What would you do if the universe gave you a second shot at love? [#1 in youngwritershortstory 12/27/19]

Alejandro Molina is perfect on the outside; he's the smart, gorgeous, and wealthy child of a famous supermodel. All of his many flaws are inside of him instead, where no one can see them until it's too late. His life is marked by roaring highs and echoing lows, both of which went unexplained until this summer-when he was diagnosed with Bipolar I disorder. With this information and a moving van full of baggage, he's ready to flee to Stanford so his worst traits and biggest insecurities can no longer haunt his life. Jordan Dawson has been Alejandro's other half since they were born-albeit a whiter, richer, and meaner one. Held like a puppet on strings by the centuries-old wealth of his family, he once found refuge in Lillian, the love of his life. Until she disappeared, that is. Two years after their last summer together, he's still picking up the pieces with another chip on his shoulder: the fact that he might love Alejandro as more than a friend now-and the fact that it will never happen. He applies to Stanford and follows his best friend to the other side of the country, but what he finds there presses reset on more than one of his relationships...in more than one way. Lillian Bennett has spent the last two years on the California coast with her family, putting herself back together after a suicide attempt and the biggest adjustment of her life. Her identity revolves around her ambition and smarts, so who will she become when a random accident sets off a chain reaction that she can't control, or even notice? Why is her ex-lover Jordan at Stanford? And why is her childhood rival Alejandro being so nice to her after years of ignoring her existence? She doesn't want either of them, right? Right? Keyframe revolves around the lives of three teenagers toeing the line between childhood and adulthood, testing their intelligence, and learning when to keep trying or to move on. Their lives are intertwined now-and they were before they even knew it themselves.

Octavia. That's the name the world knows her by. One word. One name. At seventeen, she was a girl who had her spotlight when she was whisked away to co-star in what would be an award-winning movie. From that moment on, she had never strayed away. Now, at 24, Octavia is a star and has found herself in multiple productions. As she finds herself in Milan, Italy for a new and upcoming movie she is cast in, she crosses paths with Caleb Henderson, the famous writer known to the world as Romero Henderson. However, as the production of the movie begins, Octavia immediately decides her opinion of Caleb. She doesn't like him. She borderline hates him. She hates how annoying he is. She hates the stupid, random topics he always brings up. She hates how he almost always cuts her off whenever she's speaking. She hates how attracted she is to him. I exhaled, trying to rub the tiredness off my face with my hands. I looked down at his shadow on the ground to him. His face looked as if it was glowing from the sun, his eyes narrowing from the brightness. I let my gaze trail from the exposed tattoos on his arms to the stupid smile that was still on his face. "Why are you like this?" For a moment he didn't answer me. He simply glanced at me, knowing that I meant more in the five words. The smile on his face went from pure amusement to bitterness. It was something I had never seen before and I didn't think I wanted to see him smile like that ever again. He pivoted his head towards the sun once again and in a serious tone asked, "Would you have me any other way?" Cover: @EmSlough_

a helpful guide to get you through tough times when I'm gone sincerely, the one who's no longer alive

REMOVED April 9, 2024 One notorious gay heartbreaker. One homophobic ex-best friend and his kleptomaniac brother. Mix in a sex tape, commitment issues, and some explosive chemistry. The illusion of Dreyden's perfect life can't survive this disaster. ***** Dreyden is very good at being who others wants him to be. He's an obedient, church-going son, a perfect student, the life of every party. Maintaining the equilibrium means staying in the closet at home, so it's lucky his parents don't suspect a thing when he lies. When others are happy, it's easy to forget that he isn't. After one drunk night gets out of control, Dreyden dumps his loving boyfriend rather than admit to what he did. Adrift and increasingly alienated from his friends, he finds himself sucked into Orion's dysfunctional orbit. Orion has a habit of taking things that don't belong to him, but what's worse is his angry, homophobic brother, who used to be Dreyden's best friend. Bad habits might be harder to escape than the gravity of unwanted feelings, but maybe Dreyden's equilibrium isn't as stable as he pretends. And maybe Orion is about to disrupt it all, whether Dreyden is ready or not. It's just a shame that bad people don't get happy endings. ***** Contains sexual content, profanity, underage substance use, and themes of consent, mental health, homophobia, and coming out. *featured on Wattpad's "Stories to Read OUT Loud" list* Complete at 137k words.
