Loss is never easy. Especially not when the person you lose is the person you've looked up to your entire life. 

Senior year started out like normal, football practices and parties on Friday nights. Beach trips and family dinners. I thought that was how the rest of my last year in high school was going to go. Boy was I wrong. 

Enter Jaxon Castillo. A boy who changed my entire world. He knocked me off my feet and tilted my world off axis. Beginning the year I didn't think I was looking for a relationship. I wanted to spend my last year with my friends, making memories. God I am so glad that changed. Within a short amount of time he became my everything, he makes me feel safe. 

But not even him could save me from the heartache I was going to feel. My life will never be the same, I don't know how to be okay again and I don't know how to make my family feel okay again. 

Loss is never easy. But I never thought I'd go through it. It feels like getting my family back on track is a lost cause.All Rights Reserved

Saved By A Bad Boy by counting_shades

Our moms were best friends. There wasn't much more to it than that. Every holiday, vacation and weekend, I was forced to spend time with Jax and his family. When I was four years old and he drenched my favorite blouse in ketchup, Jax and I became arch enemies...and then - somehow - we became best friends. But like I said, there wasn't much more to it than that. Mostly. Okay, so of course I liked him a little. How could I not? Even though Jax was annoying at times, he was also funny, athletic, popular, and downright hot, and I was his nerdy little best friend. He was my protector, the one who rescued me countless times from countless threats. We shared more than just friendship... Until the death of Jax's mother. The grief drove a wedge between us, and only so much more grief would follow. But pain has a way of tearing people apart, only to force them back together again. That's what happened to us. And, unfortunately, the only way around pain is through it. Trigger Warning: This book contains references to physical abuse and sexual trauma. Please read cautiously, and remember to take care of yourself.

Shell Of A Man by ryanaureoholt

"I guess just spending time with some people fixes everything." Carrying the burdens of his past was Jason Smith. Numb. Emotionless. After all those years, what remained was just a shell of a human being. Dragging his life, one day at a time, because of the promises he made to his mother. Carrying the guilt of being the sole survivor of an accident was Raymond Holt. But, when life gave him a second chance to be alive, he accepted it with open arms. Burying the guilt deep inside, he lived his life to the fullest. He was quite the ray of sunshine. When the two guys first met at the NYU Law School, differences occurred, but eventually, they fell for each other. But, college love is young love, and it doesn't always withstand the hardships of life. Being oblivious to what they had found with each other broke their hearts, and they walked their separate ways. Years later, when they cross paths again, the circumstances are against them. Will they be able to overcome their differences? Will they be able to correct their mistakes and make up for the lost time? Most importantly, will they be able to move on from what transpired all those years ago? Read to find out. A/N: I don't know shit about the law. This is everything that I learned by watching Suits and How To Get Away With Murder. Correct me wherever needed. :)

Nobody's Home by ELanDott

I lost everything, but gained everything in a year, then the next I lost everything again. I was lost, I was in a pit that I couldn't see myself getting out of, there was no light at the end of this road. But then he came into my life and that all changed. We were there for each other when we both needed it at our lowest. I needed him and he needed me, but then we didn't need each other anymore. I met someone that I wanted in my life forever, whether it was as friends or more, I didn't care I needed him. We were both fucked up teenagers who needed someone to just be there. This story does not end happily, I was broken, he stitched me back up, but then proceeded to break me again. Was it for the better? I'll never know, but I do know that I met the love of my life, but I owed karma and I paid that in full.

Letters For You by alexeboileau

This is going to be weird. At first at least. I haven't talked to you in over a year, but the teacher said we should use this diary to express our emotions and the only one I could ever be one hundred percent honest with is you. Those letters to you are worth 25% of my final grade so I must find some interesting things to talk to you about. It's going to be good for me too. It'll help me move on. Help me live my life again. I just hope that it will get easier because for now, just imagining talking to you every week brings it all back, all those feelings. I still hope that, one day, you will read those letters for real. That they won't just be a way to keep you in my mind. I'm not stupid, I know that you will never read them but imagining that you will helps me write what I really want to say. So this is for you, I hope you will enjoy. With all my love, Emily

Detachable by DinaParks

Losing someone or something is not a choice or something it's predicted. It just happens. You cannot know when it will happen. The worst part of it all is that you can't get it back. Once it's gone, there is no turning back. You truly see how much love and appreciation it deserved, but cause you were so live careless you never gave the tendance it should have gotten. You think to yourself over and over again, where did you go wrong? If you did just one thing differently would everything change? Would the end change? Sadly it won't cause the truth is, the end will come. It doesn't matter if it is sooner or later, but it will come and nothing else will mater. There isn't a happy or sad ending, there just an end. The cruel faith will eventually come and take everything from you, in a blink of an eye. So just live.

The Devil is Marvelous by thatsaqua

"Ava, you have to be quiet! They'll hear you-" Tears started to spill from my eyes, blending in with the rain that dripped down my face. I shouldn't have come here. The last time I followed someone I made accidentally noise and got them killed. I had to get away from Jaxon. I turned on my heel, ready to run to, but Jaxon grabbed my wrist. "Let go" I choked, "I have to leave. You're in danger-" The next thing I knew, his lips crashed onto mine. His arms wrapped around my body, pulling tightly to his chest. "Stop it" I sobbed, unable to control my trembling. "Why are you doing this? Let me go-" "I had to get you quiet" he murmured. "Please Ava. You have to try to calm down. I understand you're scared right now, but you have to trust me. We're going to get home safely. Stay with me a few more minutes, and then we'll get the f*ck out of here. I promise." -- A little about Ava: She has made the long move from Detroit, Michigan to California to escape her gruesome past. She moves in with her older sister, and is ready to start her junior year of high school. Despite the demons she carries, she holds onto hope for a bright future. A little about Jaxon: he's 17, and Oceanview High's resident bad boy. He comes from the Marvel family, a family of cold-hearted millionaires who don't seem to care much about their kids.

The Bad Boy Behind The Mask (Completed) by WriterSiaBrown

Highest rank #1 in teen fiction I had a simple plan. Get a good GPA, escape into college and never turn back. I didn't hate anything because I knew, life has a weird tendency to offer displeasing results. A secret admirer with a few temperamental issues and a perfectly possessive boyfriend is what I never wanted. What I didn't look past was that charming aura that was masking his mysterious deeds and a huge crush he held against me, the moment he laid his eyes. To him, I was the only thing that mattered in life. To me, he was the one I was running from, all my life.

Before We Lit It Up by AKlinguisticsaddict

UPDATE: this book is getting published! While I'd love to keep the first draft fully on here, it's very different than the soon-to-be-published version (don't get me started on how problematic the first draft was). And by different, I mean different title, different synopsis and a lot of scenes have been either redacted or added. If you'd like to know more, I have frequent updates on my IG at @author_linguisticsaddict They say opposites attract. But that wasn't the case for Layla and Jaxon. BEFORE Both bear the deep scars of despair, and for that, they were unknowingly drawn to each other. After surviving a freak accident, Layla struggles to keep up with life and high school and move past the grief. Even though the cut ties, sleepless nights, and repeated blame almost makes it impossible. Until she meets Jaxon, someone who might just make life worth living again. But how can they find happiness with each other when they are both broken beyond repair? AFTER She will never see him again. After seizing a chance to escape from her past, Layla knows she's not going to make the same mistake she did three years ago. She's determined to move on from what happened, stay hidden from those in her past, and find happiness again. But like all things, that's easier said than done. And when the last person she expects collides into her life, it becomes near impossible. ººººººººººººººººº She doesn't believe in serendipity. He refuses to give up. Maybe, they can light up each other's world. And keep it from burning. **Book 1 of the Serendipity trilogy** - rated mature due to some themes on depression, addiction, and the sexually mature parts (those parts are marked) - Draft 1 completed: 11/12/21 {Word Count: 113, 000 - 114, 000 }
