The funny thing about dying is that it doesn't happen all at once.
Little parts of you die as you get older, sometimes you may not even realize they're gone, while other times it feels like your heart was ripped out of your chest. "Growing up sucks and dying is a part of living." Sage and his friends come to learn this lesson the hard way. Really, when you think about it, is there an easy way to learn this? Probably not.

That Night
It was a one-night-stand gone wrong. A heat-of-the-moment, unintended slip-up that was all my fault. I swore that I wouldn't do it - even punched my best friend in the face to prove it. But I ruined everything: our friendship, her innocence, my life. It was supposed to get her out of my system, but now I want her more than ever.Complete
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. 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 !!Complete
ORIGINAL:The Boy With A Touch Of Cancer(BxB)
"Leo pinned me against the wall with his hips; his hands gently gripping my wrists, keeping my arms above my head against the cool brick behind me. His beautiful, hazy blue eyes -that had turned straight quicksilver, again- were filled with such an intense, carnal desire I couldn't even look into them, so I looked over his shoulder. I saw a small group of kids from the group standing out by their cars who would easily be able to see what we were doing...or at least what Leo was doing to me. At that moment, my mind started wandering to all the things that I could be doing to him right now...but I stopped that train of thought, immediately, as it started heading to all the wrong places... All the dirty places... All of those places involving a very hard part of my body... I glanced back at Leo; his gaze was still as intense as it was before (unfortunately). He smirked at me and said confidently, "You can't ignore me forever, Ethan. You're eventually gonna fall for my charms..." Ethan Carter was focused on 2 things. 1. School (obviously) and 2. Getting over ex (it's proving to be, harder than he thought), but now he has to add dying to that list, and suddenly having feelings for a boy (which has happened once before, but Ethan tries to forget it). Leo Malone makes Ethan feel things he's never felt for another guy. Leo's sweet, patient, and understanding, the only problem is, he's a guy. Ethan tries to ignore the fact that his heart flutters every time he sees Leo, or that he can't ever stop thinking about him; but if having cancer has taught him one thing, it's that, "You have to live in the present, as you may not have a future."Complete
The journey
"'Alex?', I shyly asked. 'Hmm?' I didn't even know what exactly I wanted to ask. 'So, uhm... Did you... uh... Was it...' 'It hurt. It still does. Losing someone dear is never easy. You'll learn to deal with the pain, but it will stick to you like a scar. Good memories make it easier though. They make you smile through the pain.' I looked at him surprised. I still didn't know what I had wanted to know in the first place, but I felt that I just had gotten the answer to it." After her mum died, Lorena just wants to get away. In a hurried departure with her friends she takes on an adventure that helps her get her feet back on the ground and take on life again.Complete
𝑀𝓎 𝐹𝒾𝓇𝓈𝓉 𝒯𝒾𝓂𝑒 𝐿𝒾𝓋𝒾𝓃𝑔🤦🏾♀️😪
Teenage years are supposed to be fun, right? Yeah... Oyin missed that memo. Puberty didn't "glow her up", it dragged her. Life kept serving premium gbas gbos. God felt far. And being "the smart girl" suddenly stopped solving anything. This isn't a wild story. It's a true one.. raw, soft, and a little too relatable. A survival diary disguised as a book. Twenty phases of growing up without a manual: breaking, healing, repeating... and somehow still laughing through the chaos. If you've ever felt confused, overwhelmed, insecure, or like everyone else got life's instructions except you.. WELCOME !You're home. Read if you want something real, a little messy, and low-key comforting. Orr if you just want to feel seen for once. 🌚🤟🏾Complete
