My mom used to tell me that lighthouses were like beacons of hope. We would travel every summer up the east coast to Maine and stop at all the lighthouses we could find. My mom went missing with my dad at the start of my senior year and since then things have gone down hill. I have to find them but I have no idea where to start. It's the summer after my senior year and while I have plans for the future, I still feel lost and without purpose. I guess you could say I need my own lighthouse right about now. Come fall, I'll be a freshman at Brown but until then I have the summer to figure out who I am and how my life got to where it is.  But with a new mysterious guy, and two amazing best friends who've planned a summer full of adventure, maybe my chances aren't all that bad.All Rights Reserved

FIREFLIES - Eyeless Jack X Reader by My-Decay

Your parents always told you that Fireflies were magic. Even when you grew older and realized they were just neat little bugs, you couldn't help the feeling of enchantment you'd feel whenever you saw one. You decided to take your best friend and her boyfriend on a little camping trip, in hopes of seeing the Fireflies at the time of year when they're most active. You arrived a day early, so you spent that time doing the typical camping things; cooking s'mores over the fire, listening to music on her Bluetooth speaker, telling scary stories in the dark. It was a lot of fun. Eventually, the night drew on and your companions grew weary. Everyone called it a night and headed to bed, yourself included. The next morning, without meaning to, you awoke before the sun and found yourself unable to fall back asleep. So, you took a little walk to ease the feeling of restlessness. However, you didn't plan on seeing something unspeakable while you were out. What you witnessed that morning will change your life forever.

I struggled to cope with the loss of my old life and the secrets Travis kept from me.

Altered by LuellaOpal

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.

how to catch feelings by imacharacter98

Nat returns to campus for her senior year of college. Something's in the air - is it anxiety? Is it pot fumes drifting out of someone's dorm window? Is it Old Town Road, dancing on the breeze? Ope, nope, it's just hope (haha) that maybe, just maybe, a certain friendship with a certain someone might turn into something more. *** YA romcom/murder mystery because why not? Marked mature for language and mention of suicide. *** Excuse the cringey description, I don't usually write this kind of YA.

The Unholy Alliance by AprilBaby239

Imagine a perfectly imperfect world where everything is just as it appears. It's obviously not perfect but there is a sense of normality to it that is comforting. A year and a half ago you lost your father which was more like a best friend than a parent. Fortunately or maybe unfortunately, a year later your mother finds your stepfather and they get married. You have two loyal friends that are your ride or die that you do virtually everything with. You also have a boyfriend who is way out of your league but out of some miracle decided to date you. Now imagine everything changes and suddenly your shoved into a world of deception, lies, and unspeakable evil. Every day leaves you wondering if your going to make it to tomorrow. This is the world our main character, Haley Dobbins, now lives in after three boys walked into her school and her life changed forever. It was clear from the start that there was something different about them, and it wasn't just the fact that they were more attractive than everybody else. It was almost as if their entire presence screamed danger. If only she had listened to her instincts and not gotten involved with them, she could have avoided this. However what she didn't know was that these boys were in fact the spawn of the devil himself and that the moment they walked through those doors their destinies would be forever entertwined whether she liked it or not. They always say that the beautiful ones are the most dangerous. They fool you with their looks and stab you in the back. The things left to wonder about are, will Haley make it out alive? Is she going to embrace her destiny or fight it? Will there be an adventure? And most importantly will she fall in love with one of the three boys or better yet all of them? All these questions can be answered and what better way to do so then through a story. So curl up next to a fire place with a blanket, hot chocolate, and book in hand because things are about to get interesting.

Secret Treasures by CassandyAnnabell

I always thought Nanna's stories were just tall tales, that is until I got back from uni. I've been away for two years. Away from my home, my family, my friends. I know being away has changed me, I guess going on this adventure with my friends will make me realise just how much we have all changed. I'm just worried it could be the beginning of the end. Will this adventure with my friends bring us closer or tear us apart? In the end we will all find some sort of Secret Treasure.

Secret Santa ✔️ by idielopez

"You had no right to do that," I snap, trying my best to out walk him. His chuckle was loud behind me and his hand griped on my forearm, stopping me. Something about his warmth gave me chills all over my body. Something I don't think I ever wanted in the first place. Especially from him and especially now. "Yes I did, and I still do." His hard grip around my arm loosened, and snaked up to lock his fingers through my hair. Oh Momma, what is happening? Being this close to him has been happening way too often for normal. Still, I couldn't break away from this close contact, I was frozen, shocked. "What makes you think that?" My question hit him with humor, and instead of fully responding, he leans his face closer to mine. The smirk on his face stayed once he noticed the affect he had on me. "Because," he whispers out pressing our bodies together. "I'm your Secret Santa," he licks his lips as if he's hungry, then continues, "I can give you anything I want to give you." His free arm wraps around my waist, and he lifts me up during the action before pressing our lips together. The main character is Kimberly. She's an accident prone person who wants nothing but to enjoy her winter. Her friends want the best for her after a terrible break up they witnessed. Every year they all hold the traditional Secret Santa. Somebody from the group believes that they are what Kimberly needs. This is about Kimberly and her crazy winter story about her not so Secret Santa.

The Best Kind of Betrayal by scout245

It's the first day of June's senior year and everything is already going wrong. Her first boyfriend and supposedly love of her life dumps her for someone else, her heart is broken and feels like it won't ever heal again and her best friend makes her join the most unnecessary club on earth to help her find new friends she most definitely does not need. Still. New chances are for new beginnings, right? Instead of falling into a deep dark pit of self pity (however tempting that may sound), all of this betrayal ends up leading her to the best friends she's ever had and the most exciting school year of her life. Oh - and a whole new fake boyfriend, to get some revenge on that idiot who dumped her. And who knows. Maybe even more.
