I loved the state fair. The smell of the popcorn. The taste of the salted butter. Hearing people scream with joy. The feel of the soft fur of the stuffed animals you win. Seeing couples go on the ferris wheel. I loved the fair so much. Until the accident in 1989 happened. It could've been me, should've been me. But it wasn't. Now I live here with all the guilt to walk away with. Everyone blames me for what happened. If I were them, I would too. I mean a girl sitting with the person on the ferris wheel, and then all of the sudden, the seat falls, and that person dies while the girl walks away unharmed. That 'person' was my 6 year old brother, and that 'girl' was me. He had so much to live for. I still hear his screams and laughter from that night, only to die for my sins. I blame myself. I could have saved him, but I didn't, why?
This book was a school project that developed into an actual book. I finally had the confidence to post it, so here it is.

Behind that Smile | Editing
Growing up in a large, middle-class (if not lower) family had its challenges. More than I can account for actually. I had five older sisters and two older brothers. Throw me into the mix and that's a grand total of eight children living under one roof. If my mom hadn't stopped with yours truly, we would have definitely been able to form an entire soccer team with just our family alone. I can't recall much of my childhood and exactly how I interacted with each and every one of my siblings, but I can assure you that it was nowhere near a nice walk through the park. Even until this very day, I still stand by my statement. This is a story about a broken girl who fools the world with one simple action which requires less than ten muscles. Then along comes a boy who knows very well what really lies behind that smile. thank you soooo much to dirtypalette for the beautiful cover <3Complete
Runners
They balance each-other out. One the calm, the other the storm. Except when they don't. Except when she loses it and makes the place burn...literally. Who knew a burnt building would lead to three lost brothers across the country and a big ass house...after being on the run for almost a year. The twins are in for a crazy ride, but they're in it together. Always. Pinky promise. Will it be enough? TW: abuse, SA, r*pe, and mature language/scenes. (I suck at descriptions, but it would mean a lot if you gave my book a try! <3 ) *Unedited* 🌻 Started ~ 24/09/21 ~ 🌻 🌻 Finished ~ 25/01/22~ 🌻Complete
Altered
Have you ever met someone who alters the course of your life? For good or for bad, they've come in, given and taken, and then- BOOM! Your life was never the same. There's always a change, an altering of reality. When you meet those people, the reality that you've known your whole life is suddenly gone and a new one has taken its place. When those moments happen, there's no going back. You can try to return to the way things were but nothing, and I mean nothing, can take you back to exactly how it was. That's what happened to us. I think that's why we're still trying so desperately to get back to some sort of normalcy. Four years later and we're still on the ground, crawling, in search of the happiness that was lost that June. Summers will never be the same. Midnight walks through my neighborhood will never be the same. Field parties with bonfires and loud music will never be the same. I still don't know why you left and what lead you to the decision you made. What I do know is that we're here. We're alive and we're pushing forward to the future. A future that you're not a part of. But in some ways, I'm glad you're not a part of it. I just wish it wasn't like this. *** TRIGGER WARNING*** SA, abuse, suicide, substance abuse, and mental illness. This is a complete story that is much like life; fast, full of surprises, and not always how we want it to be. This has been a project of mine for over three years. It was self-published on Amazon, but after some issues in publication, I decided to just upload it on here. I hope you fall in love with these characters like I have. The friends in this story are trying to make names for themselves, figure out who they are, who they can trust, how to love, and how to separate themselves from a restrictive community. As in any coming of age story, they will experience growing pains... but will they survive them before its too late? PLEASE READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS.Complete

CHIVALRY🥀
These words, "I'll kill any guy who comes close to you," and "If I don't have you, nobody else will." We took them too lightly. We all had things that happened to us which we vowed never to talk about. Secrets we kept. The lies we said. The heartaches that still hurts at night and the forbidden sex we had with other people. Above all, that one person who didn't fit in the fabulous life we lived. High school was trash. All the threats and fights which occurred made us hate the word 'School' Hoping college would be a good start for us, we held our heads up high like saints. If I'm to really confess what happened, I would say WE all KILLED him. Contains A Little Bit Of Mature Themes and Strong Language. Get Your Tissues Ready❤️Complete

Loving Raven
'... I found myself unable to find much sleep the night after the accident. I felt responsible for every part of it. From the drunk driver running that red light, overturning into our lane, and I not having enough time to react. If I had just a few more seconds, I could've saved her. Every time I close my eyes I hear her screams. She was screaming for her life, and deep down it made me believe she knew she wouldn't make it out of that car alive...'Complete

Please, try not to hate her. She's just a girl, after all. She's still figuring things out and doesn't understand what love truly means. She's never learned how to love or be loved. It's not entirely her fault. Others should have tried harder to understand her instead of blaming her. They left her feeling abandoned and labeled her as a monster. She's lost in a whirlwind of emotions she can't comprehend. So please, don't condemn her. ________________ Entry for the 8 Chapter Challenge and I have succeeded in it!!
