Isabelle Scott hasn't had the greatest life: Her mother died when she was young; her neglectful father has moved her around the country constantly since she was seven-years-old; and for years, she's forgotten major details and significant chunks of time.

For the first time in her life, however, things have begun to look up. Her father had finally agreed to quit with the constant moving so she could have a normal Senior year in high school, and almost immediately after the school year started, she began to make friends fast and even edged towards getting a boyfriend. And even her memory blackouts seemed to come to screeching halt. 

But of course, it was all too good to be true.

Only three months after the move, Isabelle starts to have intense dreams filled with fire that feel far too real. She comes home from her school prom one night and learns that her father is missing, and the only lead she has on what happened comes from a childhood friend she hasn't spoken to in years who just shows up on her doorstep, claiming to have all the answers. Isabelle feels she has no choice but to trust him--her father is all she has left--and her friend quickly becomes the key to a past that was hidden from her, and leads her to a future that she could never have imagined in her wildest dreams, even ones crackling with flame.

Why We Laugh (#Wattys2018) by CarpeDiemWrite
40 parts Complete Mature
"The laugh cracked loudly into the school's atrium, like a shot of a gun. A quick bullet. A deadly bullet the pierces through flesh and bone. I realized then... that a laugh was as lethal as a bullet." I thought bullying didn't exist. And if it did, I wasn't a bully. Except I was. We all were. Not because we beat kids up. Or we called people freaks. Or gave them swirlies. Because we never did that. It was because we laughed." For these three kids, a playful laugh cuts deeper than a fist ever would. And the worst part is...they laugh along. 1.Eliza hides behind the brightest smile and stuttered words. 2.Reece desires the perfect body and will destroy himself to do it. 3.Hunter is the bad boy with sick suicidal jokes, screwing both Prozac and girls. But it is more than just those three: 4.London sits in her wheelchair trying to be normal 5. Ashton needs to return to the surface of people and stop cowering in the digital world 6. Griffith hides his autistic emotions. The story is told by a girl who always laughs. Drama, love, pain, tears, laughter, depression, weaknesses. We all laugh. But what does our laugh truly effect? "Hands down this is the best book I've read on wattpad. I don't even know what to say. I mean... I just.... Wow." -Irxdeo This book deals with heavy topics such as depression, suicide, eating disorders, abuse, so read carefully. I want to say some of these characters and scenes in the beginning are based on real people and real events, but some are not. Hi, guys! Thanks for checking this story out. Remember be brave and kind.

|| Featured FREE story with exclusive paid chapters - previously a paid story || When Haley discovers the truth behind Xavier, whose silence holds a deeper meaning, she sets her mind on making his life better one small step at a time. ***** Haley Rosamond is happy with her simple life, content under the wing of her father. Well-protected, she has no idea of the darkness surrounding Xavier Hunt, with his all-black attire and infrequent presence in school-accompanied by his bruises and scars. That is, until Haley catches a glimpse of Xavier's reality and is made to question everything she knows about family and life in general. The truth, she realizes, couldn't be more different from everything she has heard. Supported by her father, Haley sets her mind on helping Xavier any way she can, and what begins with tutoring sessions, free food, and random acts of kindness blooms into friendship and something a little more. But when Haley's admission into her dream college and another tragedy in Xavier's life threaten to undo everything she has worked for, Haley needs to decide if she'll stick by Xavier or simply be another person in his life that disappears.
