Matt Litter used to be on top of the world -until he tripped and fell. The question is; how? 

Picture this; it's the summer of 2010, and Free the Doves is one of the best-selling bands of the United States. Those five boys have the world in their hands, and with two albums and a second tour ahead, nothing can get any better. For them, this is just the beginning of success.

For twenty-two-year-old bassist and main lyricist Matt Litter, to navigate the world of fame is not as easy as it seems. It's got its advantages -loving fans, to get to make music for a living, a band composed by his three best friends and his lover-, but also a dark side -and for him, it's the press. Their lies, their behavior, journalists, paparazzi...

As fame begins to increase and his personal life begins to get in the middle, Matt finds himself trapped in a lifestyle that could confrim his biggest fear -that maybe, he wasn't made to do the thing he loves doing the most...

This is a story written as if Jenna and Tyler wrote it. As if it was true events that accured in their lives. Disclaimer: it mentions self harm, and sexual harassment. If you're triggered by either of those I suggest you don't read. However, I will be putting warnings at the beginning of each chapter to maybe save you from having any potential problems with the book. Preview from the prologue: "I've written this story down to maybe help wrap my head around the questions I've been asking myself for years now: Why do some people have good lives, and others don't? Why are some people happy without effort while others are struggling to keep the smile on their face? Why do people do wrong even though they know it's wrong? Why don't they try to be good? Why do people keep making the same mistakes over and over again? And as I tried to figure out answers to these questions, I began writing my life story for you. Not every single event of my life, just the important events that changed my life. This story starts when I was sixteen. However, most of this story will take place in my seventeenth year on this earth- that's when I met Tyler. I can truly say that I've answered the questions now. However, I won't be telling you the answer until the end. I don't want to throw my opinion out there without giving you my reasoning behind my theory." • • This book, once finished, will consist 43 chapters! • • If you would like to check out my other books, Completed books: We'll Pee When We Get To Europe (• Twenty One Pilots Short Story •) Tyler Joseph Imagines • Ongoing books: Tyler Joseph - Short Stories Alive | ør | Asleep: We're Human Book Two • • #6 on #jishwa!
Finding the Pure Note by EffervescentElixir
40 parts Complete Mature
'When your breath becomes faint When your heart seems but quaint You'll know that touch of blue lips Upon bottle tips They say love is so pure Yet it isn't the cure For a soul that's lost in your eyes' You've heard it all before. The rebellious teenager who sings in a band and struggles with the woes of teen drama. They fight with their girlfriend and have a spat with their parents, and then it is all wrapped up by the end in a nice little bow. This isn't that kind of story. Clay Hudson is eighteen and is on the right course to go to the university his parents have chosen for him since he emerged from the womb. He has a girlfriend, Kaylee, and somewhere lost in that mix are his best friends: Fletcher who is ready to kick some ass with him, even if Clay is somewhat of a teacher's pet, and Chelsea, who is fighting her own battle, wanting to reclaim the friendship Clay's broken. Clay has pushed them from his life in favour of a night of wild highs and alcohol-fuelled adventures. The thing is, that life is a series of false thrills, and in the end, these adrenaline deceptions are distracting Clay from the things that truly matter in his life. Since he was little, Clay has dreamt of entertaining a crowd, singing his soul's notes to an audience that would love the pure bliss and magic that comes from music. But school is ending soon, his friends are almost lost to him, and Clay realises his life is a fanciful nightmare. With the weight of expectation crushing down on him, his dad's illness, and the feelings he harbours for Fletcher springing forth after a long period of burial, Clay has to cast aside the shackles of his superficial life and rediscover what inspires him in life, and who truly matters. Sounds pretty usual, right? But then again, No one ever said finding balance, the pure note Clay seeks would ever be easy. -Contains coarse language, some sexual content and scenes of an upsetting nature.

It's like breathing in as much air as you possibly can, and not wanting to exhale it all. Holding it in, how can a heavy soul be in that much control over itself? Tyler Joseph thought about that a lot, especially in his writing. How can he be in control of a soul so dirty? So broken. So heartless. All he wanted was to be known but by who? Joshua Dun thought the same in a sense. He found safety in something he didn't have in his loving household: his drums. He'd go to the local record store, check out the music, and play their drums until he was kicked out. Only to be left alone with no outlet for the rest of his day. He wanted to be known too, but by who? *Possible heavy stuff: Read with care* Stay Alive |-/ (Cover is done by the wonderful @domismymuse! ^-^)
