What does it mean to be merciful?

Fallon O'Neill can't hurt anybody, a big disadvantage when people are constantly hurting her.

William Carmichael hurts others too easily, which always turns out badly for himself.

When a murder in the Carmichael home rattles the town, everyone becomes suspects. Fallon's own karate Sensei gets targeted and Will and his friends have a sword hanging over their heads, or in this case the barrel of a gun.

Fallon and Will become unlikely allies in a battle of friendships, trickery and betrayal. But the only way the pair will succeed is if Fallon can teach Will mercy and if Will can teach her the exact opposite.

Trust Me by queen_of_olympus_

"I told you to leave me alone. Are you stalking me?" I asked the little shits. "Of course not! Rude much?" Noah gasped, his hand over his heart. "I am truly wounded by your words." I rolled my eyes at his dramatic performance. "Well I am wounded by your presence! What the hell are you doing here?!" Lucas stepped towards me, hurt and confusion evident on his face. "We were just wondering how you were. Noah said you were in a lot of pain, and you looked so tired during class. We wanted to know if you were okay!" "Speak for yourself," Jackson snorted. "I actually don't care. At all." Jasmine has been bullied, abused, and hated since middle school. She's come to believe that people are cruel and untrustworthy. It's best to let them do what they want and pick yourself up when they leave you on the ground. When the trio of new boys arrive, Jasmine walks past without a glance. Her untrusting demeanor is something nobody has been able to break through. But the boys love a challenge. Meet Jackson, the bad boy, Lucas, the sweet one, and Noah, the clown. This cliché group might just make Jasmine's walls come crashing down.

Before by MadalynneWrites06

Have you ever thought about death? How you will die, what comes after when your heart stops beating? Personally, I've never given it much thought. Until now. *** Fallon Vermont thinks there is no life worth living without Riley Evans, her boyfriend of six years. He is all she has, and she is all he has. From the beginning, Riley was possessive over her, and they were inseparable. Everything they did was for each other, and no one would get in the way of them. But what happens when Fallon meets Nicole, a girl who slowly becomes a friend, makes her question everything she thought she knew or believed, and starts to look at life in a new way? Riley is her everything and only thinks she needs him, and vice versa. *** "Everything is made the way he intended it to. It's so freakin' awesome to think about. All you have to do is have that faith and surrender your life to Him." I smile and nod, looking away and sipping my coffee. I take what she said into consideration. At least about having faith. I always believed in something higher, but what exactly? Does god really love me, even after all the bad I've done? And Riley, does he still love him after he put his hands on me? If god can't accept Riley, why would I accept him? I won't believe in you if you don't believe in someone that I love, I just won't. Will Fallon finally give in to the fulfillment God has to offer or will she continue to let the destruction that is her life, fully pull her under? She is fighting between right and wrong, good and bad. Will Riley continue to push her down the wrong path or help her, them, to step into the light?

The Girl They Never Noticed by The_Outkast

✨COMPLETED✨ I took a few steps before I stopped to face him again. "Jay?" I said, barely above a whisper. "Hmm?" "I love you. You know that right?" I asked, kind of unsure. "of course. Of course I do." He said, scrunching his eyebrows as if he doesn't understand why I would randomly say that. "I love you very much." I repeated, every bone in my body aching from this pain, this betrayal. What I'm doing, or going to do, is definitely some form of betrayal. But I don't have a choice, right? He needs to understand that I don't have a choice. Or do I? "I do too. But...Why are you saying it like that?" He asked, feeling a little anxious. "Like what?" I replied, praying to dear God he doesn't say something that'll make me cry. "Like you're saying goodbye." 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 Alexis Pierce is just another high school clumsy story.

Let's Meet Again by Amywritestories

Fallon wasn't fond of boys of any sort, she was sheltered from them by her mom due to some past trauma she can't even remember. All she could remember was that men weren't to be trusted, that was until she met Chris. Running into him and having to spend the rest of her days locked up in a house wasn't so hard but, being locked up with a lot of men whom she swore she would never want to encounter was worse. She knows she's seen him before, she knows she's met all of them before then why can't she remember? Why can't she remember the trauma?
