But behind his silly bright personality was a broken little boy who he think no one loves him. His family ignores him and pushes him away due to the fact that he was adopted. Slowly he starts to drift away from the people he cares about. How long until someone will notice?

Or so had she thought until she collided with the cheeky green-eyed boy, Kayden Lawson, who had the most charming tricks up his sleeve - tricks just smooth enough to make Elaine realise, that maybe, indeed, she did wear her heart out on her sleeve. Maybe, for a few late night talks, stolen glances and shy flirty exchanges - Elaine was completely willing to change everything about herself - to fit in. To make Kayden keep looking at her. But unfortunately, every person does not know how to keep care of another's heart, and often end up breaking them. And spoiler alert, Kayden turned out to be one of them. Too bad that even after her heart was abandoned, Elaine's heart kept singing Kayden's name like a long-forgotten song. Too bad that, undoubtedly, heartbreak weather had come. • ════ ⋆★⋆ ════ • unedited. ©2022 to Aishi Mitra @aishixwrites.Complete
Boy Interrupted
Ethan Lewis Walker was just a typical teenage boy - a star of his high school basketball court, talented, and destined for greatness. But beneath the cheers and bright lights lies a secret so dark it threatens to destroy him. At fourteen, Ethan was violently raped by his best friend's older sister-a betrayal that shattered his trust and left him carrying silent, heavy scars. Since that night, Ethan's life has been divided into before and after. Before, he was loud, reckless, and full of life. After, he became withdrawn, angry, and haunted by guilt. His rage drives him on the court, but it also breaks the people closest to him-especially his little sister Ivy, who often suffers the consequences of his pain. His parents see an athlete with a bad temper. His best friend Carter sees a teammate spiraling. Olivia - first love, first heartbreak - glimpses the softness still buried under the bruises. They call him "Hothead." They call him "Walker." But in the mirror, he still sees that terrified fourteen-year-old kid, shaking in a bathroom, begging silently for it to stop. And the scariest part? Some days, punching, drinking, smoking - hurting - feels easier than trying to heal. But in the mirror, Ethan is still that scared fourteen-year-old boy, fighting to survive his own reflection. Boy Interrupted is a raw and unfiltered story about trauma, survival, and the complicated love between siblings - a boy fighting to reclaim himself from the darkness threatening to consume him. Trigger warnings: Sexual assault, violence, substance use, emotional abuse, self-harm, drug use, mature content.

"What are you doing to me, Isabella?" I was left speechless but before my brain could even register his words, his lips were on mine. My body was immediately ignited with an unknown fire.

My lips in sync with his. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Warning: NOT EDITED> there are a lot of mistakes and hopefully gonna be editing each part.
