Annette has been in love with her best friend Violet since... well... forever. But when something happened between them, Violet bolted as far away from Annette as possible. For two years, they've been like strangers to each other. It is the summer after graduation now and things are about to change.

~Laina~ She is a teenage girl trying to find her place in the world, just like everyone else. It is senior year and to be honest she never thought she would even make it to this point. Her long-time best friend seems to be leaving her behind and she has no idea how to deal with disintegration of the relationship she has used to define herself for the past ten years of her life. She is scared, she is anxious, she is depressed, and she is desperately trying to navigate a universally hard time. ~Brendon~ He is just living life the way he wants to. For years, he has known Alaina and they've never been much outside of acquaintances. Until one day, he takes a chance and it seems like everything clicks right into place. They mesh so incredibly well with each other, so it only seems natural when they become close friends. And then, somewhere between the little windows into herself she lets him peak through and the reassurances, he fell in love. He is a safe place for her to understand and be herself, and all he wants is her happiness. They both know that when they graduate they'll be thrust into "the real world." They both know that high school isn't forever. They both know that they'll live drastically different lives. They most definitely know better than to let this go too far. Or at least they should.

"You know this was never supposed to mean anything," she tells her from the other side of the bed. "It is not my fault you kept coming back," Laura replies to the first woman. "We both agreed on a one-time thing and that was it. You were always the one coming back," she reiterates. *********************************************************************************** One shot about two women falling in love when they fall into bed.

Short little thing about growing up, mental illness, and loving your mother.

~Completed~ "Why are you being so shy?" He whispered. "I've seen, kissed, tasted every inch of your body. There is nothing to hide." I averted my eyes feeling heat in my cheeks and hoping that he could not feel it under his fingers. He made a frustrated noise then ducked down and pressed a kiss to the base of my jaw. The fingers previously on my cheek were now tilting my head back. "Scarlett Summer," he said into my ear, "sometimes you are the most infuriating person I have ever met." "I'm sorry." I whispered. "God, why are you apologizing? It is me who should be sorry for all of the unspeakable thoughts in my mind pertaining to you. You know I was not kidding when I said I was a dominating person. I know you've experienced it first-hand. I'm too rough with you I know that. You're just so, so breakable." He whispered the last part in my ear with so much behind it. "Sometimes I think I want to break you. Just shatter you into tiny pieces." His voice was shaky as he made his confession. "Do it then." I challenged with guile, devoid of self-preservation. ********************************************************************************* Scarlett has got some issues to say the least. She lives her life in her past and she is always waiting to die. There are a few things she enjoys, like her family, but even they are a compilation of bad memories and sore spots of her past. Roman enters her life through her brother-in-law, and also ex-boyfriend, and forces just about everything to change. Love is the last she wanted. ********************************************************************************* There are some mature or triggering themes.
