[Disclaimer: I wrote this when I was thirteen. It's kinda bad. Read at your own discretion.]

After the mysterious death of Lucy Blanchard's parents, she's forced to live with her grandmother in Middle of Nowhere, USA. Only nobody under the age of 60 is allowed to live in Maple Oaks Retirement Home. At least permanently. 

Pitying her granddaughter, Granny Blanchard decides to enroll Lucy in a supposed 'excellent boarding school' free of charge. Once there does Lucy realize that her grandmother omitted one teensy, tiny little detail. Walker Institute was excellent, yes. Had a boarding house, yes. There was one thing about it that was not, though. It was not a school. 

Walker Institute was an asylum.

Formerly called 'Withered' Highest Ranking as of 5/18/2018: #5 in Matureaudience; 12/7/2018: #3 in ied I gulped as his hand cupped my jaw, "Tell me River. Are you scared of me?" He asked and I looked up at his eyes. I didn't have to ponder over the matter long. "I don't know." I said softly. Daimen frowned and studied me for a while, "Just wondering, because you seem to love pissing me off. And most people don't. So I guess you need some figuring out to do." ********* Daimen and River were both seniors at the same high school, they took some of the same classes, walked the same halls, live in fair distance from each other, but they couldn't have been more different. When high school was over River and Daimen became ghosts to each other but then years later fate decides to bring them back together. River Sparrow hates confrontation. She's jumpy, but tries to see the bright side of situations. She's quiet, soft spoken, the "teacher's pet," and keeps to herself a lot. She's a volunteer at the local animal shelter and loves one dog in particular the most. Daimen Princeston would fight in a heartbeat. He's strong, intimidating, and pretty much has people running for the hills at the very aspect of him getting angry. His devil-may-care attitude swirls around him and no one wants to get on his bad side. Of course River is afraid of him, and she has a good right to be. But when River starts to learn more of the young man everyone fears she starts to see him in a new way. After some time feelings grow stronger and she hopes she's not fallen for a murderer. And if she has, who is she to deny him the love he so desperately needs?

[ THE MIDNIGHT CLUB 2022] CELESTE PARK was admitted into Brightcliffe Hospice just because she was crazy. That's what the other kids in her neighborhood used to say. Her doctor said it was Schizophrenia. A brain disorder as all the adults had agreed on. For Celeste, she'd believed it was neither yet she had no choice but to oblige. Because no one would believe her if she'd said there were shadowed people walking down the hallway of her home through the gap of her doorway in the dark. If she'd said there was a small kid whose mouth sealed tight, standing in the corner of her bedroom holding a china doll. If she'd said she'd been hearing voices in the dead of night that not even her parents or any of her friends could. Celeste grew up in a family loved by many, and that automatically made her popular at her own school. She was a healthy normal girl since kindergarten, leading up to her highschool year; Junior. Where it all went downhill that led to a car accident, all thanks to her seeing a bent neck lady at the backseat of her car. There's nothing more than a popular girl gone crazy. Because of Park's reputation, to save it, her parents sent her to the Hospice randomly in hopes for her to recover. But months have passed, instead of getting better, she became worse. She was secluded from the rest of her friends, she wasn't allowed to leave the building unless she had an escort. Her parents had given up on her and had stopped visiting her on family day. Celeste lost all hope. That was until Ilonka came.

***this book contains suicidal thoughts and tendencies, may not be appropriate for younger audiences*** In which she looks for the purpose of life. Lily Carter's parents died in a car crash leaving her and Laura, girl was depressed long before her parents passed away and with all the problems turning up now, Lily felt more miserable - if that's even possible. With her journey to look for life's purpose and grab the small pinch of HOPE - which is ironically her second name -, will she finally snap at the pressure and finally end it all? or will a small light lit her darkened world of grief and loneliness? * "So you know. The little goth girl who gets bullied is indeed a mess. There's this mess in her head that eats her alive everyday isn't it? What to do now Kaden? Tell the whole neighborhood and recieve an award for taking out a crazy in this world?" I spit like vomit. His eyes warmed up as I finished, "Lily. It isn't like that" "What is it then? People stopped caring... they gave up, why aren't you?" I fought my tears. "Because I feel the need to care. Did Leigh hurt you? Did she hit you?" he finally noticed the unusual redness of my cheek. I don't like the way he told me he needed to care for me. I felt like an obligation, a responsibility that he is carrying and carrying leads to getting tired and when people gets tired, they give up. I don't want them to give up on me. But they will, so it's good not to make them care for me in the first place. "I never needed anyone. I stopped needing anyone before, why start now?" I uttered the words again. Why? There is nothing to fight for. No mama. No papa. No sister to love me. No one. So why would I waste my life and the time of others to fix what is already broken - and someone who doesn't want to be fixed? If I may add. Maybe I gave up. No, scratch that. I gave up a long time ago - when my parents died, my hope and purpose went away with them.

"So you like cuddling with me?" she asks me "if I say yes can I cuddle you more?" I ask her "No" she says to me "Then no I don't like cuddling with you" I say to her picking up my hoodie and pants she wasn't wearing before throwing her over my shoulder. "Blue eyes put me down now" she says punching my back "Not happening" I say walking quietly down the hall to not wake anyone. "At least hold me where you can't see my underwear" she says to me "Thanks for the idea" I say to her looking quickly at the blue lacy underwear that matches my shirt on her "I like the blue matches my shirt" "Shut up" she grumbles ---------- "Fine your ass looks really fuck-able in these tight sweats" she taps my ass laughing ---------- "Let me down" she says to me "If you insist" I say to her slapping her ass once lightly before placing her on her feet ---------- Meet Daniel Matthews the nerd who is bullied, when he was younger his dad was never good to him, Daniel's dad does not want him happy. Daniel's neighbor Adrianna never talk but one day she needs a place to get away from her dad and they become friends, but only her friends know and he is still bullied. Meet Adrianna Robertson the bad girl is what people call her, when she was younger her mom left her the day she was born with her controlling father.

She went back completely wasted and needed a place to stay for the night since her dad was on her ass about getting drunk so she stays with him. I hope you like the book, there is going to a mild amount of swearing and lots of drinking and smoking. Everything is made up beside the state they live in. I have never drank or smoked before so if it's not correct I'm sorry in advance. I hope you like the book, please comment and vote. Everlark2000

"She's right! She's right! I don't cut in the right spot." My hold tightens on my wrist. The red blood oozes out of my wrist. I slide up and grab my bag and run out of the bathroom. I don't care if people can see the blood I just want to get out. I race for the doors and shove through people. I earn a lot of glares and glances that read "weirdo." I ignore and push. I run to my house and lock myself in my bathroom. I don't bother closing the front door cause I don't care if people come in to kill me. I grab my razor and cut deep cuts into my arm and wrists falling into a pool of my own blood. • • • Evangeline has a great life. Friends? Check! Good grades? Check! Loving family? Check! But what if she has secrets that nobody knows of? What if the only thing she can trust is her secret diary? What if slowly but surly she's dying inside? How can an innocent twelve year old deal with these problems? Will she keep on facing these problem till the day she breaks. Her school burns down forcing her into a different school to meet different people and she has to fit into a different lifestyle as well. Meet Evangeline. Now at 17 years of age in a new high school. Not all girls anymore. No uniform. Meet Drake. Your classic bad-boy. He just moved to Saint Abigail high school. He is assigned partners with the quiet, calm, unnoticed Evangeline. As time progresses he finds that she isn't as happy on the inside as she is on the outside. Can he save her? Or is it too late? • • • Some rude language. Depression and cutting. Don't say I didn't warn you. Okay, I wrote this at the start of this year (may 2016) and I had very poor writing skills. This book hasn't been edited and the whole idea is cliche so I wouldn't recommend you read it but I'm not stopping you, either. Read at your own risk. • • • Copyright © 2017 by -moonlust.
