Pain. 
Look it up, in the dictionary;
Peɪn noun

Highly unpleasant physical sensation caused by illness or injury.
"She’s in great pain”
•		
2.	
mental suffering or distress.
“The pain of loss” 
All valid points, but I’m talking about the scorching, burning, everlasting pain that never ends. No matter what you do or where you are in the world. The type of pain that changes you and doesn’t let you forget or move on. No matter where you look pain will always be there. 

Love. In books and movies everyone has their happily ever after, that perfect ending. The one that everyone knows will come in the end. However this is life and life is cruel. It plays games with you until you willing surrender your soul. Those three words are said too much but not enough. 
"Love is nothing but an overrated emotion that brings nothing but pain to those unfortunate enough to suffer it".-- Carole Mortimer 

It all comes back to pain 
"Maybe we like the pain. Maybe we’re weird like that, because without the blistering pain maybe we just wouldn’t feel real. What’s that saying? Why do I keep hitting myself with a hammer? Because it feels so good when I stop". – Meredith Grey

My name is Christina Hale and this is my painful story. 
I’m the runaway.

Sorry, I Love You! by eliza_s
42 parts Complete
There's a difference between being alone and lonely. ~~~~~~ "Why does love hurt? "Because......if it doesn't hurt then it isn't love." I replied. ~~~~~ Eugene Hansen - He is rich and has everything one could wish for life; name, fame, money, and good looks except for that one thing he craves the most: LOVE. He masks his pain and loneliness behind his attitude and arrogance but if you take a close look at him, you will know how much he yearns to love and to be loved in return. Abigail Devon - She is not rich. She doesn't live a lavish lifestyle. For her life has always been hard and full of struggle. But, she never shows it on her face. She masks her pain behind her smile, kind behavior and easy going nature. She yearns for love but because of the hardships she has gone through, she is afraid to take that leap. They are poles apart but when they come to stand face-to-face, their life takes a complete 360. They don't have anything in common; from their social status to their behavior, they are the perfect example of the word 'Opposite'. Despite that fact, there is one thing that's common between them: They both have lost their loved ones. Will this one common fact bring them closer or will it separate them forever? Join Abigail and Eugene on their journey to find true love through a path that contains a lot of fun, fights, a lifetime friendships, hardships, hatred, but most of all - love and hurt because of which they cannot help but say "Sorry, I Love You."

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.

Walk With Me

11 parts Complete

(DISCONTINUED) I walked all the way to the park. I waited every day for at least thirty minutes. I walked back my confidence withering. Every. Single. Time. I was tired of waiting, I had my hopes up for way too long. One more walk, one more wait. He will be there. And he was. Lost on the path of not only life but her own decisions, Harlow Swan takes a chance to find her long lost friend, or crush, should I say. Meeting up with him again after two years, she realizes that maybe life wasn't so bad after all, and maybe there were some things that weren't as horrible as she thought. But not long after, things begin to go downhill, and her hopes begin to crumble. Harlow thinks that maybe once she's put her life back together, along with her hope, maybe everything would be normal again. But maybe everything wasn't meant to be normal, maybe it was all meant to be awful and way too truthful for her liking. It isn't just any normal story, after all; it's hers.
