She didn't want to tell the truth. So she told a story.
One about silence, pain, and all the things you hide behind a smile.
"Life is complex, isn't it? You spend your whole life struggling to get things... things you already had easily somewhere else."
"Somewhere else?"
"Yeah. Somewhere other than reality."
"What do you mean-where?"
"In my mind."
"And how is she helping you? What does she say?"
"Always the same thing..."
"C'est pas grave, ça arrive."
A story based on things that really happened - just not in front of everyone

Amber was an ambitious 23-year-old woman who radiated poise and confidence. She refused to settle for mediocrity, instead, she wanted to be the best; she wanted nothing less than perfection. She was on track to becoming Fashionsitique's, a renowned fashion magazine's, Editor-In-Chief.

Always. ••• Sneak peek: I lifted my head and glanced at him, "This is all your fucking fault, Isaac." Isaac didn't hide his bafflement, "My fault?" He repeated. "How-" I cut him off with a shake of my head, "I should have never let you convince me to go out," I breathed out, feeling my eyes prick with unshed tears.

Living With Her
Hey there! My name is France Singleton. I'm 27, Single (If I may say...), Male (of course), Black hair, Gray eyes, fair skin, hot body, filthy rich (I don't think that's a factor), GPA of 3.8 (I'm proud of it!), likes to party, likes to drink, but most of all likes girls. But hell, girls like me more!! So, you think I'm having the time of my life? Yeah I am. I was preparing to get my Masters degree--along with some distraction along the side, can you blame me?--when my mother suddenly paid me a visit to tell that I'll be living with a girl...yes a girl! Her threat scared me, but what scared me the most was imagining what kind of girl am I going to live with for the time being. But you never know who I met at the door, the day 'she' came. Want to see how my perfect life was invaded by a woman along with my annoying subconscious? Then read on! Oh and if there're some girls looking for some good time, let me know! France signing off--for now ;) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The author here! :) This story is R-17. Not PG-17, R-17! It might contain some wild imaginations, dreams or actions from France's mind so beware (ugh..men!). So if you're this kind of person who is so innocent, never ever broken a plate or whatever in the kitchen, I suggest you avert your eyes. But of course if you're still going to read it then fine, go on. You have your agency but remember that you have a responsibility for that agency. So yeah, read or not read it's up to you!! And please, a reminder, PLAGIARISM is bad. Avoid it as much as possible. It hurts people who loves and spent precious time in their works. Our stories are our babies, so please let's discourage such act. But anyway, hope you'll like this little story of France's encounter with...well, her.Complete
Rascals
A story of a runaway heartbeat and the found family it dragged along. They move from place to place-half-lost, half-chosen-chasing quiet, hiding from the noise. It started with one girl trying to outrun the truth her family fed her, and grew into a mismatched group of escapees: her best friend, a boyfriend, two internet ghosts, and later, the ones who took the place of those who left. But people don't always stay. Sometimes they leave with a note. Sometimes they don't say anything at all. And sometimes... they come back. What happens when someone you loved left you for what they thought was your good-only to return when the damage's been done? What happens when grief makes room for someone new? And how do you know when the road you're running is finally home? --- Content Warning: •Themes of death, grief, abandonment •Found family & trauma bonding •Emotional and psychological triggers •Intimate/suggestive scenes (light smut)Complete
Suffer
Everyone suffers no matter how much we think we're alone, there maybe someone out there more disconnected from the rest of the world. If you had the power to help the other and didn't take it does that make you a bad person? If you had one chance to correct the world would you take it? If you were given one power what would it be? No matter what choice you make it will come haunting back to you. The good the bad there's a fine line between what people perceive as good and bad it's up to you to decide that.Complete
shattered souls
𝐋𝐈𝐎𝐑𝐀 𝐀𝐒𝐇𝐖𝐘𝐍 wears pain like a second skin. It's all she's ever known, etched into her bones, buried beneath forced smiles and hollow laughter. Once passionate, once burning bright, now nothing but ash and ruin. She pretends well, but behind the sharp tongue and unbothered eyes lies a girl screaming to be seen, yet terrified someone actually might. 𝐀𝐑𝐄𝐒 𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐑𝐈𝐍 was born into a world already at war with him. Pain wasn't just a chapter in his life, it was the whole book. Raised in shadows, fed by poison, his lungs filled with smoke and silence. He never asked for love. He never believed he deserved it. Drugs kept the demons quiet. Cigarettes kept his hands busy. Until her. The only good card he's ever been dealt, fragile, feral, and just as broken as him. Together, Liora and Ares are destruction wrapped in desire. A love not meant to be touched, yet impossible to resist. It's messy. Chaotic. Addictive. It's the kind of love that leaves scars, and still, they keep reaching for each other, again and again. What happens when two shattered souls try to build something whole out of ruin?Complete
How to disappear
"Come on you know none of it matters. none of it matters without this, us." {The first book in the Tethered series} Bernadette is no stranger to what lurks in the shadows and the pain it brings with it. For the better parts of her life were spent being pulled into the darkness, she learned quickly that in a world of sorrow it's better to disappear than face it. No one managed to save Bernadette from the tidal wave of anguish she rides on, until Alicia. But no good things truly last and if somethings too good to be true it's doomed to fail. Falling for the ghost who wandered its way into his life was never Hudson's plan. But then again, Hudson's plan seemed to be drowning out the existential dread about what his future entailed with stinging fingers and an ashy throat. The pair of them made no sense from an outside perspective. How could the guy who dances on heartstrings and the girl who finds solace in evanescing ever fit together. But perhaps when you bury your true self so far, the only person to get it back is someone who did the same. Unmasking the secrets kept so deep inside is a difficult task, but sometimes Love can push you into it. Indeed, they had a love to end all love. A love for the ages, one to shatter limitations and exceed all bounds. A Ghost and her Tether. :)
