Hey! My name is Ashley and today is my first day at Jackson high school. I am only 15 years old, and I already have so much on my mind! First of all I have a little crush on this boy named Justin, and my mom made me offer to babysit my neighbors! I had a lab class with Justin, and I just started liking him, but not I have to leave. "Ashley! Are you almost ready for school? Remember u have to take the bus today!" Called my mom even though I was in the other room. " Yeah! All I need to do is put on my shoes." I said. "Ok" said my mom. "Mom?" I said. "Yeah Ashley?" "Can I skip the first day?" I asked "No! You can't skip your first day at a new high school!" Joked my mom "I mean why not?" "Because it's probably one of the most important days of school...EVER!" Said mom. "Fine" I then slumped on my backpack and walked outside the front door to wait for the bus with my head down, waiting for the death trap on 6 wheels. I walked up the stairs took a deep breath and said everything will be ok.

REMINISCENT
I frowned, thrown off "Do i...remember?" "Do you remember..." she starts but her voice falters. She glances down at the sand, biting her lip debating whether to even continue. She then takes a shaky breath and finally looks up. Eyes locking with mine " do you even remember how you got it?" Her question hits me like a slap. I open my mouth, then close it, my brows furrowing as I force my brain to rewind. How did I get it? Nothing. Not a single clear memory. She steps closer, her voice trembling, but the edge of anger sharpening her words. "Or when? Or where? Or for what reason? Or what it even means?!" I flinch at her tone, but I can't answer her. I try. God, I try.. I look down at the sand beneath my feet, forcing myself to dig through every memory, every hazy night out, every stupid decision I might've made-but nothing. Not a single moment of how I got it surfaced. I let out a frustrated breath and rake a hand through my hair, feeling the panic rise like bile in my throat. When I finally lift my head to speak, Ashley's already staring at me, and I can tell-she knows my answer before I say a word. "You don't remember," she says softly, nodding like she expected it all along. __________________________________________ Crazy thing happened...Three years ago, a tragic accident left Ashley scarred and shattered.

Every Little Thing
Caleb Jacobson has spent years building walls to protect himself-from heartbreak, from abandonment, from the girl who walked away without looking back. When Lily Summers returns senior year, all laughter and light, she brings every buried feeling crashing back to the surface. She says she wants to make things right. Caleb can't decide if he wants to let her try. What follows is a slow unraveling-of anger, of longing, of years of unspoken words-as the two navigate friendship, forgiveness, and the impossible pull between them. But healing isn't easy, and love isn't simple-not when trust is fragile, and the past refuses to stay buried. Some stories don't get second chances. But some hearts never stop hoping.

My Forever (Rewritten)
"You do have quite the temper." I whispered and saw him look down and laugh. When he looked up, he stepped closer to me and we were an inch apart. I glanced down at his lips and a million thoughts whizzed in my head. What can I say? I'm a hormonal teenage girl. When I looked back up at his eyes, he was staring at my lips. Kiss me, I thought. Do it. **** Ashley Jefferson is a high school student who believes her live is completely normal, minus the fact that she has five brothers. She volunteered to work at the ice cream building during the spring festival and that's where she meets Mason Hollis. Mason Hollis, to put in a nice way, is a cold hearted asshole. He only cares about two things. His little sister, Amber, and keeping his pack at the top. That is until he meets a certain junior in high school who volunteers at the ice cream place that he just so happened to take his little sister to. No one sees Mason as the romantic type, they only see him as the Alpha male who threatened to kill his uncle because he wanted to change the way thing ran in the pack. But no one has seen him with a mate. Will the hardass Alpha make some room in his small heart for a certain brunette? I guess we'll find out. **** So, the title says 'rewritten' because there was a different version on my profile that I wrote when I was younger, but it was complete trash. So, I rewrote it. Here you go.Complete

"Hey, babe." I rolled my eyes and ignored Jace. "Giving me the cold shoulder i see." I just kept ignoring him. Out of the corner of my eye I could see tanner staring at me. I really want to talk to him about his problem. I hate seeing him like this. "Come on stop the silence treatment, or you're gonna regret it." Fine. You wanna play this game? Lets play. "Oh fine, you got me." I smiled at him and he smiled back. "I know you couldn't keep away." Okay know hes getting really cocky. "Oh really?" I was challenging him. "Yup..." he whispered leaning in to me. I leaned in to, till i backed up back into my space letting him fall out of his chair on the floor. I smirked as everyone started laughing.
