First fanfic I ever wrote and am still in the process of finishing up. There are several chapters to it so bare with me. A laid back California girl moves to NYC with one goal on her mind: to get hired as a hair stylist at a high end salon. Little does she know that the big city has more in store for her than she though.

Emerald barely knows anything about her cousin Julian's band, until she moves in with him and meets the handsome Nick Valensi. However, as the friendship grows, different crushes and love develop, and Nick starts to show up with bruises, not only does it bring the attention of the group, but Emerald especially. A captive tale based off of two songs by The Growlers, one song by Gorillaz, and something I've read.

Jade is the typical high school loner. That is, until she meets a special someone and his wild group of friends, and is thrown into a life she'd never expected to have; roadtrips? Parties? Romance, perhaps? (This was my first Strokes fic, so obviously it's pretty badly written and quite cringeworthy to read, but if you manage to read up to the halfway point, I promise you it gets more bearable to read from there!)

When you realize everything you thought you knew about yourself isn't really true. (The Strokes fiction) Featuring Julian Casablancas, Albert Hammond Jr., Nikolai Fraiture, Fabrizio Moretti and Nick Valensi.

Blue Wilson left public school to begin anew in Dwight School, a private institution in which she meets the charming Nick Valensi and his band The Strokes.

Lucy is anxiously entering her freshman year of high school. Lucy, her fraternal twin Danny, and their best friend Heather are excited for what this new chapter in their lives will bring them. The thing that Lucy is most excited for though, is that she will be attending the same school as her lifelong crush, a boy named Julian Casablancas. Lucy has had a crush on Julian for years, ever since they were kids. But, her heart ached at the thought that she was invisible in his eyes. Nothing more than that little "booger" he's known her as for all these years. He would never in a million years pay attention to her... would he? As Lucy embarks on her journey through high school, she discovers that maybe, Julian HAS always seen her. Except, he's not the only one.

(Mainly Strokes, bits of Arctic Monkeys) When Nina leaves Sheffield for the bright lights and excitement of New York her world gets turned upside down.
