Computer screens can't hide everything 

We are all different. It's as simple as that, so what gives some people the right to judge others for the reasons that they are different. Why is it that, because of these people, we hide ourselves, we have secrets we never want anyone to know, just so that we can be accepted. And those of us, who would truly accept us for who we are, we judge in return for they are not like the people we want hang out with, they are not popular, they are not the social construct of normal, they don't live up to societies standard of normal or beautiful or sexy or attractive or acceptable. They are weird and unusual and different ... unique. So why, do we stay on the sidelines, disguising who we are?

--------------------------

Three people, from different worlds in society, who take to social media to show there true colours, meet. Luke Hannah. Mark Warren. Reign Iler. Neither realise that the people thy ignore during the day are the people they turn to at night for support, to escape from the world ... who they trust. Online, social constructs don't exist, maybe they can apply that to real life, or will their secrets catch up to them?

★★★ "Tell me what you want," he murmured, his words sending a shiver down my spine. "I want you," I replied, my voice filled with longing. "I want you to fuck me." He chuckled, his eyes meeting mine with a heated gaze that made my heart race. "Come again, baby?" he teased. As his thumb brushed over my bottom lip, parting them slightly, I softened my gaze, giving him a look that I knew would drive him wild. "Fuck me," I said, my voice more commanding this time, the urgency pulsing through every word. "God," he breathed, his voice slightly higher as he hid his face in the crook of my neck, his kisses growing more intense with each passing moment. ★★★ 𝐀𝐕𝐀 ( 𝐍𝐎𝐇 𝐉𝐈𝐇𝐘𝐄) - After her fallout with her best friend, it seemed like her life had taken a turn for the worse. Despite her successful career as a model and background dancer for many successful artists, she was still unhappy. Not only was she dealing life without her best friend by her side, but she was also struggling to cope with a recent and unexplained break-up, which made it difficult for her to move forward. Although her financial situation improved, her mental state definitely went downhill. Until...? 𝐊𝐘𝐀𝐍 -From dancer to fighter. Not only did he have to deal with the love of his life suddenly disappearing to another city, he also threw away his dancing career after falling for a scam involving his whole family. His stubborn mother offered no help, and although he hated to relive his past, he saw no other choice but to return to dancing. The stress was unbearable. Then, when he saw his best friend again, looking down at him with disgust and disappointment - thanks to Alex calling her at the wrong time - he came up with a deal that made him want to punch himself. A deal that not only served to relieve his and her stress but also maybe get the love of his life back. Or perhaps she had always been there? - started: feb 28th 2024 - ended:

With a bit of convincing - and the worst beating she'd ever received - Jessie agrees to move into an apartment with Kolleen. But not long after, Jessie is scared the worst of her nightmares will soon become a reality. Josh goes missing, and suddenly Jessie would swear she's being followed. One night changes everything, and one person soon changes Jessie's outlook. A responding officer from that fateful night begins to seek her out, at first claiming it's part of his job.

What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet.

-Let's get this straight. From a dead end job to a useless crazy ex boyfriend- my happiness is with my best friend yet the fear of our relationship ending completely scares me and id rather fake it and be in fear than find out and never be happy. It sucks, seeing him everyday and knowing what i feel for him and how deep those feelings go is painful...- But when he comes around everything changes for the best and for the worst. As a whole they are deeply loved and equally as hated by others but the love from one another is undeniable, if only she wasnt so selfish with her choices and words- -Lying, cheating, sneaking, crying- many acts and emotions come from within when there's someone you love unaware of that love.. Possibly growing to love someone else right before your eyes..Its gut wrenching, i know because ive fucked up. Its worse when you're aware of the harm you cause yourself and others but dont care how the outcome turns out to be. Why would it matter how it effects you if youre used to pain and people leaving? it wouldnt. All because you take comfort in your own mind and mental illness, once you realize you have freewill it may become a bad thing if youre careless.- - Gabriella White.
