The Bad Boy Saved Me
Do you ever wonder what life would be like if it were a movie? Or some sappy romance novel that you wish your life could be like but it's not? Sometimes you may even get to caught up in the fictional world that you don't realise it IS fictional. Then when you do realise life isn't what you convinced yourself it would be, there is only one possible outcome. Depression. Which may lead to anxiety, self-harm, low self esteem, and worst of all, losing the people you love. Life works in weird ways. Not just for you but for others too. Take Cassidy Rivers for example. Her life is far from perfect. No parents, over protective big brother, few friends, and Asher Norman, the bad boy who won't stop picking on her. Could life get any worse for Cassidy?Complete
A Self-love Story
Bliss. Delight. Contentment. Euphoria. Elation. Joy. Glee. Felicity. Jubilation. These are all words synonymous to the word happiness. But what is true happiness? Happiness is that feeling of butterflies fluttering around in your chest, trying to break out. Happiness is that invisible fluid rushing in your veins, making you shiver in the most wonderful way. Happiness is the force that pulls your cheeks up into the widest smile and makes your eyes twinkle. Happiness makes you light-headed and giddy, it is in fact like alcohol. Well then, I am utterly and completely drunk. When you're happy, everything feels amazing. Even small insignificant things like getting up in the morning. The golden hue of sunlight streaming in through the curtains feels like a soft caress from the hand of a lover. The birds seem to chirp sweetly outside, a melody to which the leaves sway as if mesmerised by their music. The curtains tango with the wind beautifully. Every little thing seems perfect. And that's a word I'd use to describe my life. Perfect. To give you a little introduction about me, let me start by explaining the most important aspects of my life. I have a loving family. There's my sarcastic, yet surprisingly sweet brother, my beautiful mother (both in looks and spirit) and my stern, yet humorous father. I have the best best friend, Charlotte and I have an amazing boyfriend, Theo. I'm quite beautiful and popular too which I'm not saying to brag, I'm just stating the truth. So that is my life. The life of Tia-Jade Garcia. *** What she didn't know was that every high has a low and that the higher you rise, the lower you fall and the more painful that fall is. Follow her story as she loses everybody she ever cared for and thereby her happiness. See her fight all of her demons by herself. Watch her fall in love...with herself because the only person's love you'll always need is yours. This is her self-love story.Complete
Love Only Happens Once
I've gone through some things in life who hasn't? Yet I'm still b*tchy and hate the world for what's happen to me. Okay...well I don't hate the WHOLE world but you catch my drift! I seem to have bad taste in men and at this point I think they universe is trying to give me a sign. I'm know for pushing people away because it hurts less when they leave. Or when they turn out to be someone I didn't expect. So what do I do when I don't want that one person to leave? What do I do when meaning for them to stay means telling all my secrets? I don't know if I can handle that! Oh mi god! I forgot to tell you my name...I'M Mary Kate and Ashley...no sir. I'm Haley! I'm Jeremy Fulton and everyone thinks they know me. No one knows what I've been through or why I act the way I do. Most think its cool because well...I'm the quarterback...I hear the rumors and I don't mind them you know...Well thats what I thought until I met Haley. She's uptight, thinks the world revolves around her and that she is on a higher pedestal...Yet somehow I find that she's starting to grow on me...but that's only because I'm trying to prove her wrong right? I mean I can't afford another heartbreak. The first one.... P.S. You didn't hear from me but... this is a cliche story. Rich "Bad" boy and Stubborn Girl gets together. I mean.. come on its only inevitable. Look at me people! ;) *Undergoing Editing*Complete
