bryan Lovett sits on the edge of the stage, his back to the empty high school auditorium yawning behind him. He's a sophomore at Lakeside High and already knows he wants to major in Theatre when he gets to college. For now, he takes whatever roles he can--the Drama Club's faculty advisor is his English teacher, so he sees her after school during rehearsals as well as during fifth period every weekday.

      The school's fall production is an odd choice--a musical, which means lots of practice. Most of the students can't carry a tune in a bucket, if Bryan's being honest. Why do television shows like Glee and High School Musical pretend the average high school teenager can actually sing and dance? If they could, they'd be in a boy band or something, or on The X-Factor or American Idol, not stuck here in Lakeside High trying to hit the right notes on Pinball Wizard. Bryan's surprised the school council okayed The Who's Tommy for a student production in the first place.

      Right now, though, he's glad they did. It's almost five o'clock on a Wednesday evening, and there's no place he'd rather be than right here, on the edge of the stage, watching rehearsal. Correction--watching Jesse. If there's anyone in their school who was born for the spotlight, it's Jesse Carter.

      Bryan hasn't known Jesse very long. They went to different middle schools and live too far away to have been friends as children. But Bryan still remembers freshman year when he walked into his Earth Science class and saw Jesse's sunshine
