"Thanks..." I mumbled.

"For what?" Lucas asked, staring at me; with his eyebrows furrowed.

"For being a good person. There are not a lot of people out there like that." I told him, referring to mostly everyone at school.

"Of course there are, Macey. You're just not looking in the right place." 
----

Macey Owens isn't exactly popular. Scratch that, she isn't popular at all. In fact, she has absolutely no friends. Being the school's outcast doesn't exactly earn you a spot at the popular table with the elite Lexi Abrams and her crew. Just the opposite, in fact. So when Macey bumps into sweet and quirky Lucas Matthews, after one of Lexi's tauntings, she expects him to walk away like everyone else.

But what happens when he doesn't? 

What happens when he wants to save her from Lexi? 

And more importantly: save her from herself?

Logan by braindeadwriter06

*TW* Contains topics and scenes of sexual assault, self-harm, abuse.* "You know you loved every second of it," I can feel the tears welling up as well as the anger building up within me. I stare at him for a while before I have to turn away from his hungry gaze. "Look I just came here to tell you that I forgive you for what you did back in Cali and I'll take you back," "You forgive me?" I yell. "I did nothing to you. You raped me! You fucking raped me! You have no right to come here and tell me that. You. Forgive. Me. You traumatized me. What you did to me tore me up inside and was eating away at me until I tried to kill myself. And when I told people they didn't believe me. I had to listen to so many people talk about how great a guy you were and how I clearly just regretted sleeping with you. You are a monster. You made me hate myself for something that was never my fault. You have caused me so much pain and suffering," I pause to take a deep breath. "So you don't get to come here to my school and tell me you forgive me. You don't get to make me feel bad about coming forward. The only thing I regret is ever thinking you were a good person." _____________________________________________ Logan Young is a 16-year-old girl about to start her senior year in a brand new town.

Saved Me by lovelysilencexo

TRIGGER WARNING One of the most calming things in the world is listening to the sound of waves - not sound waves, but the beach waves. Just sit still, close your eyes, and listen. Don't pay attention to anything else, just the waves. Here I was, soaked head to toe, smelling like salt water, listening to the sound of the waves at three in the morning. How did I end up here you may ask? I tried committing suicide. And some idiot saved me. After a tragic accident that led to the death of her parents two years ago, Abigail Evans moved into her aunt's home in Belmar, NJ. During that summer, she just happens to bump in Roman Carter - mysterious, handsome, and the person that just happened to save her life. All Abigail wants is to leave. All Roman wants to do is to find out everything he can about Abigail. What happens when these two collide?

But will things really be so boring still when she meets 'bad-boy' Noah Dalton? He is annoying, rude and always around Maya for reasons she can't understand. Maya is brave, yet also afraid that her choices could lead her spiralling back into a bad place again. Will Noah be able to save her from herself? Or will he be the cause of her destruction? ---------------------------- ~Noah's pov~ 'These,' I slowly run my finger across one of her scars, 'are fucking beautiful.' Before she can object, I carry on. 'Maya you are beautiful beyond perfection. You are strong. You are brave. You are funny. You are sweet. You are incredible. Look at yourself,' I nod down towards the scars on her arm and she slowly glances down at them before meeting my gaze again, 'those scars are beautiful. Do you know why?' I ask her. She wipes a tear from her already tear-stricken face before she shakes her head. 'Because every time you decided to do that to yourself, you didn't go further, you didn't end your life. You decided to carry on living even when you thought you couldn't manage it. Those scars right there,' I gesture to them again, 'show the battles you won against yourself. They are your battle-scars and you shouldn't be ashamed of them. And you know what? I am so proud of you for making it to where you are today because you are a fighter and If I can see that, anyone can.'
