My story "A New Dream" is a short personal story for the CW "Katy Keene" Writing Contest of how I let go of my dream of becoming a professional ballerina when the pressure to succeed started to become unhealthy. Choosing to break free from the toxicity and competitive nature of intensive ballet training led me to pursue a new dream, one in which self-love and appreciation are valued over unattainable perfection.

The Girl Who Walked Away  by concernedpenguin
15 parts Complete Mature
Prologue In the world of college life, words are often thrown around like confetti-light, colorful, and sometimes lacking substance. They say things to fill the silence, to create connections, and to express feelings that often remain hidden beneath the surface. But what happens when those words fall flat? When the promises made in fleeting moments fade into echoes of unfulfilled intentions? This is a story about the complexities of communication and the silent battles fought within relationships. It began with a simple smile exchanged in the midst of chaos during National Pharmacy Week-a moment that seemed inconsequential yet held the weight of possibilities. She found herself drawn to him, captivated by the way he spoke, the way he made her feel. But as she discovered, words alone would not be enough to bridge the gap between us. As their paths intertwined, we danced around each other in a series of unsaid feelings, lingering glances, and an unspoken connection that left her yearning for more. But with every promise unkept, the reality became clearer: words are just that-words. They mean little without the actions to back them up. This is the story of Elle's journey through that realization, a tale of fleeting moments, unfulfilled expectations, and ultimately, the power of choosing clarity over confusion. It's about learning that love is not just spoken; it's demonstrated. And in the end, it was a lesson that would change everything she thought she knew about relationships and herself.

38 parts Complete Mature

A trixya love story Beatrice aka Trixie owns a multimillion dollar company along with a lost/broken dream. Yekaterina aka Katya owns a creative soul and lost hope. Both have baggage. They both also hold the key to the other's happiness in the form of a shoulder to cry on, motivation, cheesy texts, bad jokes, pints of ice cream and laughs. Will they take the keys or walk away from the locked door? One tells a story of finding who you are and how to move on after you've made mistakes. A story of picking up broken pieces and putting them back together. While letting people in. Finding friends along the way and learning that they won't leave you no matter how bad you think it is. The other tells the story of chasing your dream even if you are given the world and all of it's gold. Rising to your own standards and walking the path you want to pave. While laughing and growing as the person you want. Both stories connect and the new story as a whole is filled with laughs, tears, love, fights, growth, hope and lots of cake pops and granddad jokes. I do not own the rights to any of these lovely characters❤💕❤ (Completed Story)
