  *cover made by weird_liv*
    
           Daxton Smythe will never be the same after the fatal car accident when he was fourteen that killed his mother. Three years later, he is still suffering. He will never be able to escape the past.
    
           However, Dax's life has been going smoothly for a while. His guardian is one of the best he could ask for, his older brother is still there for him, and he's still close with his best friend. Things will always be this way, right?
    
           Wrong.
    
           Dax is in his senior year of high school, which soon turns into a roller coaster. He never thought life would be any worse than it was when he was fourteen and fifteen. Boy, was he wrong.
    
           After all, what's senior year without some drama?
    
    Warning: Mild language and sensitive topics. Might have some trigger warnings, especially because of Dax's condition.

Luckily he would do the same ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I don't know what to do Xavier..." I cry uncontrollably into his chest as he holds onto me for dear life. "I know love. I know." "I'm such a bother to yall." I choke out. "I'm so fucking weak. I can't even defend myself." Xavier's arms unwrap from my body, and his hands hold my teary face. "I'm a worthless h-human." Xavier furrows his eyebrows in pain. A tear of his own falling down his face. "No," he says shaking his head. "No. You've never been a bother to me. You aren't weak. And you most certainly aren't worthless." I gasp to breathe, and he continues talking. "What you are is an amazing person who hasn't let all of this crazy bullshit affect her. You handled it like a champ. What you are is a strong, brave being that has stood by my side." I breathe as he leans closer. "What you are, is the love of my life...."

CRINGE WARNING! First book I ever wrote on here!! -- "Sometimes the person who you are willing to take a bullet for is the person behind the gun." I stood peering over the cold lifeless body that lay before my eyes. I had always thought of death the enemy, but right now, I blessed it upon the person who is now at peace. Sometimes you don't need to be the smartest, or the fastest, but you do need to be wisest. They say the blood runs deeper than water, and I believe it, because even though the people that we love can turn on us and begin to hate us, they are only human, meaning that soon they will begin to see how short life really is and how it is not to be wasted. People who seem perfect and they look like they have no floors'; they are the people who are suffering, like I was. But I found my savior in the most uncommon place. He was able to look through my mask, he saw the cracks, and tried to fix the broken girl that hid away deep inside the girl who only wanted to be seen as 'fine'. I slowly began to find comfort and safety in him, and I did the same to him. We were two broken people becoming whole. Someone once said when you pass, if you can count your true friends on one hand you are beyond lucky, and I even though I did not like the person that lay before me, I know that he once had true friends, including me. I'm a 17 year old girl who has suffered more than any other, beginning to believe that 'Hope' was just another word the people throw around. Until I fell in love with a badboy.

...We were so caught up in the shared moment of care free joy to notice the midnight grey Toyota pickup truck speeding directly towards us. Meters before impact dad finally caught on to what was about to happen, despite it being day the approaching vehicle's headlights blinded us as our cars breaks slammed on, the sound of the tires melting away as the rubber tires scraped against the pavement filled the air and the scent of burning rubber overwhelmed my nostrils, despite our efforts the brakes didn't slow us down, we were to late. There was nothing we could do as we collided head on..." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Attempt two at writing a book lmao, summaries without spoilers are not my strong point but here you go: After a tragic child hood accident Astra is left utterly alone, forcing her to make a massive move across the states to live in Tennessee with her grandmother. A few years pass and Astra finds it difficult to deal with the trauma she experienced as a young child, but surrounded by friends and throwing herself into education she starts to heal, until she meets Jason. In the beginning Jason was a kind, caring guy who seemed genuinely interested in getting to know Astra, but not everyone is who they seem to be. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ TW LIST!!!! (there's alot) swearing, lots PTSD/past trauma Character death Violence/ injury detailing Stalking Kidnapping Depression, anxiety Panic attacks Alcohol and drug usage Over thinking Self harm/sabotage Survivors guilt Potential homophobia Eating disorders If there's anything you think needs to be posted as a TW then let me know, also please don't read if there is anything that triggers you.

Available on Amazon! http://hyperurl.co/r93gn4 Wattpad's version is a draft. There may be minor typos and errors. Olivia was the laid back, girl next door in Charlotte favorited for her charms. Olivia never really paid any attention to the guys in school and she's never let herself fall in love. Ever. With college just months away, she had no interest in beginning a new relationship. Besides, she just wanted to enjoy her senior year with minimal distractions. Then her adoptive parents decide to foster an arrogant, irritating guy, who frustrated her to no end. But then tension, oh sweet tension, grows between them whenever the other is near. How is Olivia supposed to fight the inevitable if they live alone in the same house? How is she supposed to not become attached or fall for his cool, flirty, and sometimes reckless personality? Especially when they both forget about the rules. Tyler didn't expect anyone to want to foster him, but SGA was getting old anyway. With his father out of his life, it was time to finally live it without risking getting arrested for doing anything else illegal. Olivia wasn't supposed to become part of his world. How could she? With his past following him like his shadow... ~~~~ Listen to it on Audible: https://www.audible.com/pd/B0B14NK2V4/?source_code=AUDFPWS0223189MWT-BK-ACX0-308441&ref=acx_bty_BK_ACX0_308441_rh_us Paperback on Amazon: http://hyperurl.co/r93gn4 Wattpad's version is a draft.

THIS IS COMPLETELY UNDER RECONSTRUCTION: I'm here to give you a better written and updated version. (July 2024) After a terrible hate crime suffered by 16 year old Luke, everything changes. His mom uproots his life and moves him to a small city in Vermont. Things are starting to look up for Luke, new friends and a new start, no one knows his story here. At this new place, no one knows how broken he is. He hides it well, convincing even his mom that he's not emotionally affected by these awful scars. He has to hide who he is, he will no longer be the 'dorky gay kid', he's just the straight mysterious new kid with a broken arm and a scarred face. Hiding who he is as a person is getting hard for him to deal with. He's always been an open guy, and he's not sure how much longer he can tell lame excuses about how he got the thick angry red slice that runs down from his eyebrow to his jaw....The worst part is pretending to be straight, which was his moms idea of course. He meets the very athletic and openly gay Brett, who starts to try getting close to him. but he can't allow that temptation. Will Luke be strong enough to be himself? Or will he lose himself in his new identity?
