A Kiss for Luck
Millie had auditioned, and auditioned and yes, auditioned. So far, all she had got were some bit parts, lots of rejections and lessons in how to carry more than one plate at a time. Her agent kept putting her up for parts and she kept getting rejected. Until one day in the spring, a new series was being cast and as a last ditch before she gave it all up as a bad joke, she tried again. This time, she got it. What she didn't realise was she was about to share the screen with an old drama school contemporary. One that had made the big time. One that had never forgotten her. Would she remember him? Would she remember their parting words that summer so long ago? He certainly hoped so.Complete
Midnight Falls
When you're a seventeen-year-old girl with anxiety disorder and a gorgeous, popular girl that absolutely hates your guts for who-knows-what reason bullying you whenever she gets the chance, Anna Falls has no choice but to face reality.... her life sucks. But the little sparks of hope that build up her optimistic, bright soul convince her otherwise. She will always think of one thing and that there is hope in life. Maybe even a goal. It might not be visible now, but she knew that it became as clear as a bell when she ran into Luke Carter. Twice. In one day. Second time being literally into him. -- "How about fifty-fifty?" I offer in ragged breaths. "We could have just done this from the beginning," he replies, breathing heavily. We both chuckle. I gaze into his green eyes. "Your eyes are really beautiful," I blurt out. "I know," he smirks. "Are you always that egotistic?" "It depends," he answers, pushing my hair behind my ear. I smile at him. "You're welcome then." "I never said thank you." "And I said you're welcome. Are we done, Catherine Obvious?" -- #3 in annoying: 11/18/2020 #39 in teenagers: 01/03/2021 #8 in disorder: 01/12/2021 #110 in romance: 01/19/2021 All media used within the cover does not belong to me, but belongs to the app Canva.Complete

Wednesday wouldn't mind being in love with a girl, if it didn't mean being in love with Enid. Enid wouldn't mind being in love with Wednesday, if it didn't mean being in love with a girl. OR "There are people outside this door everyday, dreaming of simply being degraded by you! You can't even be bothered to be nice to them, yet they still want you! Not everyone is as desired as you are!" She replies so silently that even with my heightened hearing, I almost didn't understand her. "Well, what if I tell you that their desires towards me are to no avail, because I got my eye on someone already." Every single expression that previously lingered around my face drops at her words.

The Voice (Luke Hemmings)
Skyler Mitchell. The girl with the tragic past, even if she doesn't say so herself. After moving from LA to Sydney with her mom she finds herself in a better place. She's happier, she has more friends... Even though she's being bullied by the school's 'populars' she doesn't let them get to her. She knows better. But when one of the 'populars' take a interest in her, she knows things are about to change. She wants nothing to do with him. But when he's kicked out of the 'populars' he changes. Drastically. A lip piercing, band shirts and black skinny jeans... Maybe there was more to him than just the annoying popular boy... He formed a band with 3 other guys, and made a YouTube channel. After that they became more and more popular and... Eventually they got asked by One Direction to be their opening act. Well, the earlier they were gone the better. Anyways, Skyler graduated High School and didn't know what to do with her life. Admit it, you shouldn't let an 18 year old choose between what to do her whole life. And she wasn't really looking forward to going to college either. So she decided to work for a year and save some money. But then her best friend Anna had to ruin her plans. She signed Skyler up for an audition for The Voice. She didn't protest though... It seemed fun and she didn't have anything to lose. But the year she auditioned the makers of the show decided to do it different. They would choose 4 judges and wouldn't tell the performers. So Skyler being Skyler, was hoping that it would be Alex Gaskarth, or Kellin Quinn. But when she walked on stage she read that one name. The name of the boy she thought she'd never see again. The boy she hated in High School. Luke Hemmings. Will he remember her? Has he changed? Will he push the red button and turn around? Will he regret it when he knows who that Voice belongs to?Complete
