My name is Stephanie, I'm 16 years old and live in Orinda. I was born in May 5th I go to Holden high school. My life is basically perfect not because my family is wealthy because it hasn't always been like that. Even before my family had money we were completely happy with money or without. My mother is a woman of faith I was born in a Christian family. My dad had money troubles when I was little but God always provided us with money and food. When my grandfather died it took us by surprise when they told us he had left two million dollars and a successful business. God always had control over our lives. But our happiness starts falling apart when I first take a glance of his blue eyes. That guy who I always said I'd reject the troublemaker who knew that the ending would be like this

My name is Katy Woodland and I'm Christian. I go to Franklin High, and I'm a freshman. I get bullied a lot, because I'm Christian, but I am not going to let that bring me or my love of God down. NEVER!

I am in this world, but I am not of this world. You, Lord, are all I have, and you give me all I need; my future is in your hands. -Psalm 16:5

Well, this is my story as a teen Christian. I love Jesus but I don't like how I am judged by adults about it. It's common topics such as forgiveness, temptation, betrayal, love. This story is very much non-fiction, it's about me and what has happened in my life with no exaggerations.

Amanda Jones and Christian Matthews, the two best friends that everyone thought was a couple. The were the closest pair of friends you would ever meet. They did everything together. They were two peas in a pod, inseperable. Until that was all thrown away when a misundersranding occured causing them to part ways. Now in their Senior year, Christian finds out something about Amanda that he failed to learn. When an accident happens, it draws them back together to rekindle their friendship. But could it be something more than just friendship? Find out in "Loving My Best friend" ********************* I swear the story is way better than this stupid description. I'm really sorry, I'm not that good with descriptions. Leave comments and express your opinions. This book was previously called 'Lucky'.

"I'm tired." I whisper, my voice breaking. "I can't do this anymore. It's too much." He pulls me closer and holds me as he always does. "You're a strong girl. People look up to you, Mina. You'll get through this, okay? You're not alone. You're a beautiful girl and you have us." I shake my head. "If ever I am, I'm just another pretty girl that's broken inside." He holds me tighter and I feel his chin resting on my head as I break down in his arms. "Well, I guess you're beautifully broken then." I sob, my body heaving at the pain, wondering how he always sees beauty in an ugly broken girl. *** Just a little warning. Though there are no graphic or detailed pictures in the story, this is a story based on a school project I had on human trafficking and abuse. Thank you for reading. (not edited. Thanks for reading:)
