This is a story told from the perspectives of two people, the first is Sylvia, a 16-year-old with some serious issues. Abusive father, a mother who doesn't approve at all of Sylvia's tastes, bullies, abusive ex-boyfriends, and little siblings to protect, she's got the whole deal. All she's got left are her best friends: Amber, and music. Specifically, rock music. At Kantmorse High, she's the one in school nobody notices, besides of course to pick on and tease, the quiet one in the corner with her earbuds in. With romance and suicide sworn off, she's resigned to her cold, isolated life. Then, everything changes.

Jumping between also the perspective of teenaged Blaithe Roila, a bad-boy who's so famous nearly everyone knows his name, a popular who has been kicked out of every high school in the district for his shenanigans, all except one. Kantmorse Public High School. Obsessed with crime, cigarettes, rap music, and anything outside the lines, he's not really keen to changing. He is known to almost everyone as the ultimate badass/player/bad-boy, and he's not willing nor wanting to change that image anytime soon. However, beneath his tough-guy, carefree, devil-may-care attitude, he hides family secrets of his own...

...secrets only Sylvia sees. He seems to be the only one to notice her, and she feels strangely attracted towards the new boy in town, and thinks she may just be able to break his emotional shell. But will he let her? And is it worth the risk for her?

"Fuck." He whispers into my neck, sending a thrill of excitement through my body. His lips still smothered kisses over my neck and his hands roamed my body, starting at my chest, going down to my stomach. Caressing my soft skin, his thumb trailed circles on my groin before slightly slipping into the waistband of my jeans. My breath catches in my throat as I pull at the hoodie that covered his chiselled body. Understanding, Jacob pulls it off in one swift movement before attaching his lips back on my neck. Sucking and biting it before flicking his tongue over the sore spot. A quiet moan leaves my mouth and I clasp my hand over it, denying any noise to escape.

Once I get to Melanie's classroom I fill out the sign out sheet that's on the wall and make my way into the classroom. I faintly hear Melanie laughing so I know she's not upset from me being late. "Hey I'm so sorry. I got stuck in traff..." I said stopping mid sentence, stunned at the woman in front of me.

As soon as I looked into those Caribbean blue that I used to know so well, I knew it was her. It takes her a few seconds to realize who I am. She stands there stunned. We continue to stare at each other until she breaks the silence. "Josh?" She asks not believing it's actually me. "Hey Katie girl."

(This book is a representation of my experiences with dating someone with depression in high school. I wrote it while we were dating, subconsciously writing him into the character Infinity. I will say that I intend to rewrite this at some point to send a better message, as I feel some of the actions in this book are unhealthy reactions to depression, that I have a much better perspective of now) [I'm also working on a VN based on this story.... If my studies would stop getting in the way]Complete

The deserted island
Heyyy, nice to have you stop by ;) This story is about a group of young people aged 17-20 who wash up on a deserted island.🏝️ They are good friends, but over time they start to notice tensions rising within the group. It happens that several of the guys fall for the same girl, and things go completely wrong. - Juliette often stays close to Emiel, since they're a couple, but her gaze keeps drifting towards Victor, whose sharp humor and self-assured attitude unknowingly intrigue her. She has a slight fear of Victor. - Emiel is Juliette's partner and would do anything to protect her. He's quite jealous, but only when necessary. He's a real man, not a boy. - Victor occasionally throws a challenging look at Emiel, as if silently daring him. Emiel feels more and more uncomfortable. Victor is very smart and cunning, and he would do anything to win Juliette over, convincing her that Emiel isn't right for her, but that he himself is. Victor is the most unreliable, clever, and sly guy. He has his eye on Juliette but makes it all too obvious. He must and will convince her to be with him, showing her that he's the only right one... though that's not actually the case. - Robbe is the smart one in the group. - Gina is clairvoyant. - Amber, who watches all of this unfold, often plays calming melodies on her harp. She has an intuitive gift to sense when tensions rise, and her music usually keeps the group in balance. There is romance, violence, and coarse language, so sensitive readers are warned!! For each sensitive scene, there will be a "T.W.⚠️" present, which will also close with "End of T.W.⚠️". I hope you enjoy the story and give it a chance! Hopefully, I'll get some feedback to guide me. Love you 💕 Lynn x
