Altered by LuellaOpal

Have you ever met someone who alters the course of your life? For good or for bad, they've come in, given and taken, and then- BOOM! Your life was never the same. There's always a change, an altering of reality. When you meet those people, the reality that you've known your whole life is suddenly gone and a new one has taken its place. When those moments happen, there's no going back. You can try to return to the way things were but nothing, and I mean nothing, can take you back to exactly how it was. That's what happened to us. I think that's why we're still trying so desperately to get back to some sort of normalcy. Four years later and we're still on the ground, crawling, in search of the happiness that was lost that June. Summers will never be the same. Midnight walks through my neighborhood will never be the same. Field parties with bonfires and loud music will never be the same. I still don't know why you left and what lead you to the decision you made. What I do know is that we're here. We're alive and we're pushing forward to the future. A future that you're not a part of. But in some ways, I'm glad you're not a part of it. I just wish it wasn't like this. *** TRIGGER WARNING*** SA, abuse, suicide, substance abuse, and mental illness. This is a complete story that is much like life; fast, full of surprises, and not always how we want it to be. This has been a project of mine for over three years. It was self-published on Amazon, but after some issues in publication, I decided to just upload it on here. I hope you fall in love with these characters like I have. The friends in this story are trying to make names for themselves, figure out who they are, who they can trust, how to love, and how to separate themselves from a restrictive community. As in any coming of age story, they will experience growing pains... but will they survive them before its too late? PLEASE READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS.

"You didn't think I'd let him have all the fun alone, did you beautiful?" Nates voice says. I look to the left of me & there he is - Nate, laying down with his elbow propped up supporting him while he watches Rank- *1 #share

Her lows are low, but her highs are sprinkled with magical pixie dust where everything is just within her reach. She is invincible; she is unbreakable. Nothing or no one can ever hurt her. Driven by her compulsions and fueled by the influences around her, Jessa only has one true passion in life, her music. She wants to be a star and escape the small Ohio town. She will do anything it takes to live her dream, even if it means losing herself in the process. After an exceptionally bad episode, Jessa finds herself stuck, running between Nathan Webster, the man who can give her everything she wants, and Cameron Nash, her adorably goofy yet slightly grumpy best friend who has always been there to keep her grounded when she is at her worst. What happens when friendship lines are blurred and living in reality becomes too much to take? Is living your dream at any cost worth the risk of losing your sanity? ********************************************************* 💚💙 The follow-up to the Drowning Series 💚💙 Please Check out the Prequel Series: Drowning Series (Complete)- Drowning: Book One Resurfacing: Book Two Breathing: Book Three 🥇#1 Brave Girls Writing Contest- General Fiction 🥉#3 Books and Beyond Award 2020- Misc.
