Through the glass windows, I could see water gushing out of the vents at
high velocity, filling the building with gallons of chlorine filled water.

I looked down at the pushchair, and back inside. What do I do?
Violet!
Mum! Dad!

My twins, or my daughter?
How was I supposed to choose?
How could I pick one, or two children over another?
Would I be able to save my daughter? Would Violet get out of there?

Tears filled my eyes as I watched the horror before me.
I could see people fighting for their lives, children drowning in the deep
water filling the room up. It was all happening so quickly.

"Violet!" I began screaming, gripping the handles of the double
pushchair, as the tears fell in torrents down my face.

Water started bubbling up through the grates across the pavement on which I
stood. There was so much water inside the underground building that it was
overflowing into the street!

Oh god, Violet.
Oh my baby.
She can't die. She can't.

I was in shock.
My life was falling apart right before my eyes and I had no control over
it.
I couldn't leave Dex and Willow, but I needed to save Violet.
I was at a crossroads, feeling so guilty for having to pick the twins over
Violet. I was forced to make a decision I didn't want to make.

You are never supposed to pick one child over another, but that's what I've had
to do.
I've been forced to stand out here and watch as people drown inside that
building along with my precious daughter.

"If I risk it all, could you break my fall? How do I live? How do I breathe? When your not here i'm sufficated. I wanna feel love, run through my blood. Tell me is this where I give it all up? For you, I have to risk it all, Cuz the Writing's on the Walls." This is a story about a boy and a girl. She loves him, and he want's her dead. But he vowed to keep her safe..But how can he keep such a dangerous vow? *EXCERPT FROM BOOK BELOW* "Our story is like the movies. The movies with the happy endings?" I yelled as he got out of the car. "No! Our ending is nothing like those movies Vana. Our story is the both of us risking it all and then ending up right next to Kyle." He said and sighed. And he was right. Our ending is that one fucked up movie that no on wants to go see. "SO YOU AREN'T WILLING TO RISK IT ALL!?! I yelled louder as the rain came pouring down. He turned on his heal and stomped twords me pulling me close to him leaveing no space between us. His lips came crashing down on mine making the butterflies in my stomach errupt with pleaseure. He pulled away and sighed as did I. He grabbed my hand and ran his thumb over the knuckle of my thumb over my tattoo thanks to his stupid game of dare or dare. "Look at the perspective of things Vana. You might see a smily face but I don't. I see a sad face. You don't want my happy ending. Trust me." He said and sighed again. "I love you so much Vana." He said and kissed the top of my head and then walked back over to his house. But he didn't really love me. If he did he would be willing to risk it all just like I am. But I am left just like Kyle had suspected. Alone and heart broken in the rain. Because I was always the one willing to risk it all. For him.

Two broken souls in the midst of a crazy world. Two souls running away from their past. There was no light at the end of the tunnel. The tunnel was cracking, slowly closing in. When these two connect, as if they were set on the same path, light creeps in through the cracks, and for or a moment, the tunnel seems to have a way out, but what if it collapses before they make it? - "You saved my life." The words come out as a whisper, I've been dying to say that. I thank god every day that he came into my life when he did. "Fuck Vivian, you don't know how much I needed you." I tear up just a little as he speaks, I don't know the last time I cried happy tears. I bring my hands up to cup his cheeks, resting my forehead against his. "No matter how much I push, I don't mean it. Please don't give up on me." My words seem to relieve him in some way as I feel his shoulders relax. "Even when I'm gone, I'll be by your side, forever." He brings his hand, sticking his pinky out. "pinky promise."I wrap mine around his, placing a kiss on his lips. Warning before you read!! This is my first book! This book will contain topics of SA, eating disorders, and mature content, if any of these things may bother you in anyway, please scroll! I hope when I finish this book I can public a clean version, with a different perspective leaving out these topics, but for now, this is how i've envisioned this story to go! Enjoy -Ash🌸
Fighting for Rose by whitetigerpaw
43 parts Complete Mature
-Blake- Rose stands not too far in front of the ring looking at me, her face is pale and my gut twists in ways it never has. She shouldn't be here, why the hell is she here? My hands drop to my side, the victorious feeling once flowing through me is replaced with one of dread. She saw me fighting. ------- -Rose- "Alright. Time for you to go." He says. I feel the pull on my arm as he tries to take me away but my feet feel like they are glued to the ground as I continue to look at Blake. He has a little smirk on his face as he looks over the crowd. A look so completely different than any of the ones I saw the other day. Then our eyes meet, and his smirk drops. He drops his hands that were just held high in victory and looks at me like he's seeing a ghost. The guard pulls harder on my arm and I go flying back into his chest. "Listen here, I don't want to manhandle you, so do as I fucking say. Move." He growls as he pushes me into the crowd of celebrating people. I do what he says and start walking towards the exit, but I look over my shoulder one last time before I'm too far in the crowd to see anything. Blake's hands are fisted by his side and his face is red with anger, his eyes are focused on the hands that are on me pushing me away from him. ----- I am the original owner of this book, please do not copy. Strong language and themes of abuse, mental illness and violence.

Never in my life had I imagined that I would be kidnapped. For me, It was going to be just another weekend, but I guess not. ______________________________________________________ " NO PLEASE NO I AM SORRY PLEASE NO I WILL NEVER DISOBEY YOU EVER AGAIN PLEASE NO AHHH " " I AM SORRY PLEASE I WILL DO AS YOU SAY I PROMISE STOP IT PL- AHHH N- AHH PL- AHHH " " IT'S HURTING NO DON'T! NO! REMOVE IT PLEASE!! AHHH I DID AS YOU ASKED ME TOO YO- AHHHHH " I pleaded, begged, cried, but nothing worked in front of them. They are not human; They are monsters, my monsters who never miss a single opportunity to remind me who they are. _______________________________________________________ I thought They would stop If I resist, I thought They would give up If I say No, I thought They would leave me alone If I didn't let them have their way. But I was wrong. They will never stop, never give up, never leave me alone, not until they have me, my body, my mind, my soul, but even if they had it all, I doubt they will let me go. It's like I am his new favorite game which he loves playing because he knows he will always win. It's like I am his new building block, which he loves building only to destroy a second later. It's like I am his new pet which he loves giving punishment to if disobeyed. _____________________________________________________ I think this story, my story will end only with my death ( Tear dropped) ____________________________________________________ Don't trust the book by its cover, Go on, give it a try who knows maybe in the end you fall in love with the book?

I Fell in Love with a Bad Boy by Beautiful_Tragedy8
33 parts Complete
CRINGE WARNING! First book I ever wrote on here!! -- "Sometimes the person who you are willing to take a bullet for is the person behind the gun." I stood peering over the cold lifeless body that lay before my eyes. I had always thought of death the enemy, but right now, I blessed it upon the person who is now at peace. Sometimes you don't need to be the smartest, or the fastest, but you do need to be wisest. They say the blood runs deeper than water, and I believe it, because even though the people that we love can turn on us and begin to hate us, they are only human, meaning that soon they will begin to see how short life really is and how it is not to be wasted. People who seem perfect and they look like they have no floors'; they are the people who are suffering, like I was. But I found my savior in the most uncommon place. He was able to look through my mask, he saw the cracks, and tried to fix the broken girl that hid away deep inside the girl who only wanted to be seen as 'fine'. I slowly began to find comfort and safety in him, and I did the same to him. We were two broken people becoming whole. Someone once said when you pass, if you can count your true friends on one hand you are beyond lucky, and I even though I did not like the person that lay before me, I know that he once had true friends, including me. I'm a 17 year old girl who has suffered more than any other, beginning to believe that 'Hope' was just another word the people throw around. Until I fell in love with a badboy.

DIABOLIC SERIES 3 All my life I've lost my breath. It would happen over the simplest things, if I stretched too high to catch a ball, lifted something for too long, if I sneezed, if I talked. Other times I would loose my breath because I had a panic attack, or was yelling or being yelled at, if I was exerting myself on a physical level. Having the wind knocked out of me is a familiar feeling. But I didn't truly know what it felt like to loose the air in my lungs, loose the feeling that has kept my alive my entire life. I didn't loose it when I fell in love, I didn't loose it when I found out one drunken night with the girl I love would mean a baby, I didn't loose it when I found out that I'd actually be a father. No, I lost that when she told me that she doesn't love me. When she spit in my face how much she can't stand me, how I've ruined her life, that she doesn't want me in any aspect. I'm not her 'type' whatever that means, seeing as she quite willingly had sex with me. Her saying this made this ugly, lonely and depressing thought hit my diaphragm. Violet Thompson is carrying my child. And she despises me for it. The way I came to this conclusion was simple, Nonnie- -that's what I call her, since her middle name's Noel and I wanted something to call her that if I shouted it in the middle of a crowd, only she would turn to and know it's me- -told me that all she wants is someone there. A father for her baby, a physical presence. Not a mind, personality. Not a person. A body. A shell. I've been a dead man walking. And I was that shell, was just a body... until I found him.

Violet Balenciaga:•: She just found the courage to leave her toxic, abusive relationship. The one time she gave love a chance after the love of her life leaving her she ends up alone and pregnant, with twins. Alessandro Esposito:•: He shut down since the death of his father. Since he left the love of his life to take over the mafia his brother turned down. He's the shell of the person he used to be, he feels he's lost himself forever. 🌹✨🌺 "You're so beautiful." He grins leaning down to peck my lips. "You're glowing with happiness. You have no idea how honored I feel to be able to put that smile on your face." I feel my cheeks heat at the compliment as I melt into the mattress. "Your smile was the first thing I fell in love with. Then it was your eyes and your laugh." Him staring down at me with such intensity has my heart beating wildly against my rib cage. His hands gently cup my face, "I never fell out of love you with you, Violet, but everyday I can't help but fall all over again." 🌹✨🌺 "Baby talk to me." Aless snaps me out of my thoughts as he slowly inches closer to me. His arms hesitantly grab my face and wipe away my tears. "Bad dream." I whisper sniffling. "He had me." My heart breaks just thinking about it. "And he hurt them." The way his eyes darken with rage show me he knows who I'm taking about. He looks down to my stomach, his eyes soften as he lays two kisses in the middle. "I'm going to kill him." His words should scare me, instead they make me feel protected.
