I never wanna grow up. We've all said it at some point in our lives. People do grow up though. That boy who cut off my ponytail in pre-school? He is a lawyer now. They girl that laughed every time someone passed gas? She is in the army fighting for our country. The boy who took my first kiss? He still hasn't grown up yet. I'm not sure I've grown up yet either.
Alexis Dais is eighteen now. She is out of high school and is going to a collage. The thing is,Luke Tward is going to the same collage. The boy who took her first kiss in third grade has the same classes as her. He is still a immature kid. He may never grow up. Alexis is starting to wonder if he ever will. But when she starts hanging out with him more, she might not want to grow up herself.

I like to tell y'all where the ideas for my stories come from. My best friend who makes covers for me came over one day and showed me this picture. It was of One Direction and it was saying how much they have grown up. I guess I don't really want to grow up. Some people take life too seriously. I want it to be fun. I want to make memories that will last forever and I can laugh about. I realize that at the end of the day, you have to grow up and face reality. But I want to have a little fun doing it ;)~Cupcakes

Catastrophically Carla (Lesbian Story)
Ages 14+ (lesbian concepts and some profanity) This is not your everyday love story, okay? It's not a chick flick either. The events and themes within my pages have meaning, depth, truth-and most of all, reality. You are about to be taken on an adventure about a girl who's life is not like everybody else's. I look like a normal teen girl, I mean, I have hair and two eyes and two hands and feet like everybody else, but I couldn't feel more different. I have two moms, yes. Let's just get that out there before you start reading and close my diary like everyone in my life has shut me out of theirs. All I want is a normal life with normal friends who don't judge me because of my home situation. I don't even remember the last time I went on a sleepover or called somebody my age. I don't mean to be a downer, because it does get better. Life gets better. Struggles are only temporary, I know that now. And by my last words reach your eyes, I've come a long way, and have grown to see potential in myself. I'm sharing this with you because I want to make a difference. I know now that I'm not the only one in the world that feels alone. I've been there, done that, and there's more loneliness to come, but for now, I feel more prepared for it. I know how it feels to sit by yourself at lunch every day and how it feels to watch others go to prom with dates and feel like shit because you don't think you'd even have any friends to go with. Please ready my diary. I am much older now, and much more wiser, and I can't wait for you to realize the potential in yourself, too.Complete

I tried to push him away but he growled at me and held me so I couldn't move. I brought my leg up and kicked him in the family jewels.

"Oh you also might want to get a cough drop for that throat of yours," with that I walked off and swayed my hips back and forth. ~~~ Read this book to find out what happens! Thanks for reading my book! I hope everyone Enjoys!Complete
Maybe
An internal voice whispered, "Call him." But I chose not to. I dismissed it once more, saying, "He never liked me anyway." Yet the dilemma lingered. "But maybe he does.

"Don't run from me Blaze it won't go well," he growls reading my thoughts causing me to freeze in my spot. "Do not ever think you can get away from me."Complete
