Story 2 in the Beauty of God Short Story Series

*This is a sequel to my other short story titled Indigo Skies! While I would love for you to read that one first, it isn't required to understand this one :)*

Rebecca is free spirited by heart but restricted. Her parents, who both have strong Chinese backgrounds, are a traditional couple living in a modern society. And while Rebecca loves them, she feels like she is suffocating under their ever watchful eye.
And to make matters worse, Rebecca loves God and wants to go to church even though she knows that is not something her parents would like. So she hides it all from them; going to church, reading the Bible, and especially her massive crush on one of her best friends in her youth group, Cameron Davidson.
But, quickly, the pressure starts to add up and keeping so many secrets from her parents while still trying to be the perfect daughter might make her world go up in flames.All Rights Reserved

Angels | Ghosts Of The Past 2 [BoyxBoy] ✓ by Pinkrainbowcorn

"Why are you acting so weird?" "Well, you're kind of naked." I say matter-of-factly. "Nothing you haven't seen before." Sky says casually. I feel a blush rise to my cheeks. He does remember. Sky never talks about that time. "You remember." I mumble. "Chase, I can't hear you from all the way over there.." I walk into the bathroom feeling awkward and like I'm intruding on his privacy or something. But Sky just keeps on showering like nothing's going on. × × × Chase and Sky had sex. It happened two years ago on a whim. Sky (who's also the father of Chase's niece) seems to have forgotten all about it. Chase definitely hasn't. Anxious loner Chase Chambers was never popular in high school. In his third year, this suddenly changes. As the girls begin to notice him, he begins to notice an emptiness inside. Desperate for real connection Chase seeks it in the darkest of places. Oliver Sky, Chase's longtime crush and sister's baby daddy goes through his own struggles as he reconnects with a ghost of the past. Chase and Sky help each other through difficult times and grow unbelievably close. ...Maybe even too close. Love, trauma and a complicated family. The story of Ghosts of the Past continues. =TRIGGER WARNING: Depression (and everything surrounding it), abuse and more=

The Light House Girl. by Growling_moon

17-year-old Abigail Wells, known as Abbie, is shipped off to live with her estranged mother. The same woman whom Abbie has not seen since she was about three years old. Abbie's dad, Keith, is not a good guy and hates her passionately. Her home life was not good growing up yet he was the only parent she has ever known. Her only constant. Adeline Cobwell, Abbie's mother, lives in a small town, Reef's Paradise located in Florida. As the name indicates, the town is sort of a paradise for people residing there. Hidden alcove of a town, separated from busy cities surrounding it. The local saying, 'once you are here, you never want to leave,' is something all townsfolk here adhere to. Just like any other small town, Reef's Paradise has its own stories and secrets. Most of such stories are known to all the residents but unknown to the newcomer, Abbie. One such intriguing story is about the Light House, located at the far end of the town on a deserted beach. There is something about the stories, and the Light House itself that attracts Abbie even before she finds out a secret, hiding in it. This is a story about Abbie's journey to self-discovery, to learn what love and care truly mean. Being a teenager is not easy nor is peeling off layers of masks, especially when you have them on for so long. When anger is the only emotion Abbie's known to express for so long things are bound to explode. This is my first story here. Comments and feedback are appreciated.

First Love, Forever Love | 🥇 2023 Amby Winner by SueLou66

"We were just kids in love." Nicole is an outgoing senior in high school, hoping to make this year her best yet. She is the new girl in town and is looking forward to new friends and experiences. All seems to be going smoothly until meeting Tessa. In Tessa's eyes, Nicole is stealing everything that Tessa believes belongs to her. And she is in no way trying to hide her hostility towards Nicole. William, a green-eyed boy who has his life planned out for him, grew up in this town. He knows everyone and is popular amongst his friends. He makes an effort to spend every bit of his free time hanging out with his friends at the lake. When Nicole and William's eyes connect for the first time, neither one can look away. Is there such a thing as love at first sight? I want to think so. *** First Love, Forever Love is the first story that I had the pleasure of writing for a contest. Little did I know that this story would be the catalyst of my passion for writing. I loosely based this story on my husband's and my love story. While much of it is fiction, there are snippets of truth throughout. I hope you enjoy reading my story as much as I enjoyed writing it and revising it for Wattpad.

I try not to stare most of the time, but for some reason, tonight, I just couldn't look away. I've seen many pretty girls before in so many different places; Including the light rail, but for some reason tonight, she was just so much lovelier than any other girl I've ever seen. Why am I even getting worked up over her anyways? It's not like I'll ever see her again. Well, that's a perfect excuse to keep looking! I'll never see her again, so why does it matter if I continue to look. Well then, that settles it. I'll continue to look... He was right. Normally, when I see a cute girl, I'm like eh, but because she's just so pretty, and also because I don't have much time left, I might as well. "I mean, come on dude, You might as well." What a perfect sign. I just said it, and now he just said it. Definitely means I gotta do it. I wanted to text him back to let him know I was going to. Even though he probably thinks ill chicken out at the last second. "Your right. I might as well." SHORT LOVE STORY FINISHED NOT OWNER OF COVER PHOTOS GIVE FEEDBACK IN COMMENTS (POSITIVE CRITICISM OF COURSE)

Fly Away | Spruceworth 6.2 by 3dream_writer3

*sequel to Airplanes* *you do not have to read all the other Spruceworth works before this. Airplanes is the only book you should read since this is a sequel to that* Oliver Asher used to have a knack for getting into trouble. He was unfortunately mixed in with the wrong group of people which caused him to get arrested twice, thus losing his scholarship to a very important music school. After moving in with his dad, his life started turning around. While he can get into trouble every once in a while, he hasn't been happier with how his life is going now. Well, he has once but that's another story. Grant Simms is a prime example of why you shouldn't judge a book by its cover. Shortly after his dad passed away due to alcohol poisoning, he established a cold exterior that made people try to stay clear from him. As it turns out, Grant is one of the most caring people in the world and will do anything to protect the people he loves. So it becomes shocking to everyone when he ends up being the one to get mixed in with the wrong crowd.

Golden Rain [COMPLETE] by TheBlaisse

*4th story in Beauty of God series: While I would love for you to read the other three stories, you don't have to read them to understand this one!!* Kason loves his sister more than anyone in the world. So when her abusive boyfriend leaves her broken and pregnant, his only goal is to make sure she and the baby are okay. But it's hard when he doesn't have any control over the situation and when Kaybree is close to being unfixable. Add in ex girlfriend problems and the stress of college, and Kason's life just seems close to collapse. But then there's Sav, the kind, calm, sarcastic nurse intern that somehow makes everything slightly less stressful. Not only does she seem to be one of the only lights in Kason's life, but she also introduces him to someone that he's been hearing more and more about recently: Jesus. With everything stacking on top of each other, will the small graces like a new best friend and a Savior that might be the answer to it all be enough to keep Kason from going under? **REVIEWS** "Oh my goodness I just HAVE to say Golden Rain is definitely my favorite book on WattPad." ~ @SmileyRiley_1 "The story overall is AMARZING!!! Sav is the character we've all been waiting for. Spontaneous, real, and has a story that has touched me..." ~ @BooksforJesus "With compelling characters, a moving plot, and an emotional background, you'll want to read 'Golden Rain' until the end!" @Rosalie_Golden

Behind The Mask by CAKerst

When Brody challenges his stepfather who tries to rape him, his "step-loser" as he calls him has his revenge by throwing acid in Brody's face. Brody is almost certain that this is where his life will end. A broken soul and a face that was once a sight for sore eyes, now looks like molten wax. Off course Brody has a plan for all of that. He will do the things he still wanted to do, and eventually as soon as he is done with his bucket list, commit suicide, releasing the world from the most horrible face it has ever seen. For now, all he has to do is keep on the mask of humour so that nobody will suspect what he is really planning... And off course he needs to keep on the phantom mask in public as not to scare all the children in the streets. But that's okay... Isn't it? It's fun pretending it's Halloween all year long? It is however when Brody meets E.J. next to him in the hospital that Brody needs to make a different decision. E.J. has been raped by his stepfather for many years, but he somehow keeps a positive outlook on life. Maybe inviting E.J. on the bucket-list-road-trip of a lifetime with him will keep Brody from jumping at his last stop. Will Brody be able to figure out the emotions inside him when E.J. is close before he jumps? This is a story of friendship and love, and delving through the deepest sore to find a sparkle of hope that life could potentially go on, no matter how dark things behind the mask may seem. This is the trilling continuation of "Behind Drawn Curtains" where we meet up with Brody, E.J., Chris, and the rest of the gang that stole our hearts in a tale full of suspense. PG - This book may contain strong language and sexual encounters between same sex individuals. Please be advised that although this is not a sequel, it is best to read "Behind Drawn Curtains" first. Repeating that this is not a sequel, but rather a continuation.
