Joshua Anderson, more commonly known as Josh, is a senior attending Lake Forest High School in Chicago. He's the captain of the school's defensive line, sporting the number 71 on the back of his jersey. He's overall a happy kid. . . or so everyone thought.
When Josh commits suicide, everyone is left in shock. His brother, girlfriend, and best friend are left in extreme grief, and his classmates feel as if they are missing a part of themselves. Ella White, his 14-year-old next door neighbor, starts questioning everything about her life.
Through a series of diary-based entries and short snippets of stories, Ella explains what it feels like to lose a friend. Comforting other people while going through the same thing yourself can be hard, but Ella is determined to help everyone that feels the same way Josh did. Can Ella stay strong when the weight of other people's worries starts to pull her down?
This story is based off of true events but has fictional characters. This is the story about a boy at my school, who I have known since I was four. Ella is the character that represents me, but the story is based around Josh.
Keep in mind that this story is based of off true events and that not everything that happens in the story is true. Some of it is altered, and some of it is straight from my life.

Until one day, his mother decides to transfer him to an all-boy boarding school, thinking that will force her son to socialize. But Sam didn't tell her that at his old school, he was being bullied. The broken arm she thought had occurred from falling was actually caused by bullies. Now in his new school, Sam learns that everyone has a club they belong to. Sam knows that no one will want to befriend the shy, introvert boy who spends his days drawing. But you can't stay alone in this school, which Sam comes to realise when the school's bullies pick him as their new target, and that makes Sam think that this is how he'll spend the rest of his two years in school.

HOTHEAD
Growing up in a toxic environment, sixteen-year-old Jay Foster has always had psychological problems, coupled with a quick temper. But one night something happens which finally pushes him over the edge, and as a result, he leaves his house the next morning with two things: his mother's gun and a plan. Living with a neglectful and drug addicted mother wasn't easy for Jay, and it definitely didn't help that his father abandoned the family while he was still a child. He harbored a hatred toward his parents, and that hatred extended to almost everyone and everything around him, producing a very troubled and damaged young kid. As Jay enters high school, he becomes very intrigued with one of his classmates. Kind of obsessed, actually. Her name: Mikayla Keeler. Mikayla is very unique, and like Jay, she doesn't seem to fit in with her contemporaries. Instead, the two of them keep each other company, and their friendship very quickly escalates into a romantic and intimate relationship. Despite having Mikayla, Jay's troubles continue to burden him. He and Mikayla are fighting habitually, his home life is still unbearable, and his time at school is hardly any better, made worse by a bully named Calvin. Their mutual dislike of one another leads to a lot of hostility, routinely leading to Jay being sent to his school's principal. One confrontation in particular goes much too far, resulting in Jay's expulsion from school. With everything seemingly piling up, Jay is very close to his breaking point, and late one night he is blindsided by the unthinkable, pushing him much too far and effectively planting in his mind a cruel and horrific plan for revenge.Complete
