In a world marred by addiction and abandonment, thirteen-year-old Lucy Bennett finds herself trapped between a haunting past and an uncertain future. After her mother sells her for a fix, Lucy is thrust into the dazzling yet suffocating realm of fame, becoming an unexpected addition to the lives of the world's biggest boy band, One Direction. As she grapples with her newfound reality, overshadowed by her mother's addiction and the stigma of her circumstances, Lucy yearns not for fortune, but for safety, warmth, and love.
Amidst the glamour of marble floors and flashing cameras, she discovers an unlikely ally in Harry Styles, whose kindness pierces through her emotional fog. Drawing strength from their burgeoning friendship, Lucy finds solace in the shared laughter and late-night talks that remind her of a life she thought she had lost. However, just as she begins to grasp the possibility of happiness, the specters of her past claw their way back, threatening to unravel the fragile stitches of her new life.
In a dramatic showdown between her old life and the sanctuary she has found, Lucy learns that true strength lies in facing her demons rather than running from them. With Harry and the band rallying beside her, she must confront the chaos of her past-a mother desperate for help, lurking dangers, and the constant judgment of outsiders.
As the stakes rise, Lucy must make a choice: return to the shadows that haunt her or embrace the stardust of a new beginning. In a powerful tale of resilience and love, "Shadows and Stardust" explores the journey of a young girl who learns that while the shadows may always linger, the light of friendship and love can guide her toward a future worth embracing.

Just Trust Me || n.h. (EDITING IN PROGRESS)
Tatum Williams, 17 years old, is finally in her last year of school. For her the years seemed to drag longer than usual. Tatum and her mom move around frequently for reasons she likes to keep secret. She will be attending her senior year of high school in her fourth school in the past 3 years. Because they move around so often, people didn't see the need in learning her name so she was always called new girl, rumors would spread about her, and she was bullied. She only had one friend the past 3 years and she didn't stick around long. She thought people had found out about her past somehow and that was why they were so cruel to her. Maybe just maybe this year would be different because instead of moving to a different state they moved out of the country to London. She can finally truly be herself. No one would know about her past and wouldn't have any idea who she was, or she had hoped. On her first day, she comes face to face with a certain boy who's looks and kindness (which she didn't get much of) catch her off guard, but when talking to him she feels a set of eyes watching them and sees it's another boy. Out of these two boys one isn't who he says he is and the other knows exactly who that person really is. Tatum has one rule: don't fall in love because the next day she could be leaving. But will her heart let her stick to that rule? Who will she fall for, and how much pain will she have to go through to find out the one she may be falling for is the one who isn't who he says he is? Will the one who is right for her save her before she gets hurt? Can he get her to open up about her past and fall for him, who is everything she needs?Complete

Walking in the Wind One Direction ONHOLD
Ready to go back to 2010 with me? Amber wakes up in her childhood bedroom with a massive headache. She looks at the date and it says; April 11 2010. This can't be right, because only yesterday it was October 16 2024. But it is right, it is real. Somehow she ended up as a 16 year old in 2010, and on top of that, her sister is dragging her to the auditions for the X Factor. There she realizes, she's competing against one direction... But they don't even know they're one direction yet. Follow her on her journey to success, helping the boys come together, becoming friends with them, and maybe even fall in love. I honestly can't really cope with Liams passing so I'm writing a fanfic. This is my way of keeping Liam alive. The idea of the book is one that I pulled from an old unpublished fanfic I wrote in 2014. The idea was to travel back in time to be with one direction, which now seems something I want to do more than ever. I'll tell you now that I decided the main character will travel back from a time where Liam was still alive so she doesn't have to deal with knowing when he'll pass away. Just to keep everything light and fun. Disclaimer I'll publish as I go so sorry if you have to wait for the next chapter, but I'm uploading every other day. Normally I wouldn't publish my writing I'm too much of a perfectionist to share stuff like this but grieving alone really sucks so I'm just hoping us directioners can find comfort within each other. I'll try my best to include many personal details and events about the boys into the book but I have to leave some room for creative writing. I'm also just grieving and hurting so please let's be kind to one another.![Warrior [Completed]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/70425422-256-k84482.jpg)
