Once a happy person turned timid and reclusive, a 27 year old Tyler Benington tried to live a normal life after his marriage crumbled with the death of his husband, by his own hands. Although, he had a solid reason for it which was to save his own life. When he thought he was getting better, the four walls of his heart struck by a green eyed man, Kyle Parker, and his deep ocean eyed daughter, Maya Parker.

Kyle Parker, a 29 year old widower who lost his wife from the complications of childbirth five years ago, lives his normal life with his daughter, Maya. An all time landscaper, but also a flower seller in the farmer's market on Sunday. One fateful day, a middle aged woman bought a bouquet of marigolds and also hired him for a landscaping job. Little did he know he would stumbled into an unexpected twist of fate after accepting the job offer.

The journey of discovering new things and new feelings wasn't all beautiful, but both of them persevered. When things finally seemed perfect and in places, another storm came, testing both of them once again. Can both of them get past this problem like how they used to? Or will the pillars crack and finally crumble down into dust?

One of them battling with despair while the other with grief. Brought together by the power of courage to move on when the time came.

From birth, I've known nothing but pain and fear, used by everyone to get what they wanted. Just when I thought I was finally free from my past, it hit me harder than ever.

*TW* Contains topics and scenes of sexual assault, self-harm, abuse.* "You know you loved every second of it," I can feel the tears welling up as well as the anger building up within me. I stare at him for a while before I have to turn away from his hungry gaze. "Look I just came here to tell you that I forgive you for what you did back in Cali and I'll take you back," "You forgive me?" I yell. "I did nothing to you. You raped me! You fucking raped me! You have no right to come here and tell me that. You. Forgive. Me. You traumatized me. What you did to me tore me up inside and was eating away at me until I tried to kill myself. And when I told people they didn't believe me. I had to listen to so many people talk about how great a guy you were and how I clearly just regretted sleeping with you. You are a monster. You made me hate myself for something that was never my fault. You have caused me so much pain and suffering," I pause to take a deep breath. "So you don't get to come here to my school and tell me you forgive me. You don't get to make me feel bad about coming forward. The only thing I regret is ever thinking you were a good person." _____________________________________________ Logan Young is a 16-year-old girl about to start her senior year in a brand new town.

Bleeding Until Flowers Bloom by checkmate_uwu
5 parts Ongoing Mature
The world of, "Bleeding Until Flowers Bloom" takes place in New York, USA. All places, events, and characters have no relation, however, to reality. Any similarities between the book and the real world is purely coincidental, and has no further ulterior meanings behind it. All places mention in the book is fake, and all events mentioned is fiction. Florian Orion, a male, 18 year old poetry enthusiast is in his final year in Serendipity High School. He's been gay his whole life, but living in the judgmental urban city of New York City has forced him to keep his sexuality to himself. Azalea Qivanna, also a male besides having a more feminine name, is almost a duplicate of Florian. Same age, same interests, even the same secret sexuality. However, what sets him apart from Florian, is that he has a reputation to keep. Serendipity High School is a prestigious high school that revolves around reputation and titles. Few have entered through just intelligence, among the few is Florian. Graduating from Serendipity is a key factor in order to enroll for an even more prestigious university, Eden's Garden University. What's even more nail biting is that the university will only take 30 students out of the 4,000+ graduates of Serendipity. As Florian begins his journey through the final year of Serendipity, he slowly realizes that his lack of reputation will maim him in the journey of getting into the college. The students fight dirty with money, status, and everything else you can name. This isn't your ordinary love story, this is a story of betrayal, twists, and events that will make you unsure of everything you have read up until then is even true. TRIGGER WARNING: Homophobia, graphic descriptions, unconsensual "love", and some explicit scenes depending on what's your definition of them. To put it simply, this is NOT for the faint of heart. FYI: Please comment any critique or thoughts as it makes me feel validated and seen! Thanks for reading <3
