I guess you could say im not your typical 15 year old. I mean right now im sitting in a hospital bed connected to more wires than I can count.
But as far from normal my life is, its still worth living, even when I feel otherwise.
And what always brings me back from my worst is the hope of being normal again.
"Emmie, Emmie" I jump and shake my head from my daze. I have a tendency to drift off into space sometimes.
Let me know if I should continue this book!!!

Someone Willing to Stay
"Damn it, Mason, you can't fix me. I'm not some used car that needs an oil change." I'm standing at the edge of my driveway. If I take one step towards that house, then I go back to my life. The life I've had since Mason left. Since he abandoned me. If I turn around. If I take one second to look into his eyes. I don't think I'll be able to resist throwing myself in his arms. "I'm shattered, Mason. Like a dusty vase that's been ignored for too long." "You know the best thing about broken vases, Mel? You just need three things to make them whole." I decide to go along with his speech. "Faith, trust, and pixie dust?" I muse. "Tape, glue, and someone willing to fix it. And I'm right here, Mel."Complete
I'm Not Crazy
We are not the broken clichés you want us to be anymore. We have transcended beyond the "Good Girl ~ Bad Boy" boxes they tried to put us in. We are so far beyond all that now, that we are finally free of all those stereotypes. The story of us is not the usual cliche "good girl" meets "bad boy" that instantly fall in love. Oh, and after a few almost funny mishaps everything works out perfectly story. Or the other one where the brooding bad boy with a tragic past gets a second chance to become a happy, well-adjusted person again. All thanks to the love of an awesomely perfect popularity princess with a pure heart of gold. Who sees "something special" inside him, that no one else can see ...and sets him on a straight path. All that once in a lifetime fairy dust love, that only exists for perfect pretty popularity princesses in the happily ever after. No, this is the other kind of love story ...the messy kind, that messes peoples lives up irrevocably, for all time. The real kind of love story, that comes hand in hand with hopes and fears, and all that real hurt that burns at your heart. So while our Crazy love might not be as bright and shiny as that fairy dust love is ...our love will kick your loves ass any day of the week, and twice on Sunday. Because our love knows the secret truth about itself. That it's not about how perfectly you fall in love, it's how you get the back up after love kicks your ass sideways, and you come back looking for more. Because our love is that Crazy kind of love, that is so forever you have to fight for it 'till the bitter end ...or die trying. The kind of love that comes with beer, pizza, football and a hell of a lot of laughs ...but mostly at everyone else's expense. ~First Place Chicklit - 2017 Blue Rose Award~ ~ Second Place for Teen Fiction - The Star Blazer Awards 2018~ ~ Honorable Mention for Best Plot - 2017 Royalty Awards ~Complete
Dorkily Ever After
It's clearly hard to fall in love with someone when you don't know you're already falling. It's harder to fall in love with someone whom you know wouldn't take the chance of falling in love with you back. And it's the hardest to just keep the feeling away, to distance yourself to that certain person you're in love with. ~~*~~ No matter who you are, where you're from and how fucking hot you are... Confessing to that someone you really like would be the hardest. CAUTION: This story slightly includes butt touching, perverting, and hot make outs. Read at your own risk. When their worlds -- the flawed but still perfect world-- collides, memories will be created, Memories will be reminisced and most of all, Memories will be lived.

This novel was literally written in 4 months when I was at the age of 14 trying to overcome my obsession with the fault in our stars (yes, I used to read the book at a bare minimum of 3 times per week, if not once daily). I decided to write my own version of it and as you can see, it turned out like this. If you choose to read it and find it silly that is because it's written by a 14-year old. So, please don't write hate comments or anything. Thank you all, have a nice time reading it!Complete![Her Road To Go [UNEDITED]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/237536137-256-k911957.jpg)
