I've been swimming with the current my whole life, just going with things. Moving away from the town I was born in? Okay. Moving to downward spiral seeming Chicago? Okay. Moving back to Port Mallory? Yes. Becoming a mermaid and competing with my rival for a guy I also like and known for my whole life? Not my idea.

Olivia Colbert has moved back to Port Mallory. All her life her parents have told her when she turns fourteen, she must always say no to old the old family secret which has been denied by her grandparents, parents, and older brothers. But Olivia is different from all of them, and while she struggles to cope and hide this new fish tail, she discovers the story of why her great-grandmother really moved from France. And that she's still alive.

This story is a work in progress, and I have also published it on another website originally but I want to bring it to Wattpad to get a bigger potential audience. I am entering it in the Wattys2015, so please vote me!

NOTICEY NOTICE: This story is not mature!! Yes, fifth graders, you may read this!! -points to the kids in the back of the room-. There is a conversation in it about alchohol (by the way don't drink underage) and okay, one dead body so far, but otherwise, I'd say this story can be read by 11 and up.All Rights Reserved

Atlantis Academy: The First Element by AutumnKalquist

Five Star Reviews for Atlantis Academy: "Omg this book was amazing I couldn't put it down or stop reading. I carried it with me open on my phone while I did everything just to keep reading. I need more of all of this. Epic story, epic content, epic visuals, just epic. LOVE THIS!" "Once I got into this story, I did not stop reading it. This is a beautiful story about a very awkward girl who is riven with so much pain and angst and yet... this makes her who she is and shapes her into the person she will become. The world she finds herself awakened to is magical and yet filled with the all-too-familiar cliques and tribes of the very human people who inhabit it. One word to describe the story: beautiful!" "The story pulls you headlong to the end and leaves you wanting to shout "No! Not yet!" ...If there were 6 stars, I would have given it that." *** Humanity is one secret society away from extinction. The children of Atlantis use magic to keep us safe. If they make it through the Academy. Hi, I'm Lyric. And I'm kind of a mess. ADHD, that's me. I'm a high school drop-out, late everywhere I go, and one screw-up away from being homeless. I'm a loner, and I like it that way. Who needs friends when you have a Redwood forest nearby? Trees never bully me like the kids did at school. Or get drunk and throw things at my head. After my mom died, I figured life couldn't get much worse. I thought it might even get better. Ha. The universe has a great sense of humor. I should've listened to the rumors about evil spirits. About the angry, ancient magical creatures haunting our small Oregon Coast town. But did I? No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. 'Cause now I'm in a battle for my life. A whole new world has opened up... a magical world I don't understand. And the blood in my veins says I belong here. But I have to prove myself to save myself. And when have I ever done that?

With so many odds against them can they find a way to power through together? Or will they be struck down? You know what they say. If you can't run then walk. If you can't walk then crawl. If you can't crawl.... Then maybe try swimming.

Jesse's Girl (COMPLETE) by xHeatLifex

They had both been dealt enough tragedy in their short teenaged lives, more than anyone should ever have to endure. Will two self destructive teens coming together do more harm than good? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I don't know what came over me. The poor guy just asked if he could help and I went all 'crazy psycho bitch' on his ass. I couldn't breath. I needed water. I needed air. Fuck why was is it so hot in here. Was it the fact that the moment his hand left my skin I felt an unbearable need to feel his touch again or was it hearing him ask if I needed help that made me feel helpless and broken once again. I didn't know what it was but I felt like I was suffocating, like the jersey I was wearing was strangling every ounce of oxygen from body. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * This story had been reviewed recently. There are now added scenes and further edits - 2024 *

Dive by H__Blanca

SOPHIE BROOKS: Party, hook-up, hangover, repeat. I don't do rules, responsibility, or monogamy. So when the chance to sleep with the hottest Olympian swimmer in the country presents itself, you can be damn sure I take it. And sneak out before he wakes up the next morning. This has been my way of life for years, and nothing has challenged it. Until him. Charming, ambitious, he draws me in and then refuses to leave. He's persistent, annoyingly so, keeps coming back like a damn boomerang. And he's getting a little too close, asking a little too many questions. Questions I refuse to answer. Some things are just supposed to stay forgotten. JAYDEN SENNELS: Swimming is my life. I basically breathe water. Growing up the way I did, going to the Olympics seemed like an unattainable dream. But here I am, just fresh out of my first games, and I messed up. Big time. Everything was riding on me doing well. Failing wasn't an option. Now I have one last year at college to redeem myself. Enter her. Tall, confident, she seduces me, refuses to tell me her name, and has me waking up to an empty bed. She is an enigma, and there is most definitely something she's not telling me. From the moment I saw her, I knew. This woman is trouble in high heels. She will destroy me. And I am going to love it. 🏊‍♂️ WARNING: Strong language and sexual content. This is a book about when the past comes back to haunt you. Book #1 in the Medley series

Ocean Blue | gxg ✓ by Olivaughn

[Wattpad's Summer Reading Checklist 2022 Pick] "'Hella heavy' is your response to seeing me with a literal fish tail?" "Sorry. Should ... should it be something else? Wait, does this mean that you can't eat sushi?" * * * * * When Alyssa shows up in Hulhazy Front a week after wiping the memory of her partner, she's terrified of ruining everything again. Her brother and dad are convinced she'll be okay as soon as she's able to "move on", which makes no sense to her, because they sound like the exact same thing. Alyssa doesn't care about moving on--she just cares about hiding the fact that she's a mermaid from this new small town, and especially her new coworker, Elliot. Elliot has spent the past year trying to figure out how to be out. It seems that every time she finds some kind of balance, something has to happen. Her parents say something homophobic before she's about to confess her "big secret," or her old friends from the swim team make some jab about all the things they're convinced Elliot did sophomore year. She's planning on her summer consisting of working at the public pool, hiding her sexuality, and third-wheeling it up with her best friends, Neema and Duncan. Until, of course, she meets Alyssa. *cover created using graphics from freepik*
