Liz grew up in a house that looked picture perfect. A Mother, Father and younger sister. Looks are deceiving.
Sir, her father, is an alcoholic and drug abuser. When he's sober, he's the greatest guy to be around. When drunk, he's someone to avoid.
Liz learned at a young age it was better to be seen and not heard. When Sir got drunk, Liz stayed in her room and struggled to be quiet so she didn't draw attention to herself. She began using her imagination at a young age to self soothe. Liz had a full family, who were loving and supporting in her imaginary world.
As she got older, her imaginary world changed. Gone were the fantastical beasts from her childhood, sand replaced with her imaginary perfect family, perfect boyfriend, perfect everything. When things got tough, Liz escaped reality.
Now, as an adult, wife and mother, when tragedy strikes she finally needs to learn to live fully in the real world. Can she give up her perfect world?

She's Charming [COMPLETE]
She's always rolled her eyes at ball gowns and tiaras. He's memorized every Disney princess line by heart. Elizabeth has always loved Disney-but not the princesses. To her, they've always felt more like a marketing ploy to sell more toys than meaningful role models. But during her annual trip to Disneyland, she meets Will, a charming, hopeless romantic who sees the princesses as symbols of strength, resilience, and empowerment. As their connection deepens, Will starts giving Elizabeth small charms on each of their dates-each one inspired by a different quality he sees in her, drawn from the very characters he admires most and she's quick to dismiss. What begins as a clash of perspectives slowly becomes something more, and Elizabeth starts to wonder if the stories she once wrote off might hold more truth-and maybe even love-than she ever imagined.Complete

Fragile..?
(Creepypasta X FemReader) Some say I'm too sensitive but truth is...I just feel too much. Every word. Every action. Every energy. Everything just goes straight to my heart. My life was never really a perfect life but it was at least decent. But its always quite possible things will turn out far better than they appear so I always look forward to tomorrow. But recently things have been horrible and there's this feeling in the pit of my stomach that I feel I should listen to. Who knew listening to a gut feeling would've given me something so powerful... ~~~~~~~~~ Author's personal favorite part of the book: "Man, do you know how fast angels are? Like, daaaaaamn! Can you believe I am feeling the tiniest bit exhausted? WOW!" ~~~~~~~~~ The original photo of the cover belongs to SunProjects, credit goes to them for the artwork! I just edited it to make the cover, all photos aren't mine unless said otherwise. Thank you! First published: September 18, 2021 Yea this is an X Reader, yea this is a creepypasta story- what of it? Take note, take this into careful consideration! The Contents within this story will disturb you. I am basing the killers as real life criminals, criminals who do not care what age you are to hook up with, criminals who don't care about your personal boundaries, who won't ask for permission or be your usual fictional Creepypasta characters. But I wont be that fucking rude, I'm mixing them with fiction and reality. More in Ch1. ╮(─▽─)╭Complete
