"They say you regret the things you didn't do more than the things you did do in life," I whisper, glad that I can still form a coherent sentence with him so abnormally close to me.

I would barely have to extend my arm halfway to touch him. I become painstakingly aware of every movement, watching his dark eyelashes flutter with every blink.

He moves impossibly closer, eyes still concentrated on my lips. I swallow anxiously, forgetting how to breathe. 

"Well thank fuck for that," he mutters, before a hand against the back of my neck pulls us together.

---

Never put effort into anything, I told myself. It will never help you. It will never beat those around you. You will never be competition for those geniuses. You will never be wanted by anyone in your life because there's always someone better than you. You will never amount to anything. You will never be good enough.

I will never be good enough.

And then I met Slater.

|| MATURE THEMES || "And you say "Did you even notice, that I, began, to bleed?" And it all goes out of focus, and I hear you start to scream. Help me. Help me. Why won't you help me?" - flatsound - "Well I was at a friend's, and that's the only answer your going to get, so quit asking!" I snap, and he just sits there in disbelief. I not only hated when people asked questions they already know the answer to, because it seems like they're trying to be smug about it, or have some egotistical strong belief that they know everything. "Help me, help you. I don't fully understand where you're coming from, but I'd like to get your perspective on things. We're going to be around each other for awhile so just open up a bit. I know your irritated because you don't want help, but nothings wrong with at least trying to explain what's happening." I was a bit taken back with his response, it was like my heart yearned to pour out all my secrets, and the deepest darkest thoughts that I keep hidden was threatening to spill out from my mouth. "We've known each other for what? Three days? And you think we have some unbreakable bond?" My body screamed to stop, but it was like first instinct. To push the people who love me, away, and people who want to get to know me better, away. Though I don't exactly enjoy this part of myself, but I know in my heart, that if I get involved with him, it'd only break my heart. ✙✙✙✙ STARTED : September 26, 2023 FINISHED : October 1, 2023 ✰✰✰✰ #6 johnnieguilbert 09/30/23 #174 depressing 09/30/23 #42 sad romance 09/30/23 #62 readatyourownrisk 09/30/23 #25 youtuberxreader 09/30/23 #5 probation 09/30/23 #4 housearrest 09/30/23

*TW* Contains topics and scenes of sexual assault, self-harm, abuse.* "You know you loved every second of it," I can feel the tears welling up as well as the anger building up within me. I stare at him for a while before I have to turn away from his hungry gaze. "Look I just came here to tell you that I forgive you for what you did back in Cali and I'll take you back," "You forgive me?" I yell. "I did nothing to you. You raped me! You fucking raped me! You have no right to come here and tell me that. You. Forgive. Me. You traumatized me. What you did to me tore me up inside and was eating away at me until I tried to kill myself. And when I told people they didn't believe me. I had to listen to so many people talk about how great a guy you were and how I clearly just regretted sleeping with you. You are a monster. You made me hate myself for something that was never my fault. You have caused me so much pain and suffering," I pause to take a deep breath. "So you don't get to come here to my school and tell me you forgive me. You don't get to make me feel bad about coming forward. The only thing I regret is ever thinking you were a good person." _____________________________________________ Logan Young is a 16-year-old girl about to start her senior year in a brand new town.

"Aana..." i flinched listening his voice. "Yess", I replied nervously and he took a step forward and held my hand in his. I froze on my place. "I won't harm you!" He said and i took my hand back nodding. __________________ I always wanted to marry Derek Vincent. Marrying him was my dream. He was my everything. My best friend, my crush, my childhood love and soon to be husband. Beside him there was his elder brother totally opposite of Derek. He was my tutor. Although I've always loved Derek, i don't know how his elder brother had the power to froze me on my place. Everytime my heart races when I see him. He makes me nervous just by looking at me. He's strict as a teacher. He's disciplined as a lion. He's perfect as his father. But the problem was I don't like perfect things. I've always believed that anything that shows to be too perfect is never the perfect one. Some people are too good to be true. That's what I feel whenever we cross paths. Everytime i gulp my saliva. Everytime i bite my lips. Everytime my heart skips a beat . Everytime i look at his eyes i feel like he has so much to ask and so much to tell but he never talked to me. Never ever. We only communicated in tution hours and exchange only a word or two. I never saw him looking at me but still i feel like his eyes are pinned on me.That's how he makes me feel only by standing infront of me. Keeping all this confused emotions aside i agreed to get married.To Derek. And that day everything changed cause Derek didn't showed up at the venue. I was standing there with a broken heart and tears. And that day i had to take a decision. A decision that can change my whole life. For good? For bad? I don't know. © All rights reserved.

"I can't believe you, I can't believe you would do all of this to win? Did it mean nothing to you? Did I mean nothing to you?" His voice was shaking, his hands were shaking and his legs felt like clouds, whether it was because of anger or sadness it didn't matter because he refused to break down in front of her; not after what she had done. "This was never how I intended it to unfold... I swear, I-, it was just a stupid trap at first, I never thought it would work. I never thought you would fall for me" She took a step toward him, reaching to take his hand, the hand that was currently fiddling with the charm she had given him, but as she did he took a step back "But you did, and I didn't know what to do because I- I fell for you too and- God this was never meant to happen" The girl buried her face in her hands rubbing her eyes and hoping that when she'd look up everything would go back to how it was before he found out "I don't want excuses Torres. You could've put an end to this, you could've stopped it all the moment I told you I loved you" No, he couldn't cry, he couldn't show her he was weak, his voice cracked but he wouldn't have any other slip ups even if it felt like daggers were stabbing him repeatedly and without mercy each time he looked into her eyes "I despise you"
