Logan
*TW* Contains topics and scenes of sexual assault, self-harm, abuse.* "You know you loved every second of it," I can feel the tears welling up as well as the anger building up within me. I stare at him for a while before I have to turn away from his hungry gaze. "Look I just came here to tell you that I forgive you for what you did back in Cali and I'll take you back," "You forgive me?" I yell. "I did nothing to you. You raped me! You fucking raped me! You have no right to come here and tell me that. You. Forgive. Me. You traumatized me. What you did to me tore me up inside and was eating away at me until I tried to kill myself. And when I told people they didn't believe me. I had to listen to so many people talk about how great a guy you were and how I clearly just regretted sleeping with you. You are a monster. You made me hate myself for something that was never my fault. You have caused me so much pain and suffering," I pause to take a deep breath. "So you don't get to come here to my school and tell me you forgive me. You don't get to make me feel bad about coming forward. The only thing I regret is ever thinking you were a good person." _____________________________________________ Logan Young is a 16-year-old girl about to start her senior year in a brand new town.

Matthew Amoré moves to Venice Italy to find himself thrown into a spiraling relationship with a blonde kid that saves him from bullies. All the while battling depression, his feelings, and a new job, Matthew also has to tackle one big object...telling his boyfriends homophobic father that they are in a relationship. The outcome of it could either end with the happy ending that he's always wanted or the game over that he never wanted to have to experience. (A/N) Alright guys, so I started writing this when I was about 14 years old, so basically most of the chapters are pretty standard for a 14 year old. But, I took a break from writing for a while to work on my skills. I'm 17 now and I have improved a lot and I think that shows in the final three chapters of this story. Please feel free to read this if you want!!!Complete

What started as awkward glances turns into a bond that neither girl expected, one that heals the silent corners of both their hearts.
