Aston Hailfire has the mysterious ability to see the "Death Clock" - a timer floating above people's heads that shows exactly when they will die.
For a long time, he has been using this power to secretly save those around him from their fated deaths.
But one day, the Death Clock suddenly appears above his own head, showing only 20 minutes remaining.
With no direct control over the timer, Aston must use his wits, choices, and actions to change his fate before time runs out.
Can he rewrite his remaining life through his own efforts?

[@TheAmbys 2025 Favorites (Top Pick)] Bullied and bruised, Adam has survived high school by keeping his head down. Those bothered by his quiet, eccentric nature? They are the 'pretty' ones. The ones with comfortable backgrounds. The ones at the top. When an attractive transfer becomes his seat neighbour for the rest of the semester, Adam is naturally wary - partly because of her brawny sibling in senior year, and partly because she checks every box on his list of people to avoid: pretty, rich, and popular. With an angelic smile, twinkling sapphire eyes and ribbons in her golden hair, her persona screams perfection. A level he won't be able to achieve even in his quirkiest of daydreams - not like he'd ever want to. After all, despite her odd choice of friends, her playful teasing, and her persistent efforts to win his trust, isn't she just another heartless bully? ••• Featured on: @humor - DiverseLit Humor (Sept 2025) @Ambassadors - Slice Of Life (Sept 2025) @humor - Ambassadors' Monthly Pick (Oct 2025) @humor - Ambassadors' Pick List (May 2026)Complete

Forgotten
//He had my hands pinned tightly above my head as I squirmed beneath him. The blade twisting between his fingers. He held it up to my throat. I was afraid but refused to show it. "Hurt me."

Death Booth - Lawlight
Once dead, Light Yagami must face every person whose death he has caused. Five minutes, that's the time they have left before they disappear. It includes Lawlight (LxLight) This is a bl fanfic, which means boyxboy. If you don't like it, don't read it. English is not my first language so I will try my best to translate this story that was originally written in spanish. I'm sorry if I make any gramatical or spelling mistakes. Feel free to correct me. Obviously the characters and the world of Death Note in general don't belong to me, but to Tsugumi Oba. With that said, I hope you like the story.Complete![It hurts....the emptiness [reborn as Rebekah Mikealson]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/386743543-256-k568992.jpg)
