Guns everywhere, death knocking at the door. One young Israeli boy and one young Palestinian boy, shutting out the world around them. Their unlikely friendship forming on a basis of distrust and discomfort. Both of them walking in already filled with judgement forced on them by everyone and everything around them. Meeting once by coincidence in their connecting backyards, being forced to confront the war that was always eating at them. Seeing the world through another's eyes is hard, but understanding the world if harder.

One of a Kind
*~*Completed*~* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Each one of us has a role,"Asher says, "Beau is the leader, the smooth talker that gets us the deals. Alec is the brawns, he's scary and can knock someone out with a flick of his finger. Nolan is the brains, he does surveillance, recording, calculating, the good stuff that we need. As for me, I'm the bank. I provide the money to pay for everything, not to mention the drugs. You can't be as rich and powerful as me without knowing some people." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Evie Scott wasn't the type of girl you'd notice in the hallway. She was quiet, sarcastic at times, but tended to keep her nose stuck inside a good book. She had one best friend, Sophie, and the two of them took on the world together. One fateful night, Evie and Sophie cross paths with the four bad boys of their school, Beau, Nolan, Alec and Asher, who are in the middle of conducting illegal activities. What should send them running for the hills, actually brings them closer to them. With the movement of a new gang in their territory, they must work together to find out who it is, otherwise Evie's life will be in danger. As they work together, feelings blossom and past experience come up. But what's more scarier? Dealing with an unknown gang who has a hit out for you...or falling for the bad boys?Complete

New Memories (A Blazin Fanfic)
Ein is a freshman at a new college. A state or two away from where PDH was. He applied there hoping that he'd finally have the chance for a fresh start. He hoped that no one knew him there so that he'd be free from people hating him for what he did in highschool. He's changed alot since then. He's become friendlier, more trustworthy, and quiet. Compared to the power-hungry jerk he was back in highschool. Blaze had to apply to a different college since he didnt get accepted into the last one he applied for. He has and will always be a fun, loyal, athletic, and protective friend to whoever he meets. They both wanted new memories to be made at this college.

SECOND DRAFT: Hard Bank Left
I am republishing this for a friend who wanted to read a sample of my work. The plot is all over the place, but I know I'll revisit it in future. I initially wrote this in 2017 before I knew a lot of things I know now. There's a lot in here that is culturally insensitive. I have done my best to edit out what I could find at first glance, but if you see something glaringly offensive please make a comment about it so that I can correct my errors. The most egregious example that comes to mind is using the G-word for the Romani and relying on unflattering stereotypes. I plan to correct a lot of this in proceeding drafts. Other than that, enjoy my emotional, nonsensical ride! Trigger warnings for: body dysmorphia, body horror, medical trauma, sexual assaultComplete
Jesse's Girl (COMPLETE)
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 *Complete
Pretty Lost (Completed)
I'm doing a story based on these three words. Perfect. Stuck. Lost. My friend is also doing this challenge so i hope you enjoy this story! And don't worry i'll still work on my other story!! This story is about a boy who wants to do things the way his home used to live like. . . will he see the flaws in others and judge them or learn to be understanding of others? Read to find out. It is my first few books so this may suck but I'll get better. Super cringe so just switch to one of my other books. Probs won't finish book two of this, if I'm being honest, this wasn't the best. Might rewrite it one day. (Looking back, I was on some sort of drugs cause what was I thinking? I'm surprised people can even find this garbage fire.)Complete

Kill Me Gangleader
Someone walks into the room but I cannot see its face. It looks like a man and by the look of his posture, he seems very important. "Why were you in my territory?" His voice is strangely calm however I think its the calm before the storm. "I didn't know it was your territory! For gods sake how many times do I have to tell you people? Just let me go and I promise I won't say anything to anyone. Not like I have anyone to tell." The last part I said in a whisper. He didn't need to know the situation I was in. I hear the cock of a gun making me raise my head. The all too familiar sound ringing in my ears. "I don't believe you bitch, so you better tell me the truth or your brains are gonna end up on the wall." Ah there's the storm. "A gun doesn't scare me arsehole, I've had way worse things than that!" He steps forward into the light so I can see his features. He is extremely good looking but right now is not the right time to admire his beauty. I stare straight into his pitch black eyes, daring him to try harder than this. He smirks and leans forward searching my eyes. Before I can even register what's happening, he punches me in the face. *** Mature ContentComplete
