Self-harm has always felt like a taboo. Something that is forbidden. Nikki has committed self-harm for a year now, in an effort to avoid her feelings. The music of the razors keeps her coming back for more. Ky has lost track of how long he's been suffering. Searching for answers at the bottom of the bottle is the only thing keeping him going. Lara has always hated herself - she cannot remember smiling at the girl in the mirror. Even as she punishes herself with starvation, she cannot seem to something to love, and she's falling fast. The idea that they're all wrong for indulging in such habits has isolated them from the world. In order to find help, they must break down the walls of their solitude. But they can't do it alone.

She wants absolutely nothing to do with Logan,but somehow he finds a way to meddle his way into her life. And when he figures out more about Kira,he's more than shocked. He doesn't see a girl who hates the entire world ,but hates herself even more. He doesn't see a fat, ugly, whore when gazing into her eyes. He sees a girl who's been wronged by the world left and right. He sees a girl who cares music more than she cares about her own life. He sees a person who needs love. But not everyone who you try to save ends up being saved in the end. Sometimes it's just too late. As Kira always says ,"Happily ever after was so once upon a time."

It simply is a story about two broken people on a quest to fix one another and mange to somehow fall in love with each other along the way. FYI THIS IS NOT A FAN FICTION! THIS IS AN ORIGINAL STORY CREATED BY ME!!!Complete![Because You Are Beautiful [Para-noir pt 1]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/140634519-256-k298014.jpg)

TW: Depression, Self Harm, Suicide, Abuse, PTSD, Rape, ED, Flashbacks, Borderline Personality Disorder My first Johnilyn fic. It's AU and as you can guess from the trigger warning maybe not suitable for everyone. It takes place in early 1984 - I changed Johnny's age, he is 17 and Brian 15 years old. The plot: Brian is hospitalised after attempting suicide. He meets Johnny in the closed ward. If you think you want to know what else my messed up brain came up with: Read it :) Btw English isn't my first language, so please dm any major mistakes. Thx in advance <3Complete
