Me? I guess you could say I was a typical teenage girl. I had my best friend by my side daily, my top-secret crush, and undoubtedly, my fair share of family issues.
Him? He was happy, carefree, and saw the world as his oyster. He wanted nothing more to conquer it one day, with no one other but his best friend by his side.
We both had our dreams, but in three years, a lot can happen.
He had hope, and I guess I didn't.
But that was just who we were.
-
Vienna Johnson was a fifteen year old girl with more issues than vogue. A late night trip across the world guaranteed that her life would be changed forever, regardless of what she wants. Because regardless of the pronoun, it wasn't 'her' life anymore. In fact, it was no longer about her at all, but about helping her mother.
Alec Ryder was a sixteen year old boy with one intention - to conquer the world with his undoubted talent. A close friend exiting his life sooner than he could ever have wished changed him, not so much for the better.
But two worlds that once separated, may again collide, and unfinished business may open itself back up. You never know... a lot can happen in three years.

The Other Guy (BoyxBoy) ✔️
"I walked over to where Aaron was sitting on the ground, kneeling so that I was face-to-face with him. He was wearing a blank expression on his face so I guess he didn't really care if I kissed him or not. I took in a deep breath before taking his face in both of my hands and swooping down to kiss him. At first, I was so nervous I didn't realize that we were already kissing but after a few moments, I realized how soft his lips felt on my own. Before I can register it I felt him moving against me. I would have gotten off of him but I realize that he wasn't moving to get away from me. No, He was moving his lips against mine." °°°°° Aiden Moore isn't extraordinary. He has average looks, he is OK with sports, and his only strong point is that he is smart (although that doesn't mean much to his fellow classmates). And, of course, his virgin ass has never had a girlfriend, let alone a crush. It seemed as if he would never find someone. That was until he met her, Scarlett Hale. She was the most beautiful girl you will ever meet. Kind, sweet, and one of the few people with a higher GPA then him, she was amazing and Aiden imagined that she would be all his. Once Aiden gets rid of her boyfriend, Aaron Tyler. The most annoying guy you will ever meet, Aiden gags just thinking about him. The man is smoking hot and makes Aiden's dreams of getting the girl to seem very impossible. So what would happen if Aiden gets involved with the wrong person? Will Aiden get the girl? Will he fall short? Or will he fall into the arms of a guy who is in love with the girl he loves? _______________________________________ WARNING: First book EVER!

Unhealthy Obsession |18+|
-Let's get this straight. From a dead end job to a useless crazy ex boyfriend- my happiness is with my best friend yet the fear of our relationship ending completely scares me and id rather fake it and be in fear than find out and never be happy. It sucks, seeing him everyday and knowing what i feel for him and how deep those feelings go is painful...- But when he comes around everything changes for the best and for the worst. As a whole they are deeply loved and equally as hated by others but the love from one another is undeniable, if only she wasnt so selfish with her choices and words- -Lying, cheating, sneaking, crying- many acts and emotions come from within when there's someone you love unaware of that love.. Possibly growing to love someone else right before your eyes..Its gut wrenching, i know because ive fucked up. Its worse when you're aware of the harm you cause yourself and others but dont care how the outcome turns out to be. Why would it matter how it effects you if youre used to pain and people leaving? it wouldnt. All because you take comfort in your own mind and mental illness, once you realize you have freewill it may become a bad thing if youre careless.- - Gabriella White.Complete

Amelia Heart, with her large smile and her infectious laugh, is what most people would think has the perfect life. They would watch as she went back to her beach house, as she went out of her way to stop and chat to her neighbours, as she would get the perfect grades.

Those Perfect Flaws || ✓ || PUBLISHED
#1 in Teen Fiction Blaze Ryder is everything Alaska feared. He is eyes and embraces and fallings stars, chocolate and marshmallows, the fizz on soda on the tongue. He is wind and hands and lips on your hair; he is a hundred kisses to hide the bruises, the flowers of summer blooming together. Ink and paper, the smell of old books and cornered nooks. The teens standing together, so close that their shadows merge into one, and the blood dripping from her hands to the concrete floor. It's a chaotic love story, really. * * * "And you know, some people are good at love, and some of them are good at being in love. They are two different things. Being in love is the romantic part, sex all the time, midday naps in the sheets, the jokes, the laughs, the long conversations with no pauses, overwhelming thoughts, separation, and anxiety - just the best sides of two people. But love? Love begins when the excitement starts to fade away; the stress in life sets in, the sex becomes a chore; the tears, the sadness, the arguments come into the picture. The worst sides of these two people are shown. But you know, after all that, I would still want you in my life, and I know you would want me too. So I love you, and I'm not afraid of loving you," Alaska says into the phone, pouring her heart out.Complete
