Is it normal for your parents to find you passed out in your bathroom from cuts on your wrist? Is it normal to spend a month in "remission"?

Then she meets Mason.
And he sets her life on fire.
But it feels so good to be alive again.

"She's right! She's right! I don't cut in the right spot." My hold tightens on my wrist. The red blood oozes out of my wrist. I slide up and grab my bag and run out of the bathroom. I don't care if people can see the blood I just want to get out. I race for the doors and shove through people. I earn a lot of glares and glances that read "weirdo." I ignore and push. I run to my house and lock myself in my bathroom. I don't bother closing the front door cause I don't care if people come in to kill me. I grab my razor and cut deep cuts into my arm and wrists falling into a pool of my own blood. • • • Evangeline has a great life. Friends? Check! Good grades? Check! Loving family? Check!

Don't say I didn't warn you. Okay, I wrote this at the start of this year (may 2016) and I had very poor writing skills.

That you did not attend a great university or whatever. It wasn't crucial to me. But now I recognize you for who you truly are." He comes to a halt and looks at me with contempt. "White trash. Aren't you one? Isn't that how they refer to folks like you?"Jonathan....! Jonathan?! I shake my head at him, completely stunned and shocked by his statements. What? Do you think this...?

" You only truly miss someone when they are gone. And sometimes, it's hard to let go. But you have to let him go..." It is hard when your loved one is gone. But for Riley, it was something different. In a sick sort of way, she loved it-reminiscing about Leo, literally drowning in the memories of him. And it isn't long till Riley does drown herself among those gray memories, shutting and shunning the world forever, in a place too far to reach. She is already so gone, that every one of her friends and family are very close to giving up, and on each tick of the clock Riley is close to letting go. Will a curious stranger's words save her, or will Riley try to save herself? *If you read the summary, and decided that it is some sort of typical clichè , I'd like to tell you that this is NOT a cliche 'damsel-in-distress-saved-by-a-knight-in-shining-armour' story at all. You won't find anything such as that, as the tags suggests too. But yes, there will be few moments of cliche.* •Warning• : Things about suicide, self-harm, depression; contains kissing and cuss words-so read at your own risk And also, even though it's edited, it still can have few mistakes. So sorry for those errors! Cover by me! Trailer by carpe-di3mComplete
My Masks
I am Masuku Padly, I smile and laugh easily, I get amazing grades with barely any effort. I have tons of friends, I'm beautiful and witty. I'm what every girl craves to be, and every guy's fantasy. I am Masuku Padly, I laugh just a bit too loud and drink just a bit too much. I dance with Seniors without a care in the world. I party with my friends all night, and I'm the life of every party I go to. I am Masuku Padly, I come from a well-respected family, and I'm always polite and proper. My parents adore me, and I never slip up. I work part-time in the company my family owns, and I always am professional. I am Masuku Padly, I write and sing and dance. Everything I try I do well and any slip-ups are covered by my own teasing of my myself. I am Masuku Padly, and I am perfect. I am Masuku Padly, and I am an orphan. I am Masuku Padly, and I am an heiress. I am Masuku Padly, and I am running away. I am Masuku Padly, and I've run. - Author note: I'm going to be changing some of the abilities vampires have, as well as other mythical creatures (e.i. witches, mediums, etc.). The love aspect of this story will be pretty minimal. There will also be small scenes of love/desire, again, minimal focus on love! (oh who am I kidding?! Love will be an aspect of the story, and it will guide some parts, but it is NOT the overall theme. The overall theme is more about finding out who you are and facing that through very difficult circumstances. There will be love interests and some parts of the story will be oriented toward love. I actually believe it makes it better, it means that the plot moves a touch faster, and that Masuku has a bit more to deal with. I like stories with some aspects of love in them, and if you really hate it, you don't have to read my book.)Complete

I'm new to this writing stuff for me have typed a little bit fast and either misspelled something or it did not come out the way it was supposed to be typed. I apologize for that....Just comment the mistake and I will try to fix it. Please note I was going through a weird like phase or something.

He never experienced a first kiss or first date, so it's only natural he's become obsessed with his first crush. That just so happens to be you! What should've been a normal encounter turned into a reoccurring nightmare that you wish you could escape, but once he's locked onto you, there's no getting away that easily. > Under some serious editing because for some reason people still read this and I'm so embarrassed. -ᝰ.ᐟComplete

Maya is brave, yet also afraid that her choices could lead her spiralling back into a bad place again. Will Noah be able to save her from herself? Or will he be the cause of her destruction? ---------------------------- ~Noah's pov~ 'These,' I slowly run my finger across one of her scars, 'are fucking beautiful.' Before she can object, I carry on. 'Maya you are beautiful beyond perfection. You are strong. You are brave. You are funny. You are sweet. You are incredible. Look at yourself,' I nod down towards the scars on her arm and she slowly glances down at them before meeting my gaze again, 'those scars are beautiful. Do you know why?' I ask her. She wipes a tear from her already tear-stricken face before she shakes her head. 'Because every time you decided to do that to yourself, you didn't go further, you didn't end your life. You decided to carry on living even when you thought you couldn't manage it. Those scars right there,' I gesture to them again, 'show the battles you won against yourself. They are your battle-scars and you shouldn't be ashamed of them. And you know what? I am so proud of you for making it to where you are today because you are a fighter and If I can see that, anyone can.'Complete
