Have you ever had a friend or best friend that you loved as more than a friend? If so, I'm sure you might be able to relate to this story. This is not a personal story but more a made up one that randomly came to mind when I thought about writing a story that I might show my friends and have them tell me what they thought of it. I hope you enjoy and please leave comments on the book about if a part made you feel any emotion or anything you maybe related to it <3
Little bit of swearing is involved.

Astrid
Carter slowly walked towards me, butterflies swarming in my stomach, filling every inch of me. "Assi." he grabbed my wrists, and made me look at him. "Who was that song about?" "You know who." "Was it... about me?" "What would you say if it was?" I cocked my head to the side, our eyes staying connected with each other. "I wouldn't say." he moved closer to me, towering over by the slightest bit as his breath surrounded my every nerve. He leant down, took a sharp breath and connected our lips. - Astrid was a beautiful girl, who had lost her sense of who she was and where she belonged. She went through something traumatic at only 14, but no one noticed. She moved to Roseville for a fresh start with her best friend Kaitlyn by her side. But Carter notices.

Just A Friend
"Do you know how hard it is for me knowing that you're with someone else?" Tyler asked, staring at me intensely. "You think this is easy for me?" I asked, trying to hold back my tears. "I didn't say it was -" he began, but I cut him off. "It's not. I have to go around hating myself. Hating myself for thinking about you. Hating myself for wanting you. I just want to stop feeling this way." I stepped closer to him as my voice shook with every word. "I want to forget about you, but I just--." The rest of my sentence was cut short as Tyler took the final step, closing the gap between us and brought his lips to mine. ~~~~~~~~ Tyler is back from college to find out that the girl who once held his heart has a new boyfriend.

Once Innocent (What Can Love Do)
**Innocents**. What a meaningful word, don't you think? We all have or had our innocence. But what is considered "our" innocence or "your" innocence? The word "innocent" can signify being found not guilty, maintaining your sanity, or simply appearing innocent. There is so much meaning packed into such a small word. Ni'Ari was once innocent. Ni'Ari loved Alanis, but they could never see eye to eye. One day, Alanis decided it was time to call it quits, and so their connection faded away. Yet, Ni loved her-she always did. Ni loved how she could be herself around Alanis and how Alanis made her feel. But how? Ni had never actually met her. She couldn't grasp why she was so attached to Alanis. What if Alanis was someone completely different? What if she wasn't exactly who she claimed to be? It's that little "what if," that speck of faith, that kept Ni hanging on. However, Ni felt there was someone else out there. No matter how hard she tried to focus on Alanis, she sensed another soul waiting for her. But why? What purpose does that person serve? Could that soul be the one Ni had been searching for-the one to show her what real love is? The one to teach her what acceptance feels like? So many questions, yet few answers. Is love really worth it? Why does Ni need it so desperately? What is it that she believes love can do? Eventually, we will find out; but will what they have last? • Will their connection be worth it? They've known each other for years but have never met. • Will things change? • What will happen? • The real question is: Is Alanis the one, or is she just a distraction from who Ni truly needs? • Ni dreams, but what are her dreams about? Perhaps we should be asking about whom. The life of Ni-a thrilling life at that. (This book is very explicit, so please be advised.) ©All Rights Reserved
