*WARNING: This book may seem cliche, but that's not my goal*
EXCERPT:
Walking into the restroom, I find Andy still hugging the toilet. Sighing, I sit next to him. I give him the water and Tylenol to take. After he's swallowed his medicine, I stand to go back to bed.
I suddenly feel a hand wrap around my wrist forcing me to a stop. "Baby, don't leave me again," turning to him I see Andy with tears in his drunken eyes. "I can't take seeing you walk away from me day after day."
A small sob escapes his throat and I feel myself start to cry. "I'm sorry, Andy. I just can't be hurt anymore."
"Please, just let me stay with you tonight," he whispers. He looks at me desperately, I can't bear to say no.
Nodding I say, "Okay. But brush your teeth you dip, your breath smells horrible." Smiling, he nods. "Oh, and Andy," I add, "wear pants." Once again he nods, this time laughing a little bit. "I'll be in my room."

His Bride
{BoyxBoy} "Well I need a wife, if you haven't noticed a wedding is supposed to take PLACE!!" Gustavo yelled making me shrink in fear. He's one scary dude. "Where are we going to get a bride?, It's late" his mother said trying to reason with him. His eyes roamed around the room before it landed on me. "What about him?" Gustavo suggested, his eyes boring into mine, making me shrink a little with fear and discomfort. I wasn't scared of him, it was just that I'm naturally a shy person, so obviously someone who was oozing with such aura would make me panic a bit. "He looks just like his sister, the same skin colour, his hair is shorter but we can work with it" he was talking to himself now, but his gaze was still fixed on me. His eyes then darted to his mother who looked the same as my mother, stressed. "Put him In her wedding clothes, mother go tell the priest not to add the kissing part, I want the wedding short and fast" he said before leaving the room. Slamming the door in anger, which made me flinch ----------- Blake has got to be one of the most unlucky people ever, having to be the first person to notice his sister's disappearance to being the only one who can save his parents face from being ridiculed. He has no other choice but to wed his sister's fiancé-who he has a crush on-, will Gustavo decide to take revenge for the embarrassment his sister almost cost him or will he learn to live and love his new husband. ...........

*This story contains two pov's, the leading pov is female* "Andy" she signed quietly. "Fuck Lola, don't do this to me" I gulped. "Do what?" She smiled innocently, moving her hand up and tangling her delicate fingers in my wet hair. Chills ran through me as I had given in to the games we were playing, dropping my head further into her intoxicating touch. She took that as an invitation. Little kisses were left on my neck, and my jaw, then back to my neck. She played this game of teasing until I decided I can't wait anymore. Our lips connected, our tongues danced together, intertwined. I'm hers. This woman had more power over me then I'd like to admit. I'm utterly and completely consumed by her, my heart is hers, my brain, hers. I am willing to do anything so that she will be happy forever. I'll protect her by any means necessary. I'm yours my Lolita, only yours..... * * * Our love story started out- badly. Eva and Andy didn't notice each other the first time they met, or the second time, nor the third. When they finally encountered, they couldn't stand being in the same room. I know what you must think, "if they hate each other so much, how can this be a love story?". What can I say? It was love at first sight, or more like hate at first sight, but you know what they say, the line between love and hate is as thin as a Victoria Secret supermodel. Trigger warnings: - SA - Violence - Alcohol use - AbuseComplete

Chaotic Brains
✨✨✨✨ I was looking at the guy and he was still asleep. I leaned towards and slowly pushed away a few strands of his hair from his forehead and gently tapped on his arm. After a few taps, his eyes fluttered and opened but squinted his eyes to adjust to the brightness of the room. ✨✨✨✨✨✨ This is a story that takes place in a college. It's about two strangers who met for the first time in a weird way but end up being friends. This is a journey of six young people getting ready to be released into the real world. They go through a lot of ups and downs. Deal with their own issues and help their friends deal with theirs. They realize that nobody is what they look on the outside and definitely not perfect. They are gonna be some cliches, some plot twists and humor. Some cute lovey-dovey stuff and occasional mature content.Also will have stuff related to mental health and LGBTQ. So if this stuff bothers you, you might as well not start reading it. So this is sort of a trigger warning for those who are uncomfortable with any of the said content. And if you choose to read it, thank you, hope you enjoy it ✨ This is my first book. Hope you enjoy it ✨
His Heart
"I unbutton her blouse? I actually prefer to rip it, It's alot more efficient" Jay says with a low chuckle as I close the book and put it on the table. "Shut up" I mumble as I make my way to the bathroom, pushing past him. "Calm down princess, just a little joke" He says as he walks in front of me to block my path. "Move" I say angrily as I try to get past but he keeps moving. Can't he just keep his ass still. It's not that hard for fucks sake. "Not until you tell me why you ignored me after we went to the store" He asks as he crosses his arms and I take this as my chance to sprint to the bathroom. I make a beeline and before closing the door I add "I gotta pee" When I shut the door I hear him mumble a faint 'I bet you do' and I blush slightly for some weird reason. --------------------------------- Some would say being cheated on is the worst feeling ever.

Dead Inside Book II
"How could you?!" I said crying,"I though you loved me." He laughs making me cry more. He stands up and slaps me across the face. His eyes burning holes through my head. He pins me against the wall and starts beating me harshly. I feel my organs being smushed and flatten by his punches. "How could I ever love a freak like you?!" He snarled then throws me against the wall once more, leaving the room. Am I really alive? No. I'm still alive, just dead on the inside. ___________________________ If you haven't yet read Book I: HomophobiaComplete

Two broken souls in the midst of a crazy world. Two souls running away from their past. There was no light at the end of the tunnel. The tunnel was cracking, slowly closing in. When these two connect, as if they were set on the same path, light creeps in through the cracks, and for or a moment, the tunnel seems to have a way out, but what if it collapses before they make it? - "You saved my life." The words come out as a whisper, I've been dying to say that. I thank god every day that he came into my life when he did. "Fuck Vivian, you don't know how much I needed you." I tear up just a little as he speaks, I don't know the last time I cried happy tears. I bring my hands up to cup his cheeks, resting my forehead against his. "No matter how much I push, I don't mean it. Please don't give up on me." My words seem to relieve him in some way as I feel his shoulders relax. "Even when I'm gone, I'll be by your side, forever." He brings his hand, sticking his pinky out. "pinky promise."I wrap mine around his, placing a kiss on his lips. Warning before you read!! This is my first book! This book will contain topics of SA, eating disorders, and mature content, if any of these things may bother you in anyway, please scroll! I hope when I finish this book I can public a clean version, with a different perspective leaving out these topics, but for now, this is how i've envisioned this story to go! Enjoy -Ash🌸
