The Moments
Jordan Wills wants to die. It's a desire so strong that it seems impossible to ignore. It can't be pushed down or blocked out. The only thing that can distract him is fear. He lives to be afraid. The exhilaration of haunted houses, roller coasters, near death experiences, anything that makes one's heart race, but most of all heights. He wants to know what life is like at the top of the world, at the peak of everything. He's spent his whole life certain that nothing can save him from himself, but then. There's always a 'but then'. Madelyn Sheen is dying. Terminal illness is an endless battle that she fights valiantly each day. She wants to survive and live a long, normal life. She dreams of a picket fence house and a family. The only thing keeping her sane as her life slips out of her grasp is routine and order. Everything has a place and purpose. Everyday is scheduled down to the smallest detail. Nothing changes. It's like she put her life on hold until she gets better, but then. There's always a 'but then'. When two teenagers of opposite interests and goals become intertwined, they find that they balance each other out. Together they make a plan to take the other's advice and learn to live the right way before they lose the chance forever. They soon come to find that maybe life isn't as limited as they had previously believed.Complete
Extra Credit
"Why do you always avoid my questions?" "I'm not, it's just that there's nothing to say. Who would ever want to date someone they can't even talk to? It's not rocket science. My eyes are weird, and people get tired of me eventually. There's your one-page essay. Now please don't snow me to death .-." "What? All that you just said is a lie. And I should snow you to death for even saying that! I would definitely date you." "...Thanks." 🍒｡･ﾟ♡ﾟ･｡🍓｡･ﾟ♡ﾟ･｡ Dallas Addison had it all; being a talented swimmer and dating the star of the football team, she didn't think she lacked anything in any capacity.

After landing in Extra Credit class due to a series of mishaps with her grades and attendance, Dallas's turmoil became despair when she became paired with one of the most eccentric people in the entire class. Seriously. Who wore sunglasses to school, much less indoors? When weeks turned into months of working together, series of back-and-forth message threads started to hit closer and closer to home. Suddenly, Dallas realized that maybe her life wasn't as idyllic as she was previously led to believe. || Completed 2023 ✔️ || ©ReeseTory2022Complete

Edit 10/11/2025: I just reposted this so I could look back on this. It's a fond memory of my childhood that I hold dearly. Though it's cringe, I look back at it and it mattered to my 6th grade self. I loved the 80s and this was my passion and my expression of creativity then. I can't judge myself for that :)

Tomorrow's Blues
~"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.

Living under the same roof, tensions arise, and Liliana begins to discover that a perfect family may not be so perfect after all."

My Aching Solace
She isn't fine like she pretends to be. On the contrary. Liliana Storm Whitlock is shattered into a thousand pieces, used from the ones she loves, betrayed by the ones she loves, broken by the ones she loves. So she lost herself. And it all seems to go downhill after a crucial accident on a winter night. Additionally, her life takes a turn when she decides to leave her hometown, Hemfield, to start her new life at her University and finally enjoy the life she deserves. A fresh start is what she needed. Maybe she isn't the only one. The hockey team at the new university takes quite a keen interest in Liliana and won't seem to leave her at rest. Especially the most arrogant one of them all; Rhys Heartlow. He is nothing else than a jerk when they first meet, but somehow his cold heart seems to warm up to her just enough to make her fall for him. However, even if Liliana seems to find solace in her new life, her past continuously haunts her by tugging her back into old habits no matter how hard she tries to fight and ignore it. And perhaps she shouldn't have closed her eyes on the hints she got, because that would lead her into an icy road that is nothing less but deadly for her heart.

I just buried my fiancé seven months ago. She told me not to be blinded by my grief, not to see that you love me," I sigh. I notice Sam lower his head. "I'm guessing that must have pissed you off." "It did! I don't want her to ruin the friendship that we have. I like how we are. You throw the love word in there, and it freaks me out." I fight back my tears. Sam raises his head to look at me. "Listen, Mallory. I would never do anything to jeopardize what we have. Please don't let other people's observations of our relationship mess that up, okay?" *** 1st Place in The Candy Cane Awards 🥇 2nd Place in the 2020 Universal Awards 🥈 2nd Place in the Books and Beyond Awards 🥈Complete
