BOOK 1 My name is Cassidy Reed. And live a few blocks away from John B so we mostly see each other. An old fish shack on the marsh. I live with my dad who isn't even around most of the time and when he is he's usually wasted on the couch or yelling at me. It's been 10 years since my mother walked out the door leaving me with my father who used to be a great dad but now I don't even know him. He started to drink right after my mom left and blamed me for it saying that I'm the reason she left, I'm useless, and all that type of shit. And not going to lie he scares me when he's drunk, so I lock myself in my room but that doesn't keep him from coming in. He's like those type of dad how do you call it... oh yeah, an abusive dad. He doesn't like me hanging out with the boys and Kie but I don't listen and when I don't it goes all wrong and I end up locking myself in the bathroom and crying. So my life is miserable and sometimes I think how will it be if I'm just gone for good and never come back to my dad or the house I live in that I can't even call a safe place because it isn't safe. The only place safe is when I'm with my friends that's what I call home. That's my life isn't it great? It's full of butterflies and unicorns. It's amazing. ( Gosh, I'm so done. ) And that's where this story starts. An abusive dad ( daddy issues ), no mother ( mommy issues ), and the fact that ( I forgot to tell you ) I get bullied at school, why? No idea. That's my story the life as a Pogue." [ Started : February, 24, 2023 Ended : ? ] JJ MayBank x Oc ( best friend ⇢ lovers ) Outer Banks Season 1 & 2

She was forced to be perfect. His life was like listening to a good song without knowing the meaning or noticing the flaws, you don't understand it, it's all fun colors and good dancing and good singing until you realize what you're actually singing. He was seen like that song all the time, good lifestyle and decisions until they actually read the lyrics, broken lyrics filled with messages and riddles that can't be unsolved, he was misunderstood, he was numb he was used to it and he was exhausted. She was confused, a fairytale life filled with depression and scars, her scars we sign of how many times she battled and lost but didn't give up, always forced to be perfect and to be that perfect song that everybody talked about, no flaws and no imperfections, truth is. She wasn't a song, she was just lyrics in form of puzzle pieces that were impossible to understand and connect correctly. Similar thing that riddles and puzzles have, they connect, they're almost the same but nobody can u riddle them, when people get tired of puzzles they put the pieces away, and when people don't get riddles they give up, but what if there's a person that doesn't give up, and what if there was a person that doesn't put puzzle pieces away when they can't build the puzzle?.

[COMPLETE] 18+ (but if you're not 18, I won't tell on you) --- It had been a mistake. It had all happened so fast. The look on her parents' faces when they found out had been devastating. Perhaps that was why she didn't complain when they decided to send her to a small village in Canada, away from the chaotic and luxurious Los Angeles, with the excuse of being an exchange student for a year. Grace Castle was more than happy to welcome Elizabeth "Lizzie" Wright in her modest house, along with her son Nate and, well, Aaron. It had been 2 years since Grace had taken in the troubled 18-year-old boy, after the tragedy that had occurred to him and his family. Dark and untamable like smoke, Aaron was the exact opposite of Lizzie, groomed to be the perfect woman, always following the rules, and stepping out of line only that one time. One time that cost her a year away from her old city, far away from curious ears and judging eyes. A year that was going to change her life completely, tumbling into a den of lions ready to devour her as soon as they had her in their pack as one of their own. He would not let her have it easy. It was time for sweet, docile Lizzie to face the world and its snakes. He'd make sure of that. Though... was he sure she was not just yet another wolf in a sheep's clothing? Was her heart as pure as he believed, or could it be shaded with swirls of gray smoke like his? ---
