"Hey, why are you crying? It's not normal for someone to be sitting on the sidewalk crying."

Arche didn't say a word. Tears continued to fall down his face and to be honest, it broke my heart. It was almost as bad as the time dad first hit Gan. I needed to help him.

Without thinking, I did the first thing that came to mind. My arms slid around his torso and I leaned my forehead onto his shoulder. Hot tears dripped onto my arm as he continued to let out his emotions.

"So starboy, what's going on?"

---------

Darren has never had an easy life. Between school, raising her little brother, bullies and two jobs she takes on life with two weighted arms. 

Due to her busy life she never really payed any attention to the alien race, known as the Yuconm, becoming co-habitants on earth. She never really payed attention to anything other than school and her brother Regan. That is until Arche came along.

Arche, the lonely alien boy that just enrolled in Darren's high school. While having an awkward first encounter that involved peeing and punching, Arche seemed to take a liking to the small human girl. 

Follow Darren and Arche on their worldly adventures full of potty breaks, life lessons, tears, and snacks.

24 parts Complete Mature
The blood had already leaked down my forehead, but I kept my eyes on Shane and tried to blink quickly to clear my vision. "Hang on, please. Please hang on." He pleaded, holding my body up to a sitting position. I couldn't even remember what had struck me and I was getting nervous by Shane's worried face. "I'm... it hurts." I mumbled. "I'm so sorry." He held me closer. This time tears started to form in his dark green eyes but I could tell Shane didn't want to cry in front of me. My head started to feel more dizzy and I had to give in and close my eyes, much to Shane's dismay and his protests. I probably should've just listened to him from the start when he said don't go outside in this weather, but me being pissy with him and wanting to prove a point- I did and now I'm laying on the wet grass with a gash on my temple and an even bigger one on my leg. "We'll get you to Harvey." Shane said. I could hear his voice break at the end. He picked me up and started walking. "Please wake up." I wanted to so badly but I was exhausted from the hike and spending the night in the cold and shivering for hours. Shane's warm hands under my back and legs already felt way better. "This is all my fault. The one good thing to happen in my life...." Shane let out a sob but never stopped walking. I just wanted to hug him and tell him everything was going to be alright. I could feel the blood still tripping down my leg and face, so I knew I couldn't make false promises but Shane needed me. He needs me. I'm his anchor, I'm the girl he leans on when he's feeling like he's losing. I have to do this. I opened my eyes again. --CW-- Swearing Abuse Drinking NSFW Blood Painful backstories Book cover was done by me but I used a reference from stardewvalleycowboy because i've never drawn Shane before ^^.

28 parts Ongoing Mature

An out-of-solar system colony project gone wrong meant Jessie English was stuck doing most of the work assigned to the deceased science crew. Sticking to his morals meant being left for dead by those in charge. By chance, he meets Luc, a member of the planet's sentient avian humanoid species. All Jessie wants to do now is live out the rest of his days with him, and hopefully get past the language barrier that prevents him from communicating the feelings of love he hopes are mutual. Unfortunately, sightings of a human and an alien together are more interesting to the colony's higher-ups than one would hope. *** Born the runt of his clutch, Luc had never held anyone so small, so soft... He was all Jessie had, so he would do everything to shield him from others of his kind, and by extension, protect the whole human race. -------- AVIAN has been COMPLETED on the writer's end (30 chapters + five bonus stories) and is on a bi-weekly upload schedule. Total Word Count, excluding five bonus stories: 76,500 words. Average chapter length: 2,500 words.
