Bella Terastano has severe OCD. Mix that with a mother who doesn't believe a word she says, and a father who moved out with her only sibling a few years prior, and you have a recipe for pure, untainted chaos. Bella's best friend, Toby Lee, tries to help the very best he can, but sometimes, it's not enough, and Bella finds trouble for herself around every corner, it seems.
Hey! A lot of this is taken from my experience with OCD, unfortunately. I really hope this doesn't offend anybody, as OCD comes in many shapes and forms. This story is not finished yet, so it ends on kind of a cliffhanger. Sorry about that. Please note that it could bring up some disturbing images for the reader, so beware. Also, this is an intense subject to read, and this is your trigger warning! It deals with a heavy subject, and discrimination towards the LGBTQ+ community. I didn't want this to be a light read. I wanted it to be meaningful to me, and it is! I'm happy to share it!!

Loveless
Love never made sense, but it never had to either. Toby would do anything to get rid of his entirely embarrassing crush, but he isn't sure how. Attempting to find new crushes never works, especially when his best friend can see right through him. ><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>< I'd like to preface this by stating that there will be parts that some may find triggering. There will be times where characters talk about mental health, lgbtq+ issues, and eating disorders. I'll begin each chapter with a trigger warning if need be, as well as marking the parts that may be triggering so they can be easily skipped.

Heartstopper: The Life Afterwards
Hello everyone! My name is Declan and I am from Britain🇬🇧 Heartstopper has become a huge part of my life and I want to explore my love for it as much as possible. I also have a tiktok @n1ckn3ls3n ! if you're a fan of heartstopper and want to see heartstopper tiktok's I make them weekly! I decided to explore my love for Heartstopper even more and write short stories. Most of these stories will be based off events that haven't happened in their lives yet, so most of these stories will be fiction. Also, some of these stories may contain topics that might be difficult to read so i'll ensure a trigger warning is placed at the top of the pages; like how Alice does on their pages. A short disclaimer: I am British so my english language may be slightly different to how you pronounce things, or some phrases you won't understand. A few examples: path = sidewalk chips = fries bin = trash. Some of the words may be spelt differently also. In Britain, we write "colour" but i know Americans spell it as "color". As long as you can read and understand it, there shouldn't be an issue. Anyways, I hope you enjoy :) Declan xoComplete
Hope
Kate was used to dealing with unfair consequences. Having a less than ideal home life and no one else to support her, she had learned to deal with things on her own. She had learned not to feel and especially not to hope. So when someone new comes into her life Kate does the best thing she can think of, she shuts them out. But, after a series of events in the course of one day, they are thrown back together, and Kate is given the chance to explain herself. Explain why she was so guarded and why she had closed herself off in the first place. And maybe along the way Kate learns that things aren't always so bad. That feeling and hoping aren't the worst things in the world. ***Warning: Mention of abuse is included in this story. Please don't read if that is a trigger for you in any way. Hope you enjoy the story. Feel free to leave comments and/or suggestions, I'm open to whatever.Complete
