"That was all Jessie needed to be happy. Holding her girls hands while they are both asleep, shitty jokes and bad jabs expressed. That was all she needed to do if she wanted to be happy. To focus on the little things like warm smiles, true apologies, and hand holding under the pale light of the moon. That was the climb on this Journey to Happiness.
To take one step each day, the sun would rise in the morning, the nights will always be cold but they warmed with the right people. That was the journey- This is the Journey."
This book is a lot of one day events with many a night in between, I will admit the pacing is a wee bit weird but should read like a little glimpse of her every chapter.

In The Silence Of Us
I pushed her away, "Meeting you was the worst thing that ever happened to me." Her eyes darkened, a devilish smirk playing on her lips, "Let me make it the shittiest one then." Without warning, she shoved me into the wall. My breath hitched. Her one hand grabbed my neck, while the other grabbed my waist, pinning me against the wall. Her lips crashed against mine, urgent and forceful. Before I could even process, my lips parted, almost involuntarily, and she took the opportunity, her tongue sweeping in, claiming me completely. It's a story about two people caught between friendship and something more, unsure of what they mean to each other but certain of one thing: whenever they're together, it feels like home. For one, it's a quiet comfort; for the other, it's the kind of peace that lets her fall asleep without hesitation. And both would do anything to keep things the way they are. TW: Emotional Trauma.

"I need you to stop bullying Reese." Oh, so it was because of her friend. "I-I will do anything, just make it stop." Her eyes softened along with her features.

I felt the need of reaching out to her, to comfort her and tell her that everything is gonna be okay, but again, I had to stop myself. What is happening to me? I was not like this. "So, you will do anything?" I asked her and it made her look at me. "Yes!" "Hmmmm..." I hummed while I circled around her, I know she was feeling nervous, and thinking that I made her feel that, I silently smiled in victory. "Just... Just tell me what you want!" "Feeling impatient are we?" I mocked her, I saw her clench her fist but I chose to ignore it. I stopped in front of her and stared at her intently before I spoke.

Always, Jessie (Completed)
Welcome! I write in all different genres and for all different ages. Some, like this book, are a bit more dramatic. Others are completely silly. I've been told I should stick with one age range or one genre so I can brand myself and market to niche markets. But there are so many stories I want to tell! And I don't think of myself as a brand. I think of myself as a storyteller. That's why I'm excited to join Wattpad. The creativity I've discovered just in the past few days is amazing! Always, Jessie has already been published. I can only share part of this book due to publisher guidelines, but I'll be posting once or twice a week until then. Description: Jessie is an ambitious but lonely girl struggling with an eating disorder and exercise addiction. After a life-threatening incident sends her to the hospital, Jessie agrees to enter a residential treatment facility, where she meets a diverse group of young women also on the journey to recovery. Reviewers have called this inspirational novel "amazingly honest and poignant" and "an eye-opener for how food disorders can overtake young people." Personal Note: Many books on eating disorders focus on the illness and a heroine who makes a magical recovery in the last few pages. When I struggled with bulimia and exercise addiction, I hated those types of books. I wanted to write a novel that more accurately reflected the journey of recovery people go through. I didn't just magically get better one day. I went into treatment and worked hard on recovery. Jessie is not me, but she does reflect my experiences and the experiences of the friends I met as I got better. If you're a reader struggling with food or weight issues, I've compiled a list of resources where you can find help. Many allow you to remain anonymous! http://www.megancassidyauthor.com/eating-disorder-help.html Copyright Information: No part of this book may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means.

MOON
"Just like the moon you are. Shining so bright in the darkness of the night. Reflecting one's shadow. Like the mirror, you're giving off beauty to a beauty, madness to a madness, heartbeat to a heartbeat, misery to a misery. You are nothing but my own reflection" He said, looking at me sideways. I stare at him deeply. It was so unexpected of him to say something in a metaphorical way, especially in this time of an event. "Always remember, we are under the same sky, looking at the same moon." I replied anyway... The story follows a teenage girl, stuck with her own, pathetic thoughts. Experiencing a moment of loneliness, difficulty making new friends, problems involving her family, social life, betrayal, death, and questioning her own existence. She thought her life would come to a lonely, and tragic end, yet she didn't know the day would finally come when she least expected it. She'd never knew the day would also come when she got transferred into a school she thought she'd never get to fit in, and when she got to meet this one guy, who believes no one else but himself. She fell in love but she believes she didn't receive the same feelings. Feel free to read this sad, and lonely life of a teenager. Explore the diverse world of high school romance, teamwork and friendship, slice of life and character developments this story will get you into. There's more to it than meets the eye..
Because of Haven Beach
"The moon's really beautiful, if you think about it," I blurted. "Yeah?" he asked, mild amusement and curiosity mingling in his voice. "Yeah," I confirmed. "It's just- there's something about the moon that's ethereal. I don't really know how to describe it, but it's a constant in life. You can't always see it, but you have to trust that it's out there somewhere. And when you can see it, it's all bright and shiny and overcomes the darkness." I paused, searching for the right words. "I don't know. I guess it's a reminder that there are good things out there, even if you can't see them... And it's cool to think that someone hundreds of miles away is staring at the exact same moon as you. It makes me feel not so alone in life." Turning my head, I saw him staring at me intently with a thoughtful look on his face. "Too deep for a Friday night?" I laughed nervously, feeling my face grow hot. And this was precisely why I didn't go to parties. He shook his head and seemed to snap out of his daze. "It was deep in a good way." *** SHE was quiet & left out.
