"Why can't you see that I'm trying! I'm trying so HARD so that you can trust me." 

His arms pinned my body against the wall.

"I never asked for you to want me or to care. I dont want to trust you!" I screamed

Hurt danced in his eyes. "But why?"

"Because the moment I let myself trust anyone not to leave, is the moment that I will be broken all over again."

I pushed past him and with that, I knew everything was over. I knew I had broken him just enough so that I could protect him. So that I couldn't damage him. I loved him too much to allow him to let me break him too.

Mia Henderson has sky high walls and Kai, from the moment he meets her, seeks to break them down, captivated in her story.

Who will break who?

#15 Dark Past on 11&12th April 2021 #42 friendship on 11th May 2021 *Monologue* "You ask to dance with me because you're jealous, seeing me dancing with Tessa" I remain silent. "Tell me" He breathed out. "Wh-what?" I stuttered, staring into his eyes. Ugh, this man didn't know how much his little actions are affecting me. "N-No, I just wanted to have a dance with you. I do owe you one" "Tell me that you're jealous" He leaned down. Our face were inches gap. His chest rising and his eyes looking down at mine. His lips were about to touch mine. I knew what he wanted and I wanted it as well. My heart thumped frantically against my chest. "Teo, what if I'm really jealous? Wh-" He pressed his lips against mine before I could finish. As soon as his lips met mine I felt a shock flow through my whole body. My heart pounded in my chest and my knees got weaker.

Everyone's going through something-but not everyone wears it like Hali does. She's 17, stuck in a body she's always trying to shrink, surrounded by people who are just as lost as she is. Her days are filled with pills she doesn't remember taking, mirrors she can't stand to look at, and a friend group that survives off drugs, trauma, and sarcasm. Drew's been around since forever and sees too much. Rico jokes through the pain. Alex barely speaks but somehow understands. And Hali? She's trying to pretend she's fine while quietly falling apart. This story isn't about healing. Not yet. It's about what it feels like to break in silence- and what happens when someone finally notices.
Breaking Bloom by LinelR23
10 parts Ongoing Mature
One thing I learned about running-eventually, it turns into just living. I didn't mean to fall for two boys at once, and I definitely didn't plan on needing them to survive. After one night turned my world upside down, I had no choice but to lean on the people I trusted most-two boys with tattoos, secrets, and the kind of loyalty that feels like home and heartbreak all at once. Codey and Aaron are both dangerous in their own way, but somehow they became my safe place. Now, we're living under the same roof, tangled in a mess of past wounds, stolen moments, and quiet promises we're all too scared to say out loud. But when my past won't stay buried-and my choices threaten the fragile balance we've built-I'll have to stop running and finally face what I've become... and who I really want beside me when it all falls apart. Breaking Bloom is a coming-of-age romance about healing, found family, complicated love, and choosing yourself-no matter how many scars you carry. ⚠️ Content Warning: This story contains themes of trauma, sexual assault, emotional dependency, and mature situations that may be triggering for some readers. Discretion is advised.
