Evie Jones was seemingly in tact. Her life was a representation of perfection. Niall Horan was seemingly self-assured. His life a representation of indifference. On the outside, they were ideal; in no way flawed. But that was the outside- A mirage of falsity. Evie and Niall were platonic. An innocent friendship between two neighbours. But what happens when the outside walls begin to crumble and their built up perfections vanish? Will they step away? Or will they find love and stay? Niall Horan AU - this is fiction. *NOT TRANSLATING* This story will deal with issues that may cause personal triggers - depression, anxiety, and other mental disorders. If you struggle with any of these things, don't hesitate to talk to someone (a professional). You are loved and have a purpose.

"7:15, that's our time."

Ryan, a 17 year old teenage girl is hired to work with Lou Teasdale. She's excited. She will be able to get intern hours and very little pay which will all make for a good resume. But what happens when she isn't what the 5 Seconds of Summer boys expected?

Things change, from when you were young. Once, Delilah Cook lived in Sydney, was best friends with a boy called Luke Hemmings, and had big dreams of being a singer. Then the terrible, tragic and unexpected happened. Now, Delilah lives in Melbourne, is recently signed music artist, has a best friend named Emilia Jones and doesn’t think about Luke anymore. At least, that’s what she tells herself. But when Delilah finds herself on a tour with the 5SOS boys of her past, what could possibly go wrong?

New Country. New School. New Friends. New Life. New Beginning. Fresh Start. Clean Slate. Start Over. Have you ever wanted to move away and start all over again? That’s all Vanessa has ever wanted. She wants to move away from the life she has grown to hate and start her life all over again. Bullies. Abuse. Depression. Self-Hatred. Weak. Useless. Pathetic. Lost. Feeling unwanted and under-appreciated aren’t new feelings for young Vanessa Bell, living in constant fear and worry isn’t either. It can take just a few words to bring someone’s self-esteem plummeting for the ground and add a few bruises here and there and all self-worth will be lost. Feeling numb from all the pain is usually a good thing but when you’ve been hurt so much to the point where you don’t feel anything anymore. You’ll often find yourself asking “What is the point?” or “Why do I even bother?” Maybe Vanessa will find her way, maybe in a place called Sydney, maybe with the help of a boy named Luke. When Vanessa chooses to “Start All Over” maybe she’ll find it’s the best decision she’s ever made. {Warning: Will contain triggering thoughts and action and involves sensitive topics like depression, death, suicide and abuse} **This is very poorly written because when I wrote it I was 13 so please read knowing that I was a very dumb 13 year-old or read later when I've finished rewriting which is a slow process but I'm getting there, sorry** UNDERGOING EDITING COPYRIGHT © 2012-2013 CUDDLINGHEMMINGS

Sequel To: Start All Over. “Will you ever give up on me?” I ask. “Not today, not tomorrow, not in a week, not ever. I will never give up on you.” He says. ~ When life was sort of taking a turn for the better, everything around Vanessa crumbles once again. When life throws you challenges, you don't give up. No matter how much it hurts, no matter how much pain you feel, no matter how many tears you cry, no matter how much hope is lost, no matter how much hate is sent, no matter how much betrayal, heartache and anguish you are faced with, you do not give up. It isn't an option. ~ {Warning: Will contain triggering thoughts and action and involves sensitive topics like depression, death, suicide and abuse} COPYRIGHT © 2013-2014 CUDDLINGHEMMINGS
