When Love Lasts
SHORT STORY!! There are three things you should know before you start reading our story. One, my name is Vanessa and I'm a fucking idiot. I'm not stupid or anything, I just make idiotic choices that make my life so much harder. Two, this isn't a very good story. Nothing here is perfect and I'm not a very good story teller. It's messy, crazy, unplanned, and at times, it's just fucking stupid. Three, I've always wondered what the point of life is. Being a second choice for everyone around you will make you feel small, invisible, so what's really the point. That always leads me to the question: What is life? I never really found an answer for it, so if you know, please provide me with some insight. Well, now that I have warned each of you, this is the start of our story.Complete

A Year Around the Sun
"This is a story about our love. An intoxicating, fast-paced love that didn't think of time as a source of measurement over the course of a summer that changed my life forever.

An outline of smoke, with the ashes on the ground as the only telltale sign that we actually had something." ~~~~~~~~~~ « further description inside » #2 IN YOUNG ADULT (2/20/20) #6 IN #SUMMER (4/8/19) #93 IN TEEN FICTION (3/25/18) #97 IN TEEN FICTION (3/22/18) #263 IN TEEN FICTION (3/6/18) #647 IN TEEN FICTION (2/23/18) #674 IN TEEN FICTION (2/20/18) #853 IN TEEN FICTION (2/18/18) (An Ex-Featured Wattpad Pick)Complete
