The makeover by Candy_obsessed7

"You know you still want me." he said cockily. "As if!" I yelled at him. "I must say, I like the new look." he all but smirked. ************************** Alex was the shy, quiet nerd that nobody talked to. Although, she was shy at school she was quit loud, crazy , and pretty sarcastic. She just thought that nobody at school was worth her time. Damien was your typical cocky jock. He had the girls, the 'followers', and he was the captain of the soccer team. Now, you're probably wondering how they both fit in to the story. Well, they used to date. It just didn't end well. So, Alex now hates Damien. For the reason that he stole her heart and that he is, as she put it, "an egotistical asshole". ============================= Ok. So this is my first story I don't know how it will turn out. So, please comment and tell me how you think it's going. Oh and mild language.

The Boy Who Surfs by iluvstraqberry_03

Mari Solana has always been a city girl-messy, cheerful, and endlessly clumsy. But when she spends her summer in a seaside town, she's determined to make it the most unforgettable one yet. Her cousin ropes her into joining the local surf club, where Mari discovers two things: 1. She's absolutely terrible at surfing. 2. She keeps crashing-literally-into Azaleas Aurelio Dawn, the town's "Surf Prince." Azaleas is everything Mari isn't: calm, graceful, and admired by everyone. But beneath his soft pink hair and violet gaze lies a boy who hasn't competed in years... and a past he refuses to talk about. As summer days turn into sunsets, and laughter turns into secrets, Mari's bright, clumsy persistence begins to stir something Azaleas thought he'd lost forever-his love for the waves. With the ocean as their witness, will this summer bring a fleeting friendship... or the beginning of first love?

When the rain clouds disappear by Sunnyday3000

Aaron felt that rain clouds surrounded him and he was perfectly comfortable with that, he didn't like people- end of story. That is until Keira, the personification of sunlight and his new next door neighbour comes along and flips his entire love for solitude on its head. Then the rain clouds begin to disappear... Aaron sat and listened to me as shadows danced off his jaw, I watched as it flexed. "I cant believe anyone could find you too much" he said looking almost perplexed by the idea of it. "I mean your laugh, your voice, your smile, it all fits you so perfectly" My breath hitched at his words. No one had ever said that to me it felt almost like a confession of some sorts. Intimately whispered in the soft lighting of my kitchen like a secret being told. I laughed then to break the intense atmosphere that had taken over but it just made his eyes crinkle and his dimples appear. "Oh" was all I could say. I was actually speechless. I mean what could I say to that without spilling my guts to him. Hi! This is a grumpy x sunshine, next door neighbour, he's obsessed with her and she's oblivious to it romcom. Also this is my first ever attempt at writing so please leave any feedback/ improvements you feel I can make in the comments lol. Also I don't usually read over my writing so sorry for any mistakes.

Just Hold Me by Happy1216

"When are you coming back?" I ask, my hands clenching. I'm almost positive they'll snap before he finally responds. "I won't be coming back," he says quietly. "This is the last time I get to see you." Then I broke. My eyes started watering. And before I knew what was happening, I was sobbing. Adam's hand gently goes up and down my arm. "I have to go, Emily." With that, he stands up and walks out of the room. This is it. My first love ever, is leaving me. For good this time. When Emily Jones is forced to spend the summer at her mother's, the last thing she expected was a tall, handsome to sweep her off her feet. More or less. But she wants absolutely nothing to do with him. Although he makes her feel like a princess, she knows it's bad news. Guys are just there to play with your feelings. Once they notice even the slightest bit off affection, they hold back. Never to be seen again. She finds herself looking for him everywhere. Wanting to be around him. But it has to change.

Whisper's To A Stranger: To the Boy Who Didn't Know He Was Listening{COMPLETE✔️} by hazeleyedsoul

She had no one left to talk to. So she talked to him - a man who would never reply. For five years, Vaanika Subramaniam poured her soul into the DMs of a stranger. Not for attention. Not for love. Just to survive. To feel like someone, somewhere, might be listening. To the grief clawing at her chest. To the rage of growing up in a house that fed on silence. To the pain of being a girl the world tried to break - gently, slowly, and then all at once. That stranger? Ekaansh Vashisth. Actor. Icon. Lie. India's most beloved face - with a smile curated to perfection and eyes that forgot how to feel. At 34, he's drowning under fame, betrayal, and the unbearable noise of being wanted by everyone but loved by no one. Until one night - In the haze of heartbreak and insomnia - He opens his DMs. And finds 20,000 messages. From her. Messages that read like confessions. Like poetry. Like someone saw him without ever looking. And for the first time in years - he listens. While he is finally heard. What begins as curiosity becomes obsession. Because her whispers sound like home. Because she was unraveling - and he was the thread she didn't know she was clinging to. - This is not a love story. This is two broken people whispering into the void - and somehow, finding each other there. An age-gap slow burn. A story of unseen love, aching silence, and the way two strangers can unknowingly become each other's lifeline.

"I admit that I don't deserve you, but you know how greedy I am for you, I am selfish for you. Cause I never wanted to give up on you. I almost lost myself in you." "I love you! I love you more than anything! But.. if loving you is so wrong and, if you don't feel good.. then I'll stop being selfish." "Sorry for demanding you to stay longer.

Two broken souls in the midst of a crazy world. Two souls running away from their past. There was no light at the end of the tunnel. The tunnel was cracking, slowly closing in. When these two connect, as if they were set on the same path, light creeps in through the cracks, and for or a moment, the tunnel seems to have a way out, but what if it collapses before they make it? - "You saved my life." The words come out as a whisper, I've been dying to say that. I thank god every day that he came into my life when he did. "Fuck Vivian, you don't know how much I needed you." I tear up just a little as he speaks, I don't know the last time I cried happy tears. I bring my hands up to cup his cheeks, resting my forehead against his. "No matter how much I push, I don't mean it. Please don't give up on me." My words seem to relieve him in some way as I feel his shoulders relax. "Even when I'm gone, I'll be by your side, forever." He brings his hand, sticking his pinky out. "pinky promise."I wrap mine around his, placing a kiss on his lips. Warning before you read!! This is my first book! This book will contain topics of SA, eating disorders, and mature content, if any of these things may bother you in anyway, please scroll! I hope when I finish this book I can public a clean version, with a different perspective leaving out these topics, but for now, this is how i've envisioned this story to go! Enjoy -Ash🌸

𝑾𝒉𝒊𝒔𝒑𝒆𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝑷𝒓𝒐𝒎𝒊𝒔𝒆𝒔 (✓) by DAYDREAMER_DEE

(not edited) This is the book I never even admired. It was more like a journal for me-just ranting and never meant to be published. I only uploaded it so that my friend could read it, and I never imagined people would actually love it. So, it's nothing like Whispered Vows-that's the book I poured my heart and soul into, dedicating 5-6 months completely. So please, don't judge me by this book 😂!! It was written when I was a teen and remained just a draft for almost a year from 2022 to 2024. Happy Reading ✨ (SHORT STORY) #𝑾𝒉𝒊𝒔𝒑𝒆𝒓 𝒔𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒔 1 ~𝑨𝒃𝒉𝒊𝒎𝒂𝒂𝒏 𝑺𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒉 𝑺𝒊𝒔𝒐𝒅𝒊𝒂 -19 - 30 age (at the start of the story) -6'2 height -sunshine ~𝑲𝒂𝒗𝒚𝒂 𝑹𝒂𝒋𝒗𝒂𝒏𝒔𝒉 -18-29 age - 5'2 height -ambivert . .

No Cobie, don't look at his abs! "I..." I started, "I don't know how to explain it." "Start from the beginning." I know when to start; I just don't know how to explain! But either way, he should be the one explaining why he's in that in the first place! "I..." I sighed, "I was driving to Denovan and stopped in the middle of the forest." "Why?" He asked as his eyebrows raised, suddenly, he looked serious. "Did you see a wolf? A ghost? Did you saw something behind your side mirror?"

Raindrops Book 1: Cry by MsLolaLove

"Wake up" A whisper. I pricked up my ears then, like some sort of wolf or predator listening in the distance for its prey; I held my breath and searched for the taciturn voice. The ringing was getting even louder, banging my head in an annoying manner. Slowly, I contemplated closing off the sounds of the bells and slipping away into the silent infinity. "Shay!" Then I opened my eyes. ***** Summer is supposed to be fun right? Tell that to Shay Hunter. This summer was supposed to have been the best one yet; instead, the only person that ever truly cared about her vanished like thin air With her father gone and her mother turned to alcohol for support, Shay closes her shell and finds comfort in the deepest parts of her imagination. That's when Avian shows up. He is determined to make her open up to him and Shay cannot decide if she likes the brown haired stranger that makes the butterflies in the pits of her insides run wild. Can she let herself accept this unusual human being that got her sent to the principal's office for the first time, or will she let her pride cost her the little bit of sanity she had left? Though Avian may be cheerful, he's hiding a secret; a secret that makes Shay wonder whether or not mankind is truly all born to die Could she just close up her shell once more and let her subconscious take over? Or can she fight? And maybe even inspire a certain brown haired boy with chocolaty brown eyes... THIS BOOK IS COPYRIGHTED BY THE STATE OF ONTARIO! DO NOT COPY, OR YOU CAN BE SUED.
