The Wild Escape by Lindzaya

Katrina Mars has always had a special connection with her older sister, Keeley, who graduated the year Katrina was in eighth grade. That connection was the same kind of love for pop punk/alternative rock music and their desire to be happy helping one another and others. The two had always been best friends as sisters, and they had always been there for each other. Keeley was even the only friend Katrina ever had, even after she went off to college. Ever since Keeley left for college (which is eight hours away from Katrina's home), Katrina has felt lost, confused, lonely, and sad, not knowing what to do at all with no one to turn to. About five months after Keeley left, at a doctor's visit, Katrina discovers that she has been diagnosed with depression. Although this disappoints her, it is not surprising... For the next couple of years, her parents have become worse and worse towards her, mentally abusing her because of the music she likes, the way she dresses, and her normal personality. This worsens her depression, and being ignored and lonely doesn't help. This is all until she meets Sam Browman, a kid in school who is a lot like her: dresses "emo," listens to "emo" bands, sings and plays a lot of instruments, and goes through troubles at home. Who knows what may happen to these kids who connect through both having troubles at home? This story is set in the year 2011, when My Chemical Romance was together (before the breakup and reunion). WARNING: This story contains mentions and depictions of self-harm, abuse, violence, and bullying. If you are sensitive to these topics, I would not recommend this story to you.

Friends Forever, huh? by findingjuls

A love letter to the populars, the awkwards, the depressed, the third wheels. Anyone reading this--this is for you. To everyone that feels unimportant, left out, or never chosen...Ashley knows exactly what that's like. Every single best friend she's had has left for one reason or another. The most notable of these is Cole--the boy she knew practically her whole life until he moved away and was seemingly disinterested in continuing a friendship. When he reappears, will they get a second chance at friendship? Or perhaps something more? [potential trigger warning: themes of bullying, depression, and self harm] [ranked #230 in Teen Fiction]

Unhealthy Obsession |18+| by CodiBlue

-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.

Eros ✔ by faeriez

Autumn Lake thought she could have anything she wanted. Despite her father's wealth, there were three things she could never get with money; love, freedom, and friendship. She had never experienced such things. She had always wondered how they felt, for she never felt loved by anyone; not even her own father. She had no one to socialize with other than her maids and her father's coworkers and prestigious clients, because of her father's imprisonment. The only things that she usually did in her spare time were reading novels and countless encyclopedias, which left her to wonder how good and generous the world was. That was until she went to college. Everything she imagined how the world outside would be went topsy-turvy. CREDITS: Cover by: Andini Oktarani

You Are The Reason by Kalicy101

*"Move, weirdo." She glanced at him and sighed. "Feel free to move if you want to, there's so much room." He raised his eyebrows in surprise. Firstly because she dared stand up to him, nobody did that. Everyone, except his friends and family, feared and respected him. Secondly because this was the school weirdo, who rarely interacted or talked to anyone. "You sure I'm the person you wanna mess with?" She shocked him again by responding. "I got bigger problems that pissing off the school's biggest bully." She spoke calmly. Like, it showed that she was not scared of him. She actually looked... bored. "Yeah, like what?" he asked, willing to know what could possibly be worse than pissing him off, and insulting him on top of that. She looked at him, like really looked into his eyes, and he was taken aback by the pain reflected in her eyes. "Piss off." she said and walked away. He was internally grateful that there was no one else in the hallway, because he had no intentions of following that girl.* Callie Wild was the school weirdo. The girl who kept to herself, had no friends, spoke to no one and stayed out of trouble. People knew she liked to wear bottlenecks and long sleeves,nobody ever wondered why. Nobody ever thought she could be hiding something. But she was carrying so many secrets, hiding them from even her own family. Jace Sherman was the typical high school badboy; handsome, rude, player, well built. All that. He's always looking for trouble with his friends, and they always find it. This time, he isn't looking for trouble, he's looking for answers. Answers to things that didn't concern him. Like why that weird shy girl was the way she was. And what was she hiding???

An Unexpected Moment by caromerri

... that changes everything Sarah was starting her junior year of high school. Looking at herself in the mirror, she saw a pretty average blonde haired, blue eyed, teenager. She was neither in the popular group, nor one of the many cliched outsiders. Sarah was a nobody. She liked to blend in and lay low. It was her way out of not only this town, but her house. No one knew it, but her father was a high functioning alcoholic that often took his anger out on his family. With her older sister now in college, it had turned to her more often. Laying low in general was a good strategy. Across town, Ryan was prepping for his final year in high school. While he wasn't the stereotypical quarterback of the football team, he did fit into the popular crowd. His sports of choice included basketball and soccer, either of which might line him up for a scholarship next year. Ryan had a group of close friends and a lot of adoring acquaintances. It wasn't easy juggling his athletics and keeping the grades up, but he was just that good. The supporting parents didn't hurt either. It might be a cliché romance, but it will be fun to see what the year and beyond holds. ------------------------------------------ This is a story I wrote years ago, or at least partially wrote. As I transcribe it here, I have tried to update it a bit and give the characters/story more depth than what I had when I was younger. Hopefully it all gets pulled together!
