Everyone has experienced setbacks, made errors in judgment, and had their trust broken due to unfulfilled promises. These experiences can leave us feeling vulnerable and betrayed. However, we eventually gather the strength to pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and move through life once again.
Since we all know that life has its ups and downs, we can expect to encounter good fortune at some point. However, what if one never experiences an upswing? What if life continues to relentlessly knock you down, preventing you from finding any semblance of good fortune?
This is the story of my life, made up of a series of unfulfilled promises, shattered hopes, and unrealized aspirations. Despite that, a small part of me-even unknown to myself-hopes for something better.
And because of this, some might call me a "fool," but isn't it better to go through life with some hope?

"Cherish The Moments We Had Together"
Cherish The Moments We Had Together no A Story of Second Chances and New Beginnings When Ethan Collins is uprooted from everything familiar-his hometown, his friends, his girlfriend-and transplanted to Westwood in the middle of junior year, he's convinced his life is over. Armed with bitter resentment and a long-distance relationship he's determined to maintain, he arrives at Westwood High expecting nothing but misery. What he finds instead is a world that refuses to let him wallow. There's Andy, the effortlessly charismatic athlete who won't take no for an answer. Dayna Prescott, the mysterious "Westwood royalty" who seems to have her own agenda. And a cast of characters who all seem to know who he is before he's even introduced himself-courtesy of his surgeon mother's growing legend and his lawyer father's rising star. Ethan doesn't want a fresh start. He wants his old life back. But as boxes get unpacked and unfamiliar hallways become navigable, he begins to realize that maybe-just maybe-being forced to rebuild isn't the end of his story. It might be the beginning of something he never knew he needed. This is a story about the messy reality of starting over. About the guilt of moving forward when part of you wants to stay stuck. About discovering that sometimes the worst thing that can happen to you opens the door to the best thing you never saw coming. Not every ending is an ending. Sometimes it's just an uncomfortable new chapter. Disclaimer: This work is a completely original piece of fiction.

Resilience
I never planned on telling my story. Truth is, I've spent most of my life holding it in, swallowing the pain, laughing off the shade, putting on a mask when deep down I was fighting battles no one could see. But the older I got, the more I realized silence can eat you alive. And if I don't tell it raw and unfiltered, then who will? This book isn't polished for perfection. It's not sugarcoated, it's not dressed up to make anyone comfortable. It's me, The struggles, the lessons, the laughter, the embarrassing moments, the heartbreaks, the love, the shady comebacks, the nights I thought I wouldn't make it, and the mornings I woke up ready to fight again. I named this book Resilience because that's exactly what my life has been about. No matter how many times I was knocked down by people I loved, by family pressure, by toxic love, by my own mistakes, I got back up. Bruised, maybe. Bitter, sometimes. But never broken. So if you're holding this book, know this is, you're not reading some perfect fairytale. You're stepping into my world. One filled with chaos, comedy, culture, love, and pain that shaped me into the person I am today. And maybe, just maybe, you'll find pieces of yourself in these pages too. This is my story. Raw. Real. Resilient.
Conflicted
"You know Luke the more you stutter the cuter you get" And that was the very moment I broke, his emerald eyes burning into me as I folded, his thumb tracing my jaw, a soft smile nudging at his lips, his body lingering over mine, leaning back I couldn't help but stare in a daze, his knee rubbing against my thighs, a soft moan escaping my tongue. This sound only made him smile, maybe I was dreaming but before I knew it his lips had collided with mine. *** Luke knew he wasn't into girls, he could tell by the way his stomach turned at any attractive man. Has he had any experience? Not at all, not even his first kiss. What'll happen when the most popular soccer player in his school begins to take intrest in Luke? Can he keep his cool at how the hot player acts? or will his emotions get the best of him? Can the two keep their relationship in tact when fate shoves challenges along the way? ______________________________________________ [MADE MATURE BY WATTPAD]Complete
