[FEATURED x5]

When Lucy's estranged father dies suddenly, she knows she is not going to have the Senior Year of her dreams - it is definitely not starting out as her best year ever, that's for sure. Instead, she begins to question the point of it all. Refusing to act like the good girl she's always been, Lucy finds love, hurt and confusion, capturing her thoughts in an anonymous high school newspaper column that causes (big) problems of its own.

Curing Kyle Magnusson ✓ by ScarlettBlackDaisy

When her ex-friend-turned-boyfriend reappears in her life, Anna must put her hurt and resentment aside to help him survive his withdrawal before he relapses, or worse, dies in the process. Two years ago, Anna's boyfriend disappeared, leaving Anna hurt and abandoned in a new city to rebuild her life. Until he appears at her doorstep, begging for something to eat and a place to sleep. Bitter and determined not to let him hurt her again, Anna agrees. As she witnesses the slow deterioration of his physical and mental health, however, and with flashes of their past together haunting every waking moment, her resolves begin to weaken. Can Anna save Kyle from his self-destructive behaviors or will she lose him once again? This time, forever. | Featured Wattpad Editor's Pick | shortlist ONC 2019 | Warning: The story contains mature language, mentions of suicide, self-harm, mental health issues, child abuse, and substance abuse.

𝐅𝐈𝐍𝐃𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐖𝐀𝐘 𝐁𝐀𝐂𝐊 by lexilexlexi

Avalon has the good look, good grades, friends, three wonderful brothers, caring and loving parents. Everyone would think she has everything, and that was probably true a few years ago. But life is unpredictable, and after some bad events, her life is turned upside down. The once cheerful, bubbly, and always smiling girl is now a beautiful mess. Between nightmares, panic attacks, insomnia, and more, she starts hating this town she cherishes so much and everything that brings her memories. That's why she decided to leave and never come back again, at least until she is in a better state. After three years in France, she is back in her childhood town and decided that she will chase away her demons for good. She knows that she can't do it alone, she needs her family and her friends. And perhaps she will find peace and maybe more with the most unexpected person for her. *** "You're important to me, V. You're my first everything, and I don't want anyone else." "Do you say that to all your conquests?" "No. Because there are no others. It's only ever been you."

Lost & Insecure by aciv147

When Dana Thomas's parents get divorced, and her aunt and uncle pass away, her mother decides it's time for a change - just in time for senior year of high school. Dana gets thrown into a small town where everyone knows everyone else and concerns themselves with everyone else's business. Katie Torres, daughter of a wealthy single mother, is your typical popular cheerleader who had everything she could have asked for in the world handed to her. Still, she's unhappy. A laid-back mom, attractive boyfriend, and everyone in town groveling at her feet aren't enough for Katie. When Katie finally meets her mysterious new neighbor from across the street, it's by waking up next to her in bed - but are Katie's initial assumptions about the night before what actually happened? Katie can't seem to escape the new girl, but that doesn't mean she has to like her. So why can't she stop thinking about her? They are two girls who are complete opposites. They're a lover and a fighter, a cheerleader and a rebel, and most importantly: lost and insecure. Will Katie finally admit to herself that the one thing she seemingly hates the most could be the one thing that makes her happy? Or will she realize it after it's too late?

Being Bad by kathleenf4

| COMPLETE | [this is the first draft of my story. so, if there's grammatical mistakes and continuity errors, i apologize and i will be editing in the future.] Lia James was living in a nightmare. It all started one night, when her mother was in a car accident, and never survived the night. She spent the remainder of the summer in mourning. She never ate, or left her bedroom for that matter.

Senior year was supposed to be the best year of her life. She made the Varsity Softball team, and she made tons and tons of new friends. That is, until she comes across Andrew Price: Local bad boy with a well-known reputation, and a heavy bank account. From leather jackets, to secrets, to new relationships, Lia finally comes to terms that her senior year will never be normal. Especially when her best friends and Andrew have a very public hatred towards each other. Will she manage to stay above the drama? Or will she fall into the crossfire of her best friend's feud? ************** STARTED: 8/30/18 ENDED: 1/17/21 RANKS: #6- projectbadboys 2/12/20 #16 - heartstrings 1/17/19

The Best Kind of Betrayal by scout245

It's the first day of June's senior year and everything is already going wrong. Her first boyfriend and supposedly love of her life dumps her for someone else, her heart is broken and feels like it won't ever heal again and her best friend makes her join the most unnecessary club on earth to help her find new friends she most definitely does not need. Still. New chances are for new beginnings, right? Instead of falling into a deep dark pit of self pity (however tempting that may sound), all of this betrayal ends up leading her to the best friends she's ever had and the most exciting school year of her life. Oh - and a whole new fake boyfriend, to get some revenge on that idiot who dumped her. And who knows. Maybe even more.
