    I can't say magic. Homesickness? Insanity? Yes. But magic? No. Never. Not in the slightest sense of the word-no Houdinis, no magic carpets, and no theme parks-I don't believe in magic, so it's nonexistent.
    Magic.
    Isn't that just for children?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When Kelsey was ten, she saw a boy materialize out of a graffiti painting in her neighborhood in Boston. It's seven years after her family moves to Virginia that she's able to visit her childhood home again, traveling with her high school choir-but the trip doesn't go as she'd planned.

When she sneaks out of her hotel room to wander through her old neighborhood,  Kelsey doesn't expect to meet Jack, the boy she saw seven years ago-or to be led into the magical kingdom in which fairy tales were born.

Kelsey's past is a mess, but her future could become even more confusing. As truths become lies and her allegiance is tested, will Jack guide her through? Or will every step she takes drag her further from home?

Slice of (magic) Life by Azuriko_Kito
27 parts Complete
Axle has known magic his whole life. Not the kind of magic from stage acts and swindlers on the streets, the kind that was used in secret, under the cover of lies and facades. Magic that, when found out by regular non-magic civilians, will be mercilessly sought out and destroyed if they weren't able to use it for themselves. This was his father's warning. But even when kept a secret, danger lurks ever so closely and Axle had to find a way to stop it all on his own... Or did he? Elaine knew she wasn't the only one. She had this feeling that there were others in her high school that did what she could do: real magic. Just when she was mustering up the courage to ask someone else that she thought was like her, danger strikes her school. A danger that she felt was related to her magic. She knew she had to do something about it. Should she deal with the threat alone like she usually faced everything else in her life? Or will she finally confront her suspicions about a certain boy from her school that she was sure had magic like her? ------------------------------------------------------- Huuuge thank you to the user @rainhither for creating this beautiful cover. You're the best!! This is an original story by me. The characters from this work are part of a different, but same universe, original novel I am currently writing. However, the main story of this universe will not be published here (at least that's my decision for now.) since I plan to publish/self-publish that work. Thanks for reading all the way to the end and I hope you like it!
The Sea of You & Me by Fireheart73

Nobody told me adulthood was going to be this way. How I constantly feel like I have no idea what I'm doing. I'd imagine it feels like being stranded in the middle of the ocean with no land in sight. The constant fear and panic of nothing going right. Except when I see him I feel the smallest sense of relief. I was always stuck in the sea of you, but I lost my way. And now, you won't be the one on the boat throwing me a lifevest like you've always done. That ship sailed long ago. It was up to me now to save myself. ------ Kennedy was only supposed to be gone one year. That was the plan. It's been 5.

While everything has changed including her, everything seems to be the same. Will she be able to confront her past including the boy next door that she just can't seem to get rid of? It's taken Cal five years to forget the girl next door. He certainly wasn't expecting his feelings to come flooding back at the moment their eyes found each other. While trying to sort his feelings for his first love, he continues to navigate the next steps of his own future. In the final installment of The Deep End trilogy, Kennedy and Cal are forced together for a wedding after years apart. The gang reunites for more shenanigans and memories while they navigate adulthood. While they have all grown and changed in some ways, has their love for each other remained?

A Boy Named Jasper  {Wattpad Featured Novel} by MidnightRose55
36 parts Complete
For with God nothing shall be impossible. (Luke 1:37) ~~~~~ Jasper is a screwed up kid, yet no one cares enough to find out why. Bruises hide his arms and alcohol stains the walls of his house, but he pushes forward because it's the only thing left for him to do. His days are spent in and out of the school psychologist's office, while his nights are spent in fear of his father. His guitar and the secluded spot by the train tracks where he likes to play are the only saving graces in the hell that is his life. No one disrupted this normal routine until Callie came. Callie is far from screwed up; she doesn't have family issues and doesn't understand the first thing about Jasper's world. Her house is filled with answered prayers and smiles of people who love each other. Her arms are clear and her head is full of optimism that Jasper doesn't buy for a second. She never second guessed her sunny disposition on life until she stumbled upon a boy and his guitar down by the train tracks. Callie and Jasper weren't supposed to cross paths. She wasn't supposed to care and he wasn't supposed to let her get under his skin, but then again opposites weren't supposed to attract either. Callie saw the good in him where most people thought there was none ; she was captivated by Jasper because he made her question everything she knew about the world. She thought it would be easy to teach him that there was still good left in the world, that there was more beyond all the bad he'd become accustomed to. She thought fixing him would be easy, but nothing worthwhile is ever easy and sometimes it takes more than one girl's overly optimistic persistence to pull a person out of the hell they've been living in; sometimes it takes faith and realizing that some things can't be done without it... ~~~~~ -Highest Ranking: #8 in spiritual, 10/25/17 ; #1 in Christianity, 2019 -Wattpad Featured Novel: 10/19/17
