acceptance anger bargaining denial depression grief loss shock short stagesofgrief story

What is it like to lose someone you love? 
It's like time stops for a moment, and everything around you freezes. And you can't feel anything because your whole body goes numb. Then, before you can even process what's going on, that moment ends. And for what feels like an eternity, all you can feel is the pain of your heart shattering.

This is a short story of a teen going through the stages of grief after the sudden death of her boyfriend.

Wrote this for a school assignment and was really proud of how it turned out for once. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do.All Rights Reserved

Pessimist by v1carious

[01/07/2021] - [13/04/2023] "You can't keep going around like a fucking maniac and treating me like shit. That isn't how relationships work," Sophia's voice was havoc as she verbalized her emotions. "That isn't how we work..." Tired, vulnerable and agitated at not only him, but herself. How could she let herself get this far, in such little time? He looked down, ashamed, not wanting to respond. His heart felt like it was beating faster than it should've. "I forgot how it felt to love you." As soon as those words were uttered from Sophia's lips, his world broke apart. Gone, in just a matter of seconds. - - - When Sophia Adam moves to a new town, she wishes nothing more than a boring, new life, to separate herself from her past. Moving meant completing university and getting a clerkship with a judge. Moving meant making refreshing new friends, and meeting a mysterious guy that seems hell-bent on getting to know her. To Sophia, moving to a new town was everything she imagined and more. She just didn't expect her past to follow.

Our Love Story by SashaB629

Our love story is a difficult one, it's impossible to convey it in a few words, This is a new story of a boy and a girl. It's impossible to convey it in a few words. It only took a few weeks, couple glances, and few words for it all to change. She was always outgoing, always smiling, honour roll, perfect kid and always with her friends doing the craziest things. He was a player with a tortured past he was a bad and good deep down but known by everyone. She was mysterious and different. He was plain and boring. Do you believe it could all change in a year? Do you believe it all changed because of the two of them meeting? Believe it.

"when death holds my hand, i will hold you with the other and find you in another life again." denial: after first losing a loved one, you may feel shocked or numb. almost as if the death is not a real occurrence. this is a temporary way to deal with the rush of overwhelming emotion. its a defense mechanism. but in eden's case, the first stage of grief didn't seem to be temporary. and there is only one way to help him move on. tw ! suicide/death/addiction/mental illness mature content

Tomorrow's Blues by fadedxfires

~"You don't- you don't need me." I stared in shock. This was the first shred of emotion he'd shown since he started avoiding me, and I had no idea how to respond. What was I supposed to say to something like that? So I let myself be honest, and I told him exactly how I felt. "But I do." I almost choked on my words. "I do need you. I can't talk to anybody else. I can't eat. I can't sleep. And I know you know what that's like."~ Liliana is now an orphan. Just 17 years old, she lost her parents in a boating accident and now she must live with her best friend, her best friend's parents and her best friend's brother, Joseph. She struggles through her grief as well as dealing with the mysterious but obnoxious Joseph, and it soon comes to light that he isn't the only one around her keeping secrets. Living under the same roof, tensions arise, and Liliana begins to discover that a perfect family may not be so perfect after all." If you like a good old slowburn, enemies (ish) to lovers, bonding over tragic backstories type beat then this story is for you, I promise :) #1 in #bestfriendsbrother (didn't note the exact date - some time in January 2021) #1 in #dealing with death (11/04/21) amazing cover by @sixty6ix !!

Heart of Stone (Parts I & II) by Joflower

[COMPLETE] Some bonds can't be broken, even in death. -- He couldn't endure another heartbreak. "Accepting her would be a mistake," he said. "She's a human. I can't afford to have her blood on my hands." Gwen looked away, and he knew she saw the image that flashed in his mind. The slaughter. Bodies everywhere. The putrid stench of decay and metallic blood seeping through his fingers and staining the earth under his feet. The small, lifeless body in his hands whose death he couldn't prevent. And whose death he could never forget. "It won't be like that with her," she murmured to the floor. "I won't take that chance." Heavy with sorrow, her brown eyes looked up into his. "Not everyone is given a second chance. Take it." -- Soulmates only come along once in a lifetime. Or so everyone thought. She was his second chance. But her heart loved another. Fate would bring them together, and Fate would tear them apart. -- **A slow-burning, sensual love story with a splash of humor, a dash of action, and a lot of heart.** Rated PG-13 for adult content (coarse language, violence, and non-explicit sex) [There is a separate R-rated scenes book for those who want steamier scenes] CONTAINS: alpha lycan x human mates, strong female lead, second chance mates, reincarnation (tabula rasa), love-triangles, vampires, action, drama, humor, relatable characters, high stakes, passionate romances VOID OF: "insta-love," extremely possessive, aggressive, abusive alpha mates, Stockholm Syndrome *OVERALL WINNER of 2017 Flower's Awards*
