It's the summer of 1981. "Taps" is in theatres; "The Best of Times" by Styx is climbing the charts and Charles and Di are about to walk down the aisle. Meanwhile 15-year-old Wendy Riley is plotting her grand escape from Averagehood, a bedroom she shares with her five-year-old brother and a daily detention schedule for being a little too generous with her answers to a fateful History 10 quiz. 

In a story that is one part coming of age on the stage, one part romance warmed over a Dungeons & Dragons campaign, and two parts homage to Eighties fashion, music and movies, Wendy begins to see her family, friends and foils for who they really are. "The Pearl Inside of Everything" is an unforgettable collection of funny, fierce and foibled characters that celebrates the best of the days when shoulder pads were big, hair was bigger and all you needed to get a dream off the ground was a boost of E.L.O. and a couple of beagles who know how to tangle.

"What're are you doing?" I asked terrified. He took a strand of my hair, and started playing with it while looking at me, "beautiful, Why do you have to be so beautiful?" He asked himself, he is drunk as fuck. I gulped, "I don't know, I guess I was born that way." I chuckled nervously. He chuckled, shaking his head. We stared at each other for what felt like forever, "I'm afraid." He confessed. I looked at him confusedly, "of what?" I asked softly. It was moments of silence, "I'm afraid of losing you. Again." Some friendships are meant to be broken, but Sapphire Jones doesn't agree with that shit. She tries her best to become friends again with her childhood ex friend, Elliot Brown.

Viciously in Love by i_am_michaela

Check out my Instagram page: gold_n_dark for aesthetics and songs for the chapters. One in a million. The chances of them meeting were one in a million. And yet... They met. And more came. Neither of them met love until now. Each one had different reasons. One was too stubborn, arrogant, heartless and careless to want love; the other one was too kind, happy, hopefull, optimist and dreamy to see the love around her. Maybe that's why they attracted each other. Because they completed each other. The good - her - and the bad - him. But not quite... She could also be strubborn, grumpy, proud, impulsive; and he... he would be wearing a mask. A mask which made him seem harsh and impassive. But once he would take the mask off, it would relieve the wounds, the pain, the worries, the hope and above all, the love. They have many things in common and at the same time they are completely different. They could've not met, and yet they did. They could've not fallen in love, and yet they did. They could've forget and move on, and yet, they couldn't. In Nicole and Jake's story, at the beginning everything is about hate and how they can't stand each other, about how they would give anything to not be near each other. But everything ends with love and about love. Their love. And how it consumes them and it drives them insane. But they love that. This is their story. Nicole and Jake's story. It's about love: being in love and loving someone; about being broken and hurt and hurting the people around you; about growing up and becoming an adult. It's about being human.

She doesn't break, but she sure as hell is covered in bruises. This is Palak. An oblivious Mafia Princess. The Bubbly Heiress of Chaos.
