My name is Alex Bourroway and I struggle with Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. It's a lung disease and I can't breathe. At the moment there is no cure, only treatments. It does not define me. 
    
    I will update whenever I can, just like my other books and I love feedback, good or bad. This is my first real novel so please try and be kind. PLEADE DON'T COPY THIS BOOK IR FEEL THE WRATH OF A TEENAGE GIRL. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!! 
    
    This is fiction and only fiction although IPF is a real disease, Alex Bourroway is not a real person, Although she is very much so based on a real person named Alexandria Anne Rockwell who battled cystic fibrosis and died a few years ago. Most of the pictures and some of  the cover arts are indeed of Alexandria Rockwell because she is my idol. She was so strong and deserved more time than she got.

Ashes Of You And I (Completed) | ✔️ by Soulwithapen

"Her troubled eyes held fire. The kind of fire that was capable of burning me to ash." ***** I grabbed her chin with my free hand, making her look at me. "I hate that I don't know you. I hate not being a part of your life, like I was before." I leaned a little closer, as her intoxicating scent filled my lungs. "Trust me, I can't hate you, no matter how hard I tried." "So you have... " It came out as more of a question than a statement from her as she looked at me with her big blue eyes. "What?" I frowned, dropping my hand from her chin and grabbing her hand, instead. "You have tried hating me then?" She asked, tilting her head to the side. This time it sounded more like a statement than a question. "I have." I sighed, dropping my head in shame. "And it made me lose the most important person in my life." ***** One night. What harm can one night do? It can change lives. Turn best friends into enemies. Turn someone's life upside down. Emily Waters and Ryder Green, were inseparable, joint to the hip, always had each others back and loved each other behind the best friend facade. But one night changed it all.

Alexa. (#1) by SarrahSamadoni

#908 in Teen Fiction '9/12/2016' #788 in Teen Fiction '18/1/2017' Life could be really tough. It could be sunshine-y and peachy but just like that, it turns upside down and everything falls apart like an avalanche. This is exactly what happened to Alexa Gray. Alexa was the school's sunshine, everyone loved her. Until she was diagnosed with stage 4 Leukemia, and her life went down the hill. She made a promise to herself to make the last 6 weeks of her life unforgettable. So, she makes a deal with the devil- school's badboy- himself; Noah Black. But, as all stories, the Matchmaker has to interfere. A Cancer Diagnosed Girl. A Badboy. And A Bet That Changes Their Lives. ------------------- Started: 14th of May 2016 Completed: 13th of September 2016 ------------------- Cover made by the amazing @Jenikel098 ------------------- DISCLAIMER!! This novel was literally written in 4 months when I was at the age of 14 trying to overcome my obsession with the fault in our stars (yes, I used to read the book at a bare minimum of 3 times per week, if not once daily). I decided to write my own version of it and as you can see, it turned out like this. If you choose to read it and find it silly that is because it's written by a 14-year old. So, please don't write hate comments or anything. Thank you all, have a nice time reading it!

The very same her mother tragically lost her life to. And maybe in the midst of it all, there's a chance for romance. But will Parker be too stubborn to accept such a thing?

If you notice a mistake or something inaccurately written, please kindly point it out and I'll fix it as best I can. Tips as to writing it into a story are also appreciated.) *I don't own The Internship. I only own Parker and her parents.*

Lonely Lost & Found by januarygloom__

DISCLAIMER: In almost ALL chapters- Self Harm, suicidal thoughts, mental illness, smut...If any of this bothers you, be careful reading it please. Alex, a lonely 17 year old with a heart problem and a lot of anxiety is hated by nearly everyone in his school. It was stupid, he knew that, but his anxiety and depression told him otherwise. Told him that he deserved to be hated, truly. He still longed for a friend though. He'd heard a rumor about some stupid party that any other time, he wouldn't be interested in. However, for the sake of at least attempting to find a friend, he went, and he didn't regret going when a nice black and blonde haired boy struck up a conversation, and life was a crazy roller coaster ever since with the future completely unknown. A/N; I don't own Jack or Alex or All Time Low or anyone affiliated, I just like to write stories and use their faces and bits of their personalities in these writings. This is entirely fictional and my own writing. I also don't know exactly where I'm taking this story, but I'll be thinking of new ideas as they come to me and writing them out. PLEASE send me suggestions and feedback!

The Life You Love by emmaferrier

COMPLETE Elissa Fawkes is struggling - with school, with family, with life. Then one day, the infamous, popular boy from school starts talking to her. He seems to actually care about her, but Elissa has too much on her plate to be worrying about Alex Reynolds. Not that she likes him anyway. She has to sort her own life out before getting caught up in whatever Alex has on his mind. She wants to turn to her best friend but it seems that Elissa's problems may be nowhere near what Amelia is struggling with. Can she help her friend while she helps herself find the life she loves? BEGAN: MARCH 2 2018 FINISHED: APRIL 6 2018 Featured on Wattpad's Contemporary Rising Page This is a first draft manuscript that I realised is no longer a piece I connect with. However, a lot of hours went into it and I feel it deserves a bit more than being hidden in my documents folder so here it is in all it's messy glory. I'm also sharing for my beta readers who have been patiently awaiting an update and were desperate to read the next chapter despite it not being anywhere near submission worthy. So, thank you guys for the support on this piece but for now, it's time to work on a different story... and a new genre! Stay tuned!
