Matthew Summers finds Carl Johnson's body in his lawn. A gun in hand and a bullet through the head, they say it was suicide.
He finds himself guilty for what happened without any reason. But he thinks that it's not suicide, he was murdered. And so he searches for an answer himself.
Later on, he acquires a journal...
A journal that could give him answers, and clues about the murder of Carl Johnson.
Everything he needed to know was in there. He could retrace the steps of the murderer. But what's the catch?
The murderer threatens to kill him if he doesn't stop what he's doing.

{This is not a fanfiction ^^;} [Also, ⚠️TRIGGER WARNING⚠️] Raven is a 15 year old girl with some family issues. Well, more like issues in general. She just can't seem to catch a breather from her parents' fighting and yelling and then involve her, which was annoying. She wanted to get out of there, but living on her own was impossible considering her age, so she moves to her favourite family member, her uncle: Moji. Though he lived in a house with 17, 20, 22, 23 and 27 year olds, him being 27 as well, she was welcomed. He lived in another city, not too far though, but Raven didn't forget about her other life that nobody should get involved with. Her uncle knew about it...but he didn't say anything. Will she manage to get away unscathed and live her life secretly, or will the others interfere? Let's hope not...Complete
Suicidal Attraction {Old Version}
"When people who have trust issues fall in love it's scary. The people they fall for fill up that hole in their life that was left by someone who caused them to have trust issues. The person starts to fill whole and happy; like this person is the one. But when that one person leaves,the one who made them invincible,they're crushed. The persons life gets worse and they fall deeper and deeper into that hole. The hole of what used to be." Kira Green is one that never wanted to fall in love. She planned on being alone and pushed everyone who loved her away. She gets bullied relentlessly even though she tries her hardest not to be seen. But in our society,the more one tries to hide, the more one is exposed. When Logan Williams came bursting into her life like he did, she didn't know what to think of this charming boy. He was different than the rest of the world. For the first time, a person wanted to know about the scars on Kira's heart than the ones on her wrists. She doesn't trust him at all. She wants absolutely nothing to do with Logan,but somehow he finds a way to meddle his way into her life. And when he figures out more about Kira,he's more than shocked. He doesn't see a girl who hates the entire world ,but hates herself even more. He doesn't see a fat, ugly, whore when gazing into her eyes. He sees a girl who's been wronged by the world left and right. He sees a girl who cares music more than she cares about her own life. He sees a person who needs love. But not everyone who you try to save ends up being saved in the end. Sometimes it's just too late. As Kira always says ,"Happily ever after was so once upon a time." This book does not promote self harm or suicide. And it also doesn't romanticize it. It simply is a story about two broken people on a quest to fix one another and mange to somehow fall in love with each other along the way. FYI THIS IS NOT A FAN FICTION! THIS IS AN ORIGINAL STORY CREATED BY ME!!!Complete

Moments not Mine
Esme was the last person to see her best friend alive. Now, everyone-friends, family, even the police-suspects her of a crime she didn't commit. Desperate to prove her innocence, she uncovers a hidden digital world her best friend had kept secret: a web of fake accounts, cryptic messages, and untold clues. One account, in particular, becomes her lifeline-a place where her best friend confided, joked, and dropped hints about her life. Here, Esme meets someone unexpected; actually two someones: two mysterious guys who help her piece together the puzzle, but neither of them knows what the other looks like. Every conversation is charged with curiosity, trust, and tension, as they navigate messages, hidden posts, and the shadows of a life Esme never truly knew. In a world where everyone is suspect and nothing is as it seems, Esme must follow the digital breadcrumbs to uncover the real killer-and maybe discover a connection she never expected. Author's Note 💌 Hey lovely readers! ✨ First off, thank you so much for opening Moments Not Mine. This story has been swirling in my head for a while, and I finally decided to put it all down for you to experience. Esme's journey is mysterious, tense, and kinda emotional-so buckle up 😅. She's just an ordinary girl caught in extraordinary circumstances, and I hope you enjoy every twist, clue, and secret she uncovers. Oh, and a little heads-up: there's a lot of online mystery, secrets, and a tiny dash of tension (and maybe some sparks 😏), so keep your eyes peeled and your theories ready. Thanks for reading, for commenting, for theorizing, and just for vibing with this story. Your support means the world 💛. Stay curious, -Esme's very nervous but excited author 😅💫
'Broken Image' ♡ (MXM) ♡
(This is targeted for people 16+) "Same with hurting you. Or marking you.." He slid his arm gently down to his back, closing his hand around a bruise that lay on the hero's waist. The hero flinched at the action, still keeping his lips sealed. "I can be the only one capable of doing it.." "Your fucking crazy..." The hero sighed with a bit of fear hidden in his tone. The man smiled with the description, turning his head in the direction of Oxzy's ear, he spoke with a sweet voice. "I can make you go even crazier than me Ox..." ------- A hero and a villain in the same low-profile town, they battle. One protecting, one destroying. The town tries to break them apart, but instead... They grow closer. The hateful and spiteful relationship can only last for so long. So long until it becomes something that can be remotely called anything like love. Love that ends up revolving around trauma and the hindering of emotions.

White As A Lie
"You're telling me you didn't do it?" she asked. "Yes. I don't know what happened. I was asleep when it...when she..." Crystal's face was the prime example of someone who wasn't believing what they were being told. "Suicide, you're suggesting?" I didn't answer. "Well, Mr. McCain, according to your test results, you're clear," she leaned closer. "But between you and me, I don't believe the tests." Nolan McCain is a normal high school counselor, when suddenly his world is turned upside down when he's accused of murdering his wife. These days, your blood turns darker with each crime you commit, and when they test Nolan's, it's white as snow. Detective Crystal Parkes is on the case as soon as she hears this. "You saw the test results. My blood is white as snow, the chief said it himself." I said. "White as snow," Crystal squints at me. "Or white as a lie?" **Brief strong languageComplete
FAKE
PROLOGUE My name is Alex Kahill. On July 15, 2017, I killed a person, but am not accused of murder. However, I am being hunted by those who hold me responsible for this death...and most certainly, these folks fully intend to terminate my life. Three months ago, my life was actually better than good. I was taking a personal sabbatical in picturesque Western New York, doing three things that I dearly love. (1) Riding my bike (2) Flying my drone and (3) Visiting my son, Ben, who was interning as an environmental reporter for the Chautauqua Daily, a local paper serving the Chautauqua Institution. Better than good. And then out of nowhere, my existence went to shit. You know, the killing thing. So I'm writing this journal as a cry for help. In an effort to make some sense of the tragic events that have recently unfolded in my life, I'm hoping that if enough light is shed on what happened to me, my potential demise might literally become "troublesome" for those who would do me harm...maybe I'm just being naive, but it's worth a shot. At this point, I don't really have much to lose. I am no writer, so please bear with me. But know that I am totally vulnerable, so I'll try to be thorough as I tell my story. It probably would be good to start at the beginning.Complete![Death doesn't scare me [L x Reader] • Death Note](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/273794968-256-k817912.jpg)
