“She looks nice today - I mean, she looks nice everyday, but today she looks like sunshine. Her hair is in two pinwheel buns and she’s wearing a yellow sundress printed with sunflowers. Her white boots lace up half her calf and numerous bracelets obscure her wrist. Her cheeks are flushed, but it may just be the weather; unusually hot for late April.”
“His hair reflects in the light, almost as if its dark shade is no match for the sun. He turns slowly, hand gripped around his drink, eyes flashing in delight as he notices me. His walk is purposeful; it’s like he wants to get to me as quickly as possible without seeming desperate. Everything he does around me is careful and purposeful and at that point I know there is nothing he wouldn’t do for me.”
When Leonie discovers her love for writing at age sixteen, she turns to her best-friend Jude. Jude, who dreams of being successful, Jude, who is gorgeously brilliant at everything he does, Jude, who thinks of her as Just A Friend. Together they begin their novel: Leonie writing her scenes in her Grandmother’s house in Southern France, and Jude in the attic of his parent’s house.
As they put more and more emotion into their book, true feelings of resentment and passion filter through and Leonie and Jude begin to see their relationship falling apart as faulted intentions and misunderstandings become clear.

Unforgiven Dreams ✔️
[COMPLETED : 5|09|2016 and slowly editing ] He snapped his fingers and a red flame flourished into existence. "How did you-" "I'm a professional." He smirked, clearly enjoying this. If I got a penny for everytime I rolled my eyes at him, I would probably be a billionaire. In a limousine. With a hot wife. And a hotter girl to cheat on her with. And that too I'm straight. He flexed his palms and the flame disappeared. "With practice, even you can control your Blue Matter." I didn't say anything, just nodded. "This Blue Matter is stronger than Red Matter. It can destroy beings. Be careful with it." "Uh, so I am a DreamMaire?"

Loveless
Love never made sense, but it never had to either. Toby would do anything to get rid of his entirely embarrassing crush, but he isn't sure how. Attempting to find new crushes never works, especially when his best friend can see right through him. ><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>< I'd like to preface this by stating that there will be parts that some may find triggering. There will be times where characters talk about mental health, lgbtq+ issues, and eating disorders. I'll begin each chapter with a trigger warning if need be, as well as marking the parts that may be triggering so they can be easily skipped. Take care of yourself <3 ><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><Complete

Almost Got Away With It (COMPLETED)
Her hands shook violently as she dialed the 7 digits to call her big brother. Her heart was beating so loud, and fast in her mind. She was shaking nervously as she put the phone to her ear. She did a silent prayer hoping he would pick up. She was lucky he even picked up at 2 in the morning. "Hello?" his deep voice flowed through the phone. "Kianna?" he asked a little worried. "I-I killed him." she forced out as she cried out loud. "I killed him, Leon. I-I d-didn't mean t-to!" she cried louder. That night changed her life forever. Written when I was 16... so... ⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️: Might trigger some. If you don't like it please STOP READING!!!! DAMN!!!

Altered
Have you ever met someone who alters the course of your life? For good or for bad, they've come in, given and taken, and then- BOOM! Your life was never the same. There's always a change, an altering of reality. When you meet those people, the reality that you've known your whole life is suddenly gone and a new one has taken its place. When those moments happen, there's no going back. You can try to return to the way things were but nothing, and I mean nothing, can take you back to exactly how it was. That's what happened to us. I think that's why we're still trying so desperately to get back to some sort of normalcy. Four years later and we're still on the ground, crawling, in search of the happiness that was lost that June. Summers will never be the same. Midnight walks through my neighborhood will never be the same. Field parties with bonfires and loud music will never be the same. I still don't know why you left and what lead you to the decision you made. What I do know is that we're here. We're alive and we're pushing forward to the future. A future that you're not a part of. But in some ways, I'm glad you're not a part of it. I just wish it wasn't like this. *** TRIGGER WARNING*** SA, abuse, suicide, substance abuse, and mental illness. This is a complete story that is much like life; fast, full of surprises, and not always how we want it to be. This has been a project of mine for over three years. It was self-published on Amazon, but after some issues in publication, I decided to just upload it on here. I hope you fall in love with these characters like I have. The friends in this story are trying to make names for themselves, figure out who they are, who they can trust, how to love, and how to separate themselves from a restrictive community. As in any coming of age story, they will experience growing pains... but will they survive them before its too late? PLEASE READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS.Complete
