Once in a lifetime. by dreyelizabeth

When the rest of the band stepped away slightly Dalton put his arm around my waist and I thought my knees were going to buckle. I knew what I was going to do, and I needed all the courage I could muster up. As my brother's thumb goes down to take the photo I suddenly turn my head, close my eyes, and kiss Dalton right on the cheek. Dalton is known as a "rockstar" playing shows every night in the biggest cities. Juliet is a wallflower ballerina in a small town. What happened when their world collide? And what will happen when someone from Daltons life tries to take what's rightfully his? An even bigger twist, you get to decide the ending. This was originally FacFiction that I changed into a sort of kind of legitimate story. I started it in high school and my 24 year old self is trying desperately to fix it because I've written two sequels to it as an adult. I'll also be publishing them once this one is fully published. If you don't like the story, I get it, I don't really either 😅. Trigger warnings: ⚠️ Eating disorders (I've experienced) ⚠️ Bipolar disorder (I did my best on the research) ⚠️ Child abuse (I've witnessed) ⚠️ Low self esteem (I've experienced) ⚠️A bit of self harm from another character (I've experienced) ⚠️Miscarriages (I've witnessed) If there are any that I've missed feel free to let me know!

Ink & Lust: Wattpad Version by AmethystAmber87

After a tragedy, Amila Johnson abandons her life in New York and retreats back to her birthplace of Houston. She tries to start anew but she can't get far with the skills of being an almost classically trained ballerina. Deciding to take up her friend's offer to pick up a few shifts at a coffee shop, she becomes reacquainted with a person from her past. He wants to help her but values his privacy and she doesn't like handouts. So, they formulate a contractual agreement. An agreement that's pleasurable for them both but will feelings get in the way of this act of ink and lust or will things stay professional. Luxury and sex; what's more to want?

All Over Me by itstessadavis

Selene I finally decided to audition for the New York City Ballet. And it looks good, since Thomas Archer-one of the choreographer-wants to see if Ace Archer and I are good partners for a contemporary and classical ballet that we would perform next year. But as a ballet dancer, touch isn't really my forte. Especially when I don't get along with my partner. Ace My body language is touch. My friends and all my former partners are used to me touching them all the time, they don't react to it anymore. But she does. Selene Isabel Quinn reacts to my touch in a way I didn't think was even possible. Despite the fact that she...despises me. And I don't like her that much either, so we're even. Every time I touch her, though, it feels different. I don't know why, and it fucking frustrates me. Quinn Sisters #2

Fresh off the Ice by SA_icegirl

I am a Figure skater. I skate 6 hours a day, 30 hours a week and about 2,700 minutes a month. That doesn't include training, off-ice, ballet, drama, and yoga. I have three coaches (the top best), a choreographer, physical trainer, a ballet teacher, a drama teacher, a dietitian, a podiatrist, a chiropractor and a tutor. I know what your thinking. All this for a sport? It's not a sport, it's a lifestyle and a PASSION. (I thought I would right this story because I am a figure skater and I didn't see a lot of figure skating books so I wrote a story I might enjoy reading -from a fellow reader and writer)
