You never thought you'd have to figure out how to grow up at twenty-five but then again you never pictured yourself setting your boyfriend's PlayStation on fire in the parking lot of your apartment complex. We all make poor choices at some point in time or another and let's be honest here, Jake was a poor choice.
He was handsome and put together, he had a decent job and he paid his half of the bills on time every single month. He was dependable in every single way as long as you didn't depend on him for emotional support.
"Chin up, Emma," He'd tell you with that crooked smile you'd come to see as endearing, "It'll all work itself out in the end."
And it did. It really did work itself out in the end. Just... not in the way he wanted it to or really, in the way you wanted it to.
No, instead, Jake slept with the fat hobbit he worked with and you were arrested for turning into a lunatic because of it.
"She doesn't even shower." You sobbed to your mom on the phone while you explained why she needed to pick you up at the police station.
And that's why you wound up here. In your mother's basement, learning the in's and out's of a social circle twice your age. Drinking tea and not even getting set up with anyone's under achieving son because your mom's already told them all that you're off the market until you stop being bonkers.
But when have you ever really stopped being bonkers?

Hades
~"You don't know me." I snap. "Sure, I don't. We've only spent more than half of our lives together. But I don't know you. Like at all, I don't." He says sarcastically, making me stand up from my chair and stand in front of him with crossed arms. He keeps seated on my bed, looking just as angry as myself. I study his face for a really short second and internally groan. Puberty did really hit him good. ~ · Why would Hades think that after two years of not seeing Emma and not answering her calls, she would still be the same? How could he expect her to still be that weak little girl that depended on him? No, Emma has changed into somebody he has yet to discover. Two years ago, these two had their biggest fight. Best friends should get over it and move on, right? But what if there was no way they could talk it out, due to an unpleasant misunderstanding? Two years of not hearing shit from each other.

He's supposed to be here to protect me, because if the got me... blood smears the pages of the passed. "Sapphire!" I hear him call. "Coal!"

The only safe place anymore is pressed against him under the sheets. "Coal!" I call out again. ---I can hear her. She's here somewhere I know it. I can smell her sent threw the thick of the woods.

Manic Crush (Book #1 Crush Series)
Every girl has 'that' crush. You know what I'm talking about. The one boy who's the first thought on your mind when you wake up, and the last thought before you go to sleep. The one you carefully select your clothes for, don your best makeup, and style your hair perfectly for. I had 'that' crush. Brock was hot; he was sexy and alpha, with dark smoldering eyes and tattoos that littered his rock-hard body. My poor seventeen-year-old heart had no clue how to handle it, because my badass crush wasn't a boy. He was a man; a nightclub owning married man, who also happened to be my best friend's stepdad. I wasn't the only one who was crushing on Emma's stepdad. He knew it too, but the best part about Brock was that he looked like a badass, he acted like a badass, but he treated every single teenage girl in his home with the utmost respect. He had plenty of admirers, but Emma hated anyone who flaunted their shit in front of him. He'd taken her dad's place. He'd moved in not two months after she'd lost him and had tried to 'parent' her. We hated him together; but secretly I adored him. I spent almost three years in a hoodie, scowling at the hottest man in L.A. The day he left Emma's mom was the happiest and saddest day of my life. If you're going to lose your crush, though, ripping it off like a band-aid is the best way to do it. One day he was there and the next he was gone. And now, seven years later, I'm about to walk into his nightclub and audition for him. He's not the man I remember. He's sexier, more intense, and has connections that are not exactly as wholesome as I assumed. But that only makes me want him more....Complete
The one that stole his heart
Penelope is the girl everyone at school made fun of because of her weight. She always thought no guy would ever give her a second look until him. Aarons the type of guy you would only be seen with popular girls. Until she caught his eyes. ___________________________________________ I'm being woken up by someone climbing into my bed. "What the hell?" I see Aaron trying to get under my sheets. "Aaron what are you doing get out." "I like being with you." He slurs and that's when I smell the alcohol. I lay back down and he snuggles into my sheets facing me. "Why are you here?" I whisper. "It hurt me to see you cry." I just stare at him confused. He has his eyes closed and I just stare at him. "Emma is a bitch." I let out a small giggle. "Then why do you hang out with her?" "Good fuck." I just nod. I don't really like hearing him say that. Do I like Aaron? I mean he's attractive but I know he would never give me a second look. Who would? "Your so beautiful." I hear him whisper, I instantly open my eyes thinking I imagined him saying that. "Who?" I ask. "You." I feel butterflies in my stomach. I've never been called beautiful by a guy before.Complete

When I was Your Man (Larry Stylinson)
"Too young, too dumb to realize, That I should have bought you flowers and held your hand Should have gave you all my hours when I had the chance Take you to every party cause all you wanted to do was dance Now my baby is dancing, but he's dancing with another man." Things were never supposed to be like this. Growing up, life was so simple. You met a person, you fell in love, and things ended happy ever after. But this is real life. Sometimes, people don't end up with who they belong. People sometimes take what they have for granted. If you don't appreciate what you have, then maybe you just might lose it.

Louis could have been his man. All he had to do was say yes. But sometimes things are a little more complicated than that. Sometimes you don't realize what you have until it's gone.Complete
FBI's Most Wanted
It started with hustling pool. He needed some sort of income. Living off the streets at twelve years old isn't easy in any respect, but it helps to have money. Then came the pickpocketing. It's amazing how much cash someone carries in their wallet at a time. Just a brief bump and he can easily slip a hand in a pocket. He'd have to use the credit cards quickly. He could match a signature well enough that a machine wouldn't care. It would only be a matter of time until the card was canceled, but he'd have it long enough to buy a new pair of shoes or a jacket in the winter. And the cash, he'd save that for a rainy day. Then came the shoplifting. He finds its easier to steal directly from the source. Hiding a twenty dollar shirt in a hoodie pocket was easier than finding the twenty dollars themselves, and showing up at the grocery store right when it opens and shoving an apple down his throat when no one was looking isn't as complicated as it sounds. It was never supposed to get violent. He was just trying to keep himself alive. He didn't expect them to be home. But then he made a game of it, and he never truly realized how high the stakes were - not until there were weapons involved. He did what he had to do. He snatched the knife, and what happened to the man, he'll never know. It was a nasty wound, though. If he did somehow survive it, he'll almost certainly never walk again. That day changed everything. It opened up a world of possibilities. He's been breaking the law for months, but it never occurred to him that he could just outright ignore it. He'll do what he has to do, and he'll do what he wants to do, and no law is going to stop him. And that's how this seventeen-year-old Gabriel Adams became the FBI's most wanted serial killer.Complete
