Warren Kelly: Anarchist, problem student with a slight disability. Despite being extremely intelligent and a star basketball player, the outlook of his future and even the way he lives in the present; self centred, biased and vengeful can create a mess so large that he wouldn't be able to escape.

Freddie Blackley: Introverted, rich, cello loving girl from a broken home. She lives in a sad dormitory at her school after she was forced to leave home. With her insecurities, her self doubts and several other family secrets that unveil a dark, sinister nature, she slowly turned into something she never thought she could become.

As they venture their last high school year before entering a big and exciting world waiting for them, they have to save themselves from drowning in the cruelest waters known to man: Themselves. 

Warning: Strong language and mentions of sadism, child abuse and depression.

My Girl by anya_jayvyn

Cal Jackson's new life as a rockstar fails to account for one thing: the existence of the girl he loves. ***** "What are you thinking about?" she asks. "A song," I say. "A new song." I stare at the ocean as I sing the song that I wrote, something that comes from the darkest place of my heart. "Do you even know how gifted you are?" she whispers. "You're destined to be someone big, Cal." "Really?" "Yeah." ***** She's perfect in every way. Beautiful. Smart. Her bright future is right there in front of her eyes. While here I am. Ruined. No college, let alone a future. Just an image of a wannabe rockstar with tattoed arms and an old guitar. I knew that our story would be no less than that tragic Romeo and Juliet shit the moment I laid my eyes on her, but still, I can't resist her. The moment she whispers my name, "Cal," I lose all sanity. She becomes my melody, my lyrics, the song that keeps echoing in my ears. People call her Mia. I call her my Amy, her name crafted above my beating heart, tattoed on my skin. Amelia Davis is my girl. Mine. And only mine. © 2021 Anya Jayvyn. All Rights Reserved.

The Rejects Club | Lonely Hearts Club [EDITING] by Ursula_Inc

"Where am I seeing you?" She asked as she brushed a strand of her white hair behind her ear. Jasmine only gave a smile and a giggle as she stood up with her backpack. "The Rejects Club, of course." ()()() Jasmine Ender is the definition of spontaneous. Not only does this girl do just about everything, but she's the biggest social butterfly anyone's ever met. On top of being an actress, she's also just started the school's very first Rejects Club. Now, who decided that the Rejects had to be alone? Mark Nijer might be average but that doesn't mean he's not just as impulsive as his best friend. Being best friends with the school's resident extrovert might have rubbed off on him a bit. Doesn't mean that he's perfect but he's at least the smiling face in the morning. Who doesn't need one of those? Kyra Kingsly just wants to disappear. With the nickname of Detective Purple Hair after solving one of the biggest cases in her small home town, she's been plagued with people knowing who she is. She just wants to be left alone and forgotten so that she can get her work done, without fear of her grandfather's anger. Is that too much to ask? Cleopatra Blackheart is known as the school's bad girl. Last year, she made herself known as the bad girl from Lockwood with her best friend, Bailey, but this year, she's on her own and she's apparently scarier this way. Cold and unmoving, it's no wonder that no one likes to be around her. Cleopatra and a handful and a half. Who wants to be the one to have to deal with that? And then there's Monet Ivory. If you were to ask anyone who she was, they probably wouldn't even know she existed. Monet's that one kid who never speaks, never looks you in the eyes, and barely passes her classes. She's not so much of a mystery as she is a ninja, in and out without anyone knowing. But who is she really and why is she always so distant? And that's the reason that the Rejects Club was made in the first place.

What She Left Behind ✔️ by neurotick

"I'm assuming that little speech was meant for me?" "It was meant for everyone." "But mostly me. Is it because I called her selfish earlier? Are you still hung up on that?" "I'm not hung up on anything, Gemma." "Then why would you go up there and say that?" I demand, my voice rising above a whisper. "Of all days, why would you choose today to publicly humiliate me?" "Today isn't about you, Gemma," Bowie says, catching me by surprise. "Today is about Raelyn, and the fact that we all failed her." ----------- 𝕲𝖊𝖒𝖒𝖆 𝕭𝖊𝖆𝖚𝖋𝖔𝖗𝖙's life is turned upside down the day she gets the call that her best friend, Raelyn, took her own life.

She also left a stack of secrets so high that Gemma fears she never knew her best friend at all. She's so desperate to find out the truth that she may get more than she bargained for. After all, you can't un-ring a bell. BOOK ONE IN THE RAE OF LIGHT SERIES. Copyright © 2019 Briana Eliza.
