Mia has always preferred to stay in the background, quietly observing the world around her. At the annual community fair, she becomes the target of a cruel joke led by Claire, the town's popular girl who hides her insecurities behind charm and manipulation. As the laughter directed at Mia grows louder, she feels the sting of humiliation-but something shifts. The very crowd mocking her begins to question Claire's motives.

In a moment of unexpected courage, Mia steps forward and challenges the facade Claire has carefully constructed. Her bold stand for authenticity and self-worth silences the crowd, forcing everyone to see through the mask of popularity. With the support of newfound friends, Mia discovers the power of embracing who she truly is, rather than conforming to others' expectations.

"Behind the Facade" is a heartfelt journey of self-discovery, empowerment, and breaking free from the shadows of judgment. Mia's story is a powerful reminder that true strength lies in being genuine, even when the world pressures you to be someone else. Will Mia's courage to stand up for herself change the dynamics of her community, or will she retreat back into the background?All Rights Reserved

If You Love Me by slybatspidow

"If you love me, you won't leave me." Jessie has believed those words from her boyfriend, Josh, since senior year of high school. She loves him and doesn't want to leave him. Not even when he shouts at her and hits her. Jessie's best friend, Kolleen, can't stand seeing her in that situation. With a bit of convincing - and the worst beating she'd ever received - Jessie agrees to move into an apartment with Kolleen. But not long after, Jessie is scared the worst of her nightmares will soon become a reality. Josh goes missing, and suddenly Jessie would swear she's being followed. One night changes everything, and one person soon changes Jessie's outlook. A responding officer from that fateful night begins to seek her out, at first claiming it's part of his job. As she spends time with her new friend outside of his job, she starts realizing that her feelings are evolving. After being abused for over a year, Jessie is terrified she's falling in love. What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet. She makes up her mind that if he is falling, and if he does love her, he'll wait for her to be ready, and if she loves him, she won't let herself hurt him. Can the words that used to cage her in really be the key to her freedom? --- Featured On: @NA: Take a seat and let it be | Mature Content and 18+ reading list @NA: You deserve the world | Mental Health reading list Ambys Top Picks New Adult 2023

Custody Battle | RE8 Harem [3] by CinderSpots

Saying they're willing to share you, and actually sharing you are two completely different things. Their idea is great! In theory. Instead of anything entirely comfortable and smooth you have bickering at meetings over you - instead of anything that actually matters - and who gets to have you for the week. The way they refer to you is still slightly objectifying, but you know that they don't know any better. Mia is the only person who seems to remember that - hey - you're a person. Now you spend your mornings eating breakfast and trudging to the next lover's house and don't even talk about how much of a loud disaster it is when at the castle - those women can NOT share. You've taken to lighting yourself on fire to assert your dominance over Angie though - so bright side.

Pumpkin and Plum by SowmyaVenkatesan1

I am Sam, a 17-year-old in my junior year, weighing 200 pounds. I am fat; calling me fat is an understatement. I am obese. If you call getting a straight A+ in algebra and trigonometry a nerd, well! I am a nerd too. I would be lying if I said that I was never hurt when people called me a 'fatty nerd'. I was hurt. Additionally, being best friends with Mia attracts a lot of bullies. Mia is a blonde. Well, that describes her. She is a blonde through and through. Let me describe her in detail. She has shiny golden blonde hair, startling blue eyes, a sharp nose, and full lips. Did I mention she won 'Miss Teen California'? She is a beauty with no comparison. She is my best friend and won't let anyone bully me. So people calling me fat doesn't bother me anymore. Actually, it makes me happy, seeing the indignation and anger from Mia. She makes me feel special. I would be a fool if I didn't fall in love with this girl. Oh! Yes, I forgot to mention. I love Mia. And she doesn't know that.
