Everyone sees Mira Whitmore.
The flawless rich girl. The perfect student. The most popular girl at Blackwell Academy. Her life is something out of a teen dream-on the outside. But behind the mansion walls and designer clothes, Mira is hiding a truth that would shatter everything:
She's starving. She's bruised. And she's completely alone.

Every night, Mira's older brother drags her into the basement to take out his rage on her. Her parents-respected, admired-turn a blind eye, always siding with their golden son. At school, she wears makeup over her wounds and a smile over her silence. No one sees the cracks in the porcelain.

Until Rowan Vale arrives.
New to town. Quiet. Observant. And nothing like the rest. He sees through her mask-and gently, patiently, begins to uncover the girl beneath it. When Mira finally confesses her truth, Rowan gives her one promise:
"If it ever happens again... text me one word. Bluebird. And I'll come."

But when Mira's world falls apart for the last time and her phone is on 1% battery, she has one chance to be saved.

A story of pain, courage, and first love-When No One Looks is about the monsters we hide, the people who see us anyway, and the strength it takes to finally be free.All Rights Reserved

Blood Runs Thicker by Elora_Elysia

The first time Mira saw him, he was bleeding. A cold night. A flickering streetlamp. He sat on the curb, knuckles split, blood dripping onto the pavement like ink staining a page. She should have walked away. Should have pretended she didn't see him. But she didn't. Instead, she crouched beside him, her voice soft but steady. "Who did this to you?" He laughed-a low, bitter sound. "Does it matter?" Mira didn't know his name yet. But when their eyes met, something inside her recognized him. Not his face. Not his voice. His pain. Because she had the same kind buried in her bones. --- His name was Riven. And trouble followed him like a shadow. He never spoke about his past. Never explained the bruises. Never asked for help. But Mira saw the anger in his fists, the exhaustion in his shoulders. The war he fought every time he looked in the mirror. And despite herself, she stayed. Even when he told her to leave. Even when his darkness bled into her light. Even when she knew-this would destroy her. --- One night, he showed up at her door, drenched in rain, eyes empty. "I did something bad." Mira's breath caught. "What did you do?" Riven didn't answer. He just looked at her, jaw clenched, chest rising and falling like he was trying to breathe through whatever monster was clawing at his ribs. And she knew. It wasn't just a fight this time. It wasn't just another wound to clean up. He had crossed a line. And now, there were only two options-run, or drown with him. Mira should have been afraid. Should have shut the door, called the police, saved herself. But love made people stupid. So she stepped forward, wiped the blood from his cheek, and whispered, "Then we leave. Together." Because blood runs thicker than water. And love? Love was the thing that made you stay-even when you knew it would kill you.

The Stillness Between Two Hearts by WrittenByWelsh

𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑆𝑡𝑖𝑙𝑙𝑛𝑒𝑠𝑠 𝐵𝑒𝑡𝑤𝑒𝑒𝑛 𝑇𝑤𝑜 𝐻𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑡𝑠 Kai lives like the world doesn't touch him-late nights, forgotten classes, and memories he doesn't talk about. When his mother forces him to start visiting his dying grandmother in the hospital every weekend, he doesn't expect much to change. Until he meets Mira. Room-bound and quietly brave, Mira is a girl who's lived more years inside hospital walls than out. She writes poems she never reads aloud and dreams of rooftops she might never reach. She's fighting a battle she rarely speaks of-and she stays, while everyone else leaves. In the stillness between IV drips and heart monitors, two strangers find a rhythm of their own. As Mira's condition worsens and Kai's grief deepens, they cling to starlit secrets, shared music, and the fragile beauty of a connection they never saw coming. Some love stories are built on forever. Theirs begins in borrowed time.

Blackout by Maggiewing

Seventeen year old Lana Wright has never had it easy. She was a mistake, or so her mother told her. With a broken home and friends who hate her, she feels as though there's almost nothing to look forward to, besides her upcoming eighteenth birthday, but one day, as she's walking home from school, she passes out, and is rescued by five heroes who show her that there is so much more to life than she thought. *Exerpt* “Harry? Is she up?” asked a slightly high-pitched male voice from what was assumedly down the hall. A second boy trotted up behind the curly haired boy in the doorway. The new guy had straight, flippy, light brown hair and high arched eyebrows. He saw me and smiled. “Yep, Louis, she’s up. I came in to find her digging through my dirty laundry.” said the first boy, who had been addressed as Harry. I reddened at the light brown haired boy’s entertainment with this. “I wasn’t digging through his laundry.” I mumbled. Louis raised one eyebrow. “Where the heck am I?” I said, changing the subject. Harry and Louis looked surprised, “Oh sorry, you must be so confused right now. We found you blacked out in the side of the road.” said Harry, chuckling a bit. “So you just… rescued me?” I said.

Beauty & Her Bruises by anonymousamyleeme

When you feel like your world comes crashing down, you just want to die. When you fall, you don't want to get up. When you're hit, you let it back. When you bleed, you watch it trickle down your body. When you're broken into millions of pieces, you let the pieces lay there. When you're dying inside, you don't make a noise. Zara is the girl in the back of the classroom who's afraid to voice her opinion against everyone else. She's afraid to look anyone in the eyes. She's even afraid to trudge down the halls of the school but she does it because she has two things keeping her there. 1) Liam. Her best friend. He's the reason that she's not dead, literally. She's never attempted to suicide but her classmates have attempted to kill her. He's the big, muscular teddy bear that every girl wants on their shoulders. The only reason he hangs with Zara? He has a secret that, if found out, he would be in Zara's position. 2) Father. Even though she has bruises from being beat, broken toes from heels, and mental scars from the names, it's much less worse than what father does to her. Of course, no one knows he does it. If Liam found out, he would be her knight in shining armor. Unfortunately when they have a falling out, Liam isn't there to save her when she needs him the most.
