There is one thing that all of humanity has in relationship to each other - whether your gender, class, background, family, or race - and that is death. Both in the way of losing other beings, and eventually being one of those beings to be lost. 
If there is one thing that Adan Pearson now knows all too well - it is loss. 
Ada is a girl content in the shadow of her older sister Anni, but when her sister tragically dies in a car accident, her comfort disappears, and her world quickly falls apart. In the wake of Anni's death, all of Ada's friendships and relationships seem to be falling apart - the only person holding her together is her unexpected former best friend.
Vanderbilt Grey is the only child of two powerful people - one being in the FBI and the other being an all-American MVP NFL player. He has grown up with no struggles - at least, that is what the world assumes. In reality, he has never been able to get the attention he needs from his parents, and it has caused him a hatred that pushes anyone and everyone away. 
Will he be able to save her from herself? Or will the death of her sister be the end of both the Pearson sisters?

Following the tragic death of his mother in a terrible car accident, a loner, 17 year old boy, Darius, must go about his life living with his mother's twin in a different state. Darius must balance the loss of his mother, the emotional and mental trauma of being with her at the very moment of her death, and his emotionally unstable father who left Darius and his siblings to recover from the loss of his wife. The young teen falls into a deep depression after the loss of his mother and becomes lost in the weeks following her death. His only rays of happiness are his baby sister, Leyva and music, both of which still don't manage to make him any more happy than he has been since his loss. Soon after these tragic events, Darius meets a girl at the oddest of times named Bryn. Bryn soon becomes his largest shimmer of hope and happiness and pulls him out of his dark depression. She helps Darius over come his mother's death and find helpful ways to avoid falling back into the depression, which in turn opens up new career paths for him. Two months after the two meet and become friends, they then become a couple. Darius' life then takes a horrible turn yet again as Bryn falls severely ill. Darius stays with her for the months that follow the sickness that traps her. Darius soon must face the choice of moving on from yet another loss, or falling back into the depression he had found after his mother's death.

Her by cianafaven

Phoenix LeFlore: She is alive. Her brother is dead. People are moving forward. She is standing still. He was everything. Now she has nothing. Aza Ainsworth: She is a soft girl who acts tough. She is a warm girl who was treated coldly. Someone made her heart beat faster, then broke it. Can a broken heart help a broken soul? _____ Girl meets girl. Girl doesn't like girl. Then girl likes girl. Could she like her back? Two girls. One story. _____ "I like: The soft side underneath her tough side. Her mind. Her wit. Her cute awkwardness. The way she bites her nails. The way she dresses, like a 90s character, like someone in a movie. The way she smells, like mint, spicy but sweet, like her personality. Her green, serious, sexy eyes. Her laugh. Her name. Her hand in my hand. The stars on her face. The X on the back of her neck. I want to make her laugh all day, want to say her name, whisper it, scream it. Phoenix. I want to hold her hand, want to kiss all the stars on her face, and want to cherish the X on the back of her neck. I want to cherish her. I don't like: Phoenix."

Tomorrow's Blues by fadedxfires

~"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."
