Dear Diary,
I was sixteen years old when life as I knew it, turned a one-eighty.
I was sixteen years old when I met him.
With his curly brown hair, his harsh, cold eyes, people thought he was bad news, but I knew he wasn't that - at least he wasn't just that. He was indescribable. All the words in all the languages of the world couldn't possibly describe all that he was. So I chose that one word that made sense to me when someone asked me to describe him - indescribable.
Wherever he went, he brought with him an air of trouble and something so mysterious that I couldn't help be curious.
He taught me to love, to live and to laugh. He taught me who my friends were, and most importantly who weren't. He made me see the world through a new pair of eyes - his.
His broken heart was mine to love. And I loved it with all of mine.
Until I couldn't love him at all.
One mistake, one secret, one lie cost us everything. And the most painful part of it all was, he didn't seem to regret it at all.
I'm Adeline Kingsley and this is my story.

Childhood Sweethearts
#1 Teen Fiction | #1 Young Adult | #1 Romance "We all need someone to drive us mad." - The Wombats. He stared arrogantly down at me, a smirk plastered across his face. I sneered up at him with distaste, wanting to wrap my fingers around his neck and strangle that smirk off of him. He brushed my golden hair from my face, his long, slender fingers sparking electricity in my skin, making my knees wobble together. "Will you ever, forgive me?" he whispered huskily, his eyes intently staring into mine. His face was only mere inches from me. I just needed to reach out a little further to kiss him... "Yeah. Over my dead body." I snapped, before throwing my arms out forcefully, shoving my hands into his chest, pushing him from me. -*-*-*- He, is Carter Williams. I, am Lacey Adams.

The loving relationship we shared, was severed and torn apart. I couldn't hardly stand to look at him any more, without spitting fire that is. Every day is torture being around him.

Leaving me to stay with Carter and his parents, who are never home. We would be alone. In one house. Under the same roof. If I was insane before, I have no idea what I am now. © 2016 by LaurenJ22.

In which I fall in love with my brother's best friend. ***** "Don't pretend like you don't feel anything." His voice is low, sending shivers down my spine. "What do you mean?" "You know damn well what I mean." "I don't know what you're talking about." I pretend to ignore him, flipping some pages in my book. "Come on. I have all these assignments waiting. Aren't you supposed to teach me tonight?" "It depends on what you want me to teach."

Becoming, Before Belonging
My name is Evelyn, and I've always been mesmerised by stories- I can't deny that. Nor can I deny that maybe, just maybe, I prefer William over every other boy I've met. But does that mean we're meant to be? Can there ever be a future 'us', or will family secrets get in the way? Will I ever truly understand what I want in life- and is it really love? This is my story. And I've found that I'm finally ready to share it.
Hidden
Hide who you are so they can't see your vulnerable side. Hide your beauty so you know how they act when you have flaws. "I hate it!" I hate this so much. I get up everyday, and it's the same nonsense. I go through it all. Wake up, go to the hell hole. Get bullied, cry. And come home wishing I could show them who I really am. What I really look like. "But you can't, Adeline. And you know that." The only person I have to talk to is myself, Sad. I know. ❀⊱┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄⊰❀ "Let me go, Easton." "Why won't you let me in?" He yells back to me, tighten his hold on my arms. "I said to let me go." "Tell me why first!" I sigh in defeat, shaking out of his grasp. "You're a bully, Easton. And you know it. You only want me when we're alone." "Why do you think that, Addy? Let me know." "I see it everyday." I shrug, walking away from him. Pausing in my tracks, I laugh silently to myself before looking back to him. Your vulnerability shows, Adeline. No matter what, you'll always be you. I talk about not showing but yet I'm the same either way. At home: I'm shy, but I'm in my own skin. At school: also shy, but I don't show what I have to offer. "Adeline-" Easton reaches out for me and I brush him off. "I've said it before. You're a very fake person, Easton. The fakest of them all."Complete
