Book 2 of 3 *Began: Monday, August 26, 2019* *Finished: Friday, September 27, 2019* I sat down at a desk with my laptop open and a cup of coffee. From there I just let my imagination go wild. My fingers wove the worlds that my heart told me to. This was the outcome. This was the product of that passion. This is the state of my heart. **NOTE: I own all the characters/stories/photos used in this book. Please do not try to claim any of my work as your own without proper crediting.

Death Bound: Life Support Edition, écrit par AuthorARCurry
11 chapitres Terminé Contenu pour adultes
Life is full of ups and downs, there's no question about it. We're tossed through the ringer daily, constantly faced with challenges and left wondering how we'll deal with them. Will we give up, or will we try? Will we cave, or will we push through until we succeed? Will we whine and moan about our misfortunes as we dwell on them for years, or will we learn from them, shrug them off, and heal ourselves with laughter? I choose the latter, which is why I've collected these darkly, comedic short stories into this collection for your amusement. The world's a bit tense, so unwind and relax. I'll take it from here. NOTE: Death Bound: Life Support Edition can be purchased on Amazon or my website - ARCurry.com
Why We Laugh (#Wattys2018), écrit par CarpeDiemWrite
40 chapitres Terminé Contenu pour adultes
"The laugh cracked loudly into the school's atrium, like a shot of a gun. A quick bullet. A deadly bullet the pierces through flesh and bone. I realized then... that a laugh was as lethal as a bullet." I thought bullying didn't exist. And if it did, I wasn't a bully. Except I was. We all were. Not because we beat kids up. Or we called people freaks. Or gave them swirlies. Because we never did that. It was because we laughed." For these three kids, a playful laugh cuts deeper than a fist ever would. And the worst part is...they laugh along. 1.Eliza hides behind the brightest smile and stuttered words. 2.Reece desires the perfect body and will destroy himself to do it. 3.Hunter is the bad boy with sick suicidal jokes, screwing both Prozac and girls. But it is more than just those three: 4.London sits in her wheelchair trying to be normal 5. Ashton needs to return to the surface of people and stop cowering in the digital world 6. Griffith hides his autistic emotions. The story is told by a girl who always laughs. Drama, love, pain, tears, laughter, depression, weaknesses. We all laugh. But what does our laugh truly effect? "Hands down this is the best book I've read on wattpad. I don't even know what to say. I mean... I just.... Wow." -Irxdeo This book deals with heavy topics such as depression, suicide, eating disorders, abuse, so read carefully. I want to say some of these characters and scenes in the beginning are based on real people and real events, but some are not. Hi, guys! Thanks for checking this story out. Remember be brave and kind.
Elizabeth, écrit par Everest438

Some things are never meant to happen the way that they happen. Some things are not supposed to break the way they break, but we are not in charge of this earth. We cannot oversee how things are fixed and how they break. We are only capable of putting the pieces back together...mending broken hearts and healing empty souls. Why him? They ask her constantly. Why the heartless man to comfort the hurting soul? Because, she always responds, even after countless mood swings, crazy demands, constant reassurance, and stupid arguments, he never gave up on her. Why her? They would ask her every time. He'd respond the same. Because I don't want to court her in bed. I want to love her in life. Polar opposites attract. Elizabeth and Romeo attract. They just want to love each other in life through the pain, the agony, the abuse, the depression, the anxiety, the mafia, the breaking, the fixing, the helping, the hurting. It's just love at the end of the day.

Malia Rivers. Her family life was great. She had the life everyone dreamed of until her mom caught her dad with another woman. Of course her mom got custody and her father didn't even care. He didn't think how selfish he was destroying the relationship a mother and daughter had. Malia escaped from her mother who was very, is there even a word worse for psychotic. Every time Malia thinks about if her dad didn't cheat on her mom how things would've been different. But she has her best friends Quinton, Emma, and Darren. She also has her therapist Rita who's like an actual mother to her. Unfortunately with her and Quinton Romac it'll always be "just friends" no matter what happens between them. But that stops when she goes to a club, and that club has a blonde mysterious man. Would her life get worse or better with him? Love is a nightmare and a blessing. Was this love? She always wanted to be a lawyer she didn't know after meeting him she'd need one. 'Suddenly he stands up and drags me along with him. He takes me to the bathroom and locks the door as he grins at me. "I think it's time you should take a bath. But since you're so dirty and well I'm so desperate to see you clean as soon as possible so let's just give you one with your clothes on.". He shoves me onto the toilet, focusing on the tub letting the water flow. He lifts me up and forces me to face the mirror. I see him staring at me from behind as I wash my hands. I start brushing my teeth looking back into the mirror seeing that he's staring at me intently with curiosity in his eyes. He has amusement written all over his face leaving me stressed. My body shudders feeling his hands linger around my arm when he randomly decides to lift his arm and punch his hand into the mirror. I let out a scream as all the mirror pieces shatter and scratch my skin.'
