"Nakita ko sya sa labas ng classroom namin, nakapatong ang kamay sa sampahan sa balcony ng hallway, nag mamasid sa ibabang bahagi ng school building, nakangiti habang pahuni huni ng isang kanta at tila ay nakangiti pa. Napansin ko ang kanyang mga matang nag niningning sa tuwa at ang kanyang labing mapula. Nasambit ko na lamang saking isipan ang mga katagang: Ang gwapo nya." - Mandy
"Nakikita ko sya tuwing madaraanan ko ang silid aralan nila, di ko mapigilang mapangiti sa isipin pa lang na papalapit na ko sa kinaroroonan nya, nakakaakit ang mahiyain nyang mukha at ang mga ngiti nyang nakakapag paganda ng araw ko.." - Dylan

For the booksmart yet naïve 16-year-old Nicky, high school in her quaint little hometown island in the Philippines had always been predictable. Until that senior year. Nicky thought she got things all figured out. She'd be very good at school and be the valedictorian of the single-section class of 2010 of the highly looked-up science high school in their island. And then, she'd get a full scholarship to her dream university. All was fairly well except for a few things like grappling her feelings towards a long-time crush. Just when Nicky thought she could get through high school without too much boy-drama, a somewhat seemingly love life with a boy or two and suddenly, maybe even three was finally catching up with her during the last few months before high school graduation. She had never thought she could be wrong about a person. And that she could always be wrong about boys... ✨✨✨ Sidenote: I wrote this from November 2010 to April 2011, only a year ahead from the time set in the novel. This was fully uploaded on Wattpad in September 2013 for safekeeping. I hadn't gotten back to it in so many years nor find any means and time to promote it. This had long been completed but still needs edit. Enjoy reading! Cheers! P.S. This is not exactly a love story. And yet, it may read a lot like it.Complete
I don't understand you anymore...
** Trigger Warning ** • Disclaimer: All messages & names have been changed & adapted. This is a novel based on creating awareness for bullying and mental health issues • So you think a best friend is trustworthy. You think you can tell all your secrets to them? You think you can tell some of problems to? You think they'll want to speak you? You think you can be honest with them? Poppy and Livi were best friends at school but when Livi left. That all changed. Everything a best friend is suppose to do, became something of the past. Well with Livi anyway... Livi manipulated, controlled, degraded, blamed and insulted Poppy. Livi also played victim, to make Poppy feel bad. Livi always wanted to be right. Livi wanted power & control. Poppy was alone. Alone & self destructing. This is a timeline of events and story of self acceptance. A story of healing.Complete

The Principal's Mine (GxG)
(GXG)"You're my principal. That really upsets me because I think you're really hot and if you're a strict principal it'll make it even harder to marinate you." Her eyes widened and she gripped the towel tighter. "Well now I feel really uncomfortable." I changed her oil and rolled over the tire. "My name is Finley, Finley Williams but everyone calls me Finn. Your local delinquent..." I put the jack under her car and continued "Like it or not you'll see me a lot and I'll definitely get sent to your office. I'm telling you now so you can mentally prepare to deal with me. There aren't many principal's who quit in the middle of a semester." I changed her tire and she said "So you're a oversized elementary kid with a increased libido. If that's all I have to deal with then I'm sure I'll be fine." I smirked softly as I turned to her "Melissa is it? I would tread lightly. I always get what I want." _________________________________ Finley Williams, commonly known as Finn. The town's favorite delinquent who cares about two things. Her best friend and her skateboard. After making her last Principal quit, she's found herself bored again...that is until her new Principal comes to town. Melissa Démon.

THE MYSTERY DREAMER
[# 88 in TEEN FICTION on 14/3/18.] [#5 in angerissues on 10/05/2018] COMPLETED!!! No matter where you come from, your dreams are always valid. RULE 1: Never let anyone under estimate the power of your dreams. RULE 2: Always follow rule one. These were the only principles little Ria lived by. Her devoting and protective nature always came out as harsh and bitch-y. Everytime she felt threatened, her claws came out, ready to defend...to destroy. It's only you who knows the value of your dreams. So, what will she do when her exterminator walks into her life, ready to ruin everything she lives for. She fight's. A fight between two souls. ________________________________ "Who do you think you are?" she asked, bravery seeping through every syllable leaving her mouth. A devil carves fear, and when you don't give him that, he is agitated. "Your nightmare baby." he smirked as he leaned closer to her. They say never look into his eyes...he is evil. Don't cross paths with him...he is unforgiving. Never challenge him...he is destructive. But what did she do??? Every damn thing she wasn't supposed to! Add a punch to the already shaky equation and you'll find yourself amidst drama...teenage drama. Is it right to let these two souls collide? "I am not your damn servant whom you order around, get that straight through your thick skull!" with that she walked away like a pro if I may say so...leaving him staring at the place where she previously stood. When an ego is hurt, revenge is born. "Come on guys. . .we need to sort out some things," all his friends could do was watch; watch helplessly, as destruction planted it's ugly claws into their lives. A tale of destruction, misery, loyalty, friendship, trust and betrayal. "If you call yourself a dreamer, I call myself a dream-snatcher. You won't even know what hit you, little girl," he thought, as he smirked wickedly at her retreating figure. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Has mild cursing be warned!Complete
