Petria "Tria" Kafka has been verbally bullied by popular-for-the-wrong-reasons Klaer "Talons" Armadale for three years. She's been drawn into a corner which she has stayed in and never dared to venture out of.  

When she's suddenly on the brink of physical bullying, her best friend, the beautiful Mianna "Don't Call Me Mia" Bavaro can no longer stand watching by the sidelines. 

She challenges Tria to do one thing. One thing that goes against their very character. One thing to show Klaer that Tria isn't her over-chewed gum on the bottom of her over-the-top Adidas Superstars. One thing to gently lead Petria out of her corner. 

As Petria is swept up into a relationship with the school's Badminton captain, Clarke "SuperNurse" Torelli (who is best friends with Darrin "The Hot One" Noakes), she holds a new grasp on life she never had before.  She feels special all of a sudden. 

But that grasp begins to slip as her 'semi-anorexia' becomes less 'semi', Klaer's bullying doesn't cease and her mother becomes unfamiliar...

Petria, Mianna, Clarke and Darrin must stick together to hold each other up and escape the shackles of bullying. 

A book about feeling good about yourself, ignoring those who don't make you feel special and sticking with those you love.

----------

To those who are being bullied, have been bullied, or are the bully: 
I wrote this story for you, I also wrote it for those who have supported me through my small burst of being bullied, and for that one guy who stood by me when no one else did.

Why We Laugh (#Wattys2018) by CarpeDiemWrite
40 parts Complete Mature
"The laugh cracked loudly into the school's atrium, like a shot of a gun. A quick bullet. A deadly bullet the pierces through flesh and bone. I realized then... that a laugh was as lethal as a bullet." I thought bullying didn't exist. And if it did, I wasn't a bully. Except I was. We all were. Not because we beat kids up. Or we called people freaks. Or gave them swirlies. Because we never did that. It was because we laughed." For these three kids, a playful laugh cuts deeper than a fist ever would. And the worst part is...they laugh along. 1.Eliza hides behind the brightest smile and stuttered words. 2.Reece desires the perfect body and will destroy himself to do it. 3.Hunter is the bad boy with sick suicidal jokes, screwing both Prozac and girls. But it is more than just those three: 4.London sits in her wheelchair trying to be normal 5. Ashton needs to return to the surface of people and stop cowering in the digital world 6. Griffith hides his autistic emotions. The story is told by a girl who always laughs. Drama, love, pain, tears, laughter, depression, weaknesses. We all laugh. But what does our laugh truly effect? "Hands down this is the best book I've read on wattpad. I don't even know what to say. I mean... I just.... Wow." -Irxdeo This book deals with heavy topics such as depression, suicide, eating disorders, abuse, so read carefully. I want to say some of these characters and scenes in the beginning are based on real people and real events, but some are not. Hi, guys! Thanks for checking this story out. Remember be brave and kind.

"I think Mr.knights has anger issues." Just as those words slipped out from my mouth Mr.knights turned and in the blink of an eye, I was slammed against a wall with great force while taking both my hands above my head with just one hand and caging me fully into him.

His dark black eyes were staring right into mine as if they can see through me. I felt naked, I felt cold yet scared under his eyes. My chest rose up and down due to the decrease in my oxygen intake. "I think that .. was a mistake" I mumbled. It's not funny. my inner self warned. "Button your lips unless you want me to fuck that little smart mouth of yours," he said in a very lower and husky tone at the same time maintaining eye contact. I gulped. "I'm flattered that you admitted I'm smart," I said. He smirked. Not good villa. "Well, you asked for it" he hissed. What. I asked for what? Well, you shouldn't have run your mouth villa. My inner self spoke. Because he slammed His lips directly on mine as his body started pressing against me as tones of electricity passed from him entered my body. ---------------------------------------------------- Ashton Knights is a billionaire before the son of America. he's 27 and is adored by every American and he practically grew with media. he's mysterious, dark, possessive, mature, and rude but gentle yet beautiful.

"I... Am here to see you.", I told him as I placed my hands around his neck. I could feel my heart beat getting faster but I had to keep it strong if I had to survive this scenario. "What?", Brandon asked completely startled. I leaned in more closer to him. The only good thing in this entire scene was that he wasn't pushing me back due to my creepy behaviour. "Oh... Bran, I was missing you so much, I just... I needed to see you.", I said as I came up with lie. "Are you drunk?", Brandon asked as he leaned in closer trying to smell my mouth. Thank God Fel had given me her mint gum only moments before I went commando and came inside the locker room. "What?", I scoffed still standing extremely close to Brandon. "I just.... I was missing your gorgeous face.", I told another lie. But wait? His face is gorgeous so that isn't a lie. And was I not missing seeing him? I noticed Brandon who just had his eyes popped out of his socket with bewilderment at my words. I decided to peck him on the cheek before I storm out of the locker room. I leaned ahead to peck Brandon who moved his face in my direction and instead of his cheeks, our lips crashed. Brushing against each other, our lips touched. I could feel fireworks exploding inside my entire body. With my neurological system not responding anymore. ******* Depicting the hostility and vulnerability of a young woman to a society the story centers around a normal sophomore, Amy Cole, who had a normal life. Well way too normal for her situation. Amy's life was all good until one day, when her friends dumped her and blamed her for something she never even did. Her life takes a complete turn as her childhood crush, Brandon Mayhew, the Mayor's son, who once broke her heart, rushes back into her life through a series of events. With new friends, shifting thoughts, confused feelings and fighting anxiety and standing for the right thing. Amy makes her way to the top. Only to get at the top of everyone's hate list.

Laws of Motion by joeywrites3
12 parts Ongoing Mature
Newton's Three Laws of Motion: Every object in a state of uniform motion will remain in that state of motion unless an external force acts on it. Force equals mass times acceleration. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. In Aurelia's and Shane's case the Laws of Motion seem to be the acting sense of their relations. Aurelia Naya James, a girl who seems to be extremely put together and seemingly has her future plotted out by the very second. She's closed off, but incredibly warm and friendly. Aurelia is plus sized and doesn't know her worth. She has nothing, but works for everything. Shane Carson Brantley, a boy who seems to be perfect and seems to be extremely privileged. Bad boy is not in his vocabulary, however, a gentleman is in his vocabulary. He has everything, but hasn't worked for much. What happens when they are the speedy external forces to impact each others lives.... Will their oppositions equally react? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "This all makes fucking sense. What was this? Some kind of sick joke? Let's see who can get the big girl into bed first, right? Let's see who can open up the closed girl, right?" "Fuck... no!" he quickly retorted, following behind me. "Just listen!" I kept going, completely ignoring the fact that it was the first time he ever cursed in my presence. This was my first time threatening him, but I'd do it again. "Move before I put you on your ass!" I cursed at him, carelessly. "Just leave me alone!" I moved pass him, but he held onto my wrist tightly. "No! I'm not leaving until you hear me out!" he yelled, boring into me with those beautiful green eyes. They didn't lose their affect, I don't think it's possible. --------------------------------------------------- Trigger Warnings and Mature Content COMPLETED *Currently in the process of editing*
