If You Love Me by slybatspidow

"If you love me, you won't leave me." Jessie has believed those words from her boyfriend, Josh, since senior year of high school. She loves him and doesn't want to leave him. Not even when he shouts at her and hits her. Jessie's best friend, Kolleen, can't stand seeing her in that situation. With a bit of convincing - and the worst beating she'd ever received - Jessie agrees to move into an apartment with Kolleen. But not long after, Jessie is scared the worst of her nightmares will soon become a reality. Josh goes missing, and suddenly Jessie would swear she's being followed. One night changes everything, and one person soon changes Jessie's outlook. A responding officer from that fateful night begins to seek her out, at first claiming it's part of his job. As she spends time with her new friend outside of his job, she starts realizing that her feelings are evolving. After being abused for over a year, Jessie is terrified she's falling in love. What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet. She makes up her mind that if he is falling, and if he does love her, he'll wait for her to be ready, and if she loves him, she won't let herself hurt him.

For Just a Moment by Cecimack0365

What do you do when your smart, handsome, well-liked step brother and two of his friends force you to have sex with them in your own bedroom? Do you tell? And what if no one believes you? Or worse yet, what if the adults and even the friends that you count on think that it's somehow your fault? Sixteen-year-old Molly Kerrigan has a horrible secret, one so painful that she tries her hardest to forget it. Starting over at a new school, she does all she can to remain anonymous. But a well-meaning social worker hoping to help Molly come to terms with her troubled past, forces her to participate in an every-other-day lunch group. It is here that she meets Ali, who is figuring out her own sexuality, Trinity, so neglected at home that she seeks solace in the arms of older men, Rubi, a Mexican immigrant with her hands full, between her dying mama and younger, special needs sister, and Layla, the richest, most beautiful, and most manipulative girl in the school. Molly also draws the attention of charming soccer player, Noah Nazarian, after he sees her accidentally defending his freshman brother from bullies on the first day of school. Desperate to be left alone, Molly invents a pretend boyfriend. The only problem is that he ends up being not so pretend, and now Molly finds herself as one half of a fake relationship that is the obsession of the most popular clique at school.
