This is the story of a girl who was blindsided by her love. Even though she did everything right, or so she thought.

Abbey was just 16 when she was swept off her feet by a classmate during her senior year of high school, little did she know about him, but through almost six years together she would understand what true betrayal was. Now 22, she gets a devastating taste of reality. What lies in store for this broken, naive woman?

Based on a true story. (Unfortunately) everything in this story is factual, and still cuts me deep to this day.

The Truth Hurts by 7ofspades_

"You know...I thought I was just being a good friend by telling you. But no...I just wanted you for myself right? I didn't care about your feelings?" Even though he didn't want to admit it, the truth hurt him more than he hurt her. Elise Gardner is the new girl in town. She's friendly to everyone she meets and doesn't like to judge a book by it's cover. At her new school she meets new friends, one of them being Daniel Cordova. He's the eye candy that catches Elise's eye but to her dismay, he has a girlfriend. But, don't think that Elise hasn't caught Daniel's eye as well. They become really close friends and tell each other everything. Soon that friendship is put to the test when Elise sees something she wishes she hasn't. Know that if she tells Daniel, it could ruin their friendship. She decides to tell him, but that all soon backfires...when Daniel doesn't believe her. Will her and Daniel's friendship make it? And what happens when he finds out the truth, after what he's done to her (and more?)? The thing about the truth is that no matter how hard one tries to keep it in, it would eventually get out and when it does, it won't always have the most positive outtake.

His lips parted and a soft gasp escaped him. "You're so hot, Misty. Without even trying, yo- you look so beautiful sitting in class, doing your work ignoring me," he said. And each word is tattooed on my heart. I felt a wave of confidence as he spoke while I kissed his neck. "Tell me more," I said and he let out a throaty laugh before speaking again. "And I wish to grab you by the neck and make out with you until we both can't breathe. I want to kiss you in public, I want to fuck you in public, I want to claim you in public," he said as I rested my arm beside him and balanced on it while I unbuttoned my jeans. "Anything else?" I asked, quietly, looking into his eyes as his hands found my hips and pushed my jeans off. "You are just so fucking perfect," he said and I slammed my lips on his lips, my jeans lying on the floor now as I started unbuttoning his pants. ━━━━━━━ 𝐀𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐲𝐬𝐭 𝐖𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐧 want nothing more than to be rich and leave the town filled with nothing but god-complex rich people.

Night of Secrets (Night of Secrets #1) by words_for_food

Another year, another three letters to write and never send. Since freshman year, Adeline Stargate has made it a tradition to write letters to each of her three friends telling them what she hated the most about them that school year. After her junior year, she decides this is a tradition that needs to end and is set on burning all nine letters at the end-of-the-year bonfire. But when one of her friends happens to find one of the letters and reads it, her plans - and friendships - are ruined. Or at least changed. Jax Inkrose, an old childhood friend, decides to turn this into a night to reconnect and share secrets. For each letter Adeline reads to him, he'll share his own secret. Nine secrets for nine letters. Seems fair. But as the night goes on, Adeline realizes there are some secrets she's even hidden from herself and isn't too sure that she wants Jax to know about them. Or herself for that matter.

His Sweet Lies by moonprincess87

Her brows furrowed. "You look like you have something specific you wanna ask me." The tips of Liam's ears turned red at Emma's very accurate observation. "I, uh... I usually just bullshit my way through projects, so I have no idea what the hell I'm doing." The corners of Emma's lips formed a small smile. Liam arched his brow. "What are you smiling at?" Her smile widened. "Nothing." Ever since Emma started going to Silver Creek High, she's been bullied over her discolored eyes. It all started when a boy brought attention to her in biology class one day, laughing at her and calling her a "freak" while the rest of the class laughed along with him. She never looked at him or saw his face; she just ran out of the room crying. She was now an outcast labeled as a freak and she wanted nothing more than to just disappear. She felt she had no purpose in life. Until her sophomore year when she fell in love with Liam, the guy every girl wanted; the guy every dude wanted to be. He had stolen her heart and she now wanted nothing more than to be with him. Unfortunately, Liam seemed to want nothing to do with Emma. He seemed to be straight up avoiding her. They never interacted for 3 whole years. That is, until now in their senior year, when they get paired up for a school project. The two must put their differences aside and try to work as a team. But as they spend more time together, feelings grow deeper, and secrets start to rise to the surface.

Lacey by xxitsmeimbitchesxx

When my father left my mother and me for a better life, I was devastated and naively thought my life couldn't get any worse. How wrong I was. My new stepfather decided he was entitled to my body, and my mother became an alcoholic who did her best to ignore my existence. My only solace in life was my younger twin stepsisters and my best friend, Dane. Over time, Dane and I became more than friends; he knew my deepest, darkest secrets, and I knew his. When I turned sixteen, I couldn't stand my stepfather's abuse any longer, so I reached out to my father and begged him to take me in. Overnight I went from sleeping in a putrid-smelling, cramped trailer to living in a mansion. It was there that I met the devil himself. Disguised as my new, breath-taking stepbrother, Ryder. Ryder and his three best friends, Saint, West and Lawson turned my world upside down. At first, they possessively loved and adored me; unfortunately, that all changed the night of my junior prom, where my life went from bad to worse. The four boys I had grown to trust with my secrets and body turned on me when the queen bitch of the school shared a video with them. Now my only allies in life are Dane and a sweetheart named Matt, who is willing to take any beating my stepbrother and his friends give him to stay at my side. Life had always handed me lemons; was I strong enough to turn those bitches into lemonade? Trigger warnings: Dub/Con, Non/Con, SA, Drug use, Self harm, Murder.

Hope by jessicamay672

Kate was used to dealing with unfair consequences. Having a less than ideal home life and no one else to support her, she had learned to deal with things on her own. She had learned not to feel and especially not to hope. So when someone new comes into her life Kate does the best thing she can think of, she shuts them out. But, after a series of events in the course of one day, they are thrown back together, and Kate is given the chance to explain herself. Explain why she was so guarded and why she had closed herself off in the first place. And maybe along the way Kate learns that things aren't always so bad. That feeling and hoping aren't the worst things in the world. ***Warning: Mention of abuse is included in this story. Please don't read if that is a trigger for you in any way. Hope you enjoy the story. Feel free to leave comments and/or suggestions, I'm open to whatever.
