The Summer Before by LAArms21

Tessa's love life is full of clichés. She fell for the boy next door, her brother's best friend, and her childhood crush. They all just happen to be the same guy- Levi Daniels. Tessa and Levi seem to be stuck in an endless loop of right person, wrong time scenarios where one of them is single when the other isn't. One summer, that finally changes. Both Tessa and Levi are single, and the spark that's always been there seems to burn brighter than ever before as the two join their friends for another summer of fun at their coveted lake house. Things couldn't be better. Their star-crossed love seems to finally be morphing into a fairy tale, but is one night really all it takes for them to find their happily ever after? You know what they say... If it seems too good to be true, it probably is. ~ Levi did the one thing he wasn't supposed to do. He fell for his best friend's sister- someone he would never be free of if anything bad ever happened. There was something about Tessa Rhodes that kept him coming back. She was his kryptonite, and no matter how hard he tried, he could never quite bury his feelings for her. Then came the summer that changed everything. Levi finally decided to let his inhibitions go. Even if it didn't work out, he had to see what would happen. He told Tessa everything, baring his feelings, and leaving the ball in her court. One night would change their relationship forever, and an infuriating discovery the next morning would threaten to ruin them for good. ~ What happened in the course of those few hours that took these lovebirds from happily ever after to heartbreak hotel? Find out in The Summer Before.

The Boy She Saw in the Hospital by triciawritess

"Death isn't just one thing that happens and is over with. That description fits life more. Death is eternal. I mean that's how I view it. Death brings joy and pain. In my opinion life should be viewed as death is. The end. Death is the beginning. A new life, a fresh new start. Its beauty is unmatched. I imagine it feels like stars bursting, a million smiles and just pure happiness." Cancer. What a pain. Valerie's crippling illness leaves her hospitalised, bored out of her mind, dreaming of how she just wants to be a normal teenager. Although her thoughts are constantly intruded by someone. The boy. She was intrigued by him, he visited everyday at the same time, 2:47pm. She wanted to know his story, why was he here? Is he visiting someone? Her curiosity overflowed her. Anyways, it didn't matter, for her illness was getting better and she could finally get back to school. Sophomore year. Gosh. She could finally be a normal teenager. Then she saw "him" in the school hallways. The boy. Although he seemed different, less warm, more cold. It was like he put up a façade and barricaded his true self. His true self being... the boy she saw in the hospital. 🥇First place in The Star Awards 🥇First place in The Ember Awards #24 in sadromance #15 in cancerpatient finished- 22/09/22

All seems to be going smoothly until meeting Tessa. In Tessa's eyes, Nicole is stealing everything that Tessa believes belongs to her. And she is in no way trying to hide her hostility towards Nicole. William, a green-eyed boy who has his life planned out for him, grew up in this town. He knows everyone and is popular amongst his friends. He makes an effort to spend every bit of his free time hanging out with his friends at the lake. When Nicole and William's eyes connect for the first time, neither one can look away. Is there such a thing as love at first sight? I want to think so. *** First Love, Forever Love is the first story that I had the pleasure of writing for a contest. Little did I know that this story would be the catalyst of my passion for writing. I loosely based this story on my husband's and my love story. While much of it is fiction, there are snippets of truth throughout. I hope you enjoy reading my story as much as I enjoyed writing it and revising it for Wattpad.
