Birthday Fic 23: Pride (In the Name of Love)

Title: Pride (In the Name of Love)
Pairing: David/David
Wordcount: ~2,300, unbetaed
Rating: PG-13, mature themes
Summary: High school AU. Cook hates labels and grand coming-out gestures, but Arch wants to go to the ball. Featuring Disney references and a possibly too-appropriate use of the likeness of Jason Mraz.

Dedication: Happy belated birthday to withoutmywingsx and tristantrakand, who were born on 11 Oct, World Coming Out Day – here’s a small coming-out story for you, with my love and bestest belated birthday wishes; sorry it’s so late! It seems HS AU is Kim’s favourite thing (although it is totally not my genre!), and Tristan wanted a coming-out story featuring protective Cook (I hope I did justice to this theme, bb). I hope you both will enjoy.

Not for profit work of fiction. Will remove upon receipt of valid cease and desist letter. Fair use of U2 and Disney ™ references; title taken from amazing and apropos U2 song by the same name.
