Leelah was in a funk. Her family knew it, her friends knew it, even her dogs knew it. How could she not know it herself? She wasn't stupid. She knew why she was in a funk. She knew it wasn't healthy, she knew her family and friends, and even her dogs were worried about her. She knew that she had to get over it and move on. What she didn't know was how. It was like she had stepped out of the lane of the living and was now having trouble getting back into it.
Raiden Feng was in a similar situation. Raised in a family with strict ideas of success, family, and duty, Raiden has worked hard to be at the top of the business world. He is known to be aloof, ruthless, and single minded. His work was his life. Nobody would guess the rediculously rich tycoon was feeling bored with the monotony of his narrow world.
Can two, seemingly VERY different individuals help each other out of the holes they are both stuck in? with so many differences, there are bound to be obstacles and misunderstandings. But maybe they are just what the other needs to return to life.

Somewhere Between Then and Now
Arin never meant to fall apart. Not loudly. Not dramatically. Just quietly - one bad day at a time. At fourteen, he feels invisible at home, disconnected at school, and trapped inside a mind that won't slow down. His friends want popularity. His parents want perfection. Arin just wants to breathe. After a night where everything cracks, Arin begins the slow climb back - through music, drawing, new friendships, and the quiet moments that rebuild a person when nobody's watching. A story about breaking, healing, growing, and learning to stand again. Not perfectly. Just honestly. A deeply emotional coming-of-age journey for anyone who's ever felt lost between who they were and who they're becoming.![Hold My Hand [boyxboy]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/124276701-256-k701398.jpg)
Hold My Hand [boyxboy]
Raiden never had it easy. Abused and hurt at a young age made him a shut off person. He wasn't the same person he was a few years back. Depressed, lonely, and cold. That's how he became. The marks on his body told stories too painful to hear, and too tough to witness. He never thought he'd fall in love again, or even talk again. His walls are thick and hard to crack. However, Thomas didn't believe so. Amidst the fight for power and control between the same family, and dark past ties to the present, Thomas refused to submit to anything against his beliefs. His one and only belief that everyone deserved a chance at love.Complete

One choice-made in silence, meant to protect-becomes the distance neither of them knows how to close. Fu Chian, steady and unwavering, is the kind of friend everyone needs but rarely finds.

Billionaire Next Door✔
I shrunk back into my seat as his head snapped towards me. He looked like his head was going to fall off. His eyes were blazing with rage. His face was set into an icy glare. His fists that rested on the table were clenched so hard his knuckles were white. As he stood from his chair so did I. I felt like the prey to the biggest predator in the jungle. I took two steps back for every stride he took towards me. I gulped again before shaking me head. "She's just joking Ace." my voice quivered as I took another two steps back. "How do I know that?" he sneered down at me, his body towering over me. As I went to take another step backwards, my back made contact with the wall behind me. Well great. Now I'm cornered.
