Being the new girl, officially sucks.
Being the new Goth girl, wholeheartedly sucks.
Being the new Goth girl, with horrific baggage, truly sucks.
At my old school, I was thought of as 'cool and quirky'.
Here, I'm just the weird new girl - the weird new girl whose parents are divorcing.
I get stared at.
Whispered about.
Socially ostracised.
I just know that my entire school life is now going to be an endless bout of loneliness and humiliation.
Only, it would seem that Chas Summers doesn't think so.
He has just stuffed a piece of paper in the back pocket of my jeans with one of his cocky and welcoming smiles.
Now this boy, really is cool and quirky.
A bit of a rebel, but he's definitely no rebel without a cause.
That cocky smile of his, tells me that this could be the coming together of two quirky kindred spirits.
That smile, tells me that I could have found my first friend here.
Maybe being the new girl, isn't going to be so bad after all?
Maybe being the new girl, will have its advantages?
Maybe being me, is actually okay?
I'm Mindy Diaz.
The new Goth girl.
Quirky and proud.

Virgin Lips
Joanna Brooks had her life all planned. She'd have graduated in time, got a great job, had a successful career. In the middle there would have been a relationship or two maybe, but by the age of 25, she'd have been happily in a stable relationship, working for a well known newspaper as journalist. She'd have never guessed, when she was 12, that none of these plans would work out. 28 years old, stuck with a crappy job and no love life whatsoever. Future seemed as bleakas ever. With two new kittens, Joanna was readying herself to start her life as crazy cat lady...but her new neighbor, handsome and lovely photographer Ben Harris, doesn't seem to think it that way, as he gets ready to revolutionize her whole existence. Trouble is, his own life is not as crystal clear as he pretends it is. Add two pervasive friends determined to close the chapter in Joanna's life called "virginity" by hooking her up with their cute brother, plus an unsettling return, and you get Joanna's adventure of a lifetime.

"What's wrong with you? You seem like you just got your heart broken by your girlfriend who is running away with a fifty-year-old man." If it is in any other situation, Cameron would have laugh but now he is in too much pain that he ignores her sarcasm. "I need your help," is all that he could muster. ••• Hazel Ryder used to be a person that was always for everyone when they need a listener, given that she is gifted with the ability to read people and is an empath. She could read people by staring into their eyes and even sometimes, by a touch while at the same time transfer emotions into them. But that was two years ago. Now she is this cold girl that everyone knows about but is afraid of, resulting in her being called 'witch', 'freak', 'weirdo' and all the names that goes along with it... But to Cameron's eyes, the new guy who had just moved there to finish his last year in Hillary High, he sees Hazel as a mystery. He is intrigued by her ability but scared at the same time. Cameron, with his charming smile and cheerful personality, hides some dark misery from his past and he is not about to let some mysterious so-called witch and her so-called ability to read people know about it. Until he accidentally grabbed her one day when she dropped something and she saw a vision. She ran away, of course, horrified by what she had just saw. He wants to know why, at the same time he wants to forget everything and just lives his life normally. Then one day his past comes haunting back at him and he could only think about one person in his mind to ask for help. So let's just say it is a surprise for Hazel when she finds Cameron at her doorstep, practically begging her to read him. This story tells about friendship, family, society, empathy and love... so hop right in.Complete
The Boy She Saw in the Hospital
"Death isn't just one thing that happens and is over with. That description fits life more. Death is eternal. I mean that's how I view it. Death brings joy and pain. In my opinion life should be viewed as death is. The end. Death is the beginning. A new life, a fresh new start. Its beauty is unmatched. I imagine it feels like stars bursting, a million smiles and just pure happiness." Cancer. What a pain. Valerie's crippling illness leaves her hospitalised, bored out of her mind, dreaming of how she just wants to be a normal teenager. Although her thoughts are constantly intruded by someone. The boy. She was intrigued by him, he visited everyday at the same time, 2:47pm. She wanted to know his story, why was he here? Is he visiting someone? Her curiosity overflowed her. Anyways, it didn't matter, for her illness was getting better and she could finally get back to school. Sophomore year. Gosh. She could finally be a normal teenager. Then she saw "him" in the school hallways. The boy. Although he seemed different, less warm, more cold. It was like he put up a façade and barricaded his true self. His true self being... the boy she saw in the hospital. 🥇First place in The Star Awards 🥇First place in The Ember Awards #24 in sadromance #15 in cancerpatient finished- 22/09/22Complete

[COMPLETE] They say weddings are eventful, to say the least. Anything could happen. What I didn't expect however, was him. My mistake. It's been years since we last spoke- he drives me crazy, in ways no one else has. Being back home and reunited with old friends, was about to get messy. ~ "Morning sleeping beauty," He drawled, leaning against the counter mixing his protein shake vigorously. "Well then you must be the beast and not the prince." I retorted, rummaging through the pantry for some granola I could have with greek yoghurt. "Yeah," he shrugged. I put my bowl and ingredients on the table and frowned. Did... he... just agree with me? "In the gym, in the office... and definitely in bed," he winked. Oh. There it was. He's so full of himself. I rolled my eyes, proceeding to make myself breakfast. It's too early for this. ~ Follow along as two individuals encounter each other once again as adults, whilst their teenage histories shadow over them with every step.

Settling Slowly
2015 rolled in with a bang, and it did not have the grace to gift me with a social life that everyone in a one hundred year radius would be jealous of or that is even just the talk of the town. Instead I got myself into a complicated relationship which wasn't much talked about, a relationship that I didn't get into is talked about all the time and university is around the figurative corner. That is where you can factor in people I suppose I should call 'fans', the fascination that comes in with cutlery, pots, pans and other formerly boring things. But let us not forget that my parents are finally getting married and Mum can't shop for lace without me wanting to kill her, add in a dose of sleepless nights, invigorating kisses - which have nothing to do with the sleepless nights and a lot to do with nightmares - Harriet not knowing the meaning of the words "you're done" and Ice Ice Baby is still a thing. We're all growing up (except Dad who will still make inappropriate jokes at every inappropriate moment, some to do with what cannot be done when you're wearing a plaster cast) and holidays are being planned though some are less holiday and more a mad dash to find somewhere to live out in the big wide world without our parents. Life might be moving on, but I still go to McDonald's late at night with my friends. Some things at least don't change. Sequel to: Falling Fast CompleteComplete
The Best Kind of Betrayal
It's the first day of June's senior year and everything is already going wrong. Her first boyfriend and supposedly love of her life dumps her for someone else, her heart is broken and feels like it won't ever heal again and her best friend makes her join the most unnecessary club on earth to help her find new friends she most definitely does not need. Still. New chances are for new beginnings, right? Instead of falling into a deep dark pit of self pity (however tempting that may sound), all of this betrayal ends up leading her to the best friends she's ever had and the most exciting school year of her life. Oh - and a whole new fake boyfriend, to get some revenge on that idiot who dumped her. And who knows. Maybe even more.
