"Are you Happy?" is such a difficult question. I always say yes. Because I have friends, I laugh at jokes; I go out a lot and have fun. My life isn't as bad as it could be and I don't have terrible problems. It could be worse. Right?
    But then, one night at 3am when I'm alone, still awake, lying in bed, thinking about life, I find myself crying my heart out. I feel horrible and I question everything I had. I don't know if I was ever happy at all and yes, things just got worse.
    
    Jericho 'Ricky' Davis is your typical 'more-than-average' high school student at first glance. he seems to have it all; from friends to girls, popularity at school and even good grades. However, as his story unravels, we learn that Ricky is struggling with a broken relationship with his father, an aunt at the verge of death and a life that just might fall apart.
   After all, everything is not what it seems
    
    This is not some sappy romance story. There is no promise of a happily ever after.
    Yes there will be a lot of eye rolling and provocation and yes you might be force-fed a bowlful of aggravating emotions but please try your hardest not to hunt me down and strangle me afterwards. Thank you :)All Rights Reserved

Icarus by lola-n

Summary: This story is about an incredible unique autistic girl and her two equally incredible best friends. Will they ever get out of the friend zone? A little taste of the story: Is it a sin to love someone too much? To say I miss her is an understatement. I can't eat. Can't sleep. Can't function. She is constantly on my mind as she dwelled herself deep inside my heart. My heart aches for her. Every time I think of her, I smile but my heart hurts like hell because she lives far away. Too far. Sometimes all I can do is lie in bed and hope to fall asleep before I fall apart. Is it wrong to love someone this deeply at such an early age? I have inappropriate thoughts about her...about us. Not, as we are presently but grown up as adults. I'm jealous of my twin brother because he wants to take her from me. I can't let go of what's making me sad because its also the only thing that makes me happy. Her. I cannot lose her, because if I do, I will lose my best friend, my smile, my heart, my soul mate, my everything. If it is a sin, I don't think I want to be forgiven because I truly believe that God has sent her into my life to give me something to fight for, to show me there is love in this world, to give me hope and to bring me joy. All the proof I need in God is in her. She is a gift from heaven." ⚠️WARNING ⚠️ * language *drugs & alcohol * violence *assault & rape *nudity & sex

SophoMORE Love (COMPLETED) (Slowly Editing) by emiliajane

It started in the mere 6th grade in the awkward stage where some boys had cooites and some didn't. James was lucky enough to be cootie-free and totally single. He was just as awkward as the rest of us, but I feel as though he saved his awkwardness and didn't use any of it in the one, and only, class we had together. "Jane! You're daydreaming again!" The teachers would yell at me. "Sorry ma'am." I would sweetly reply. James would look up from whatever he was doing and smile just a little bit, as he knew the daily routine. I daydream, I get yelled at, and he slightly laughs every time. Now, sophomore year. Same crushes. No more cooties. High School. In this dreaded high school, I only have one class with James. One stupid little class. Thanks fate, thanks alot.

The girls have lots in common but there's one thing that draws the line between similarities. Brooke's brother Malakai.

That is, until the police show up and she's dragged away. *** "Dare me to do it Roxi! Dare me to do it!" He shouts as I shake my head. "Kai, please just let go and come talk." I say as tears roll down my cheeks. He shakes his head slowly and breathes heavily. "Please don't cry, I hate when you cry." He says softly. "Then come with me, they wouldn't want this for you." I say as I grab his hand. "I dare you Kai, I dare you to drop it and come with me." He looks down sadly before looking up as tears burn his cheeks. "A dare is a dare." He replies as I nod and hold his hand in mine. "And I dare you to not do it."

Morose ✔️ by Amplect

When you experience the worst thing you could ever imagine, how do you react? - "The water looked so tempting under me as I stood there in the dark. The splashing sounds as the waves hit the stone calmed me down and I took a deep breath. Yes. This was it. I closed my eyes and took one step closer, feeling the curb under the soles of my shoes when I stopped again. Then my heart started pounding when I heard the sound of an angry engine behind me, a screech and a crash. I turned around, gasping, ready to pick my phone up from the ground to call for help- but what met me was a pair of soul-searching golden eyes. In all his twisted glory, he stood in front of me, his precious motorcycle's engine still going as it laid on the ground behind him. His hand reached out, as if asking me to wait, but neither of us said anything. We just stood there." - Olivia was a happy, cheerful girl whose life turned upside down one evening, over a phone call. Her mind turned dark, her thoughts became intrusive, and she became... morose. One night everything seemed to fall apart and she found herself at the river banks when an old friend found her and refused to let her go. That night kickstarted something in her that made her want to change... for him. Helix was a misunderstood man surrounded by dark rumors. People feared him. Everyone stayed away from him.. Except Olivia. Olivia's life is in danger; can she fight her way out of the black hole before it's too late? ⚠️ Mature audiences only TW: includes adult themes such as suicide, sexuality, alcohol and other mental health-related issues - viewer discretion is advised

Rise (Colton Dixon) by pricelesstrashpanda

When she was little, Alexis had it all. Rich parents who she believed in her heart loved her more than anything else, a huge house, a Nanny to take care of her while her parents were at work, and anything else she needed or wanted. And then, one night that she thought would be like all the others tore all of that apart. Now, she and her mother barely make enough to stay alive, their poverty heavily due to her mom's nights in the bar, forgetting about life. Younger siblings come, then leave in abortion, through Alexis's mother's love life, and the one person she'd actually learned to trust again is newly dead by cancer. And her mother has just remarried the person she used to call "Daddy". Her only real friend is the razor that stays in her pocket or on her arm through the thick and the thin of life. Then, while her parents are on their honeymoon after getting remarried, with nothing to do and oblivious of the religion... or relationship... behind the bands she's going to see, Alexis goes to a little concert by the name of Winter Jam, with no real concept of what she's seeing besides a love of Skillet, a bare idea of Britt Nicole, and the songs she listens to by NF on her way there. When a chance meeting with a stranger turns into getting drug to the meet-and-greet line for a not-so-chance meeting with Colton Dixon, Alexis has no idea that it will change her life forever. But with a leading of Holy Spirit on his heart, and a glimpse of Alexis's arms under her sleeves burning in his memory, Colton finds it impossible to stand oblivious to the downward spiral he can see in Alexis's life. But it's a spiral she gave into long ago, and it will take every ounce of strength either of them has in them for Alexis to rise above the world and into the arms of Christ.

My Gay Teacher [COMPLETED] by prisonofpurple

"I push him off me, making him stand on his own. But, Colton pushes me against a wall. 'Jax,' He sighs. Colton leans forward, his lips approaching mine. Soon, Colton kissed me with so much power that my head hit the wall behind me. I was stunned, and pushed him off me. 'Co-Mr. Haynes, we can't do this,' I tell him. He laughs, and leans against me. 'I like it when you call me Mr. Haynes. It's sexy,' he whispers the last part into my ear." ~~~ Jax was spending a casual night at the club, when he met the most handsome man in his life. He felt a spark, an instant connection. Or, maybe that was the beer talking. One week later, Jax was not looking forward to his last year in high school. He thought it couldn't get any worse than his horrible and abusive father, and his mother leaving that summer. But, he got to be reunited with his boyfriend, Rhett. But, Rhett becomes controlling. Abusive. And his former friend Zander will do anything to date him- even blackmail. That was when Jax thought his year couldn't get any worse. That is, until he met his music teacher, Mr. Haynes. The same man he slept with not so long ago. To make matters worse, he discovers he has a half brother named Ash, who is suddenly dumped on him and his father. Will Jax be able to make it through the year with Rhett, Mr. Haynes, Zander, his father, and even Ash seemingly going after him? Or will he collapse, and take his life like his older brother Dash has? *Contains mature content, such as sex, fowl language, LGBTQ+ (some people find it offensive), age difference, and suicide/suicidal thoughts.

Like Nobody Else by TheBlackSorceress

Haunted by the mantra "I'm nobody," I echoed these words in my mind, feeling as though my entire existence revolved around catering to the happiness of others. Despite having friends, a constant undercurrent of self-doubt lingered, as if I were an anchor holding them back. In the shadow of my brother Adam's fame with the renowned band Three Days Grace, I was the family's black sheep, an outcast in our town. My academic prowess and hardworking nature seemed to count for naught, dismissed by my father as failure. Even my past relationship revealed a cruel truth - I was a mere experiment for my ex-boyfriend's infidelity. While my brother Adam basked in the heroics of our town, I felt cast aside, deemed a potential threat to other teens and shunned like a contagious disease. Despite my pleas for help falling on deaf ears for years, my existence seemed insignificant, unnoticed. The reflection in the mirror, one last look before I just contemplated ending it all, reflected a soul weary of pleasing others at the cost of my own emotions. With black lipstick, I scrawled a poignant question on the mirror: "Are you happy?" In the final, desperate act, as I pushed myself to the brink, a rush of relief mingled with the pain. Yet, as I succumbed to the darkness, a familiar voice called my name, disrupting the silence. Awakening to a hospital room, my feet tied to the bed, a blond-haired, blue-eyed figure lay by my side, a silent sentinel. Even in my darkest moment, he defied my wishes, standing vigil over the remnants of a life I sought to escape. The tangled web of emotions unfolds as I grapple with the unexpected second chance, questioning whether the bonds of love and resilience can conquer the shadows that once consumed me.

•Annabelle• by Autumn_Rose8228

My name is Jason, I am a 17 year old senior, and my life ended on March 3rd, 2015, when my best friend Annabelle, the love of my life died. No, my life didn't actually end, but sometimes it feels like it did, and I wish it had. The only thing I do now in life is sit on my porch staring at the empty, lifeless house across the street; wishing I would wake up from this nightmare. All I can do it sit there, and think about what I've done, and what I could've done different, but never will be able to fix it. Sometimes I just want to lay down and forget about life, pretend like I'm not here, and never been. But its torture to close my eyes, and to fall asleep. I see her, I see her dying in my arms, taking her last breath; the touch of her lips and her hand turning cold. If only she hadn't met a monster like me, if only I hadn't fallen in her life. It was that one day, that one evening that changed everything that made me regret my whole life. •'*•.¸(*•.¸♡¸.•*')¸.• *'•, ♡ ♡« ᎪᏌᎢᎻᎾᎡ'Ꮪ NᎾᎢᎬ »♡ ♡ '•.¸.•*(¸.•*'♡'*•.¸)*•.¸.•' Anytime you hear the name Annie they are referring to Annabelle. Also, I know that there is some strange horror movie with this title... It has absolutely no ties to my book. I just like the name XD

Altered by LuellaOpal

Have you ever met someone who alters the course of your life? For good or for bad, they've come in, given and taken, and then- BOOM! Your life was never the same. There's always a change, an altering of reality. When you meet those people, the reality that you've known your whole life is suddenly gone and a new one has taken its place. When those moments happen, there's no going back. You can try to return to the way things were but nothing, and I mean nothing, can take you back to exactly how it was. That's what happened to us. I think that's why we're still trying so desperately to get back to some sort of normalcy. Four years later and we're still on the ground, crawling, in search of the happiness that was lost that June. Summers will never be the same. Midnight walks through my neighborhood will never be the same. Field parties with bonfires and loud music will never be the same. I still don't know why you left and what lead you to the decision you made. What I do know is that we're here. We're alive and we're pushing forward to the future. A future that you're not a part of. But in some ways, I'm glad you're not a part of it. I just wish it wasn't like this. *** TRIGGER WARNING*** SA, abuse, suicide, substance abuse, and mental illness. This is a complete story that is much like life; fast, full of surprises, and not always how we want it to be. This has been a project of mine for over three years. It was self-published on Amazon, but after some issues in publication, I decided to just upload it on here. I hope you fall in love with these characters like I have. The friends in this story are trying to make names for themselves, figure out who they are, who they can trust, how to love, and how to separate themselves from a restrictive community. As in any coming of age story, they will experience growing pains... but will they survive them before its too late? PLEASE READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS.

Juliet saved the Bad Boy (COMPLETED) by esemdeaye

"Fuck my life.." I grunted. I can't believe my last words were going to be useless. I half expected it to be "tell mom I love her" or some sappy shit like that. But turns out my last words we're utterly useless. How I got here? Trust me I don't know, I was sipping the liquid from my red cup the first second and the next thing I know is I'm running towards him. ••• Well, Juliet Evans have always hated the football team due to the trauma they inflicted on her brother- they outed him from his closet, if you know what I mean. Ever since that day they have been harassing him physically and emotionally. As his twin, she took it upon herself to protect him- if she had to swing a fist, you bet your asses she would! Here enter Luke Rivers, he was a part of the "No Brainy Bunch" as Juliet liked to call the Football team. Sure he stayed in the sidelines and watched his friends do horrible things- that's what Juliet hates the most, the bystanders who never bat an eyelash when it comes to abuse. He was automatically an asshole by association. Because after-all, Birds of the same feather flocks together right?
