Whispers in the Walls by ShingCedj

They told me the house was empty. That the boy I was supposed to care for wasn't real. Just a doll. Just a job. But then I heard things. Felt things. The whispers in the walls, the way the air shifted like someone was always watching me. I should be scared. I should leave. But there's something about him-something that keeps pulling me back. Maybe it's the loneliness in his voice. Or the way he lingers in the shadows, waiting for me to see him. All I know is... I don't think I want to run anymore.

Grave Rock: Cemetery Stones by DavyRuiz

A group of friends slowly drift apart and leave their small town behind. Years go by and memories fade, leading to a random reunion that will make one of them question why they stopped being friends. Was it because people change and grow-up? Or did a silly dare mean so much more than they thought? Something is lurking in the woods. Memories, graveyards, ghosts, and the truth of what happened so many years before. *This is part of the anthology series, 'Grave Rock', a multiverse story collection.

Saying Goodbye by LowlyLunaa

Seventeen-year-old Elena knows she's running out of time. With a brain tumor stealing her strength and her future, her parents move her to a quiet farmhouse in the woods, hoping for peace in her final months. But Elena doesn't expect the house to hold a secret-one that will change everything. In the attic, among boxes of forgotten records and dust, Elena discovers Ethan: a boy her age, with messy blonde hair, a crooked smile, and eyes that see right through her. Ethan is a ghost, bound to the house where his own life ended years ago. At first, Elena wonders if he's only a hallucination-a cruel trick of her dying brain. But Ethan is real, as real as the warmth of his hand on hers, the sound of his laughter, and the way her heart stirs when he looks at her. As her body weakens, Elena finds herself spending her days with Ethan, hiding from her grieving parents to linger in the attic with the boy who makes her feel alive again. Together, they share music, laughter, secrets, and the fragile beauty of a love that shouldn't exist. But time is different now. Elena's life as she knew it is gone, and what waits ahead is uncertain. As she slips further from the world she once belonged to, she begins to accept that her journey isn't ending-it's changing. And maybe, just maybe, she and Ethan aren't as lost as they thought.

Rascals by Stvp1d_Em0K1d

A story of a runaway heartbeat and the found family it dragged along. They move from place to place-half-lost, half-chosen-chasing quiet, hiding from the noise. It started with one girl trying to outrun the truth her family fed her, and grew into a mismatched group of escapees: her best friend, a boyfriend, two internet ghosts, and later, the ones who took the place of those who left. But people don't always stay. Sometimes they leave with a note. Sometimes they don't say anything at all. And sometimes... they come back. What happens when someone you loved left you for what they thought was your good-only to return when the damage's been done? What happens when grief makes room for someone new? And how do you know when the road you're running is finally home? --- Content Warning: •Themes of death, grief, abandonment •Found family & trauma bonding •Emotional and psychological triggers •Intimate/suggestive scenes (light smut)

ᴛɪᴍᴇ ᴀғᴛᴇʀ ᴅᴇᴀᴛʜ x ᴡᴀʟʟʏ ᴄʟᴀʀᴋ (sᴄʜᴏᴏʟ sᴘɪʀɪᴛs) ғᴀɴғɪᴄ by mailroomghost

Margaret "Mack" Mora has always been good at keeping her distance. Quiet, sharp, and invisible by choice, she doesn't do school spirit, football games, or golden boys with easy smiles. But when she's assigned to tutor Wally Clark-the injured quarterback trying to catch up in class-her carefully built walls start to crack. Wally is nothing like she expected: thoughtful, funny, frustratingly sincere. Against all odds, they click. And just when Mack begins to let herself feel something real, everything falls apart. On the night of the homecoming game, Wally dies. Then Mack wakes up-and it's homecoming day all over again. No matter what she tries-keeping Wally home, warning him, running away-the day resets every time she falls asleep. And Wally always dies. Trapped in a time loop no one else seems to notice, Mack is forced to relive the day she loses him, again and again. But as she searches for a way to break the loop, Mack starts to realize the day isn't just about Wally's death-it's about their connection, the pieces of him she's only beginning to understand, and the parts of herself she's never dared to show. Because if love can't stop the clock... maybe it can teach her how to truly live.

The Center of Gravity by ByFaithForFaith

» Being home alone in an empty house can be fun-- for a few hours. But how about weeks? « Rowin Lifile has tried everything. The police, FBI, school, hospital, friends, family-- everyone she can think of. No one can explain the four mysterious disappearances of her mother, father, brother, and sister. Basically because there isn't anyone to tell her. It's like the world decided to disappear and she was the only one left. For weeks, she's been living alone. Rationing her food and swimming in past memories. That is, until a boy shows up. Neither of them know the other with one exception; he's lost his memory. He can hardly remember his own name, much less how he found Rowin in the first place. Soon, their friendship turns into something that helps them survive. Then Rowin makes a discovery that changes everything, taking her mind to places she couldn't imagine. Before either herself or the boy can interpret what happen, they realize something-- Someone's been watching. » "If We're Real Series" - Book 1 « {Started: April 15, 2016 Completed: May 25, 2016 } (PC: tumblr)
