Selfish Appetite is a raw exploration of love, loss, and the complexities of human connection. At its heart, it's a story about grief, abuse, addiction, and the healing power of friendship. It's about the chosen family your friends can become, if you let them. It's a tribute to the irreplaceable love and wisdom of grandparents, and ultimately, a book about how love shapes us-mind, body, and soul.

It delves into the realities of substance abuse, domestic violence, and the tangled web of love triangles. I wanted to create a book so realistic it frustrates readers, where there's no escape from the truths of life. The kind of story that keeps readers on edge, breathless with worry and anticipation for the characters they've grown to love.

Love can be a wicked, transformative force-a truth Sloan and Luke come to know all too well in Selfish Appetite. Love can make us act in strange, unexplainable ways. It defies convention, refuses to be defined, and no bond is ever the same as another.

Safe Haven || mgc by chocolatemilkparty-

"What's that?" The boy quickly brought his hand to the girl's cheek, softly brushing over the purple skin, determined to not hurt her. But she still winced slightly under his touch. "Nothing." Her voice sounded broken and scared when she pulled away quickly. She didn't want to face him like that. The boy's expression softened immediately, his eyes full of worry. "Was it him?" "I tripped and fell down the stairs." "Why don't you leave him?" When she looked at her best friend, with so much sadness and concern, paired with anger for the boy who caused her all this pain, in his eyes, she felt her heart shatter. "I love him." He shook his head slowly. "No, you don't. You love the idea of him."

Silence (5sos ot4) by kaila_aaa

He was silent. He didn't like talking. Being abused could do that to a person. And having a lisp and a stutter didn't help. He hadn't said a word in so long, but no one cared. Everything was better in a world where he didn't talk. He probably could've lived like this until the day he finally decided to kill himself. Until he meets three people who decide to change that... *This is a Trigger Warning to be placed on most chapters. Please do not read if you think you may be affected/hurt by anything tagged.

Start All Over × Luke Hemmings by cuddlinghemmings

New Country. New School. New Friends. New Life. New Beginning. Fresh Start. Clean Slate. Start Over. Have you ever wanted to move away and start all over again? That’s all Vanessa has ever wanted. She wants to move away from the life she has grown to hate and start her life all over again. Bullies. Abuse. Depression. Self-Hatred. Weak. Useless. Pathetic. Lost. Feeling unwanted and under-appreciated aren’t new feelings for young Vanessa Bell, living in constant fear and worry isn’t either. It can take just a few words to bring someone’s self-esteem plummeting for the ground and add a few bruises here and there and all self-worth will be lost. Feeling numb from all the pain is usually a good thing but when you’ve been hurt so much to the point where you don’t feel anything anymore. You’ll often find yourself asking “What is the point?” or “Why do I even bother?” Maybe Vanessa will find her way, maybe in a place called Sydney, maybe with the help of a boy named Luke. When Vanessa chooses to “Start All Over” maybe she’ll find it’s the best decision she’s ever made. {Warning: Will contain triggering thoughts and action and involves sensitive topics like depression, death, suicide and abuse} **This is very poorly written because when I wrote it I was 13 so please read knowing that I was a very dumb 13 year-old or read later when I've finished rewriting which is a slow process but I'm getting there, sorry** UNDERGOING EDITING COPYRIGHT © 2012-2013 CUDDLINGHEMMINGS

My roommate Luke by nashlycam23

You and Luke Hemmings have been best friends ever since you both were in pre-K. You and Luke finally have enough money to both rent a house together. You and Luke don't have any feelings for each other, so it seems. You both catch yourselves wondering of you both actually like each other but you always doubt yourselves.

Youngblood by misshx24

When I face him again, Ashton is smiling. He leans back slowly in his seat, resting his folded hands on his stomach. "This is gonna be fun." I narrow my eyes at him. "What's gonna be fun?" "Winning you over." I have to bite back the vomit that fights to exit through my mouth. "Excuse me?" "It's a challenge now." "Nobody challenged you to anything." "I have challenged myself." "Well, that sounds like a personal problem." I grit my teeth. "I am not your challenge." Ashton just smiles at me. "We'll see about that." Disclaimer: -This story is a work of fiction. Some people are real, but situations are entirely mine and made up. -I took a little bit of liberty as far as how situations that might have happened unfold. I did tons of research, but the plot calls for some changes. Hope you don't mind! -Mature for frequent swearing and sexual themes -**Trigger warning** there is a later chapter that deals with mature themes (sexual assault). If you feel the need, please skip the chapter, which will have an additional warning at the top of it.

Wildflower by Sprinting_Ginger

The universe has a funny way of making strangers appear in your life repeatedly when it's time for them to become a piece to your story. For Calum this next piece seems a little bit dangerous, extremely wild and exciting, and set to be larger than many that have come before. He's just hoping to survive her... *** Calum Hood Fanfiction **Rated M for language, smut, and the possible mention of blood and death.**

Worthless || Hemmings by CliffordCalls

(its now june 2018, i wrote this like a year and a half/two years ago. my life has changed and so have my perspective on writing this kinda shit. so be warned of cringyness, also go buy & stream Youngblood now!) worth·less ˈwərTHləs/ adjective 1. having no real value or use."that promise is worthless" 2. synonyms: Valueless  •(of a person) having no good qualities; deserving contempt. Worthless. That's what they told her she was every day of her life. From her family mostly. Sometimes her friends. Especially from him. Noelle Robberts was a girl In small town Goolwa, South Australia. Her family constantly told her she was a mistake and no one cared about her. She didn't listen to them, kept her head up high and ignored the shit they gave her. Luke on the other hand, got told the complete opposite. His parents were loving and caring and treated him like he was a king. He loved every second of it. He knew he was good looking, and could get anything or anyone he wanted. He was in a secret band, played guitar and listened to rock music. He on the outside was some rich, snooty asshole. But on the inside was so much more. When the two meet in am unexpected way, the tables turn. Cover By: Ella-Vader   All Rights Reserved @AshWritings

She had lots of friends, and even a boyfriend. But people love to come and mess things up.. Yeah, they sure do.

I now as an adult understand that the contents of this book are absolutely not okay or legal in any sense. But- IF you if you get past the first chunk of chapters, it takes an unexpected turn.

I ran to her and grabbed her before she could leave. I took her face into my hands and I kissed her, hard. My mouth crashes onto hers in a searing display of passion and I felt it in every bone in my body. I didn't have the words, so I needed to show her that I wanted her. I wanted all of her so much it hurt. She resisted at first, her anger and frustration wouldn't let her kiss me back. But I held on, my tongue invaded her mouth with a desperate need that only she could cure. And then she gave in. She gave into my longing and need for her. She ran her delicate fingers through my hair as I grabbed fistfuls of hers. We were lost in our moment, no one else mattered around us".

The Perfect Disguise by penguinsimagines

So, my parents are high-ed rich business woman and business man who runs one of the most successful firm in the world; and there goes Bianca, the miss popular at school who happened to be my sister. What a family! Pretty perfect, right? Think again. Coping up after waking up from a coma and finding out I lost someone I love is not easy especially when you feel like dying. I got three friends - one is abnormally stupid but sweet and his name is Luke; the other one's a genius who dyes his hair very often I have to remind him that he'll go bald by the age of 30 and his name is Michael; and the last one is someone who thinks he's invisible to the eyes of everyone that I had to remind him that I'm always here for him and ended up caring for me too much and his name is Calum. But, that's not it. Cause this jock guy at school is bugging me and I, well, kinda hate him and kinda like him all at the same time. Something about him tells me that I knew him since forever which is crazy cause he just moved here a couple of years ago. Let's see where my story would go. ----------------------------------------- As of February 13, 2022 #8 in 5SOSIMAGINE #5 in SOUNDSGOODFEELSGOOD #99 in LUKEHEMMINGIMAGINE #6 in ASHTONIRWINIMAGINE #19 in 5SECONDSOFSUMMERIMAGINE #14 in CALUMHOODIMAGINE #8 in MICHAELCLIFFORDIMAGINE #22 in 5SECONDSOFSUMMERPREFERENCES #58 in ONEDIRECTIONIMAGINE As of December 2024 #15 in ASHTONIRWINIMAGINE #10 in 5SECONDSOFSUMMERPREFERENCE #23 in 5SOSPREFERENCE As of February 2025: #8 in 5SECONDSOFSUMMERPREFERENCE VOTE.
