I have a lot of secrets. 

Trying out for my new school's football team disguised as a boy is only the beginning. As much as I hate to admit it, I'm developing a disturbing crush on a teammate. 

But that's not my worst secret. 

Nobody here knows I have a twin brother named Pax. Or that he died last year. And that I might be delusional because I see him and hear him, everywhere. 

Or maybe it's the guilt that haunts me. Because I know deep down that my father is the one who killed him. And keeping that secret somehow makes me complicit. 

But my biggest secret of all is that I'm afraid that I'll never be able to forgive my dad for Pax's death. 

Until I can put that ghost to rest, my brother's spirit will be forever lost in the liminal space between this world and the next. And I am lost in this world without him.All Rights Reserved

Love x 2 by user43759793

I've always felt that I was different. When I realised I liked men, I thought oh' this is why. But no I still felt different. I love music and have learnt to play the guitar and play the piano. When I was younger, I had two best friends they were twins and lived just down the road to me. They moved away when I was 10 saying "they'd be back" that was nearly 8 years ago and I'm still waiting. People think I'm weak and I get beaten up on a regular bases. I'm not weak though, I just don't care if they hit me or not. They mean nothing to me, but if they are bullying me they are leaving others alone. I heal quickly anyway. The one thing that gets me is the feeling of being different. Just why do I feel different from every other loser in this school? What happens when Kyle realises, why he feels different? When the twins come back into his life is he ready to embrace that difference? How will his bullies react when he finally fights back?

Reunited by hgmgyj

She had always felt like an out cast, she knew her family hated her but she didn't understand why. maybe it was because they never truly wanted her. her 'father' abused her. her 'mother' didn't care and her siblings didn't care. she was alone desperate for affection but to scared to seek it. it all changed when she accidentally ran into him. He looked like he was going to kill her. But he didn't. She was shocked at how similar he looked to her. it was a coincidence right? a few weeks went by until she saw the boy and when he looked at her it was his turn to be shocked. He tried to deny it but he couldn't so he confronted his parents. and so began the journey of getting their princess back.

POWER BACK by MollyMcBrideLasco

I hate secrets. And I hate drama. But somehow, I stumbled into relationships with two girls, each one hiding something big from me. Bree is beautiful and fit. Captain of the cheerleaders and homecoming queen. She's every guy's dream, every guy but me that is. I didn't really intend to date her, but things just have a way of taking on a life of their own. Then there's Peyton, who drives me crazy. She's a teammate, for God's sake. A football player with a shaved head who disguised herself as a dude to make varsity. She's tough and independent, a smartass with a big chip on her shoulder. But she's more than that--her beauty is wild and untamed. She glows electric, and I'm drawn to that electricity like lightning to a rod. So, I find myself in a bit of a bind--a love triangle with a cheerleader and a football player--and I have a feeling that their secrets just might alter the course of my life forever.

Fake Tales by NotOriginal1997

"I don't know what kind of girl you think I am Greg" I mumbled. I was not the kind of girl who slept with guys on a whim. I wanted him, but not enough to abandon all reason. He took a step toward me, ignored my narrowed eyes and wrapped his arms around me. I wriggled and tried to pull away, but he only held me tighter. His face was impossibly close to me, expression serene to my fury. I could feel him already, pressing into my stomach. Fear shot through me, but the anticipation was equal. "I know exactly what kind of girl you are Maddy... that's the problem" He said simply. His lips crashed into mine, tasting every inch of me. I wanted more than anything to pull away, leave and never mention this again.... but I couldn't do it. The feel of him naked, warm and muscular against me rendered me speechless. I couldn't explain it, but our bodies seemed to fit together somehow and the anger I'd felt just a minute ago. That firey anger at him invading my privacy was gradually merging with the previous lust from last night. Now all I felt was an all consuming need for him to touch me. ....................................................................... Maddy Reynolds' life is a mess. Her best friend's brother Greg has just died and her two best friends Mel and Dom aren't speaking to each other. She has no one to talk to about her confusing feelings towards Greg or why Mel is so distant. Then at the funeral, she becomes friends with Tom Winter by pure chance and he seems to be the only one who understands her. And yet.... even he is keeping secrets from her. The sort of secrets that have the power to change everything. Maddy now has to decide to trust him or find out the truth on her own. Things would have been a whole lot simpler if she'd chosen the latter.

Your Brother and I by SGsongs11

Sometimes people force you to do things that you never wanted to do. Sometimes while doing those things you meet people that you never knew you needed to meet. You start to form friendships with these people and sometimes something special happens with that guy you didn't know you liked. These people start to become your world, but no world can be perfect. That guy you liked may seem incredible but there's something he's just too afraid to tell you. Oh, and your friends? They know what he's hiding too, but they've all decided to keep it from you. Forgetting it can sometimes be your only way to keep going. "You're eyes are shooting stars." "And what do you wish for, mon significative une?" "For you to tell my your deepest secrets." He was quiet for a moment but he didn't leave like I expected him to do. He just simply started to kiss my check while trailing down to my jaw, then neck, then up to my ear. He gripped my lobe between his teeth and right as he let it go he whispered something. "If I tell you my secrets, that gleam in your eye, that you seem to only look at me with, will forever be lost."
