When her ex-friend-turned-boyfriend reappears in her life, Anna must put her hurt and resentment aside to help him survive his withdrawal before he relapses, or worse, dies in the process. Two years ago, Anna's boyfriend disappeared, leaving Anna hurt and abandoned in a new city to rebuild her life. Until he appears at her doorstep, begging for something to eat and a place to sleep. Bitter and determined not to let him hurt her again, Anna agrees. As she witnesses the slow deterioration of his physical and mental health, however, and with flashes of their past together haunting every waking moment, her resolves begin to weaken.

Just A Dare (bisexual love) by jmjulie25

It started with a dare and led to something more. Anna is the new popular student. Almost everyone either hates her, loves her, or wants her. She made the rules. She can be sweet, fun, and a bitch. She doesn't answer to anyone, not even the Dean can tell her what to do. She was so competitive with girls and boys. So when peers dared her to make the new girl to fall for her... she didn't even think twice and accepted the challenge. Will it lead to a happy ever after or life greatest regret?

She wanted to change and that's what she did. 17 year old Bailey Skeels has been one to follow rules and go by the book. But after getting accused for something she didn't do with only a semester left of her senior year, she see's that the people around started treating her differently, especially her parents. She decides to get help from the school's notorious rebel, Skylar Morozan, an 18 year old girl of foul words and bold actions; she follows her in changing who she is into how she's seen but she soon whitenesses the damaged life that Skylar lives wondering if it's any use to continue being who she's becoming. "Skylar, what have you done?" I stood a few feet away from her seeing dark droplets drip from her knuckles. "I told you to stay in the car, get fucking back in the car Bailey!" She didn't hesitate turning around not answering my question. "Who's on the ground?" I asked again my hand shaking trying to point at the limp body on the damp concrete. ________ Highest Rankings cus I don't know how this happened: #1 teen romance: 08/12/22 #1 bisexual: 08/12/22 #4 girlxgirl: 08/12/22 #8 lgbt: 08/12/22 #29 romance: 08/12/22 All rights reserved Story will contain triggering aspects but readers will be warned before chapter begins.

Have you ever felt so broken that you couldn't pull yourself out of bed and continue to live your life like you used to. A simple task such as tying your shoes already seems like a huge burden on your account. Struggling with yourself because everything around you doesn't matter anymore. That's mainly because she broke my heart. Who knew love could turn a person around. Who knew love would hurt this bad. Who knew love can make you feel numb. A simple word yet it has an enormous impact in everyone's life. Everything happens for a reason, and I'm not blaming it all on her, though there are things you just wish you could take back and redo because of the feeling it gave you. And because of those traumatic event, I turned into a complete opposite of me. Well, that's until I met...her. You'd think that I've learned my lesson but she's different. I'm that cold-hearted until she drop down here on earth and save my miserable, sorry ass. A girl who doesn't know how to give up. A girl who's filled with happiness in a way that if you stare at her, there's this feeling you can't explain and it just lightens your mood. A girl who's friends with everyone because of her pure and innocent soul. A girl that can certainly light up a god d*mn world with her personality. ... And a girl who made me feel again. A girl who made me fall in love again. A girl who made me forget all the things that I've been through because she made my present more than just worth living, and my future to be worth looking forward to.

Her by cianafaven

Phoenix LeFlore: She is alive. Her brother is dead. People are moving forward. She is standing still. He was everything. Now she has nothing. Aza Ainsworth: She is a soft girl who acts tough. She is a warm girl who was treated coldly. Someone made her heart beat faster, then broke it. Can a broken heart help a broken soul? _____ Girl meets girl. Girl doesn't like girl. Then girl likes girl. Could she like her back? Two girls. One story. _____ "I like: The soft side underneath her tough side. Her mind. Her wit. Her cute awkwardness. The way she bites her nails. The way she dresses, like a 90s character, like someone in a movie. The way she smells, like mint, spicy but sweet, like her personality. Her green, serious, sexy eyes. Her laugh. Her name. Her hand in my hand. The stars on her face. The X on the back of her neck. I want to make her laugh all day, want to say her name, whisper it, scream it. Phoenix. I want to hold her hand, want to kiss all the stars on her face, and want to cherish the X on the back of her neck. I want to cherish her. I don't like: Phoenix."

Catastrophically Carla (Lesbian Story) by xpaaulettex

Ages 14+ (lesbian concepts and some profanity) This is not your everyday love story, okay? It's not a chick flick either. The events and themes within my pages have meaning, depth, truth-and most of all, reality. You are about to be taken on an adventure about a girl who's life is not like everybody else's. I look like a normal teen girl, I mean, I have hair and two eyes and two hands and feet like everybody else, but I couldn't feel more different. I have two moms, yes. Let's just get that out there before you start reading and close my diary like everyone in my life has shut me out of theirs. All I want is a normal life with normal friends who don't judge me because of my home situation. I don't even remember the last time I went on a sleepover or called somebody my age. I don't mean to be a downer, because it does get better. Life gets better. Struggles are only temporary, I know that now. And by my last words reach your eyes, I've come a long way, and have grown to see potential in myself. I'm sharing this with you because I want to make a difference. I know now that I'm not the only one in the world that feels alone. I've been there, done that, and there's more loneliness to come, but for now, I feel more prepared for it. I know how it feels to sit by yourself at lunch every day and how it feels to watch others go to prom with dates and feel like shit because you don't think you'd even have any friends to go with. Please ready my diary. I am much older now, and much more wiser, and I can't wait for you to realize the potential in yourself, too.
