Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are shooting stars? I could really use a wish right now, a wish right now a wish right now.
Im Rose, 14, and I really could use a wish right now. My world has crashed down around me, and now I'm stuck in the rubble.I hide behind a 'cool kid' mask. I wear tough clothes, and a tough attitude to match.Girly? Not close. Leather jackets, spikes and combat boots. Friends? I drift on my own current. But behind the smiles, the carefree act, the tough girl attitude I struggle. I'm bullied. I'm abused. My dad left when I was 3 and hasn't been heard from since. My mom drinks and struggles to support us. I do basically everything possible to harm myself. My best friend forever turned into a not-so-best-friend-forever. I'm alone with no one to turn to, stuck in the chaos of an insecure 14-year-old.Just a little girl waiting for her happily ever after. I could use a wish right now, but with all the city lights in sight I'm not seeing any shooting stars.

Til Death Tears Me Apart Once Again [Discontinued]
"If I'm going to die anyway, there's no point in trying to live." A typical reincarnated into a villainess story, except the protagonist isn't your typical 'I want my happy ending protagonist', but a death seeker. XX 《'Til Death Tears Me Apart, I Will Always Love You》is a very successful otome game. As much praise and admiration the game recieves, it is also, however, notorious for being absurdly difficult. One wrong step and the player would be drowning in an ocean of death flags, for both the Heroine and the Capture Targets. Anything short of perfection wouldn't even get the player a glimpse of a happy ending for the Capture Target the player chose. Enter me; Just a simple, normal girl reincarnated into a game as dangerous as that, as the villainess no less. Destined to die no matter what, I think there's no point in me trying to fight fate. If I'm going to die regardless, might as well die sooner rather than later. But that desire for death causes more than just a few changes to the definite plot; From little ones that have no effect at all, to life changing ones that may destroy the world of Arraxus. So the God of the world makes a deal with me: They'll give me a peaceful and happy afterlife, as long as I get a happy ending for myself. "Let the game begin!" -- Discontinued.Complete
Wishing Upon Dandelions
I was hideous. Wait, let me correct that. I am hideous and will forever be. Even the beast from the Beauty and the Beast is more attractive. But looks were not the top of my priority list. I guess you can say finding eternal happiness is what I am striving for. Being the naive little girl I was back then, I believed that eternal happiness was the answer to any problem. Naturally, I wished upon every dandelion I blew on, hoping for that happiness I once knew when Father was still alive. But as time passed by, fate made it clear that my eternal happiness would never be granted. All hope seemed far, like the dandelion seeds drifting away in the wind once you blew on them. So, gradually I stopped wishing on every passing star. And finally stopped wishing upon dandelions. *WARNING: THIS IS MY FIRST WORK AND NEEDS MAJOR REVISIONS.*Complete
Moon Wish
When I was little, I believed in magic, the kind with an enchanted fairy godmother and the power of making wishes. These beliefs began to wither with every unanswered wish. They disappeared completely when I made my final wish, a moon wish. The black cloud that has followed me since that day has only gotten thicker and darker over the years; it's so dense that it is starting to obscure everything. I can't see the sky at all. It's been so long since I've seen any light, I've forgotten what it felt like to walk in it. Lost in the dark, an accident brings me a glimmer of it. To appreciate the light, you have to endure the dark.
Why Am I Elena Gilbert?
You know, the idea of ending up in a fictional world such as this was supposed to be funny especially as Elena Gilbert because it could be throughly entertaining and disastrous. The best part, you're either dreaming a really long funny-messed up dream or you died and at least (most likely - hopefully) if you die you may end up back in your own body or you'll end up somewhere else you can mess everything up. Me? I happened to randomly wake up as Elena and considering my personality is much different from hers (and I've come to find extremely serious situations my favorite moment to laugh and be sarcastic) so I'm gonna mess everything up as much as I can. Do I really mind if I die? No. Why? Because I'm hoping once I die I'll either get home or end up elsewhere... being Sakura from Naruto would be entertaining, deadly, but entertaining This will end up being a Kai x Kol x Klaus x Elena x Tyler x Damon. It just wasn't decided until later. BOOK 1 : COMPLETED as of 4/22/2020 BOOK 2: Why Am I Elena Gilbert? 2: Dimension Traveling At Twilight. COMPLETED BOOK 3: Why Am I Elena Gilbert? 3 Oh, and The Avengers COMPLETED I DO NOT OWN THE VAMPIRE DIARIES. However I do own the plot twists-plot changes and Elena's personality change. THIS IS A STORY. IT IS FAKE. IT IS NOT REALISIM. NOT TO MENTION WHEN PEOPLE THINK THEY ARE LIKELY DEAD I DOUBT NORMAL FITS IN THERE. I REPEAT. IT. IS. FAKE. IT. IS. A. STORY. MOSTLY FOR COMEDIC AFFECT, NOT it's realism or real life accuracy.Complete

Maybe
An internal voice whispered, "Call him." But I chose not to. I dismissed it once more, saying, "He never liked me anyway." Yet the dilemma lingered. "But maybe he does. The way he looks at you... it's different." Out of nowhere, he glanced my way. My heartbeat quickened, sending shivers down my spine. I averted my gaze, pretending to look around. "Has he noticed me? No, wait-oh my god." --- After switching high schools, Nina discovered a new way of life. She fell in love, made wonderful friends, and everything seemed perfect. But Ethan-a popular boy who never focused on anyone but her-was the object of her hatred. He was always there, always keeping her safe. He used to annoy her endlessly. She hated him deeply. Until she didn't. For a while, she was content with her high school experience. That is, until something mysterious turned her world upside down. Forced to move to a new city, Nina had to cut ties with everyone she once knew. Eight years later, fate brings her face-to-face with him again. "Ethan..." He's the key to everything-the truths she never knew. When she was lost in the dark, he always held the light. But now, things are different. She despises him. He's colder than ever.

Untitled Fears

Then my best friend decided he wanted stop be part of the crew that cries for me to give me another reason to live. I didn't want another one but...it feels nice. Warning: This is rated MATURE for a reason. Mentions of cutting, abuse, alcoholism, bullying, gayness, and Gacha pictures because they help me visualize my characters better. If any of these things make you uncomfortable, get the hell away from my story, no one said you had to sit here and read this. I am not a professional writer but I did try with what my pain and emotions gave me. The entirety of the story is explained over time so if you want to sit and read, be my guest. Our protagonist is Ryan and let's just say he's gonna go through hell and back.Complete
