Superstar And Me
"It's been a week since I've been here and haven't felt have leaving the house at all. Nowhere else would ever feel the same." "That's because you're living with a family right now and this is not just a house. It's a home." I put my finger as a bookmark and settle deeper into my position. "You like the lively air of it, that's different from a hotel of the same kind." "That's true. But what I'd meant by saying it won't be the same is that - you won't be there." Before I can open the book, my hands still. His attention pulls mine. And he smiles with a sadness of the sentiment. "I like talking to you, hearing your rational thoughts on everything except your privacy." His cheek puffs with a half smile. ---- Superstar's Staycation Spoils my Vacation Some superstar idol with pale face and handsome charm crashes my stay with my grandparents and thinks he can get a wonderful small-town homely time out of my peaceful vacation break. My grandparents agreed. So, now I've to show the foreigner around and teach him the ways of local lives. Yea, dream on, stranger. Imma only show him around our courtyard and teach him to respect privacy. Starting with sticking to his AC room and not stepping into mine, very unnecessarily. If only my brain wasn't so strict on the principle, my heart wouldn't have defied it. (Img from pinterest)Complete

Where the Sun Finds Us
🌤️ Where the Sun Finds Us Sometimes, the light you've been chasing... finds you first. In the middle of her midlife crisis, Lei thought the chaotic part of her life was finally over. But sometimes, in the midst of all the noise, that's where new stories begin. One day, she receives an unexpected scholarship to Celestra Republic's most prestigious academy - a school for the nation's brightest minds and top celebrities completing their mandatory academic enlistment. Lei's plan was simple: a fresh start. Quiet. Far from everything that once hurt. But instead of peace, she found five of the country's most famous personalities - each carrying a secret behind their spotlight. A golden-retriever boy with tired eyes. A med student who laughs to hide his guilt. A gentle heir who has everything, except the courage to be real. A composed idol adored by millions but haunted by a past he can't face. And his best friend - someone who somehow feels familiar, even though they've just met. But Lei is different. She's the contrast - the calm to their chaos. She was raised in a home filled with warmth, where love was steady, laughter was constant, and kindness was taught not through words, but through how people treated one another. And that kind of upbringing - she slowly begins to bring it back to the people she meets in Celestra. To those who've forgotten what real happiness feels like. To those who've learned to fake smiles just to survive. Because that's what she was taught - to give the same gentleness she was once given. To be the kind of light that doesn't blind, but heals. And maybe, as she helps them find their own sunshine, Lei will learn how to become the light she's been searching for all along. Because sometimes, you don't have to chase the sun. Sometimes, you just have to be the warmth someone else has been searching for. ✨ A story about kindness passed down, love rediscovered, and how the way we're raised can shape the light we bring into the world.
Cynical Souls
COMPLETED✅ Two high school teenagers finding themselves, analyzing this ever changing world, and building love. This is the type of love you wish you found in high school but probably know way too well that it only exists as fiction. Today I'm turning my fiction to reality. ❣️•••❣️ Excerpt: Just as I was about to seek shelter under some building's roof, the tires of a car come to a halt, I wonder who might pity the lonely girl walking in the rain. The passenger window rolls down, and I spot the most unexpected person seated behind the wheel. "Get in" comes out his voice, and I must've stood there agape for a few moments because next comes his rhetorical question. "Are you getting in or continuing walking in the rain?" Eyebrows raised expectantly. He sounds annoyed, like he regrets his decision to ever stop and help me. ❣️•••❣️ #5 in cynical #2 in loveandfriendship #1 in opinionated #4 in ihatelife #10 in nerdgirl #10 in HighschoolRomance #26 in GoodGirlBadBoy *contains mature themes. *contains cursing.Complete
Pretty, Popular and Partnered
“Every girl wants to be pretty, popular and partnered.” I, Poppy Lake, need help. I seem incapable of functioning like a normal teenage girl; I’m not pretty, popular and I’ve never so much as held a boy’s hand let alone had a boyfriend. Wherever girls learn how to do this stuff, I need to find out. Do they have some secret society or something where they discover these skills? I’m thirteen and I hardly know how make friends. Funnily enough, that’s almost the least of my worries. My hair has not grown at all in the last two months and the little hair I have is frizzy and dull. I can’t wake up without it looking like a puffball and my attempts to grow it out have failed. The flakes of dry skin on my legs were bugging me so I tried to scrap them off but they were everywhere and rubbing my hand up and down my shin only revealed I needed to shave my legs. At some point, my thighs and tummy had expanded without me noticing (although how I missed that I don’t know) and now I looked like an elephant. Unfortunately, my ears support this look by being perpendicular to my head. I pulled my trousers back down and caught sight of at least another ten spots emerging on my forehead, chin and neck. I’ve tried squeezing them, putting toothpaste on them and even skipping chocolate for two weeks, but spots remain stubbornly there whatever I do. Why does my body feel the need to punish me so much? I threw myself on my bed so I wouldn’t have to look at my horrible, imperfect face in the mirror any more. “Urgh,” I moaned into the covers. There was a lot going wrong in my life: 1. My face is hideous; 2. I’m fat; 3. None of the clothes I own are remotely stylish; 4. I have never been asked out; 5. The most popular girl at school hates me; 6. And I fancy her boyfriend. ---- Based off How To Be Popular by Meg Cabot, the story follows Poppy, a young girl in a situation similar to Steph's who gets personal advice from the mentor herself.Complete![FOCUS [BXB]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/403189039-256-k154097.jpg)
FOCUS [BXB]
Like a bolt of lightning, this stupid boy appeared in my life. First day of summer break between first and second grade, he just appeared- standing on my porch like he was born there. Straight brown hair, wide dark eyes and a fresh sunburn across his cheeks. He was already talking before I even opened the door. I don't know how it happened but it's been ten years. And he's still here. Talking, whether or not I'm listening. Laughing, even if no one else is. He's still too quick- racing around the world like he's scared he's going to miss it. He's gotten taller...much taller. His hair is a little longer, a little wavier, but under the light it still looks the same golden brown it did when we were nine. And now, finally, he was a high school graduate. We both were. Like a bolt of lightning he appeared and like the sun he refused to disappear. _____________________________________________ I fell asleep with my chin pointed at him, the outline of his face being the last thing I saw. How was I supposed to do this? It had always been difficult, hiding this secret, keeping him close. But now, my focus was starting to slip. I couldn't see anything but his lips, his hands, his smile. I couldn't hear anything but my name in his mouth, his jagged breaths and that loud laugh. How am I supposed to be okay with this? How am I supposed to focus on anything other than him? #1- slowburn- 11.10.25🥇 #1- friends to lovers- 11.01.25🥇 #1- fluffandsmut- 11.02.25🥇 #1- college- 11.06.25🥇 #1- best friends- 11.12.25🥇 #1- teammates- 12.04.25 🥇 #1- college roommates- 12.30.25🥇 #1- mental health- 01.02.2026 🥇 #1- gay love- 01.02.2026 🥇 #2- roommates- 12.18.25🥈 #3- bxblove- 11.30.25🥉 #4- boyxboy- 11.01.25 #4- lgbt- 11.15.25 #14- boyxboyromance- 12.15.25 #22- basketball- 12.15.25Complete

How to Lose Your Virginity like a F***** Slut
Life was simple; one day you're born without your knowledge, and the next you're getting screwed over, again and again. It happened to everyone, no one was truly spared from it. Some people though, had it easier, while others got screwed over frequently. No matter who you were though, you were going to lose your virginity, if not physically, figuratively. Life had no preference in that regard even if you were seen as the perfect image of the next Hollywood girl. Sydney Diana Joyce was that girl; the image of perfection. The kind of girl people expected to see in magazines and movies from her looks alone. Those who knew her however, only ever saw her as the Apex predator, the kind who always caught her prey. It was the life that Sydney embraced well into her early 20's until one careless night led her to cross path with Octavia Olympia. Octavia 'Parker' Olympia, was the definition of average. Average looks, average personality, and an average life. There was nothing special about Olivia, unless you count her mismatch eye colors, that made her stand out. She was just Octavia, Parker to most, and she was content with that. It was only when she left the Cafe Store open past hours one night that her life would go from average to unexplainable. From talks of movies, to finding similarities in their lifestyles from adored fictional characters they've seen on the big screen, Sydney and Olivia spent their times lost in their own fictional world, caught up in the game of make believe. It was only when their personal life started colluding with one another that they soon realize how different they truly are. From business to pleasure, Sydney soon finds herself struggling to decide whether she wants to be the Apex predator she's known for or if she wants to play the role of the American dream girl people expect her to be. One way or another though, Sydney was going to screwed over, so she might as well do it like a f****** slut.
