Fading Away - Dissolved Pt 1 (Ylvis) by pixeloris

“I talk a little to the girl at the register. Turns out she went to the same school as Vegard. She had a major crush on him but he never knew she existed. So sad really. Well, that's life I guess. I wonder if she worked yesterday when we were there buying breakfast? I'm not gonna ask, she talks about him like she´s still into him. Apparently she runs into him now and then. I tell her I think she should talk to him. I mean, why not, she seems like a nice girl.” That's how it all starts, a few friendly words. Nothing you think twice about, something you just say. Maja could never imagine what would come out of it. Hurtful words, broken hearts, destroyed friendships. Vegard says yes to one date with the girl when she convinces him that Maja told her to ask him out. Instead of asking Maja if it is so, he just acts hurt and childish, thinking that Maja doesn't care about him, and gets caught up in an abusive relationship with a fatal outcome. Can Maja help an 11 year old boy save his big brother?

Everything Hurts by analiciapaloma

I knew what was coming later tonight, not only at home, but on the way there. I knew that reacting right now would just make it worse though. So I kept quiet and pretended that I was not dreading when I would be alone with the man that stood beside me, wondering when it became so normal to do so. Jason and Alicia have the perfect relationship from the outside looking in, but Alicia has kept her wounded spirit and body hidden well. After another one of Jason's violent rages that is impossible to hide, Alicia is finally able to get away from the abuse though. In the process of healing, she begins to relearn what trust, compassion, and safety are once again - that is, until Jason discovers her whereabouts.

Whispers of us by Grace63662

When tragedy strikes her family, Jasmine and her mother struggle to move forward. As a last resort, the family decides to move out of town, searching for peace away from the city that holds their worst nightmares. Making up for the year she lost, Jasmine enrolls in a dual program for her first and second years of med school. She however, didn't anticipate learning more than just medicine, and finding much more than what she came looking for. Liam Damien Myers has decided to never rely on anyone since he lost his mother to the big C. Navigating life alone, steering away from other people's business, the last thing he expected was to get caught in the new girl's world. A journey of healing, friendship, and a chance at love. ----------- P.s. since I'm a new writer the first couple chapters might sound a little cringe, but I swear it gets better so soon. It'd be nice if you keep reading till the end and I'd appreciate your support for this new hobby of mine. You're free to call me out on any errors or scenes that you don't like in the comments, be nice though. I really would love to read your comments on the book, so keep commenting, I'll try to always reply. Luv u. Enjoy.

Altered by LuellaOpal

Have you ever met someone who alters the course of your life? For good or for bad, they've come in, given and taken, and then- BOOM! Your life was never the same. There's always a change, an altering of reality. When you meet those people, the reality that you've known your whole life is suddenly gone and a new one has taken its place. When those moments happen, there's no going back. You can try to return to the way things were but nothing, and I mean nothing, can take you back to exactly how it was. That's what happened to us. I think that's why we're still trying so desperately to get back to some sort of normalcy. Four years later and we're still on the ground, crawling, in search of the happiness that was lost that June. Summers will never be the same. Midnight walks through my neighborhood will never be the same. Field parties with bonfires and loud music will never be the same. I still don't know why you left and what lead you to the decision you made. What I do know is that we're here. We're alive and we're pushing forward to the future. A future that you're not a part of. But in some ways, I'm glad you're not a part of it. I just wish it wasn't like this. *** TRIGGER WARNING*** SA, abuse, suicide, substance abuse, and mental illness. This is a complete story that is much like life; fast, full of surprises, and not always how we want it to be. This has been a project of mine for over three years. It was self-published on Amazon, but after some issues in publication, I decided to just upload it on here. I hope you fall in love with these characters like I have. The friends in this story are trying to make names for themselves, figure out who they are, who they can trust, how to love, and how to separate themselves from a restrictive community. As in any coming of age story, they will experience growing pains... but will they survive them before its too late? PLEASE READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS.

Our Destiny Was An Accident by fatimaansari10

Growing up we tend to become mature with scars on our heart that changes an innocent loving child into an arrogant, suspicious and emotionless character. In order not to get hurt we tend to conceal our heart with an ironclad barrier. But what if we have to learn everything again. A girl with painful past, that turned her antisocial, suffers brain damage in an accident and loses all her memories. She is able to form new memories, so she starts learning again in order to become normal. Thankful to her amnesia she is now more cheerful, more open to people and more lively than she had ever been. She is clueless about what mental trauma she had been through all her life prior to the accident, but in her sleep subconsciously she always had nightmares of her past. In this new journey, she has support of a doctor who actually hit her with his car and made her suffer with amnesia, PTSD, anger issues, nightmares, and many more... With time they come close and as if destined they fall in love with each other. This story tells about the journey of a girl who starts learning from zero and rises to become a star loved by everyone because she applies what she had been taught throughout her learning process. She is pure, straightforward, nature lover, independent, hates discrimination of any kind and brave to show the world that truth always wins.

For My Soul by Blair-Jade

Everyone says that healing is a personal journey- that you must be self-sufficient and independent... but well- historically that just does not happen. Healing has always been done by or with a community. So, when River and Amelia are constantly pushed together by their friends- as they clash and then work to form a friendship that turns into so much more- what happens when maybe the path to healing is not so simple as ticking off Amelia's self-care checklist, what happens when both Amelia and River find themselves needing each other in more ways than one? Relationships sustain us, but they also destroy us. Can both find the trust that they need to love each other healthily?

I Fell in Love with a Bad Boy by Beautiful_Tragedy8

CRINGE WARNING! First book I ever wrote on here!! -- "Sometimes the person who you are willing to take a bullet for is the person behind the gun." I stood peering over the cold lifeless body that lay before my eyes. I had always thought of death the enemy, but right now, I blessed it upon the person who is now at peace. Sometimes you don't need to be the smartest, or the fastest, but you do need to be wisest. They say the blood runs deeper than water, and I believe it, because even though the people that we love can turn on us and begin to hate us, they are only human, meaning that soon they will begin to see how short life really is and how it is not to be wasted. People who seem perfect and they look like they have no floors'; they are the people who are suffering, like I was. But I found my savior in the most uncommon place. He was able to look through my mask, he saw the cracks, and tried to fix the broken girl that hid away deep inside the girl who only wanted to be seen as 'fine'. I slowly began to find comfort and safety in him, and I did the same to him. We were two broken people becoming whole. Someone once said when you pass, if you can count your true friends on one hand you are beyond lucky, and I even though I did not like the person that lay before me, I know that he once had true friends, including me. I'm a 17 year old girl who has suffered more than any other, beginning to believe that 'Hope' was just another word the people throw around. Until I fell in love with a badboy.
