Because of you by tinnabluehour

She was a girl who never knew love-never truly felt happiness. Then came the sunshine, warm and radiant, and for the first time, her world began to bloom. But one mistake... and everything changed. The girl who never dared to dream began to daydream. She started hoping. Expecting. Believing. But what if those dreams were illusions? What if the very thing that brought her joy ends up being the reason she breaks? Will she ever find real happiness? Will she ever learn to love herself, without needing someone else to show her how? The sunshine lit up her life-but in its fading, it left a shadow. A stain on her heart. All because of her.

The Seven Deadly Sins (girlxgirl) by Spencer_Lorenzi

"Sometimes the hardest thing in life is accepting that no matter what you do, you can't plan for everything to end accordantly. Sometimes, it's the mere fact of trying that causes things to unfold in the most unexpected ways. And sometimes, allowing one small change in your daily life can cause the biggest ripple effect. For me, the change in my daily routine came in form of a girl with purple eyes and black wings. Our first encounter, whether an answer to one of my many forgotten prayer, alternate my view of reality. Unbeknownst to me, Alexandra McCartney was a walking sin waiting to be forgiven, and I was the answer to her silent prayers." Fixtured with routines and habits, Skylar Charms has only even known one thing; nothing is permanent and everything is subject to change. It was a lesson she learned early on in life and because of it, she was contempt with finding familiarity in the inconsequential routines she established. For Skylar, she was okay with being simple because with simplicity comes a sense of innocence, something she couldn't find anywhere else in her new home town. What was meant to be a routine school year for Skylar toppled when she met Alexandra McCartney, who unlike her, found familiarity in the chaos of things. All it took, however, was one insignificant answer for a saint to meet a forgivable sinner. (Cover model - Candice Swanepoel) Update: Currently being edited with small detail changes and added information. All chapters until "Abnormal" have been improved upon.

365 Days by devanpaige

COMPLETED *NOT THE 365 DNI FILM* ****************************************** 'On the field after Wills friends party. I remember, the story you told me. Who were you talking about?' 'I think you know who I was talking about Paige' he looks me in the eyes and I feel my whole world turn to mush. Oh My God. 'You said you were falling in love with me?' My lungs feel like they're about to burst. Why is it so fucking hard to breath right now. I scoot closer to him so that our knees were touching. He looks deep into my eyes. 'I did, I still am' he almost whispers. I suck in a breath and feel a new wave of confidence come over me, I slowly lean in until we are barely apart. ****************************************** By the time you turn 18 you've most likely already experienced your first 'love', first heartbreak and first case of drama that comes with all those things. This was not the case for Paige, an 18 year old who was relatively quiet but loved nothing more than the idea of being of significance to someone. Believing that when you find the person you're destined to be with, nothing will stand in the way of that. So When she finally lands with Paul, her crush for as long as she can remember, she gets a shock when an unexpected source causes her to question everything she ever believed in.

The Unbreakable Thread Of LOVE by KNH1111111

What is Love? Is it merely a fleeting emotion, or could True Love truly last forever? What of the elusive Thread of Love-is it strong enough to endure the trials of time, or can it snap under the weight of despair? And what of love at first sight? Is it a genuine phenomenon, or simply a figment of our imagination? Picture this: a Girl meets a Boy for the first time, and in that moment, they discover feelings that ignite something deep within them-something they never knew existed. What is this sensation that takes hold of their hearts? But how did they come to meet? Ah, that is where the story unfolds. They encounter each other during a practice-a practice that seems mundane at first but holds the potential for something extraordinary. What kind of practice, you ask? That's for you to discover later, as revealing too much now would spoil the thrill of the journey ahead. Yet, let's not ignore the shadows that linger over the Girl. Before this moment, she was shrouded in darkness, carrying a burden that weighed heavily on her heart. Why does she hurt so deeply? Trust me, you'll come to understand her pain-and perhaps, you'll find that in the depths of their shared experiences, they may forge an unbreakable bond that even the harshest trials cannot sever. The tale is just beginning. Stay tuned, for the true essence of their story lies ahead, waiting to be unraveled.

Eyes full of stars | ✔️ by GwenBoleyn

"I can't breathe when he's not around and when he is I just feel... scared." Felicity frowned. "Scared?" "Yes, scared to death. Scared of touching him, that if I do it he will disappear right in front of my eyes, like a ghost. Scared that, on the contrary, he will get closer to me and I have no doubt that, in that case, I would be lost forever." "Would it be that terrible?" Felicity smirked. "Getting lost with him?" Lily's smile became larger, her eyes now glowing like her skin. There was no need to say more. * * * Lily is in love with the Sebastian, he barely knows she exists... until his best friend Toby comes to town. An accident makes Lily forget of the two men.

Trials and Consequences of Love by tori-ann_

Valentina-Rosa young and innocent first understood the true trials and consequences of love when she met Carson Dean; though he too was young he was nowhere near innocent. Carson is a man not short of sins but he was the first man Valentina-Rosa had ever been with and so no matter what he put her through she would stick beside him because to her everything he did was an act of love. That was until one summer due to certain unfortunate events Carson had to move to the other side of the County to finish his two years of university, after spending her third year in her hometown she followed him across the county. There she saw Carson for who he truly was: a monster. She struggled her way through a world for pain, abuse, and drugs; she encountered a mistress who was probably in a worse situation than she was and she came to realize that Carson was an even worse person than she had thought him to be. But the move did her as much good as it did her harm; she made friends there, friends she will have forever and from that friend group, she met an intriguing French man. Love, at first sight, blossomed into friendship and friendship transformed itself into a beautiful relationship.
