She missed her six brothers, her hometown and everyone else in it. Well... almost everyone. Caleb Kazer has been best friends with her older brothers since birth. He's the ultra smart, flirty and ever charming bad boy who has teased Belle since they could talk. He is undeniably hot and he knows it. He's arrogant, cocky and constantly teasing or antagonizing Belle. But despite all of this, she can't deny the fact that she would defend him if he were ever in trouble. She says she can't stand him, but deep down she knows things would be boring without him. Bailey 'Belle' Kalanski is this intimidatingly intelligent, fun loving spitfire of a girl that Caleb can't help but be intrigued by. He always has been, ever since they were kids.

Through nightly talks and their constant bickering the two suprisingly grow closer. What happens when, to both of their confusion and dismay, feelings start to bloom? What happens when both of their worlds come crashing down around them? They say a lot can change within a year, and although Belle likes to let go of most of the turmoil that's happened througout her life, this year would definitely be impossible to forget, no matter how hard she tried. 'Never in a Million Years' is the hilarious and heartbreaking tale of Bailey-Belle Kalanski's life, full of family, friends, love and laughter.

Those who look into Grayson's eyes only see pure fury and hatred. They all think he's beyond redemption, even Grayson himself. But not River. As the seemingly perfect good girl, River saw something more in those alluring grey eyes. Something worth holding onto. From the first time their eyes connect, both Grayson and River feel the intense, undeniable attraction between them...but neither of them understand what's pulling them together so fiercely. The closer they get and the more vulnerable they become, River has to wonder: is she saving Grayson from his darkness? Or is she just pulling him further into hers? *** He tips my head toward his with his index finger, keeping my eyes trained on him and driving me crazy with the primal look on his face. His grey eyes look heavy, filled with dark desire, and a shock runs up through my core. Everything around us disappears and all I can sense is him and the hardness pressing between my legs. "What are you doing to me, River?" he whispers, his voice raspy and utterly captivated. His face is lowering and I'm closing my eyes, waiting for soft lips to press against mine. My whole body is on fire as I hold my breath for his touch. *** Cover by @strayin

"Just hold on to me, you won't fall." Adrian assures, as I cling to his arm "unless I fall first then we're both screwed." He adds and an overwhelming urge to strangle him takes over me. Before I can say anything, Cel's shriek makes me look across the ice rink "I could have died!" she glares at Ryver who throws his hands up in exasperation and fires back "Prove it! You barely slipped." Blair sighs, rubbing her temples as she mutters "This is why we can't do nice things." "This was the last cup they had" Art grins at the cup of steaming hot chocolate before opening his mouth again but it's Elle who speaks next "Do not say what you were going to say Art." I find myself agreeing with Blair as I look over the mess that is the result of combining our group with an activity like ice skating. "I read the most effective way to rid friction between a group of people is to have an or-" Caspian snickers at the horrified looks we throw him before Adrian cuts him off. "Okay all those in agreement to vote Casp out say-" he dosen't get to finish as Casp yells "I was joking!"

Life doesn't abide by the rules of a child. Sixteen-year-old Ramona knows this. She's seen it throughout her entire life, from the way she was treated by her birth parents to the way she was thrown around the foster system with nothing but her little brother, Mason, to hold onto. Every bruised cheek and broken bone has slowly shattered Ramona's trust in the system and any foster parent she's ever met. In the end, it's only Mason she can trust. Her life is dedicated to making his better, and focused solely on sheltering him from the pain of feeling as lonely as she is. That is, until Ramona gets news one day that may just uproot everything she's ever believed about her and Mason's situation. Everything is about change for Mason, all because of a man named Owen Parker. He wants to take the only thing that Ramona has ever truly loved. He wants to adopt her brother, and there is nothing she can do to stop him. Though after years of running and years of pain, Ramona knows just how badly Mason needs a home. It's a breath of fresh air for him, a family filled with love, and everything that Mason has never had. But then, what about Ramona? She's brotherless, parentless, and alone in a city that has never cared about her. She has to find a way to cope, and she has to find a way to forgive the man who took her little boy from her. But she can't cope, she can't forgive, and she can only bend so many times before she breaks. - - Warning: This story deals with mature content that may be difficult for some to read, such as self-harm, suicide, drug use, abuse, depression, anxiety, and sexual harassment. - - Highest Ranks: |#1| - adopted |#1| - fosterkid |#1| - fostercare |#1| - foster |#1| - suicideawareness |#1| - recovery |#1| - comingofage |#1| - mentalillness |#1| - strength |#2| - adoption
