A World No Longer Heliocentric by coriscc___

Bella is the girl who lost everything to cancer, and her world suddenly revolves around her sickness. She lost her friends, her mother, her confidence. Her life became a series of doctor visits, stories in her head, and hours of making up for the work she misses in school. She never expects anything out of herself or life because she doesn't want to get her hopes up. Everything changes when she gets partnered up for a physics project with Liam. Liam is the opposite of Bella, always looking at the future and keeping his hopes high. But his bipolar mother keeps him back, always derailing his life. Taking care of his mom without his dad, he always buried everything he felt. But when he gets partnered with his childhood crush for a physics project, Bella, his perspective with his mother and himself changes. They challenge each other, impacting their own mindsets and decisions, feelings for each other kindling. When Bella learns the truth of her mother leaving and when she gets to the lowest point in her life, his faith in her strength leads her to believe there's a world that doesn't revolve around her. Bella forces Liam to discover his identity without his mother's life in his hands, uncovering a vulnerable side of him. And to think that their lives together started with a physics project.

Tangled in Love by HLClinton

"Something snapped her back to reality. As she looked past Nolan, she saw a black car-a black SUV. It swerved past the other cars, narrowly avoiding collision. Suddenly, the driver lost control. The car rushed towards them. The headlights shone on Maya's face, blinding her, leaving spots of purple clouding her vision. She saw its wheels spin against the cement ground, coming closer and closer. It was heading straight towards Nolan." *** Maya and Nolan began their relationship sweetly, their love mutual and absolute, yet, at first, unspoken. However, the two soon taste the bitterness life holds for them. From car crashes to court cases, Nolan and Maya's love is tried countless times. Will it be able to survive, or will it fade away, lost to the limits of love? Copyright All Rights Reserved © 2015 H. L. Clinton Note: annielovessamad is the editor

Silence Between Us by CuddleFics

[18+] - Just a gentle reminder, this story explores themes of deep emotions, complicated relationships, and morally complex dynamics. If these topics feel overwhelming or sensitive, please read with care. This story leans into the more mysterious and darker sides of life. <3 Laim enters Maya's life at a pivotal moment, offering her something she hasn't experienced in a long time- genuine trust and love. Having been betrayed in the past, Maya is deeply guarded and mistrustful. But Laim with his quiet kindness and patience, becomes the steady presence she didn't expect but desperately needed. The tender story of Maya and Laim, two people discovering the depths of love and trust. As their relationship grows, Maya grapples with self-doubt but finds reassurance in Laim's unwavering devotion. Their connection is built on quiet moments, emotional vulnerability, and mutual respect. Laim promises to stand by Maya through all challenges, and together they learn that love doesn't require grand gestures, but sincerity and support. Their love becomes a powerful, comforting force, rooted in understanding and loyalty, creating a bond that assures them both of a bright, shared future ahead. Laim actions speak louder than words. When Maya doubts the possibility of kindness, he proves through his consistency that trust can be rebuilt. Whether offering a listening ear or standing by her during is bad, I thought they would go through phases that would make them apart, but let's see how they become one and break the silence.

The Guy in My Spanish class by theenbywriter

This time, I can't help but flinch as he touches me and pulls the other strap down .. bearing my other shoulder to his eyes. "Anthony .. you can't say those things. We .. we're supposed to be best friends." As I try to reason with him, he begins to kiss my shoulder .. making the words come out so much more weaker than intended. Anthony stays quiet after what I say, or rather he ignores me, instead using his other hand to play with the skin on my stomach exposed from the top. "I know .." He trails off. I hold my breath, anxious as I wait to hear what he's going to say next. "But I don't know if that's enough for me anymore .." Anthony moves my hair to side, and the words he speaks are paired with a slow kiss to the nape of my neck. Beatrix thought she'd never trust another guy again. After having her heart broken and being bullied out of her high school, when an opportunity to leave takes the form of a scholarship to a private university, she packs up and accepts happily. Everything was supposed to start over that year, all she had to do was lay low and maintain a focus on her studies to graduate. Until she meets a guy in her Spanish class. Beatrix's world is turned upside down as she explores new friendships and begins to open back up to the world. She begins to navigate her new life on campus, filled with arduous exams, study sessions, hard decisions and of course .. a little drama and excitement to make things entertaining. This is a slow burn!!!

IT'S HER STORY~❤ by kashikanayyar

This story is about a girl who basically hated her life because of the experiences she had at a very early age. Even though there were a lot of people who left her, there were some who stood by her. But in this Teen fiction when people gave up on there own lives and one another, will Maya would be able to survive it? And even if she will, things will never be the same maybe in a good way but there's no surety of it as it is life only takes a few seconds to change everything. In this story of friendship, love, and harassment, I hope that my way of writing sickness out will be a cure for your problems. And even if your problems aren't solved it's not the end of your life as you all know that you can overcome it and take over your problems....
