Introduction:   Was this what life had really come to?  Most people look forward to turning eighteen, but what If there is nothing to look forward to?  Julie Fescue didn’t get the car of her dreams, or even a fraction of that. When she turned eighteen and graduated high school, she got her special, reserved spot at the “Pig sty”, a bar in Minneapolis, Minnesota.  She wasn’t partying at clubs like the normal eighteen year old, she was working at one.  She doesn’t have parents to get her out of this hell either, just a best friend to help her live through it, who helped her get this much needed job.  Where is this so called graduation gift?      



Do friends really have your back when you need them? Have you ever really come to realize that maybe they’re not friends at all?  Rich, popular, private school taught Aaron Briar doesn’t really trust the people who are his so called friends. This isn’t the worst of his problems though.  What if you live without really living, just wandering this earth till something good in your life happens , if that will ever come. Beyond all that, his love life isn’t dead, because it had never really been alive .He has never had a girl fall “in love” with him for all the right reason.  When it comes down to the moment, who can you trust?All Rights Reserved

REVISED:The Boy With A Touch Of Cancer (BxB) by Jeanne_Wolf

"Leo pinned me against the wall with his hips. His hands gently gripped my wrists, keeping my arms above my head against the cool brick behind me. His quicksilver eyes were filled with such an intense, carnal desire I couldn't even look into them, so I looked over his shoulder. I saw a few kids from the group standing out by their cars who would easily be able to see what we were doing...or at least what Leo was doing to me. At that moment, my mind started wandering to all the things that I could be doing to him right now...but I stopped that train of thought immediately, as it started heading to all the wrong places... All the dirty places. I glanced back at Leo. His gaze was still as intense as it was before. He smirked at me and said confidently, "You can't ignore me forever, Ethan. You're eventually gonna fall for my charms..." Ethan Carter was focused on 2 things. 1. School (obviously) and 2. Getting over ex (it's proving to be, harder than he thought), but now he has to add dying to that list, and suddenly having feelings for a boy. Leo Malone makes Ethan feel things he's never felt for another guy. Leo's sweet, patient, and understanding...the only problem is, he's a guy. Ethan tries to ignore the fact that his heart flutters every time he sees Leo, or that he can't ever stop thinking about him, but if having cancer has taught him one thing, it's that you have to live in the present, as you may not have a future.

❝ 𝗗𝗢𝗡𝗧 𝗟𝗘𝗧 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗙𝗔𝗧𝗛𝗘𝗥 𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗕𝗔𝗧 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗚𝗜𝗙𝗧𝗦 ❞ 𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐂𝐇 - he was her therapist. ✿ Esther Collins' hoodie became her own home. With a dead mother and an alcoholic father who refused to pay the bills, she did everything she could to make a life for herself, and she was only 16 years old. The only thing she wanted was to get the hell out of Shermer, Illinois, so for the most part, she stayed out of trouble and kept her grades up as high as she could. Pursuing an art career was her dream, and she was destined to get far in order to obtain it. Andrew Clark was one of those nice-popular stereotypes. He was a friendly face, and quite frankly did not care about who he was or wasn't allowed to associate with. Being an aspiring therapist and future D1 athlete, he craved for his father's approval. Andrew was a kind human being, and he was very susceptive when it came down to the ideals surrounding mental health. His father resented him for that, which made that aspiration so out of reach that he did anything he could to grasp it, even if it involved harming himself in the process. Esther wasn't one for talking about her feelings, but Andrew's genuine persona made it so much easier to do so. A Saturday detention in March of 1984 had turned into a glorified therapy session, and ultimately, they realized how their fellow peers cope, react, and engage, and they simply became more open to emotional sensitivity. Despite what it may seem, everyone has a lot going on deep down, and judging them for it is pointless. Both Esther and Andrew knew that now, and they were beyond grateful that they were able to experience this fact together. 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗙𝗔𝗦𝗧 𝗖𝗟𝗨𝗕 𝗙𝗔𝗡𝗙𝗜𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 @80s90swriting © 2020 rewritten 2024

Altered by LuellaOpal

Have you ever met someone who alters the course of your life? For good or for bad, they've come in, given and taken, and then- BOOM! Your life was never the same. There's always a change, an altering of reality. When you meet those people, the reality that you've known your whole life is suddenly gone and a new one has taken its place. When those moments happen, there's no going back. You can try to return to the way things were but nothing, and I mean nothing, can take you back to exactly how it was. That's what happened to us. I think that's why we're still trying so desperately to get back to some sort of normalcy. Four years later and we're still on the ground, crawling, in search of the happiness that was lost that June. Summers will never be the same. Midnight walks through my neighborhood will never be the same. Field parties with bonfires and loud music will never be the same. I still don't know why you left and what lead you to the decision you made. What I do know is that we're here. We're alive and we're pushing forward to the future. A future that you're not a part of. But in some ways, I'm glad you're not a part of it. I just wish it wasn't like this. *** TRIGGER WARNING*** SA, abuse, suicide, substance abuse, and mental illness. This is a complete story that is much like life; fast, full of surprises, and not always how we want it to be. This has been a project of mine for over three years. It was self-published on Amazon, but after some issues in publication, I decided to just upload it on here. I hope you fall in love with these characters like I have. The friends in this story are trying to make names for themselves, figure out who they are, who they can trust, how to love, and how to separate themselves from a restrictive community. As in any coming of age story, they will experience growing pains... but will they survive them before its too late? PLEASE READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS.

The Jock Neighbor by mis_chancla5

Briar Madison If someone asked you to point out the sweetest person you knew, anyone would point in the direction of Briar, but what people don't know is how hard things are for her. Especially because of the gorgeous jock who lives next to her. 4 years they have lived side by side throughout the beginning of high school and her crush on him has yet to fade. It's their last year, anything can happen, right? Luke Verlice He is a football jock, amazing at what he does and trying to get a scholarship now that he's in his senior year. But one thing never leaves his mind, and it's that sweet girl he's lived next to all these years. 4 years and he has done nothing but watch from afar, too afraid to go up to her. Maybe this time will change. What will time do to this couple? Will they finally take charge on their feelings?

His Obsession by Scorpioweeknd

IN THE PROCESS OF EDITING! BUT FEEL FREE TO KEEP READING!!! I'm the type of girl that every other teenage girl on the planet strives to be. Pretty, popular and rich. And I can't forget to mention how I was wanted by all the boys and men in my small hometown in Iowa. This way the way to live. It all changed after my birthday. I started realizing at the last possible minute that it wasn't for the best. Because if everybody wants you, someone's gonna get you.

'Unforeseen' by DrewJoss

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. You will seek Me and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart." (Jeremiah 29:11-13 niv) ******** Her main list of standards before saying yes to a man are: • True believer of God/ man of God. • Has a good relationship with God. • Love God with everything he has. • Ask her hands from her parents before the courting. • And so on... At the age of twenty-eight, Lois is considered an old maid by her neighbors, friends, and some relatives. Though she enjoys her singleness, sometimes pressure puts her to think, is she willing to lower her standards just to be married? People said her standards are too high and nobody will ever reach there, especially in this time of the 21st century. Now come a suitor that promised to do everything to make her happy if just given a chance but as she looked closely he is the total opposite of the man she is looking for. Is he worthy for the chance? ••••••••••••••• Doctor Andro Leo Mercado-Martinez is; a former professional violinist of his country's orchestra symphony, a successful professor at one of the top Universities in the United States, a researcher with many publications, young and eligible but doesn't care about the word marriage. For him, one scar is enough for a man to learn his lesson in the matter of the heart. What he has is enough for him to rejoice. He has God that loves him more than anybody, family that adores him, and students that respect him. What more he needs? But one message is destined to change his life forever. Now, the question is: Is it for good? # baseonaTRUE STORY ***some attachments are credited to its rightful owner.

Once Upon A Bus Ride by iamtheeamani

Morgan Hall is your average teenager. That is if you consider having a billionaire CEO of a world renowned company as a dad and a fashion designer of one of the most famous lines in the world as a mother average. Let's not leave out her singer/actress of a sister who's taking the world by storm. Morgan was no doubt born with a giant silver spoon in her mouth, but her life isn't always as perfect as it seems. Aaron Smith, quiet and reserved, admired my many for his good looks. He doesn't seem to associate himself with many people. Which is why it's so strange when he finds himself becoming friends with the rich, little, daddy's girl...at least that's what he thinks of her. Fate and chance are at work when they cross paths one afternoon on a bus. Throw in crazy lives and secret identities, and you get one hell of a ride on the road to self discovery. What Morgan doesn't know is that one stubborn move could land her a new friend, and possibly even more. ~~~~~ "It's amazing...magical even, how hearing one song can take you back to a single moment or a series of them, just so you can live it all over again," he said. "I think that's the best part about music. It's like time travel you know? Going back to the past, or sometimes even visualizing the future...what we could be." "What about the sad moments?" I asked softly. "Nobody wants to re-live those." "Maybe not, but that's the entirety of it," he answered, raising his hand to brush away the hair from my face before tucking it behind my ear. "There's always good in the bad, and bad in the good. Balance." His fingers trailed down my arm, sending shock waves through me. "Can I tell you something?" I asked softly. The corner of his lips curved upwards in a small smile. "You can tell me anything."

Unlasting by Giamini2000

Lost to the true definition of love, Brie meets Adrian, a man daring enough to love her though he knows it may not end well. She falls hard for him, her reality of love far greater than her fantasies, but when a familiar pain resurfaces in paradise, and she feels like she may be walking down memory lane, will she have it in her to fight? Or is the fear of going through anything that resembles her childhood greater than her dream to finally find love? Love meets reality in this epic novel. *** "Excuse me, you seem lost in thought. Did you want to buy something or do I need to direct you home again?" "What?" She laughs, "It was a joke, Jeez. The last time you were in here you seemed like you had a sense of humor. Where'd that go?" "I have this neighbor who basically sucks the life and humor out of people. Unfortunately, I am a recent victim." "I know how that feels, trust me. I have one in my life too." "Anyway, what can I do for you Mr. ..." "Please call me Adrian." "Okay Adrian, what can I do for you today?" "Actually, I was passing by, and I thought I should say thank you for the other day." "That's nice, but you didn't have to. I didn't really do anything a human being wouldn't." "Hey, don't sell yourself short. You did a lot for me. If you didn't save my ass, I may have been a missing person by now, or worse that guy on the news they keep saying is nowhere to be found." "How can I argue when you mentioned the guy on the news. The news never lies, and I'm sure you don't either. You're right, I should be thanked for saving a life." "Not just A life, but many lives. Think of my poor mother and my friends and family. How would they live without me, huh?" "You're right, I saved a generation that day." We're both laughing very hard and it feels just right. Talking to her was easy.
