Growing Pains (Book I) by tinyyy_xo

"Can we leave?" Aaliyah quietly questioned Aubree as she approached them. He stood in a corner with Luke, per usual. Once Aubree took a look at her, the look on her face told it all, she didn't want to be here anymore. "Why, what's up?" He questioned. He knew moments ago she was having a good time with some girl she knew from around the way. "I just don't feel comfortable." She replied, scanning the area. Truth is, a man made her feel uncomfortable while she was coming from the restrooms But she didn't want to admit that to Aubree on one of their first outings. "Nah, I know now when something's up with you. Just tell me what's wrong and I can handle it." Aubree wasn't the type to do anything besides direct communication. He had half the mind to make them run the cameras back, he was so sure she'd like it here or else he wouldn't have asked her to come. She sighed. "I don't want to cause any problems, can we just go?" Aubree's demeanor had changed, he ain't care for back and forth antics but he knew patience was something she needed. He remained quiet as he contemplated on how to to about this. Does he show his true self & that nothing is a problem for him or does he simply obey her wishes and continue their night elsewhere? Trilogy: Book 1 / 3 🌱

Coming of Age is about the tragic experiences some teenagers go through and many others are aware of.

Sensitive subject matter like drug addiction, extreme poverty, abuse, and violence are touched on, but in an honest, non-exploitative way.

Masochistic Sonder | 𝐻𝒮 | Harry Styles by vvmort4l

based on 2775 - a girl being the love interest of two people is cliché, not until its been from the beginning of time, it becomes even more intriguing when one of them comes back to take what thou presumes theirs. Aaliyah, successful writer, very wealthy and she has the life that most girls want whereas Harry, model and art teacher, is mysterious, Harry is a perfect fit for Aaliyah's habit of wanting and keeping things she considers pretty. William is what Aaliyah first called a winged being, with a familiar look which makes her not mind his sudden company. It won't be a normal life for Aaliyah, once one of her forbidden star-crossed lovers will break a universal law just for her. "Nobody's perfect, like look at me then, I sat across Harry, he might have been one year or a month younger than me, everything about him looked tremendously ethereal: his hands that gently wrapped around each other and his eyes that hid behind his curly hair." Chapter Three- "Let Me Call You Mr Styles." This story has nothing to do with Harry Styles (I had to use his name- and surname, they're so cute!) whereas his features and physical traits are. Mature content might be featured in a few chapters! - "You poor thing," he said, walking over to me, I could feel his energy moving across my room but I ignored it and packed the rest of the pieces of stuff inside my purse. He suddenly clenched onto my arms and pulled me nearer to him, positioning his hand on my cheek, I felt a type of warmth I had never felt in a long time and I instinctively smothered my face against his soft palm. "You're still the same," he chuckled. "I would have anticipated this behaviour from Bastet, not you but I guess you must have picked up her manner," he added. ☆FEATURED ON in YAFantasy RL 🏅#44 EGYPT 🏅#11 SPIRITUALITY 🏅#74 WOC 🏅#49 HS 🏅#15 PUBLISHED 🏅#10 PARANORMAL-ROMANCE

Cynical Souls by DramaQueenforreal

COMPLETED✅ Two high school teenagers finding themselves, analyzing this ever changing world, and building love. This is the type of love you wish you found in high school but probably know way too well that it only exists as fiction. Today I'm turning my fiction to reality. ❣️•••❣️ Excerpt: Just as I was about to seek shelter under some building's roof, the tires of a car come to a halt, I wonder who might pity the lonely girl walking in the rain. The passenger window rolls down, and I spot the most unexpected person seated behind the wheel. "Get in" comes out his voice, and I must've stood there agape for a few moments because next comes his rhetorical question. "Are you getting in or continuing walking in the rain?" Eyebrows raised expectantly. He sounds annoyed, like he regrets his decision to ever stop and help me. ❣️•••❣️ #5 in cynical #2 in loveandfriendship #1 in opinionated #4 in ihatelife #10 in nerdgirl #10 in HighschoolRomance #26 in GoodGirlBadBoy *contains mature themes. *contains cursing.
