'When you're sixteen, everything is a soap opera.'

Summer is finally over. The town of Athea can once again return to its boring schedule. That is, until an accident. An accident that changes everyone. 

Mostly, it changes sixteen-year-old Aaron Adler. His life is torn apart when his father, the only man in his life who's ever been there for him, is tragically killed in that accident. And on the night he receives the news, Aaron makes a wish. A wish his father wasn't dead. A wish the world was like those soap operas his friend, Eleanor, liked. And to his absolute shock, his wish is granted. 

As Aaron deals with the consequences of his actions, a serial killer is loose and wreaking havoc in Athea. And Aaron and his friends have found themselves caught up in the murders. 

With no one else seeming to care about the murders, it's fallen to Aaron and his friends to catch the killer and undo the wish but at what cost?All Rights Reserved

He keeps finding me by Lorelai1412

It all began with a message on his 16th birthday, 'Today in one year, you will die.' Felix didn't think much about it, after all his father was a well-known underground boss in this area. Unbothered, he pocketed his phone, going about his normal day, only that nothing was normal. His mother, whom he hadn't seen for six years, met him only to interrogate him. Felix never condoned what his father did for a living, much less that he was always dragged into it. He collected evidence to send his father to jail and to prove to his mother that he wasn't anything like his father. When did it all go wrong? When he tried to turn in the evidence? Felix couldn't remember the day after that day he got a message, only one thing seemed prominent. Ice-blue eyes. He saw his mother on the street in front of him, she said something in tears, "Don't worry, the afterlife will give you what you deserve," before she shot him. Why did she- It was a question he couldn't ask as he was soon greeted by someone or rather something..

Polysomething by David_Nora

This is my first, unpublished novel. It was sad sitting in the outer-reaches of desktop space, so I wanted to give it some attention. I hope that someone out there enjoys it and even-dare I say-chuckles a few times. Here's a brief summary: Boy meets boy. Boy meets boy's boyfriend. Then meets his other boyfriend and thinks: Damn, I can't go out with this guy. I can barely handle my own dick, little less a... Wait, is there a name for a group of dicks? Is it like...a herd of dicks? Or maybe it's a flock of cocks? ...Yeah, I like a flock of cocks better. It just rolls off the tongue. POLYSOMETHING is the story of Aaron Moore, a 28-year-old self-conscious, OCD, gay man looking to break his hermitic life in New York City. Pushed to attend a Polyamory Night-at your average hipster bar in Brooklyn-with his roommate and best friend, Alex, Aaron meets Jonathan, a performer with beautiful, curly hair and one of those perfect, well-built bodies that Aaron has seen plenty of times-in the countless hours of porn he watches. Only one catch: Jonathan's a polyamorist, and Aaron could never imagine himself dating a polyamorist. Or anyone at all. However, after a trip to the Cloisters museum (where he sees practically every happy gay couple in the tristate area), Aaron decides to go out with Jonathan, believing he may be the best way to break out of his very long and very sexless six-year rut. Unfortunately, Jonathan's other boyfriends put Aaron in more awkward and compromising positions than he'd planned for, including: vomiting in front of a crowd of hipsters, getting into a heated argument with Jonathan's "pinched-face cunt" boyfriend, and an acrobatic sex act involving the rim of his bath tub. POLYSOMETHING isn't just about the crazy exploits of a man's relationship with a polyamorist, though. It's about the courage to get past one's insecurities to find love; dealing with the heartbreak of losing love; and ultimately working on becoming a better person.

Calathea by _reichii

For what reason does one wake up every day? People had always thought the life of ISAAC RUIZ couldn't be more perfect. Everything he wanted, he would get with his money and influence. What anyone didn't know was his real motivation to keep on living -- something that was silly for others, but a salvation for him. For office employee FLORENCE VILLENA, there was no longer any meaning to his existence. Nothing could fill the void he had been experiencing inside him anymore, and he was convinced the world was better off without him in it. At twenty-eight years old, LAURENCE VILLEGAS had a lot of reasons to wish to just sleep forever. Since losing his home and family, the universe had rarely been kind to him. And yet, he chose to survive, time and again, if only for the hope of seeing his life get a little better. On Friday the thirteenth of January 2023, fates began to entangle as Laurence died, Florence killed himself, and Isaac lost his reason to live. Nine months after the incidents, a new dawn fell upon those three lives when a dead man's soul reawakened in someone else's body. Set in a fictional Asian City called Perlientas. Mature topics: deaths, including self-killing (actual scene not depicted), mental health and other social issues, character thoughts that some may find disturbing or triggering. Despite those themes, the overall story's pretty tamed. Featured on: @Romance [Romantic Suspense] | September 2024 𝑷𝒂𝒅𝒂𝒖𝒌 𝑴𝒊𝒏𝒊 𝑨𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒅𝒔 𝑭𝒊𝒓𝒔𝒕 𝑷𝒍𝒂𝒄𝒆 - 𝑩𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝑷𝒐𝒕𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒂𝒍 𝑪𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒈𝒐𝒓𝒚

Nocturne | ONC 2024 by giveitameaning

'There was a stain on the floor that used to be a vampire, and Aaron Evans was starting to feel like he really wasn't being paid enough.' ***** Aaron is only in Supernatural Investigations for the pay. It's stressful and dangerous, and he's certain it's aging him beyond his years. When the remains of a high-ranking vamp from London's most powerful underground gang show up on his turf, even the excellent pay seems like poor recompense for trying to prevent all-out war in his city. All he has to work with are his wits, some stolen evidence, and an enigmatic vampire investigator who appeared seemingly out of nowhere. Nikolai Meier is surly, uncooperative, but frustratingly competent, so Aaron has no choice but to make it work. But Nikolai has secrets, and those secrets may prove just as deadly as failure. *** #ONC2024 Entry for Prompt 56: 'In a world where humans and magical creatures coexist, a detective must solve a murder case that threatens to plunge the two communities into war.'

Accidentally On Purpose (ONC Entry) by Wolfwriter07

And until Christmas break, the name Lukas Hasten meant nothing to her. Boy, those were the days. ******* Dev Asters is used to flying to Garber, Michigan every year for Christmas break. She's used to how her parents leave her and her brother behind to go on luxurious vacations. And she's used to spending most of her time with her aunt and uncle when her brother runs away with his friends. But the one thing that she isn't used to is having her routine, no matter how boring, interrupted. So when her parents tell her that they're moving to Garber in the summer, her world is turned upside down. Things seemingly can't get any worse. That is, until the day she meets Casey's friends.

My Demon Killer (Destiel Fanfic) by beezlepuff

"Your time's up." He mocked, while sitting in the chair. "What?? That wasn't the deal we agreed on!" "Oh, but I don't play by the rules." He grinned, and oh- he...he has black eyes... Was that a tail??! "What are you!!?" "Buddy, I'm a demon." He let out a howling laugh. - - (SUMMARY)- With a new case at hand, Special Agent Novak will take whatever it takes to find the man with thirty-nine deaths and counting to his name, because he's just some other delusional man out there, right? Oh, but with deals happening behind the scenes, our killer just wants to have his fun. Humans are just pretty little things, he isn't worried. That Agent? Agent Novak? Another intresting toy.
