"Not just a flavour, but a way of life."

	When seventeen-year-old Flo Kennedy is forced to up sticks and trade her life in London for a sleepy seaside town on the south coast, she's anything but excited. Walden-on-Sea could win awards for being Britain's dullest town, and with a population consisting almost entirely of over sixties, teenagers are an endangered species.

	Silently struggling with her parents' death and separation from her sister, Flo's convinced she's in for the worst summer of her life.

	But when she meets the guy in the ice cream shop, things start to change. It's not long before she lands herself a job, a new set of friends and maybe even the beginnings of first romance. For the first time in several years, she's happy. But Flo knows all too well that things can't stay perfect forever, and after all, being on top of the world only gives you further to fall.

Melt Me Inside [English] by skyexian

A woman born with a silver spoon yet grew up independent couldn't wish more with her situation other than having her own house and stop her dad from worrying as if she is still a child. However, along the way, this lady crossed paths with a hardworking guy who grew up in a toxic environment that changed her world's point of view. As they journeyed further, slowly their cold, icy hearts melted into a sweet liquid of happiness. "Here's your ice cream." Maricar gave the guy her treat to him. "Thanks." The guy quickly bit a good amount of still-freezing sweet concoction of happiness. It was always his way to eat ice creams ever since he was a kid. Pierre noticed the young lady looking at his mouth with a disgusted face. "Is there something wrong?" "Does that hurt your teeth?" she asked with worry. She's the licking type of person when it comes to eating ice cream. She have sensitive teeth as her reason. "Oh, it's bearable. I'm after the feeling that it melts inside my mouth. I used to do this when I was a kid. My mom would buy me a small dirty ice cream when a vendor passes by our house. And that's one of my happiness that I still do today." "Why? What's the feeling?" Maricar asked for further details. Pierre grinned and looked at the ice cream cone. "I would think that this ice cream represents my time. I would eat some and let it melt inside instead of dripping it to waste. Just like today, I don't want to waste any minute and consume everything." Maricar suddenly spoke after a moment of silence. "Pierre. Do you mind if I took a bite of yours?" *** Language: English Rating: 16+ All Rights Reserved

'I kept staring that photograph for a minute, maybe 10 seconds. He took something out of his jeans pocket. "I forgot to give this to you yesterday." He was holding a little ice cream cone made of plastic, small and defenseless. I stopped breathing and grabbed it carefully from his muscular hand. At once, the ice cream felt heavier than it was supposed to be, growing bigger and bigger each second until we both could admire a normal-sized cone spilling vanilla flavor. Oliver smirked, and slowly approached his beautiful face from mine; his lips touched my ear. A shock came spreading electricity and I had to hold myself from fainting. "See, Angel..? In your hands, toys are more than toys." He whispered. I melted and died 174 times that moment. And without other words, my piece of planet turned and disappeared through a big door made of sadness and glass. Oliver Snowfields was gone.' ••• 💬"Toys are to Play is amazing, it is descriptive and it gives you a huge wave of emotions when you read it.

However, this time when she goes back, things are a little more interesting than they were before. This time, she meets the gorgeous Chester Preston. When they first meet, Aria wants nothing to do with the arrogant, rude, seaside boy who refers to her as the 'city girl'. But slowly, her hate for him turns into something else. Is there love in the air? Or is that just the smell of Chester's car leaking again?
