Five things. Fate stole five things from Elena so mercilessly that she forgot if happiness even exists.
Her voice.
Her parents.
Her hometown.
Her innocence.
And Connor Woods.
But fate had also destined her to come back to her hometown, and perhaps, give her all the happiness back.
But life is not all rainbows and sunshines, and happiness costs sacrifices.
Now as mournful and broken as her life has been, Elena has to pick all the pieces up and fit them back together. But will she mend everything successfully, or will all of it fall back shattered?
A tale to mix sweet, cliché love with the sour, colourless reality. A story where we learn to fight misery bestowed by fate, and win back the all that we rightfully deserve.

Facade Of Perfectionism
'Love is like a child, That longs for everything it can come by' -William Shakespeare _______________________________________________________ Maya Matthews is the description of perfection, or as she has been addressed. She excels in every field she steps her foot into, be it from her perfect grades to being the best daughter a parent could ask for, you name it. Her tenderness is what attracts every guy's attention. She seems to have everything she could ask for. What could possibly be wrong with her near to perfect life? Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth. Maya has her demons that she desperately attempts to hide from the world that not a single soul knows about. Shawn Daniels is the perfect storm and the missing puzzle in Maya's life. He is the polar opposite of Maya. Smart, confident, and witty. He's often misunderstood for a bad boy, who has quite a handful of girls swooning over him. He's a carefree soul. He is the yin to her yang. What happens when they cross paths and Shawn unleashes Maya's dark secrets? Will he succeed in his mission to pull Maya out of her past, and show what life has to offer? But life is certainly not a bed of roses and nothing comes as easy. _______________________________________________________ They say love can overcome anything. You never exactly know when it will strike and turn your life upside down.

Saying Goodbye
Seventeen-year-old Elena knows she's running out of time. With a brain tumor stealing her strength and her future, her parents move her to a quiet farmhouse in the woods, hoping for peace in her final months. But Elena doesn't expect the house to hold a secret-one that will change everything. In the attic, among boxes of forgotten records and dust, Elena discovers Ethan: a boy her age, with messy blonde hair, a crooked smile, and eyes that see right through her. Ethan is a ghost, bound to the house where his own life ended years ago. At first, Elena wonders if he's only a hallucination-a cruel trick of her dying brain. But Ethan is real, as real as the warmth of his hand on hers, the sound of his laughter, and the way her heart stirs when he looks at her. As her body weakens, Elena finds herself spending her days with Ethan, hiding from her grieving parents to linger in the attic with the boy who makes her feel alive again. Together, they share music, laughter, secrets, and the fragile beauty of a love that shouldn't exist. But time is different now. Elena's life as she knew it is gone, and what waits ahead is uncertain. As she slips further from the world she once belonged to, she begins to accept that her journey isn't ending-it's changing. And maybe, just maybe, she and Ethan aren't as lost as they thought.Complete

Daisies for Delilah
C O M P L E T E D Previously called: They Met On A Sunday ☙❦❧ "Beautiful," he mumbled to himself as he studied the way her hair fell down her shoulders. How her cheekbones sat. How her eyelashes brushed her brow bone. Everything about her. "Hmm?" she sounded out. She heard what he said, but refused to believe he was saying it about her. She was probably hallucinating. She shook her head to try and clear her mind. He watched her in amusement. "Um sorry," she mumbled, "I think I'm hearing things." She laughed awkwardly, letting her eyes stray from his face and look at anything else she could possibly look at. "No you weren't," he corrected her. "You heard right." She lifted her head in surprise and he was already smirking. The glint in his eyes told her that he wasn't lying either. Her heart swelled and she bit her lip instinctively. He groaned. "Fuck Delilah don't do that," his eyes darkened as he admired her plump lips, waiting for the moment he could kiss them. "For my sake." ☙❦❧ A story about a girl who thought she loved a boy; a story about a boy the girl didn't love. ☙❦❧ #1 in the Bouquet Bunch Short Story. Cover by @xtruebeautyx Copyright ©Complete
