they speak to one another through held glances, exasperated sighs and sharp, nervous movements. in hushed, dead languages i'd never understand. messages tapped through oak tables to each other.
they seemed so elite-the way they carried themselves; an unattainable and glorious confidence i lacked. they, known or unknowingly, flaunted their effortless perfection and intimidated nearly everyone they came in contact with.
i wanted so badly to join their ranks. out of curiosity? loneliness? the thrill of being able to say i know them? why, i wasn't exactly sure, i felt this burning need to get close to them when they had paid little to no attention to me at all.

We were given the school year to write an original novella, and this is mine! I've grown really attached to the plot, but at my current writing skill, I don't think I could've properly gotten the point across in the time I was given. I'm publishing it here both to share it with my friends and to hopefully find proofreaders! I would really appreciate it if you could leave suggestions in the comments as they occur, or dm me for longer explanations! I'd also love to have people to help with the outlining in general, so dm me if you want to see the outline so you can critique that as well!Complete
twisted beautiful things
The leaves hadn't even turned brown before the first suicide of the year. At St. Briar's University, the stakes are so high that at least one suicide is expected. In a world full of privilege and royalty, poison and snakes, students are expected to remain as close to perfect as possible-or else. One particular suicide sets off a chain reaction of ghostly events in the students' lives, forcing the students to choose between love and survival. Ugly secrets are uncovered and pretty lies are told, weaving a story in which everyone only cares about image, perfection, money, the social hierarchy, and status. Smile and you will be rewarded, lie and you will be praised. the car a person drives, the clothes they wear, the way they speak, act and breathe determines their worth in society-and everyone wants to be worth more than anybody else. >>> ""Somewhere along the long twisted road we fell off the path and spiraled into beautiful madness.."Complete

You are a university student living what appears to be an ordinary life, each day blending into the next as you remain steadfast in your pursuit of academic excellence. Your sole focus is on maintaining perfect grades and, above all, impressing your strict, demanding parents-whose approval feels just out of reach no matter how hard you strive. Social interactions are nothing more than a passing obligation, and personal relationships take a backseat to the heavy expectations weighing on your shoulders. When you are assigned a partner for an important project, you find yourself paired with a man you barely know, someone whose presence in your life has been nothing more than a fleeting shadow in the background of your routine. You exchange only the necessary words, keeping interactions brief and professional. To you, this project is just another task to complete, another step toward your larger goal. But while you remain focused on your work, oblivious to the world beyond your priorities, something begins to shift in the air around you. Unbeknownst to you, someone was watching you-has begun to develop an unsettling fixation. What may have started as harmless curiosity has now twisted into something far darker, something far more dangerous. Their thoughts are consumed by you, their every action carefully calculated to bring them closer. You don't notice the lingering stares, the way their gaze follows you through crowded halls, or the way they memorize the smallest details of your existence. But soon, the ordinary life you've built will begin to unravel, and by the time you realize the danger lurking in the shadows, it may already be too late. And his name is: Oh Sangwoo

???: " I have a question for you before entering the story. " Y/N: " What is it? " ???: " Have you ever considered your existence? " Y/N: " What...? " Their voice is very low near whisper.

The only thing you could see was darkness and the bright door behind you. ???: " Tell me Y/N.. If you could erase all your pain but had forgotten every lesson it taught you, would you?
