Alis Volat Propiis 

All around me my friends knew who they wanted to be and who they were now. They knew what they wanted to go to college for and where. I, however, was stuck wondering what I wanted to be. The summer of my sophomore year and I was stuck in more ways than one. So lost in this life when it dawned on me how truly small I was in this giant world. 
All I knew was that wherever I went, I wanted to be remembered. I wanted to leave a smile on people's faces in 10, 20, however many years that went by. I wanted them to laugh when they told stories of me to their children. Isn't that what everyone truly wants though? Even though they may not say it?
I wanted to fall deeply in love and have one of those cheesy high school romances that are rare in true life, but seen all the time in movies. A prince to carry me across mud puddles, to kiss me even when I don't expect it, someone who loves me for who I am inside and out; not just the outside.

46 parts Complete Mature
*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."
