Alex Thompson is living through her own personal hell. The only person who makes it better, if only slightly, is her step- mom; Claire, who's more of mom then her real mother could ever be.
Her dad is even worse then her mother. He's practically always gone, and when he is home, let's just say that she'd rather eat a raw dead worm . Yeah, that bad.
But she's not one to back down, even when she should. Nope, she fights back. She's strong on the inside and out... Or is she? When she gets the opportunity to leave her city and find a safer place to stay where her dad won't find her, will she take the chance? Or will she stay where she is and continue to live this mess she calls life? Yeah, the answer is pretty clear.
With new friends who teach her it's okay to be weak and cry it out at times. With a jealous bully and with her step-mom who supports her through out the way... Will she be able to sort out her messes and make it, or will she give up?

The Inceptive Flame⎪✓
"Do they not say that a good friendship builds on a ground of lies?" I joke, lightening the mood immediately as his green eyes glint in humor and a smirk falls on his familiar lips. "Do you kiss a lot of your friends, love?" The underlying tones threaten to provoke a blush on my cheeks, but I get myself together. Smirking at him, "Well, of course, is that not the norm?" *********** Dakota Moore is the perfect example of a beautiful disaster. Her wisdom is ready to knock anyone down, her self worth is an exact replica of the way her father raised her, and her pain so intense it screams over every building. She refuses to show anyone what's going on behind closed doors, especially when her lovely father gets the traumatic news that he has an incurable disease. Elijah Black is the spur of the moment kind of guy, he's the one no one ever settles with because of his angry outbursts and rude ways. Even though he throws everyone off, except for when they want sexual advances, he still can't help but feel enthralled by the freckled girl who's hiding so many secrets behind a fake smile. As they clash and try to reject the obvious rush, will they accept their attraction, or is everything just too much? After all, how can two ruined teenagers manage a youthful love without destroying themselves in the process?

Parasitic relationship
Parasitic relationship - one in which one organism, the parasite, lives off of another organism, the host, harming it and possibly causing death. A girl who not many people liked. A girl who was always bullied by others. A girl who was always sick. A girl who was so skinny she was unattractive. The only person in the world who truly cared for her and protected her was her father. But he soon met his demise. All of a sudden, she came across a handsome and attractive young man who worked under a funeral parlour who was really kind and caring and was there to support her. Even she didn't know why, but she was glad he was there for her. To support her. Something even her own friends couldn't do... But of course, like her, he was simply an emotional teenager as well. And as time passed by, he started to fall for her. Except, she saw him as a danger to her. Especially if they ended up in a relationship. It was better to avoid this. But you just can't avoid the media and insecure teenagers, can you? You can't avoid all those manic girls who are out there to get you, can you? With all these lies and rumours that spread...Was he really someone who was there to support her or there to ruin her life?Complete

Because of Karson
Dakota is just like every other 17 year old high school senior. Or that's what everyone thinks. Everyone sees Dakota as this funny, sarcastic, and caring girl. What people don't see is how much she is truly suffering inside. People don't know that the smile she always wears is completely fake. They don't know what's really going on at home. They don't see the bruises she has to cover up every morning. They don't see her having to step up to take care of her two younger siblings. She puts on a fake smile as soon as she walks through the school doors and slowly builds her walls up higher as each day goes on. She thinks no one will ever see past her facade...that is, until three new bad boys come strolling into town taking an automatic interest in Dakota. And one certain bad boy can read her like an open book. Will Dakota eventually let these three bad boys in? Or will she keep everything in until she finally reaches her breaking point?

Black & White
A story, in which a typical teenage girl falls for the school's bad boy. Except, she's not that typical and he's not that much of a bad boy. *** "If I told you that I care about you, more than anyone in your life does, would you believe me?" He asked me, his jaw clenched. I could tell he was furious. Yet somehow, I wasn't scared of him. "No" I shook my head bravely. "If I told you,'' He tried again, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath before continuing.''That you make me so fucking mad, I want to punch a fucking wall. What would you say?" He had me trapped now, my back painfully colliding with the wall behind me. I gasped at the impact, looking up into his icy grey eyes. They were cold, emotionless. As always. "Do it!" I dared him with the last ounce of courage I had left in me. The sound of his fist smashing through the wall right next to my head, made my ears ring for a brief moment. I opened my mouth to speak again, shaking slightly, only for him to pull away and leave me standing there alone. ____ !!Warning!!
