academy backstabbing bestfriend friendship music myyouth school singing surprise therestofus youngadultreads

When sixteen year old Madison Kearney makes the decision to move across the country to attend the arts academy of her dreams, she has no idea that she'll learn a lot more than how to improve her voice.

So when a seemingly friendly girl wants nothing more than to make Madison disappear out of the academy, she realises that life at the academy is not always filled with fairies and butterflies. 

By the end of it all, she comes to the conclusion that the best way to learn how to face the tolls that come with attending one of the most prestigious schools in the country is to gain help from:
1. A spotlight dependent violinist who doesn't seem to know what the word 'modest' means
2. An oblivious trumpeter who often takes trips to la-la land 
And 3. An icing despising guitarist who persists he has a secret genie.

And she learns that some surprises are better than others.All Rights Reserved

Academy (DISCONTINUED) by VirtualPreston

Imagine if there was a school that was only spoken about through whispered rumours. A school that didn't focus on testing or homework to prove the intelligence of its students, but instead focused on imagination and creativity. The R.J. Academy of Inspired Arts has been using this way of thinking for years, inviting the most promising children to live within its walls and learn from professionals. Students will usually graduate with their futures secure. Simon Brokenbell is a completely average thirteen year old boy. There's nothing about him that really stands out to people, or at least that's his opinion. He's a victim of bullying, having moved from school to school for years until there were no schools left. But he still has one hope; The R.J. Academy of Inspired Arts. He's practically desperate to get his hands on the five year scholarship that's offered. He's too boring though. They'd never let in a normal kid. Cover art drawn by the wonderful Kingcart132!

Heir of Charms by mollylavenza

Destruction. In a family of healers who save, all I do is destroy. My enforced solitude is for my own safety as well as that of the world, or so my mother tells me. When the boy next door beckons, I can't help but sneak out to forge a friendship with him. Loneliness leads me to defy my family, but desperation prevails when I discover that the grounds of his private academy hold a secret that could help me learn why my ability is so disastrous . . . or push me to create a catastrophe that will bring only death and destruction. *** Merith Leigh has decided to give herself the best sixteenth birthday present ever: freedom. She's spent the last two years in silent communication with Taran, the boy next door, and his encouragement to meet him beyond their bedroom window views has tempted her to finally break free of her family's bonds. With a leap of faith, she trusts Taran with her future, and he takes her to meet his friends at his private academy, where a secret society that studies magic lurks with secrets of their own. Can Taran and his classmates help her discover why she carries the gift of destruction rather than her family's skill at healing, or will their association prove deadly?

Band X by jensheridanpropp

Carter Rose is a loner and she likes it that way. She is content to hide in her bedroom as she actively avoids her overly-cheerful classmates and well meaning but often domineering mother. At least, this is what she tells herself. One encounter with the talkative and hyper Isabelle changes everything and Carter suddenly finds herself thrust into the limelight as the lead singer of a band with an ever changing name and dubious future. Carter never wanted to have friends. And she certainly didn't want to sing outside the sanctuary of her bedroom. But, as they say, sometimes, even if you don't get what you want, you get what you need.

Let It Out by Azuriko_Kito

Featured by @StoriesUndiscovered for the month of September 2023 on their reading list "Curiosity Cupboard" Tied for 1ST PLACE in the Rising Star Awards 2023 in the category Short Story and Oneshots. Caleb has a gift: He can sing. But not sing just like any other kid, he might as well be the next pop star of the century. But... no one knows about it because he sings in secret. Why, you ask? Well, it's because he doesn't want others to know him. He's extremely shy. Yep that's right. Caleb is just as shy as how much he loves to sing. His introverted self doesn't allow him to just sing whenever he wants. So he finds time whenever he's alone. When at last everyone leaves him alone, oh how amazing and wonderful his voice echoes out all along the walls of anywhere he can be alone. His amazing talent, however, one day lures in an audience. Together with his newfound 'friend' sworn to keep his singing secret, they find a way to make Caleb's talent known and help him finally face his demons: attention. ----------------------------------------------------------- This is my first attempt at a short story. Although I've tried to turn it into a full on novel, my creative brain can't go that far with this... Anyway, I hope you enjoy! Feel free to comment, vote, and maybe follow me if 'ya want? Also if you're interested in my writing, I have actual novels in the works. Just check my profile for more info. Happy reading!!

Because You Love Me by eternity_xx

*Completed* ||"Actually, Mr Parker. We were showing the new girl to her class." Seth says as he pushes me forward, in front of the whole class. Seriously, how many people can they have in one class? There are like fifty people in here! "Oh! And who do we have here?" Mr Parker asks. I remember him; he used to be my English teacher. I sigh and look to the class, my eyes instantly lock with the most gorgeous blue eyes. His messy blonde hair is styled in a sexy looking quiff, you can see the muscles showing from his thin grey shirt and he looks to be quite tall, even though he's sitting down. It's only a second before I realised who it is, Jaydon Hamilton. I don't move my eyes away from him as I speak. "Hazel Williams." The whole class gasps.|| Hazel Williams has had a tough life, things went wrong when she was young. So she put on weight, dyed her hair and was bullied by pretty much everyone in her school.

Front Line by Julianna_Monroe

Being on the front line doesn't always mean facing the obvious, being on the front line can be as simple as facing life head-on with no clue where you're going. Life is as much of a front line in the wider perspective than the narrower of that of a battle, where the enemy is known and destination is everywhere but backwards. Therefore in life everyone has a story, this is no different. This story tells the story of Julianna Monroe (Name changed to hide/protect myself), and how even the simple things in life can alter the future in the most minute of ways. Not everything in life has to be all song and dance for it to be interesting and diverse, the story of Julianna's life will show and connect to those with lives just the same as hers who are not able to speak about their experiences. Her story begins when she is around 3-4 years old, just about to start the very first away-from-home experience children in the United Kingdom are encouraged to do. Nursery. Here kids just like Julianna are given the freedom and chance to explore outside of the home environment, without the feeling of an academic learning facility. Julianna is a child rather used to home comforts, so even at the beginning on the long road to get to where she is today, there are struggles and many points in at which she feels lost. However, despite all the minor stumbles on the bottom rung of this ladder, this is the start of an adventure, a journey to test everything Julianna is made of. Her story starts now...

Into the Velvet by help-me-think-of-one

*EDITORS' CHOICE 2021*After falling for her senior year teacher, Louise learns a harsh lesson on what adulthood isn't. Louise has some trauma to unpack. Heartbreak's a bitch, and her first relationship had been anything but normal. Thinking herself mature for her age, her affair with Mr. Cain started swooningly well. Except things ended quite abruptly. It's a lot for a seventeen year old to handle. But who's really at fault for what happened? Who even is Mr. Cain, and what is he hiding? From the wreckage of her naivety and self-esteem, can Louise save her friendships and rebuild herself? Our love songs aren't telling the whole truth. How can this be? In this tale of vulnerability, adolescence and painful reckoning, the arrogance of youth demands a price. * "'You're what, Louise?' he asked. 'You're sorry? What am I supposed to do here? How can I turn this around? How can I tell you that everything you want and feel is reciprocated, when I have to go back to work and pretend none of it happened?' 'I don't know the answer!' I cried. 'Neither of us do.' I threw my hands up in defeat. He caught them before they could fall. 'But how do I go back to living without your words?' His voice became a whisper. He squeezed my fingers tightly, closing his eyes and bringing them to his chest. 'I need how you make me feel, Luiza. I need it to feel alive. I won't stay away. No one's made me feel this good before. And I can't stand myself for wanting what I want. What do I do?' I was a violin bow on the verge of splintering. Every inch of me pulsed with an ache that began from the marrow of my bones. Fate had brought us here. At this crossroads of ours, there were a hundred different choices to make. A thousand different lifetimes to choose from, stemming from and decided entirely by my next choice. And in the end, I chose incorrectly. I held his face between my hands, feeling the echoing pulse of his skin. I brought his face to mine. I kissed him."

Melody's Crush by AloraDillon

Aren't one sided crushes fun? NOT! 18 year old Melody Jenkins has spent the last 3 years of high school crushing on one guy, Jake Kensington, who sees her as no more than a sister from another mister and best friend. Not wanting to risk their friendship, Melody has kept her crush a secret and her emotions in check whenever she's around him... which is daily since they live on the same property. It's her senior year and she has made it through the past three years of high school with little social psychological trauma. That's excellent considering she goes to a school in Los Angeles where the majority of the bored students graduating will have executive paying jobs the moment they walk across stage. If all goes well, she will graduate as the valedictorian with multiple offers from colleges on the East Coast, far away from California. But when the health teacher announces a "special" project that requires students to be paired and live under the same roof for one week, Melody's world gets completely turned upside down. She is forced to spend time with someone totally opposite of her and frankly, she can't stand... or so she thought. One night of catching a glimpse of the softer side of Kyle Warner, the school's most popular and arrogant quarterback, has her heart pounding and her stomach doing flip-flops. But when Melody shows an ounce of affection toward Kyle, Jake discovers feelings of his own as he tries to protect his best friend from the guy he knows Kyle can be. As the project comes to an end, Melody goes to homecoming... will it be a night to remember, forget or both? Be advised, this contemporary Teen / Young Adult Romance story has some strong language and strong sexual connotation.
