This is a story that is based on basically what every teenages goings through in their early years. Emphasising on "difficult times" and "ways to get out of depression" as most of the story is about that and is also about getting through life as a teenager. Most teenages give up on life way to easy. Not knowing evidently that things often do get better. I, myself, a young teen is a victim of giving up on life when it gets too hard. Being a young teen i know the difficulties one goes through as they compromise on themselves to please others. Pleasing others and ending up being the most unhappy within. Dedicating this story to every young girl and boy out there experiencing tough times and facing life changing decisions at that young crucial age. Hope you find some inspirational topics as you go through the chapters of my book.
Keeping my introduction short and sweet as i am going to detail every emotion in my story to add dramatic effect. Hoping youll connect to it better :)

Where We Were Meant To Meet
"Teenage relationships are fake." That's what most people say. They think it's just drama, temporary attraction, and silly heartbreaks. But sometimes... teenage love can be more pure, more intense, and more real than anything else. This story is about that kind of love. In this book, you'll see how different two people can be .. not just in background, but in how they see the world. The girl belongs to a rich family. She's bold, smart, and knows what she wants. The boy comes from a middle-class home. He's calm, simple, and scared of getting into something as confusing as love. Still, destiny brings them together. They're both toppers, both talented, both teenagers. But when it comes to love .. their thoughts don't match. She falls first .. slowly, softly. And he falls later .. but when he does, he falls harder than ever. This story is not about perfect people. It's about real emotions, silent stares, late-night thoughts, innocent fights, handwritten letters, and unspoken promises. It's about teenage love .. raw, messy, honest. You'll laugh with them. You'll cry with them. You'll smile at their small wins and feel your heart ache at their misunderstandings. Because this book isn't just about romance. It's about growing up, falling for someone when you least expect it, and learning that love doesn't care about status, fear, or timing. So welcome to this journey. A journey where she fell first... and he fell harder. A beautiful, imperfect, unforgettable teenage love story.Complete![Holding Back [COMPLETED]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/145686156-256-k319302.jpg)
Holding Back [COMPLETED]
"I love how this book is turning out!😍 Not cliche at all!" - i_hatecliche "We might live next door to each other," Haley said, "but we don't live in the same world." Hooking her fingers around her backpack straps, she walked away from Jace. She had barely gone a few steps before he was at her side again. "What makes you believe we don't live in the same world?" he asked. "As far as I can tell, we do." "No, we don't. I'm...me and you're Jace Cortez. The dream of every girl. The friend to every guy. The star of the school. Girls. Sports. You're the ultimate player." "It sounds like you have a preconceived notion of who I am." "And it's one that has yet to be proven wrong." From books and a lifetime of sitting on the sidelines, Haley is convinced she knows how the world works, specifically high school. Everyone has a label and a box they fit in. This knowledge, paired with parents who are fighting, a brother leaving soon for college and a best friend who moved away has made her decide to never get involved. It will take being forced to work with her fellow juniors on a project, a boy next door with a infectious smile, a star gazer with an adorable puppy, and an unlikely pair of fangirls to make her see how truly wrong she was about everything.

I Fell in Love with a Bad Boy
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.

highest ranking || #4 on teenfiction || #5 on romance || #2 on new adult || #1 on humor ********************************** I walked outside, found my Uber, and got in the backseat. "Hello." I greeted, before proceeding to tell my driver about the house address. However, I couldn't really do that because as the driver turned around to face me, I realized that Oh! It's Aaron Owens! OH MY GOD. *********************************** Ellie Rosell. Casual teenager trying to get through high school by watching Netflix, eating, spending her money on concerts, and swooning over hot guys. Just when Ellie thought she'll spend her last year of hell known as school with the same boring routine, she met Aaron Owens. And from down there, things changed. For sure. Did they change for the better? Since she's actually making friends, going out, and dare she says, falling in love? Or for the worse? With family secrets, mental health issues, heartbreak, and fake people? After all, she met the one and only Aaron Owens, and he changed her life. *********************************** "Oh my gosh! Author! reading this story was just... I have no words. The adventure you took me on was just dreamy. You made me laugh out loud so hard and you also made me cry. You made me feel the second-hand embarrassments that Ellie felt and it was so lively. You made me feel as if I was Ellie and you gave me hope that I could one day feel the same way as Ellie did towards Aaron. And all of these reasons is why your book is one of the best books I've ever read and let me tell you I've read a lot of books. Thanks for the journey and the hope you have given me! Keep being amazing!"~Layoreo08 *********************************** Started : November, 22nd - 2017.

Don't judge, try to know first. _________________________________ She is rude. He is polite and friendly. She is irritable. He is calm. People want to stay away from her. And he pushes people away from him. What happens when these two completely different persons become each other's company? __________________ _____________ "The more I'm trying to know you, Sid, the more I'm getting confused," I smirk, "I don't think that I can ever get you." "You better not to try," he says with a boyish grin. _ ___________________ ______ Knowing any boy's character never seemed that hard to her before, until she meets him. Getting any girl was never that hard for him, until he meets her. Both of them are not that what they show and both of them had bitter experiences in past what they don't want anyone to know. But what happens when their secrets get revealed. Will they still stay together? Or let each stay alone? [Hey people, let me tell you one thing - this story is a simple story. It doesn't contain any smuts or sexual stuff. So, if you're looking for that kind of story then don't read this. It's an innocent, clean, teenage love story, where my characters are not so good looking, not so special and not so popular. So, it's definitely not like the other teenage love stories you have read before, where the girl is described as an angel from heaven and the boy is described as a famous, handsome bad boy. I'm not insulting anybody, I just want to say that a girl doesn't need to be extremely pretty or a boy doesn't need to be insanely rich and popular to get love in their lives. "Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder." So, hope you're gonna appreciate my message and give my story a big thumbs up up. Please don't forget to hit the star button if u liked my story and u can also pm me if u find any mistake or you can tell me how to make it better.]Complete
