Realistic Stories

It started on Wattpad but now is EVERYWHERE with an upcoming film adaptation by Wattpad WEBTOON studios coming to Tubi. Stay tuned for film release updates! In the meantime, read the original story that inspired the film. KISSING IS THE EASY PART is published by Wattpad Books. Please order from the link in my profile. *** Being beautiful might as well be Flora Morgan's only talent. Some of the words she hates include economy class, second-hand clothes, and budget. She likes fashion, dating, not being on time and getting what she wants - until she meets Sean, who is like the clock striking midnight; he erases all her magic power. He is as mature and sophisticated as the dark roasted coffee he drinks, while she is like a lollipop: colorful, dazzling on the outside but empty calories and artificial sweeteners on the inside. The attraction is instant, but getting a kiss is only the first step. To keep their fire burning, they must accept each other's differences and decide if what they're building is strong enough to survive trials, jealousy, expectations, and the fear of becoming someone they no longer recognize.

Arjun always kept his world small. New city, new college, new people - none of it excited him. He wasn't the type to chase attention or feelings. Life was simple... until it slowly started changing in ways he never expected. Bloomed is a slow, emotional college-coming-of-age story about a quiet boy, a big city, and the unexpected way life opens up when you least expect it. A journey of first experiences, new emotions, self-growth, and the gentle beginning of something more.

Anna is nineteen, sharp-tongued, legs for days, and allergic to anyone touching what's hers (especially the green-eyed boy who quotes poetry when he kisses her). She keeps a black notebook under the mattress: every jealous thought, every imaginary rival buried in her private cemetery, every second she's terrified that loving him this hard will be the thing that finally breaks her. He knows her reputation. He knows the rumours. He stays anyway. Late-night cinemas, fogged-up car windows, lace hold-ups, and a countdown to the year 2000 that might actually end everything. One diary. One boy. One girl trying not to burn the whole city down when someone looks at him too long. #90s #polska #newadult #slowburn #jealousy #diary #mature #possessive #comingofage #poland #european #trauma

Samantha Murphy is a 21-year-old that, thanks to a friend of a friend, just moved into the house of a YouTube group named The Creatures, expecting nothing more than a place to crash for a few months. She quickly finds out that she is very, very wrong. (This takes place in 2012, so it's in the original house, but with the addition of Aleks (ImmortalHD) in the house, since he wasn't a member of the group in 2012. This is a revitalization of a fanfiction I wrote a few years ago, and I got super nostalgic so!) *I am not pro-anorexia or pro depression in any way; some elements of the story touch on that and I don't want anyone to think that I am in any way romanticizing it or am wanting to utilize it for reading amounts. It's something I have struggled with greatly in my life and still do, so I wanted to emulate something I know a lot of people struggle with as well.* U.S suicide prevention hotline: 1-800-273-8255 U.K hotline: 0300 304 7000.

Amelia Gao was supposed to be untouchable-born with a noble fate that promised a brilliant future. But her father stole her destiny to save his illegitimate daughter, Clara, using a cursed Southeast Asian fate-swapping necklace. Betrayed, sickened, and finally killed by the curse, Amelia watched her father, his mistress Sylvia, and Clara celebrate her death. Until she woke up again. Reborn at eighteen, Amelia remembers everything: the lies, the curse, and the flames that consumed her old life. Determined to take back what was stolen, she switches the cursed locket onto Clara and begins a silent, calculated revenge-supported by her reborn mother, Eleanor, and guided by the powerful spiritual master, Xuan. But fate is never simple. Amelia's awakening attracts the attention of two supernatural beings: Kael, a fallen celestial prince sworn to protect her, and The Devourer, an ancient chained monster who believes Amelia is the key to his freedom-and his lost counterpart from a forgotten lifetime. As her powers grow, so does the danger. Ancient seals crack. Old enemies stir. Family betrayals resurface. And Amelia finds herself walking a razor-thin line between two forces-one who wants to save her and one who wants to claim her. With every chapter, Amelia dismantles the Gao family's schemes while uncovering the cosmic truth behind her rebirth. In this world of curses, desire, celestial war, and twisted destiny, Amelia will reclaim the life that was stolen... Even if it means burning everything-and everyone-in her way.

A powerful story of survival, mental illness, and the fight to find hope in the darkest places. Rae's first panic attack came at six years old. He thought everyone's chest tightened like that. He thought the constant fear was normal. By the time he realized it wasn't, it was too late-the darkness had already taken root. In middle school, a black hoodie and headphones became his only defense against a world that labeled him "gothic" and made him a target. The bullying never stopped. The anxiety never left. And Rae learned the most dangerous skill of all: how to disappear. At eighteen, Emma gave him something he'd never had-hope. Someone finally saw him. But desperate to prove his worth, Rae drowned himself in debt trying to give her everything. When she left, the carefully constructed illusion of his life shattered, leaving only bills he couldn't pay and a future that didn't exist. What follows is a brutal decade of survival: dead-end jobs, evictions, suicide attempts, and psychiatric wards that offer temporary relief before the cycle begins again. Each hospitalization brings diagnosis and medication, but never enough money to maintain either. Each breakdown strips away another piece of who he thought he could be. Beyond the Hoodie is an unflinching look at what it means to live with severe mental illness in a world that demands you simply "get better." It's about the crushing weight of untreated trauma, the impossible choice between medication and rent, and the quiet violence of a society that tells you to try harder when your brain is fighting against you. But it's also about the strength it takes to ask for help. About finding community in the most unexpected places. About learning that healing isn't linear, that bad days don't erase progress, and that sometimes just surviving is enough. This is for everyone who's ever worn their pain like armor. For anyone who knows what it's like to smile while drowning.

When she was young, she had been bullied. When she grows up, she starts to have a hard time loving herself. Yet she survives. Perhaps thanks to her best friend. But... hmm. He's the same in her eyes, yet... [Deals with bad people, eating disorder, and slight abuse]

"Isn't leaving me your concept?" Ira yelled at Arjun, tears struggling to barely hold on to her lashes. And he could only glare at her angrily and leave, again. Where the Waves Return is a story about first love - the kind that changes you, heals you, and hurts you all at once. It follows Ira and Arjun, two people who held each other in their weakest moments, and lost each other when they needed to hold on most. But some loves never truly leave. They just find new ways to return.

Read it, I dare you.

This could've been nothing -and yet, somehow, it became everything. In a world where real connection feels increasingly rare, two strangers-both quietly carrying their own wounds-collide on a dating app neither of them even wanted to download. Mira Sen, 19, has always lived life gently, almost cautiously, as if afraid to take up too much space. A girl from a small apartment in a middle-class neighbourhood, she finds comfort in predictable routines: early morning bus rides to college, evenings spent sketching alone, and nights listening to music that makes her feel less invisible. She's reserved, introverted, and too used to being overlooked-by friends who forget she's there, by boys who only choose louder, brighter girls, by a world that rewards confidence she has never quite learned. Rehan Arora, 24, is everything Mira is not-or so it seems. A charming, magnetic young paramedic who grew up in a world of noise, expectations, and good intentions that often suffocated him. People see his easy jokes, his confident posture, his life filled with friends... but not the exhaustion beneath it. Not the scars from constantly being the strong one. Not the weight of a childhood where he learned to take care of everyone but himself. Rehan isn't looking for love. He's looking for something real-something that doesn't demand performance. Something that feels like breathing. Two strangers meet on a dating app for all the wrong reasons-boredom, curiosity, maybe a little loneliness. Neither expects anything real to come from a swipe made in passing. But when late-night texts turn into comfort, when vulnerability replaces small talk, and when two guarded hearts begin to feel seen for the first time... "nothing" slowly becomes the one thing they can't let go of. Raw, tender, and deeply human, This Could've Been Nothing is a story about unexpected connection, healing through honesty, and finding someone who feels like home-long before you ever meet them.

Words are anchors to the thread of hope. Words heard are nothing to a scope of hope. Words are like guns - trigger the ropes of hope. Words are instigators. Their strength imprints on the strings of hope. Hope is to believe in the unbelievable. Hope is the light you see with your eyes closed. - 𝒟𝓊𝒸𝒽𝑒𝓈𝓈 𝐸𝓁𝓁𝑒 ♡
