Noah Rykerson needs help. Just like any normal down-on-luck twenty year old girl, she has had her fair share of combats and long hauls in life. The human body - and mind - was only made to endure so much.
What happens when Noah hits her limit?
What happens when she is at her breaking point?
What happens when she is ultimately --
Tarnished?
Noah knew the road to being clean wasn't going to be easy, but what has she got to lose?
" I'll try. I want to be clean again. So I'll try. "
-
Largely inspired by Taylor Swift's Clean.
P.S. I don't own the song. Obviously. But hey check it out sometime, it's a good one.

The Bad Boy Saved Me
Do you ever wonder what life would be like if it were a movie? Or some sappy romance novel that you wish your life could be like but it's not? Sometimes you may even get to caught up in the fictional world that you don't realise it IS fictional. Then when you do realise life isn't what you convinced yourself it would be, there is only one possible outcome. Depression. Which may lead to anxiety, self-harm, low self esteem, and worst of all, losing the people you love. Life works in weird ways. Not just for you but for others too. Take Cassidy Rivers for example. Her life is far from perfect. No parents, over protective big brother, few friends, and Asher Norman, the bad boy who won't stop picking on her. Could life get any worse for Cassidy?Complete

Chance Taylor really wishes his life would slow down. He's tired of moving. Noah Brennan really needs a change. He's been stuck in the same town his whole life, which he loves and hates at the same time. When Chance moves to yet another new town, he expects it to turn out the same way it always has-hiding from people, refusing to make connections with anyone or anything, not unpacking his stuff because he knows he probably won't be there longer than a year. But on his first night there, he quite literally bumps into a boy named Noah, and they quickly become friends. But with Noah's growing instability and Chance's inexperience with friendship, will it last?Complete
