Farrah Travers didn't know how to feel when she was told that she had to go to Silverhaven to live with her sister's family in their small house. Her first thought was that her parents no longer wanted her around because they refused to tell her why she was suddenly being sent away, and her second was that she would never survive in a place that was a far cry from her real home. They told her she would fit in, make new friends and find joy in a new way of living but Farrah knew that she would never ever see it their way.
With little choice she took the train that fateful morning in despondent spirits. Unknown to her, Farrah's quiet black and white world was about to be painted over with colors brighter than any she had ever seen.

Dissolution Detachment
Synopsis: What happens when your career is all set, and you think everything is right, but denial can wash away? Everything you thought you couldn't reach, you have, all thanks to your best friend/BL partner, but then everything falls apart overnight. Like the blink of an eye, it's all over, and when the dust settles, it is not who you think would be by your side, picking you up and putting you back together. All the while, on the other side of things, jealousy can change a person and cover feelings that are not really there. Perhaps being alone is sometimes the best medicine. Love doesn't wait and is not always where you want it to be. You can't force it on someone, no matter the circumstances. The past will be explained, everyone's side of the story will be seen, and one story in the beginning will lead to others. One person only wanting to affect another actually affects everyone else. Words can hurt more than anyone can know and can change everything. By the end, ALL secrets will be revealed from EVERYONE.Complete
✔Celestial Beauty
Growing up, I always thought that there was something terribly wrong with me. Because while everyone else had no problem blindly following orders, I had always been more curious. I realized I wasn't the only one when I met my friends. We came up with a whole plan to wait until graduation and then leave. We were so close, until it all went backwards. All this time we thought that it was unlivable atmosphere outside of the barriers. That no one else dared to be curious. Turns out there was a real good reason for that. As they used to say, curiosity did kill the cat.Complete

Front Line
Being on the front line doesn't always mean facing the obvious, being on the front line can be as simple as facing life head-on with no clue where you're going. Life is as much of a front line in the wider perspective than the narrower of that of a battle, where the enemy is known and destination is everywhere but backwards. Therefore in life everyone has a story, this is no different. This story tells the story of Julianna Monroe (Name changed to hide/protect myself), and how even the simple things in life can alter the future in the most minute of ways. Not everything in life has to be all song and dance for it to be interesting and diverse, the story of Julianna's life will show and connect to those with lives just the same as hers who are not able to speak about their experiences. Her story begins when she is around 3-4 years old, just about to start the very first away-from-home experience children in the United Kingdom are encouraged to do. Nursery. Here kids just like Julianna are given the freedom and chance to explore outside of the home environment, without the feeling of an academic learning facility. Julianna is a child rather used to home comforts, so even at the beginning on the long road to get to where she is today, there are struggles and many points in at which she feels lost. However, despite all the minor stumbles on the bottom rung of this ladder, this is the start of an adventure, a journey to test everything Julianna is made of. Her story starts now...Complete
So We Ran✔️
Grey Hayden didn't fit into any specific category. She was girly, geeky, sporty, rebellious, studious, and... Average. She was just Grey. The things that made her special were things that'd go unnoticed by the naked eye. You'd have to really see her in order to see who she was. Luckily, she had four people who'd done just that. Four friends that were more like siblings. Except for one. Jackson was always a friend, a good one, but there were subconscious feelings that just didn't allow for him to be referred to as a brother. They were never acted upon, for the simple reason that he was out of her league. He was a beautiful bad boy, and she was a simple, tolerable girl. But, he didn't see a simple girl. He saw so much more. When the feelings finally make their way out into the open, Grey's opportunity to run, like she always wanted, was too tempting to pass up. So, they ran. Or, drove, really. They packed a few things and drove. They drove across the country to the Big Apple, where they try to establish a place to call home.Complete
