I will never forget the moment my entire world fell apart.  It was June 7th, 2014.  I was preparing for my grad twelve graduation.  My dress was a beautiful deep purple with silver beads around the bodice.  Dexter, my boyfriend's tie was a deep purple to match against his cheap black rental tux and black shirt.  Though I hadn't seen him in his outfit yet, I knew he would clean up good.  My mom and I were on our way back from Saskatoon.  My dress had finally come back from the seamstress with the alterations done.  It was a cool day with overcast clouds in the sky.  It felt like any other day, little did I know it would change me forever.All Rights Reserved

Altered by LuellaOpal

Have you ever met someone who alters the course of your life? For good or for bad, they've come in, given and taken, and then- BOOM! Your life was never the same. There's always a change, an altering of reality. When you meet those people, the reality that you've known your whole life is suddenly gone and a new one has taken its place. When those moments happen, there's no going back. You can try to return to the way things were but nothing, and I mean nothing, can take you back to exactly how it was. That's what happened to us. I think that's why we're still trying so desperately to get back to some sort of normalcy. Four years later and we're still on the ground, crawling, in search of the happiness that was lost that June. Summers will never be the same. Midnight walks through my neighborhood will never be the same. Field parties with bonfires and loud music will never be the same. I still don't know why you left and what lead you to the decision you made. What I do know is that we're here. We're alive and we're pushing forward to the future. A future that you're not a part of. But in some ways, I'm glad you're not a part of it. I just wish it wasn't like this. *** TRIGGER WARNING*** SA, abuse, suicide, substance abuse, and mental illness. This is a complete story that is much like life; fast, full of surprises, and not always how we want it to be. This has been a project of mine for over three years. It was self-published on Amazon, but after some issues in publication, I decided to just upload it on here. I hope you fall in love with these characters like I have. The friends in this story are trying to make names for themselves, figure out who they are, who they can trust, how to love, and how to separate themselves from a restrictive community. As in any coming of age story, they will experience growing pains... but will they survive them before its too late? PLEASE READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS.

The Last Summer by Aliza_Shea

We will all have together as friends to come reunite together this summer change everyone not just people we loved summer while mark us forever things will happen some we will find our way back to each other some we'll lose someone we love so much it's going to hurt a lot we will grief and learn to love and be thankful for things we have in life like family and friends sometimes life chooses your choices that we can't change or talk what happen last summer. We close the chapter where we leave the summer in the past we once knew behind and live our lives to the fullest this new chapter might open new opportunities that life has for us that we might take. This could be once in life time chance and as we know we'll always have summer no matter what happens in the next summer.

The ways we lost him(completed) by Komorebi_00

I always believed that my group of friends were resilient enough to withstand anything. But then that day happened and I watched it helplessly crumble. I wasn't aware it had to crumble to build itself back up again. It was a painful process But I learned so much, I overcame so much. Here is our story. -/ Imagine the most awful thing you're mind can conjure up, in the darkest crevices of your conscience. Well for me, that was made a reality. My entire world was collapsing. I thought I knew myself, I thought I knew others, I knew nothing.

SMILE ✔︎ by 00Tammy00

I would bet none of you have ever had that dream summer that all of us want.... that summer where you meet a boy on the beach and go surfing even though you don't know how to surf. That summer where you look him in the eyes while he runs his fingers through your hair. That summer where you skateboard along empty streets at sunset and accidentally steal candy from a grocery store. Well... I didn't get that.... but I got pretty close to it. Because for the summer I went to an island in the middle of nowhere so my dad could start up a new one of his businesses in his chain of stores. I went to the beach. And I met Royce... Royce was two years older than me and had the prettiest purplish eyes and blonde hair. He was the most charismatic person I'd ever met. Then shortly after me and Royce's first appearance we met Jack and Koa. It was amazing and I loved every second of it, until I realized that I had fallen for Royce. And he seemed to fall for me too! Until another girl came into the mix 𖣔 "Do you hate me or not Royce?" "I wish I never fucking spoke to you because god I hate you so fucking much for making me love you! It's your fucking fault! Fuck you!" "And do you love her?!" "Way more than I will ever love you." #5 in unrequited 12-3-2020 #2 in tearjerker 3-14-2021 #8 in unrequitedlove 5-15-2021

OBLIVIOUS REDEMPTION by whimzydazzles

Everyone has that one life changing moment, That moment defines you. It shapes who you are as a person, and pushes you down the path that leads to the rest of your life. Sometimes you see it coming from a mile away, but other times it happens in a split second. That's how it went for me, one quick flash and my life was completely derailed I see the beautiful bridesmaids and the cute little flower girl, walking down the isle. Then I saw a handicapped stranger sitting on a wheelchair at the bridal stage. My eyes meet his immediately as i stand by the door. I froze, feeling my heartbeat quicken. They opened the double door wider allowing me to walk through it with my friends and family.

Save me by Aliest_Joo

I'm not like them. I can't relate to them, they can't relate to me. We grew up in diffrent households Theirs with lost of love, charm, paranthood and trust Mine is not alike. AT ALL. I grew up with broken glass everywhere, constant baby cry, abuse and death. I don't recognize love. I never had. But it's not my fault. It's hers, she's the reason of everything. Every step I take, every breath I make is for her And she crushed me down so I couldn't breath anymore And even then I wanted to breathe. Not for me, but her.

Strip Game - A Whirlwind Summer by RainyLisa

My life was a whirlwind of privilege and innocence until everything changed. As the only child of wealthy parents, I'd always had everything I needed, but never really connected with the girly scene. My best friend Travis, the ultimate playboy, was my rock, and we shared a bond that went beyond siblings. But when my dad's business went bankrupt and my parents left me in Travis's care, and my world practically turned upside down. Living with Travis all alone in one house. I struggled to cope with the loss of my old life and the secrets Travis kept from me. Little did I know, our summer of solitude would lead to a truth or dare game that would change everything..." •[ 𝑺𝑻𝑰𝑳𝑳 𝑬𝑫𝑰𝑻𝑰𝑵𝑮]••••

Five Seconds After the Flash by MeganHuggins7

Reid shrugged. "I mean, you can't keep looking for the person that you were, because you're different now. You lost someone who was really important in your life. You don't just go back to who you were before that." I hadn't wanted to start talking about Grandpa, and I felt the familiar tightness in my throat. I was comfortable with who I had been, and moving forward meant figuring out a whole new version of myself, someone who could be OK without him. "So, who are you in this new version of my life?" I asked quietly. He looked surprised by my question, and said, "I would say that's up for you to decide, Victoria."

My Dog Is a What?! by gabyree02

1 month ago i found a dog in the middle of the street. 1 month ago, he became my best friend. 1 month ago, he became my closest companion. My amigo, my partner in crime, the furry animal that slept in my bed every. single. night. Once known as, my dog, dexter, has turned into a, very, very attractive boy named Shawn Last night, he became my "Mate". Whatever that means. And here's the funniest part. I'm human. THERE IS A HELL TON OF GRAMMAR AND SPELLING MISTAKES. I started this book younger than what most ya'll think so if there's more grammar mistakes in the beginning deal with it cause I'm in the process of fixing it. This will more than likely be rewritten. SKSKSSKKSKS DONT READ THIS ANYMORE ITS SO BAD WAIT FOR ME TO REWRITE IT Text copyright © Gabyree02 ™ 2014-2015
