You know that specific horrific feeling, that you suddenly get when something rather awful occurs in your life? Something that completely flips your whole world, and literally changes who you are?

Myrna knows. 

Myrna is the cliché, innocent and happy girl, or let's say, was.
 
On one eventful day, everything shifts, everything changes, and everything is taken away from her, meaning, everything. She is forced to move to Miami to live with her aunt, and cousins, and to try to forget her haunting past.
 
She meets Elliot Gold, the town's hottest bad-boy. Not a player, not a trouble maker, only a mysterious sweetheart,-or at least that's what Myrna thinks. He only seems to come and add fuel to the fire. He's intrigued by Myrna, because somehow she seems to remind him of his own past. He can't help but want to get close, but also to sprint far away. 

Everything seems so complicated, so confused from the very beginning. Yet having a relation somehow.  A new life is there waiting for her, with many hidden secrets needing to be revealed. But could those secrets, revolve about her dreadful past memories?

Join Myrna on this exciting, mysterious, secret-revealing, sore, and loving journey.

Because who knows, Myrna might never think of what would be revealed in front of her, as her life would unfold itself in many mysterious ways.

His Sweet Lies by moonprince87
18 parts Complete Mature
Her brows furrowed. "You look like you have something specific you wanna ask me." The tips of Liam's ears turned red at Emma's very accurate observation. "I, uh... I usually just bullshit my way through projects, so I have no idea what the hell I'm doing." The corners of Emma's lips formed a small smile. Liam arched his brow. "What are you smiling at?" Her smile widened. "Nothing." Ever since Emma started going to Silver Creek High, she's been bullied over her discolored eyes. It all started when a boy brought attention to her in biology class one day, laughing at her and calling her a "freak" while the rest of the class laughed along with him. She never looked at him or saw his face; she just ran out of the room crying. She was now an outcast labeled as a freak and she wanted nothing more than to just disappear. She felt she had no purpose in life. Until her sophomore year when she fell in love with Liam, the guy every girl wanted; the guy every dude wanted to be. He had stolen her heart and she now wanted nothing more than to be with him. Unfortunately, Liam seemed to want nothing to do with Emma. He seemed to be straight up avoiding her. They never interacted for 3 whole years. That is, until now in their senior year, when they get paired up for a school project. The two must put their differences aside and try to work as a team. But as they spend more time together, feelings grow deeper, and secrets start to rise to the surface.

"Its a deal then". "Okay", he replied and before I had the chance to kick him out of my couch, outside my door away from me he placed his lips on mine. At first I was shocked, frozen in my spot and a bit irritated as I was wedged in an awkward sitting position. But soon my body began to respond, our lips moving in perfect sync, electricity skating down my spine. Slowly he let go with a mischievous glint in his eyes. "I thought we are only kissing in front of them", I said breathlessly trying to sound annoyed while clearly his stupid lips had just made me see stars. "I was just practicing. And also sealing the deal with a kiss", he smirked. "Yeah right", I quipped . "Oh come on princess, you didn't even stop me. Just admit it- that you are addicted to my kisses". At that moment it hit me, that I had sold my soul to the devil and there was no giving back. Because this particular devil smirking at me didn't do refunds. ................................

Golden Boy by ExpressCookies
36 parts Complete
This is a rewritten version of Golden Boy! It's completely new except for the names of the characters. Everyone has that one thing that they fear the most, that if they ever had to go through it, it would traumatize them. For Elliot, it was having someone break into her house. She's been scared of that ever since watching Michael Myers stalk his niece from outside her window in Halloween, a movie that she shouldn't have watched when she was 8 years old. Elliot faces her worst nightmare when a strange person with unexplainable abilities finds himself in her room, uninvited on Halloween night. She wakes up the next morning with no memory of it. Elliot's senior year was supposed to be above average, in the sense that it would actually be fun compared to the first three years of high school. It was the last year she was going to spend in her hometown Ardsley, New York, before moving across the country to LA for college. She was going to spend it going to parties with her best friend Camilla, eating fro-yo every day, and prepping for prom and graduation. Elliot would never have guessed how a certain Golden Boy would have a hand in ruining her senior year. Now she was stuck uncovering the truth as she's dragged into a whole new world she never asked to be a part of, with a boy she's never asked to become friends with, and possibly gain a new outlook of life that might just keep her in New York for longer than she would have liked.

"Why would I ignore you ?" I lied confidently. "I noticed you ignoring me, you were trying to hide me " he protested again. "Well, I don't have reason to confront you", I showed a fake attitude. "As you had reason to hit on those boys from swimming pools!" I felt humiliated, but I maintained control. "Well, I can hit on you too," I get closer to him and sniff his collar. He was astonished, then chuckled. I also smiled. "That was unexpected," he said with surprise. "You'll find out how unexpected I am if you keep bumping like this", I warned him with a grin.
