It's the last year of high school. Everything's in full swing for academic awards, prom, and graduation. Everyone knows their place. Everyone fits in their neat little boxes.  

Everyone except for Jess Smith. 

Join Jess as she embarks on a journey of self-discovery. In 1999, asexuality isn't widely known--even to her--or accepted as an orientation. With the help of Ace of Spades, she explores what asexuality means through her blog and conversations with family and friends. 

Can she embrace her true self, or will she keep wearing the mask of celibacy?

"Why do you always avoid my questions?" "I'm not, it's just that there's nothing to say. Who would ever want to date someone they can't even talk to? It's not rocket science. My eyes are weird, and people get tired of me eventually. There's your one-page essay. Now please don't snow me to death .-." "What? All that you just said is a lie. And I should snow you to death for even saying that! I would definitely date you."

Delicate Affection by Naijasugaplum

Can a boy and a girl ever be best friends without having any secret romantic feelings towards each other? Bryan Ugwuoke and Jessy Black are childhood best friends who were secretly in love with each other. What happens when a false article about them making out almost destroys their friendship? Will they finally spill their secret love for each other, or will temptation spill it for them? * * * * * Jessy was enjoying the fact that Bryan couldn't seem to remove his eyes from her cleavage, and she smiled at that. If this was what they called seduction, she was up for it this night. It was as if seeing Bryan again and sitting too close to him while he fed his eyes, gave her confidence, that he maybe, just maybe liked her as a guy liked a girl. But did he? "You like what you see?" She asked him trying so hard to sound seductive. "Huh?" Bryan asked confused, trying to divert his eyes away from his best friend's bosom, but his eyes didn't seem to obey. "You like what you see?" She asked again, this time scooting closer to him. It was as if the drink gave her the confidence that she needed. "Ummmm... Would it be weird if I said yes?" He asked, "I shouldn't like seeing my best friend's bosom, I shouldn't." He muttered to himself. "But you like it, huh?" She didn't know if it was the alcohol acting against her sober self, but she found herself placing her lips on his. His lips were so soft, and succulent and enticing, she thought, then she stopped, and looked at him, waiting for him to say something, anything to avoid feeling embarrassed for kissing her best friend of nine years! * Follow up on the rollercoaster romance story of Bryan and Jessy and how they were able to overcome the challenges the articles brought to them.

Nao Summers hates drama, but life becomes full of it when he's paired with the school delinquent on a film project.

To crown the whole disaster, Nao finds himself a target of the vengeful football team, who can and will destroy him if he lets down his guard. None of this would be too difficult if Nao knew how to deal with conflict. The issue is, of course, that he doesn't. ❋❋❋ Warnings: Mentions of sex, coercion, violence, swearing, depictions of mental illness: anxiety, panic disorder. ❋ Update schedule: Mondays & Fridays. ❋ Cover by the wonderful @solerdani

Something that can catch her mind, while Dawn catches her heart. As their lives take them both in very different directions, Tina and Dawn come into contact over and over again as the years pass by.

WATTYS 2023 SHORTLIST | WATTYS 2023 FANS CHOICE AWARDS NOMINEE Initially looking for nothing more than a feelings-free summer fling before college, reckless Harris McCammon and anxious Seb Krause might have stumbled into more than they bargained for. --------------------------------- When a graduation party takes a risky turn, Harrison McCammon finds himself in the passenger seat of Sebastian Krause's truck. When the two virtual strangers agree to begin a friends with benefits kind of situation, neither expect anything more than maybe a fun situationship before they leave for college. But as their casual entanglement turns into something slightly more, the two of them are forced to push down their real thoughts on this non-relationship. Add in sketchy ex-boyfriends, concerned parents, and a small dash of existential dread, there's no such thing as no strings attached. TW: underaged substance abuse; mentions of/attempted SA; (fade to black/non-explicit) sex; homophobic figures/abandonment; hospitalisation ^that sounds like a lot, wow, i'm sorry, it's ... it's mainly fluff ---ONC Ambassadors Round 2 Pick, 2023---

Blame The Weeds (gxg) by immoralLaurel

I reached for her face, guided her down to kiss me. We were slow. I absorbed every detail - the cut of her cheeks, the trio of larger freckles near her chin, the fair sheets of lashes like spun gold around her green eyes. I did everything I could to remember it all. At that moment, we had all the time in the world. ** An angry, grieving senior navigates a blended family and finds hope in first love. Kareena hates everything and Freya is lonely. Luke can't sleep and Rue's in love. Growing up is a fight, and they might not make it. ** Wattpad Featured Editor's Pick 2023 WATTYS 2022 SHORTLIST Copyright © 2018. All Rights Reserved immoralLaurel
