✧ prequel to The Search for Lily Myers → read that one first! ✧
   

7:04 p.m. 
Wednesday, September 2nd. 

No one knows it, but at this moment, three things are certain: 
Lily Myers is about to disappear,
Liam Duke is about to have his heart broken,
and Henry Caruso is about to meet the love of his life. 

But Liam wasn't always the confident boyfriend, Lily wasn't always the troubled girlfriend, and Henry definitely wasn't always the loving cousin. 

So how did they get there? It's kind of a long story.

✦ A/N: Hi friends! Even though this story is a prequel, it is intended to be read as a follow-up to The Search for Lily Myers, so make sure you go read that first! There are major spoilers in this book for that story, so I definitely don't recommend reading this one first. Nothing in this book should be 18+, but I will try to put a trigger warning at the start of the chapter if I think it might be helpful to do so.All Rights Reserved

The Aid by funkystyles

❝In sickness and in health, to love and to cherish...❞ Evie Stanton dreamed of playing the bass for a living before a fateful winter night hurled her into adulthood at the age of eighteen. Three years later, the former wild child hasn't let her past define her and does her best with what she's learned from it - be there for others as much as possible. Harry Moran had it all - a beautiful girlfriend, good looks, popularity. What no one could see behind his charm and sense of humor was a middle child who kept all of his problems to himself, even after receiving a heartbreaking diagnosis, so as not to be a burden to anyone around him. And then, the two meet. Art meets sports, heavy metal meets alternative rock, but more than anything, stubborn meets stubborn. Big-city girl with a savior complex meets small-town boy who simply refuses to be taken care of. Unstoppable force from Manhattan meets immovable object that has come to get on her nerves all the way from Colorado, and what better way to deal with it than to make her life all about saving his? // TW: serious illness, strong language, alcohol, mentions of substance abuse, mentions of physical abuse

The Way I Loved You ✓ by njhpiper

She'd die for love. He didn't believe in love. *** From reading The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood, to watching 10 Things I Hate About You, to listening to You are in Love by Taylor Swift, Emily Kingsley's life is a sum of moments she has spent after romance. Watching, reading, listening or daydreaming, romance has never failed to comfort this high school junior of 17 years of age. She has her own issues: self-sabotage, lack of focus in studying, randomly popping up acne and not loving the way she looked. But she could forget all that as long as she is reading about two people falling in love and finding their happily ever after. Emily wants a romance for herself too, and she knows just the person for it. Landon McArther, a senior in her school. According to Emily, Landon is handsome, sophisticated, well-spoken and unlike any of the immature boys of her class who didn't get her at all. Landon was everything Emily has always dreamed about and moreover he appreciates her for the person she is. But there's just a teeny-tiny problem. Landon McArther has a girlfriend. While that wasn't in Emily's bingo card, she hopes, prays, and longs for the day Landon will be single (because he is Emily's soulmate, and he has to be) and awaits her chance for romance. At the same time, her seatmate in chemistry, the rumored delinquent, grumpy asshole Nathan Callahan, makes fun of her romantic dreams. Can Emily ever find true love? Completed. A fun romcom that will make you scream and squeal and blush!

If I Stay {Fillie} by filliecheesesticks

Finn Wolfhard and Millie Bobby Brown couldn't be more different: Finn is a world famous musician, with millions of fans who adore him, more money than he could spend in a lifetime, and all the girls he could ever want; Millie, on the other hand, is perfectly normal-just a regular teenage girl trying to help her family get by while counting on her friends to keep her upright. When the two meet by chance and get into a rough situation together, Millie is forced to leave everything she loves behind. Over time, the rigid walls surrounding them both begin to fall, and Finn finds himself capable of loving another person for the first time in years. However, falling in love has a price. Finn doesn't think the world is worth living in if Millie is not there beside him, but her time is limited. And it's running out with every passing day. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PG-13 Completed! I live in the United States and English is my first language.

Billie Eilish has a reputation on campus-a player with a long list of hookups and no intention of settling down. Her love life is simple: no strings, no drama, no complications. But when she starts a secret friends-with-benefits relationship with Sophia Rin, a girl who's just as focused on school as she is on staying out of Billie's mess, things start to get complicated. What begins as a no-strings fling turns into something more. The more time they spend together, the harder it is for Sophia to ignore how much Billie's flirty reputation bothers her. Billie might be coming home to Sophia every night, but what happens when it's not enough to keep pretending she doesn't care? In this slow-burn romance, boundaries blur, feelings grow, and both girls have to decide-are they willing to risk everything to cross the line? ╭────── · · ୨୧ · · ──────╮ Please note that the events and characters in this story are purely fictional and do not reflect real life.

Will she be able to learn from her mistakes and protect her heart this time around? Emma must make a tough decision: allow him to reenter her life with the possibility of breaking her heart again, or take the opportunity to start afresh and find new love. She must decide if staying the same or taking a chance on something new is the right choice for her. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * This story was originally a 1D fanfiction uploaded in wattpad year 2015 with 13 Chapters. Now, I'm editing it, revising some of the names (as well as the scenes and most of the chapters) so it will fall under the category of young adult romance instead of fanfiction. The reason for doing this is for publication purposes in the future. Feel free to imagine the same characters from the original, or think of someone you liked. Louis, Harry, Zayn, Niall, and Liam will always have a special place in my heart. But for inspiration purposes, I now imagine my BTS boys for this story, particularly JK and V!
