Okay hi everyone, so I am writing here to get some help, i am right now on a writers block in this modern love bxb rp.

So the storyline is two guys from the same college get in to a relationship. my character is ambitious, part off many clubs, he even leads the LGBT club. While the other guy is a creative and flirty guy. My characters parents are both in the movie industry always busy, and they love making awareness abut their GAY son, he hate that they never think of him as a person. During the Holiday he decides to visit his boyfriend at is house, because his parents are busy. But it turns out the boyfriend is still not out to his parents, yet my character decides to stay.

While the plot is okay here, it feels a bit to cliché for me, and i need something interesting to happen, to sorta change the story, make my character grow a bit more. I need some drama.

Hmm

Ideas for drama:
Parent dies unexpectedly
A family member (grandma?) Finds out about the relationship and threatens to "out" the boy still in the closet
Boy in closet feels guilty and tries to half heartedly end the relationship
Somebody cheats
Out boy's sister decides he should be with someone not afraid to proclaim their love and tries to set him up on blind dates
Out boy calls up closeted boy's parents and outs him in an effort to make him feel more confident. Backfires horribly.
Car crash leaves both boys reevaluating life priorities and existing relationships of all kinds

Closet boy is actually bi or pretending to be straight, having a straight relationship to fool himself or/and his parents.
The girl in question is deeply emotionalyl involved in the said relationship?

Thank you
