*****i began this story a while back. I don't know if I'll ever get back to it, but I don't have the heart to make it private just yet****
Life is a lot like mixology. The bartender, in this case God (or any other magical beings you believe in) creates a concoction, which then represents a moment in time. The combination could result in a scrumptious frappe or a treacherous glass of soapy milk.
Gin and Malcolm are two crazy teens--literally the pair of them are insane...okay not really. But the things that they do to and for each other are quite questionable. Continue to read a tragic yet not tragic tale about a naive girl, an ignorant boy and a boat. The S.S. Teenage Romance, which is going down.

Please do not read if physical violence, swearing, drug ussage and the way I mention religious terms offends you. Those are not my intentions. This story is not meant to target anyone. Also none of the pictures used are mine, I usually use pictures that I find on Pinterest and edit them.
Aside from that I hope you enjoy!

The Girls with the Flame Tattoos
In this society, everyone has a soulmate. And the way to find yours is just look. Along with a soulmate, everyone has a small tattoo on their cheek with a symbol. Some could be a star, a flower, a yinyang, a fish, or even waves. There are so many people that the symbols are almost limitless. The tattoos don't care about gender or number. There could be gay matches, and there could even be polyamorous matches. The tattoos will tingle when you are near to your sm. And they will glow if you have found only one of your sm's if your match was poly. The trick is, you don't get the tattoo until you are 16. And even if you are near your match, as long as one of you are not of age, your tattoo will not tingle. Also, they are normal tattoos (except you don't get it or choose it, it just appears) so you can get rid of it. But if you do, your sm won't die but they will get very sick. The main characters of this story, Violet West (18) and Harper Black (20), both have a flame tattoo on their cheek. They live in the same state but for 4 years Harper paniced because she couldn't find her match. She wasn't sure if it was because her sm wasn't of age yet or if her sm lived far away. For 2 years Violet also paniced but she knew that some people don't find their sm for 5-10 years after they come of age, so she wasn't as scared as Harper. One day though, they feel their tattoos start to tingle. ____________________________________ *Will they be happy with who their soulmate turns out to be? *Will they recognize each other? *Will they be happy? *Will they break apart? -Read to find out. :) ____________________________________ This book is rated mature because there is a lot of talk of depression and self harm.
