Juliet doesn't know when the spark in her faded.
  She doesn't hate her life. She knows she has a lot to be thankful for.
  She's got friends, she's got hobbies she enjoys, she's got a job that she doesn't completely despise, and miraculously her relationship with her family managed to survive her transition mostly intact.
  So why does she feel like she's just treading water?
  Why does she feel too exhausted to ever fight for herself?
  Fiona is the perfect girl. She's caring, confident, outgoing, adventurous and unbelievably beautiful. She's everything Juliet wishes she was, but knows she can never be...
  And yet, Fiona is absolutely smitten with her, and Juliet can't figure out why...
  Through a lot of soul-searching, gay kissing, nerves and scuba diving, Juliet is going to have to do what she thought she'd done years ago...
  Figure out what she really wants.
  Is it too late?
  Has she sunk too far into her own anxiety?
  Will Fiona be the one who's able to bring her to the surface? Or is Juliet doomed to sink forever?
    
  CW: The main character is a dysphoric trans woman, and the story does talk fairly openly about her own internal struggles

[Complete. Wattys 2023 Winner] The Redding takes you if it knows your name. That's the rule that's kept Meg alive --- or awake, rather --- since the night the world went to hell. Nobody knows where the red stuff came from, but it acts like water, it's in the water, and it falls as rain every night. The people it captures drop like puppets with their strings cut. They're asleep, not dead, and you can wake them if you say their name again. But then they just try to kill you. Meg and the other survivors she's befriended think they've found a stable equilibrium, six weeks after the catastrophe began. Nicknames become real names, and Meg knows she's getting better at identifying safe houses. Her crush discovers that Morse code, like writing, is a safe way to say a Sleeper's name. It's the night after learning it that Meg wakes up just as the nightly rain is starting. Raindrops, as it turns out, can make dots and dashes, too. The Redding can talk. And it's telling her to run. ❖❖❖ Complete. Wattys 2023 Winner.

Morose βœ”οΈ by Amplect

When you experience the worst thing you could ever imagine, how do you react? - "The water looked so tempting under me as I stood there in the dark. The splashing sounds as the waves hit the stone calmed me down and I took a deep breath. Yes. This was it. I closed my eyes and took one step closer, feeling the curb under the soles of my shoes when I stopped again. Then my heart started pounding when I heard the sound of an angry engine behind me, a screech and a crash. I turned around, gasping, ready to pick my phone up from the ground to call for help- but what met me was a pair of soul-searching golden eyes. In all his twisted glory, he stood in front of me, his precious motorcycle's engine still going as it laid on the ground behind him. His hand reached out, as if asking me to wait, but neither of us said anything. We just stood there." - Olivia was a happy, cheerful girl whose life turned upside down one evening, over a phone call. Her mind turned dark, her thoughts became intrusive, and she became... morose. One night everything seemed to fall apart and she found herself at the river banks when an old friend found her and refused to let her go. That night kickstarted something in her that made her want to change... for him. Helix was a misunderstood man surrounded by dark rumors. People feared him. Everyone stayed away from him.. Except Olivia. Olivia's life is in danger; can she fight her way out of the black hole before it's too late? ⚠️ Mature audiences only TW: includes adult themes such as suicide, sexuality, alcohol and other mental health-related issues - viewer discretion is advised

When visiting Canada for a wedding, a commitment-averse dive instructor must pretend to date her Australian seatmate to avoid conflict with her ex and judgmental mother. *** Audrey Clarke rarely felt like other women her age. Not as a teen who'd never gushed about gorgeous celebrities, nor at almost thirty, with no desire to marry, have kids, or settle down. She would much rather explore reefs in Southeast Asia and adventure around exciting places. Even when she meets travellers with similar dreams, none are the right romantic match. Until Caleb. When flying home to Canada for her friend's wedding, Audrey dreads confronting the pain she caused her ex and facing her judgemental mother. It drives her to connect with her seatmate, Australian environmental scientist, Caleb, who also craves a distraction. Despite his charm, he is enigmatic about the cause of his stress. They agree to fake a relationship to make their lives easier. The more time they spend together, the more real their act feels. Will Audrey be brave enough to share her true feelings before the trip is over? *** Featured on - Ambassador's recommendations "Aces!

She has no friends, she has people at school she talks to but they aren't real friends. They are just there but never when she needs someone. She gets in trouble and fights a lot.

This story is bout their relationship, as it grows, they learn about each other and help each other. Will this shy girl go for it? Will this badass fall for her and finally love again?

If you are easily triggered by anything depressing and self harm or uncomfortable with swears and sexual stuff then I suggest you don't read this story. This is an LGBT lesbian girlxgirl story. If you dont like that please don't read and no hate guys please. Im not the best at writing I just do it for fun when I have time. So now without further ado, I give you 'The shy girl kissed who!?'
