"It was then that I heard it. The small, quiet, click. I couldn't turn my head fast enough. When I finally saw her, she had the gun to her head. "I'm sorry," she mouthed. And then the whole forest went silent when the sound of her life being taken echoed off the cherry trees."

But when Luke Stein, Anne's long-time boyfriend, is killed she is consumed by a depression that even her best friend can't save her from, and eventually commits suicide. Experience Lexi and Anne's friendship and her relationship with Luke in "The Cherry Trees".

NOTICE: Before the Morning is currently undergoing revisions! A sensitivity reader (someone who goes through your manuscript and assesses representations in your work) identified a number of issues surrounding the Filipino representation in BTM. I'm rewriting with the goal of creating a more authentic and respectful story. I'm sorry for the pain I caused by failing to include accurate Filipino culture and in having written from Nora's point of view.
Phoenix in the Woods by yinmanlau
10 parts Ongoing
In the quiet town of Havenbrook, Oregon, two teenagers from vastly different worlds find solace in secrets they cannot share with anyone else. Lila Marquez, a quiet Latin American artist, channels her struggles with family expectations and her mother's abandonment into illegal phoenix murals painted on abandoned barns. Eliot Reed, a Black new student from Chicago, hides his grief over his father's death in poetry, fearing that in this small town, his athletic talent will become his only defining trait. Their connection ignites the moment Eliot stumbles upon Lila's secret artwork in the woods. Bonding over art and poetry at the local café, they begin a tentative relationship-only to face immediate challenges: Lila's abuela opposes her dating someone from a different cultural background, Eliot encounters subtle discrimination in the town, and both face pressure from their respective peer groups. As their relationship deepens, they confront a town crisis that threatens the things each holds dear: art for Lila, and track for Eliot. When a tornado devastates Havenbrook, Eliot's act of bravery finally bridges the cultural gap with Lila's family, proving that overcoming differences does not require erasing them. Phoenix in the Woods is a touching story of the courage to love across cultural divides and the healing power of art. It follows two teens as they learn that rising from adversity-like the phoenix Lila paints-requires embracing both their roots and their wings.
