It's been eight years since rockstar Chester Bennington died and it's only been a measly seven months since Emily Armstrong had gotten up to take his place. Despite being put up on such a big pedestal though, Emily doesn't feel all that different from when she was with her original band, "Dead Sara". Like- it's different, of course, but at least she fits in and is good friends with the others despite their age gaps and differences. Life's changed for her and Linkin Park, and maybe it did for the better than it was after Chester's passing. Maybe she was doing good after all by leading Linkin Park to a new era. Perhaps if Chester was still here, he would've been proud of her; but those were questions that would remain unanswered, or so she thought...Soon strange things began to happen to Emily. Peculiar things, whether that be blackbirds in the sky, weird coincidences seemingly directed at her, off-putting sensations, nearly anything. And everything seemed to lead her to come across a strange little boy who seemed just as lost as she was. And what was supposed to be a stern confrontation turned into a disturbingly "coincidental" connection, making Emily realize that who she was talking to wasn't someone from here, but was the past version of someone. Someone who she thought was long gone...

JJ Maybank x FemOC Season 1- In Progress Season 2- Not Started Season 3- Not Started Season 4- Not Started ⚠️Disclaimer: This story is made by me as well as Ai. I do NOT take full credit, only part. If some parts of the story don't add up or make sense it is most likely because of the Ai but I will try my best to find each mistake and fix it (feel free to comment if a mistake of any kind is found)⚠️ One decision was all it took to destroy her life. Elaine Pankow is a 16-year-old city girl through and through-fierce, loyal, brave, and sharp-tongued, with a jealous streak that burned. New York was her world. She knew how to dress, how to walk, how to survive. But one night, one mistake, and everything she knew was ripped out from under her. Her father, a cold and demanding businessman, died suddenly of a heart attack after a late night at the office. And just like that, her mother shipped her off to the Outer Banks to live with her aunt; Aunt Josie-a sweet woman who called Elaine Bee and tried too hard to fill a role she didn't ask for. Josie's beach house was beautiful-small but perfect, only a few hundred yards from the ocean-but to Elaine, it felt like exile. She didn't belong here. Not in a place where everyone knew each other's names, where sand stuck to your feet, and where heels had no use. Elaine and the Outer Banks? They didn't mix. But when a group of local teens with sun-kissed skin and trouble in their veins crash into her life, everything begins to shift. They don't care where she came from or what she's hiding. They pull her into a world of treasure hunts, secrets, rebellion, and even romance-and for the first time, she starts to feel something close to free. But trust here is earned, not given. And the past doesn't stay buried for long. The Outer Banks might just break her... or finally show her who she really is.
Sanctuary
She wasn't supposed to matter. Not like this. Not enough to make me break my own rules. But the way she looked at me- Like I was the only safe thing in a world that never gave her one- Changed everything. This isn't a love story. It's survival. And maybe... It's something more. I wasn't looking to be saved. People like me don't get rescued. We survive. Quietly. Carefully. Alone. But then she looked at me like I wasn't broken- Like I was worth staying for. She doesn't know what I've done to make it this far. She doesn't know what I am. And if she ever finds out... Will she still stay?Complete

The Teacher: AKA My Best Friend's Mom (GxG) (TeacherxStudent)
Her ass hit the front of her desk and there was nowhere else for her to go. I didn't give it a second thought before plastering my lips onto her own. The kiss held fire, and I made sure to give it all I had. I trailed my right hand ever so slightly down her torso, getting closer and closer to the top of the black dress pants she had on today. I hooked a finger in the waistband of her pants before ceasing my movements and moving my mouth beside her ear. "Don't be a tease," I breathed, then walked out the door leaving her dishevelled and horny. Karma's a bitch. R-Rated. Beware, Highly Gay. Trigger Warning- may include scenes relating to rape, death, suicide, self-harm, masturbation, and sex.Complete

From Silence to Fury ---Emily Armstrong
'Only stopping close infront of me, she fixates me with her gaze. I can feel her breath on my face as I shift my eyes to her lips. They look so soft. I wish I could press mine against them. Caressing them with my tongue. Tasting her warmth. Shyly I look back up. Seeing her blue iris. The dark lashes framing their almond shape. We're close. Extremly close. Only one more step and our mouths would touch. I can feel the tension building up. Electric sparks dancing between us. Our breaths going fast, exhaling through our parted lips. And just as I get the courage to close the gap, the door is being opened.' -> for the best experience listen to the songs in the titles of each chapter
