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.

Being a teenager is easy? Huh, who said that? People say their high school years were the best years of their life, but for me they've been the worst. Finding out about my mom having cancer, my brother dating the biggest bitch in school, the one big mistake from my past following me everywhere I go and someone stalking every move I make is driving me insane. Sometimes I don't even know what's good anymore or who I can and can't trust. By the way, my name is Nessa Stone and I'm a junior at Skyland High, where I have two best friends, crazy teachers and a whole lot of adventures and issues coming in my way. I pretend to be strong and positive on the outside but on the inside I'm just a scared girl trying to get through life the best I can. Will I be able to be happy someday? To find love and be able to trust again? I don't know, but I hope so. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A BRIEF SCENE FROM JHO: I hear my phone making a noise and I walk towards it, maybe it's one of my friends needing something. I click on my messages and it's an anonymous text, 'Wouldn't you like to take revenge on your brother's girlfriend?' the message reads. I look outside my window to see if someone's there but I don't see anyone. 'Who is this?' I text back. 'Isn't it obvious?' The message appears after a few seconds. I dial the anonymous number to find out who's doing this but I go directly to voice mail. What the hell? I close my window's curtains just in case someone is indeed out there and I sit down in front of my desk for a couple of minutes. Who could possibly send me this? Maybe the same guy who send the photos to Derek. But I won't ask him today, he's already upset enough by what happened.

#1 Teen Fiction | #1 Young Adult | #1 Romance "We all need someone to drive us mad." - The Wombats. He stared arrogantly down at me, a smirk plastered across his face. I sneered up at him with distaste, wanting to wrap my fingers around his neck and strangle that smirk off of him. He brushed my golden hair from my face, his long, slender fingers sparking electricity in my skin, making my knees wobble together. "Will you ever, forgive me?" he whispered huskily, his eyes intently staring into mine. His face was only mere inches from me. I just needed to reach out a little further to kiss him... "Yeah. Over my dead body." I snapped, before throwing my arms out forcefully, shoving my hands into his chest, pushing him from me. -*-*-*- He, is Carter Williams. I, am Lacey Adams. We were once, inseparable. The 'Golden Couple'. The unbreakable best friends, that everybody envied. Nothing could get between us. A part from being tighter than white on rice, we updated our status from friends to being in a relationship, frequently. We were neighbours, which meant our families were all close and even co-owned houses around our town. This, all is, until the day of my sixteenth birthday. Everything changed. The loving relationship we shared, was severed and torn apart. I couldn't hardly stand to look at him any more, without spitting fire that is. Every day is torture being around him. He was in all my classes at school and the window in my room was even directly aligned with his. So, what happens? My mother's mum gets sick, so dad and her fly out. Just them. Leaving me to stay with Carter and his parents, who are never home. We would be alone. In one house. Under the same roof. If I was insane before, I have no idea what I am now. © 2016 by LaurenJ22.

"If you asked me three months ago what heartbreak was, I would tell you it's losing somebody close to you due to unspeakable circumstances. But right now, in this moment, I would say it's you. I would say it's the feeling I got in my chest when I realized I was out of time. When I stood in the rain and yelled for you to stay, but all I saw was your back. I would say heartbreak is lying in bed at two in the morning, watching my ceiling fan go around and around, wondering why you couldn't stop to listen. Two seconds. All I needed was two seconds to say the words. All I needed was to seconds for me to tell you I was in love with you. With everything about you. With the way you move, and the feeling of your arms around me. With the feeling of your chest vibrating as you laugh. Heartbreak is falling in love with everything about you, but having the words permanently stuck in my throat." _____ Gracelyn Levinsky grew up with Daniel Grey.

THE LILIES YOU TORE

18 parts Ongoing

Fifteen. That was how old I was when I noticed Malik Hayden Jafar. Sixteen. That was how old I was when I fell inlove with him. They say loyalty comes before love. But what happens when love burns hotter than loyalty? ** Saffy never thought high school would feel this heavy between late-night secrets, best friends who mean too much, and enemies who look at her like they see right through her soul. Ty has always been her safe place, the boy who held her hand through laughter and grief. But Malik, with his dangerous edge and unreadable eyes, lingers like a storm she can't escape. When whispers in the hallway spark fights, when friendship blurs into something more, and when promises hang on fragile Fridays, Saffy is forced to face a truth she isn't ready for: love can heal, love can break, and sometimes the lines between the two are paper-thin. How do you hold on to the people you love most... when letting go might be the only way to survive? *** NB: Not your regular teen romance *** PS: Darker, spicier and best served with a cup of latte and a box of tissue
