"I call this one pain. And this lil one right here under his wing is suffering." "No offense, but...who the hell would wanna be reminded of pain and Suffering? If I was going to get something etched into my skin forever, I'd want something that would bring me joy." His grin bemused her. As if he expected her to contradict his moral logic. "True that, shorty. And I agree, no doubt. But who's to say my birds don't bring me joy?" Dumbfounded, Jett lifted her eyes from the silhouetted birds up to meet his tender gaze, stumped on how to answer his question. She shrugged with one arm, "Do they?" * * * Jett Jaletta has enough of her own problems. Unreliable family members that depend on her for everything, too many bills with not enough income. And a federal probation sentence that's held her hostage for the past three years. The last thing she needs is the drama that comes along with a handsome face, drama that could jeopardize everything she's working for - a liberating dance career. But Roman Carter isn't liable for the damage caused by his blessed good genes. As a matter of fact, his alluring appearance and its effect on the opposite sex is the furthest on his list of priorities. The recent murder of his only brother has left him unfocused, indignant, and irrevocably heartbroken. Well, he is focused on one thing...retribution. BlackBiirds is the intertwining story of two characters-who's deepest pains and struggles happen to be caused by the other person. Ironically, surrounding situations, dangerous rivals, and even their own family members cause these two to become tangled in ways they can't escape from. * * * BLACKBiiRDS is the rewritten, reworked 2.0 version of its former draft: Souled Out.

(HIATUS) this fanfiction is recommended for the ages 15-17 for it contains mature themes and is graphic in nature. viewer discretion is advised. dude is a loser, he's always felt like he was at the bottom since his childhood. but hey, let's talk about his other aspects shall we? there's something about dude and his love for the vast open space. when he was a child, his curious mind stared at the moon every night. wondering if one has gone there, or if he can too. and it was settled, his dream was to become an astronaut exploring the stars, and beyond! but in order to achieve his dreams he has to work hard for it. and as he prioritized his studies from primary school all the way to graduation, i'll let you imagine what he looks like after sleepless nights of books and assignments. but speaking of graduation, as of now our little dude had just graduated high school. during his highschool days he always dreamed of going to his dream university. and after years of planning, saving up, and a disastrous bus drive on his way to the city, there it was. his highschool dream right in front of him. and little did dude know, that one happy accident will change his perspective in life. this is a solarballs au, a very different one than the norm. it's more of a retell, a what if. what if solarballs was seen through a different lens? a different setting perhaps? if you expect this to be a light hearted story, be warned that this au will contain very heavy topics. i love solarballs as a neurodivergient and this au has already existed since the start of my solarballs hyperfixation. i'm very excited to share the story of this retelling of solarballs to you all! and keep in mind that this is a retell, so some characters and storylines will not be the same as the original. though, i will still try my best to make it atleast similar to the original solarballs version. have fun reading!

I stood with my back to her, shielding her, and my murderous eyes stared down at the poor excuse of a man, promising unimaginable pain if he dared to move or even flinch. The enormity of control it took me to suppress the impulse to eradicate the piece of scum, who dared to even think about laying a hand on a woman, was inconceivable. My whole body was trembling with rage. The guy was intimidated by the fury in my eyes and stumbled back to his intoxicated friends who were too dazed to understand the situation. I was disappointed and relieved at the same time that the chaos didn't end in a fist fight. When I turned around to console her, she was gone. And as I looked around, I saw her back just leaving the bar through the entrance. I hurried out to follow her. She walked ahead of me aimlessly and disoriented like a wounded animal that had just escaped the claws of death. My heart ached for her. I found a kindred soul in her. She evidently had been wounded in the past. Just like me. But in an even worse way than I had been hurt, and it angered me, that someone had dared to harm her. *** Eden Marie Simmons is still recovering after escaping an abusive relationship when she meets Keane, the broody and enigmatic neighbor who is shrouded in mystery. Both are still being haunted by their past and are not ready for a new commitment, but when fate repeatedly puts them in each other's paths, they can't deny their attraction for each other. Life challenges them both with secrets, lies, and broken trusts, and confronts them with their pasts. They both must learn to be brave enough to love again. *** Story is previously called "Paradise Lies"
