Perfect Strangers
Follow my Instagram for any updates and if you have any questions: @nikki_k123 Alex has been living the same life, with the same routine, repeating it every day. Every day is the same. The one thing she does look forward to is going to cafe de l'amour every morning on her way to school, where she sits and writes, all while seeing Carter Reed. The most popular boy at school who, surprisingly, prefers the solitary life. They go to the same cafe every day, sit at the same tables every day, and notice each other every day, yet are strangers who have never uttered a word to one another. And strangers they shall remain. Perfect strangers. But that's about to change. . . . . . I watched as he kept his eyes trained on the notebook in front of him where he aimlessly drew spirals and coils that surrounded each other, trapped each other, and suffocated each other. My eyes traced the movement of his pen, following each line he drew onto the paper. "Your tea." I snapped out of my trance and looked up, thanking Katy before she went back to the counter. I turned back and caught him looking at me. I expected him to look away and continue acting like I don't exist. Like he's always done and so have I. What I didn't expect was for him to walk right over and sit with me. "Hi, I'm Carter." PSA: This story is inspired by the Wattpad novel 'Caffeine' by @meddlingkids ALL RIGHTS RESERVEDComplete

Kiera has been in and out of various foster houses since she was seven. Her life was very aloof from any other ordinary kid. She never got what she wanted, never had really loving parents and never wished for anything. She just wanted to be independent. So, when, just a few months shy from turning eighteen, she's sent off to a new foster house in Manhattan, she enters the house with five thoughts. Be calm. Don't get punished. Don't cause any tantrums. Don't get friendly. And get the hell out. But what she doesn't realize is that the house is very different from the other houses she's ever been to. She was about to get furious, get punished, cause tantrums, get friendly and worse...fall in love. But life isn't a fairy tale. Not every story is supposed to have a happy ending... or does it? "Physically he was my dream, and in every other way, my nightmare..." ******************************** My first story... The story is better than its description. Since I'm not very good with descriptions, I couldn't write much. Just give it a try... ******************************** RANKINGS SO FAR: #7 badboyromance #9 confusedlove #20 toxiclove #96 badboygoodgirlComplete

Maya applied pressure to my wound. I hissed from the pain. "Stop fucking around." She rolled her eyes at me. Maya finished tending my wound, wrapping it with a bandage. As she got up to put the first aid away, I stopped her. My thumb rubbed against the cool skin of her hand. I pulled her to sit on my lap. My fingers ran through her hair. "You're doing it again." I ignored her, sinking my chin into her shoulder. "I have no idea what you're talking about." I placed small pecks on neck. Her breathing turning heavy. "Stop. Someone could walk in." "And?

A Student | ✔️
[Completed] Nysa is a Senior, her last year of high school. Fourth year of being unknown and unnoticed. Fourth year of straight As. Fourth year of depression. Fourth year of new marks on her wrist and whimpers in the bathroom. Alec is in his last year of high school too, with slight differences. Fourth year of being high-fived by everyone in the halls. Fourth year of Ds and Fs. Fourth year of drugs, alcohol and parties. Crossing paths is one cruel joke. Murmurs for Nysa turn to screams. All Alec ever avoided just keeps coming back at him. Hatred, jealousy, criminals, it's like a puppet show in which they're all destined to crumble apart. Inner demons turn to something physical; a battle between sanity and insanity. Mind games and gun games, shoplifting and somehow goodie two shoes ends up behind bars. No one said these two would be good for each other, but it's all about finding yourself. cover by LunaBooks1403Complete
The Great Pretender
Cherish had never been good at coping. She knew this. It had always been Len who'd held her together. But with Len gone, Cherish turned to the only coping mechanism she knew- denial. It was easy, simply pretend it hadn't happened; pretend he hadn't happened, pretend she hadn't happened. All she had to do was ignore any and everything that served as a reminder. Even if that meant moving and changing everything about herself and living as a shell. The problem? Everything reminded her. Her sister, her old friends, even her own skin. And she was putting so much effort into avoiding the newest truth that threatened to pull her apart, that she was letting her guard slip elsewhere. For years she'd kept a careful distance from boys, steeling her heart from a pain that scared her. And yet somehow, the strange new boys had managed, despite her best efforts, to work their way into her life. Cherish was soon going to learn that pretending was just that; pretending. That she could only patch the walls that she'd built around herself for so long. It would only be a matter of time before her dam would break and the buildup of her denials would surge through and drown her. She would need to learn to cope and trust or be washed away in the flood. Rated Mature for dark themes and substance use & abuse and languageComplete
