"You were worried about me, Specs?" He smirked. "No, Tyler. I hoped that someone cut up your corpse and fed it to paranas. Obviously I was, you idiot! I'm a doctor. Worrying about people is kind of programmed into my system. It's a curse if you ask me," I surprised myself a lot more than I thought was possible with my answer. And what did he do? Laugh! He fucking laughed! Not full on rolling- on- the- floor laughter but a laugh nonetheless. "This isn't funny, Tyler." "It kind of is. Almost a month ago, I would've sworn that you hated me. Be careful, Specs," he squinted down at me, "or you might actually sound as if you like me." I rolled my eyes. "Don't flatter yourself. I was concerned. Don't confuse that with affection. It's two very, very different things." *** When you think that all is not lost in the world. That not all men are pricks and that not all sushi is bad. When you think that there is a light, no matter how dim, at the end of the tunnel. When you think that life isn't the ruthless bitch you've always thought it was... It turns around and bites you in the ass. When you think that the past will always and forever remain where it should be... It comes at you from every direction. Like a violent tsunami destroying everything...and everyone in it's path. Can you change what happened? I wish. Can you stop what's going to happen? God! I really hope so.

Don't Let Go ✔ (Editing) by _Little_Infinity__

Gosh, I'm so pathetic. I feel like I relate everything happening to me, back to Cody. It's probably because he and I were always together. But I really should stop. Cody left me. Why am I so hung up on him? I should move on, right? I should find another guy to love unconditionally... or maybe I shouldn't. Maybe I should just be a slut. Why should I even have any feelings for anyone? Wouldn't it just make complete sense to fuck around? That was no one could break my heart or hurt me. I'd be perfectly fine after, right? ~ After suddenly losing his boyfriend to soccer, Ethan finds that the perfect solution is to fuck around and do what he pleases. He no longer wants to cry over someone who obviously doesn't care about him. However, all of this quickly changes when he meets a patient at a hospital he volunteers, who goes by the name of Ashton - who happens to be straight and also dying. After their first encounter, they become perfect friends, and the obvious f-boy begins to develop feelings for the obvious straight boy. Can Ethan break down his 'straight' walls and have him as more than a friend all before it's too late? It's all up to fate, right? Highest Rank - #3 in #FreeThelgbtq

When you smile by Iris-hope

Smiles, to me, are like a foreign language I struggle to speak, and you're the patient tutor trying to teach me the nuances. *** And then, there he was, sitting at a corner table, his emerald eyes shimmering with an enigmatic depth, as if they were vessels of untold stories. His smile, warm and inviting, stretched across his face, igniting a spark within my chest, causing my heart to momentarily stumble in its rhythm. He was a magnetic force, and I felt drawn to him, helpless in my attraction, like a moth entranced by a mesmerizing flame. But I was hidden in the shadows, unable to fight my own fears. What if he turned out to be just like them? What if he was another nightmare waiting to happen? I wanted so badly to approach him, to be near him, to feel that gentle touch I longed for, but my fear held me back. It was as if an invisible chain tied me to my feet, making it impossible to move forward. I couldn't help, I was slowly falling for him, despite my best efforts. But I couldn't allow myself to love someone. Love? It felt like a distant star in a pitch-black sky, beautiful yet impossibly out of reach. I wished I could just let go, to allow myself the chance to be happy, but some scars run too deep to be healed by one smile, right?

10/10 by mrchiipchrome

When you signed for Harvard you weren't expecting this, not the late nights up studying, not the party animal friends, and certainly not the feelings. Before everything had been bleak, a constant cycle of training until you were practically dead, but college seemed to put the colour back into your world, or maybe it was her. The girl to which you owed everything. Between way too much school work, international duty, intense pressure from the media, constant training and a very attractive 'friend', how will you survive college, the 'best years of your life'? Are you willing to put your friendship on the line for a chance at love or are you going to miss out on the only thing you've ever wanted to protect yourself from the possibility of getting hurt?

Taunt by meepsahir

"Can we stop feeling guilty, Amelia? Guilty for all the things that weren't our fault." "We can Leo. Maybe someday." "That day isn't far off Amelia. I'll make sure of it." ___________________________________ There is a lot to think about when you find out your best friend has been raped and murdered. There is even more to think about when you're the last person she saw the night she died. But that's not what caused me to black out in the middle of a rocking party scene, surrounded by all the people I had known all my life. It was when I saw who had killed her. Hilarious, charming, the guy with the perfect quiff, and star quarter-back of the football team. He was loved by everyone. He was the guy you couldn't stay away from. Levi Harrison. My brother. ____________________________ #1 for General Fiction in The Grace Awards 2019 #1 College Romance 11/19 #3 Bullyingawareness 04/20 #2 Assault 06/20 • Started: August 2018 Ended: - January 2020 (Unedited) • WARNING: this book contains a mature theme, not suitable for all audiences.
