anxiety bestfriend biracial bisexual completed depression fiction friends-to-lovers graduation highschool interracial lgbt love romance senior-year teen teenagers young-love

~Laina~
      She is a teenage girl trying to find her place in the world, just like everyone else. It is senior year and to be honest she never thought she would even make it to this point. Her long-time best friend seems to be leaving her behind and she has no idea how to deal with disintegration of the relationship she has used to define herself for the past ten years of her life. She is scared, she is anxious, she is depressed, and she is desperately trying to navigate a universally hard time.  
      
      ~Brendon~
      He is just living life the way he wants to. For years, he has known Alaina and they've never been much outside of acquaintances. Until one day, he takes a chance and it seems like everything clicks right into place. They mesh so incredibly well with each other, so it only seems natural when they become close friends. And then, somewhere between the little windows into herself she lets him peak through and the reassurances, he fell in love. He is a safe place for her to understand and be herself, and all he wants is her happiness.
      
      They both know that when they graduate they'll be thrust into "the real world." They both know that high school isn't forever. They both know that they'll live drastically different lives. They most definitely know better than to let this go too far. Or at least they should.All Rights Reserved

Infinity x The World by LunaLightfoot

Warning: this book's focus is drawn to a character who hints themes of depression and self-harm. The idea of the story is to present the experience of learning to understand and comfort someone through these struggles. So while these themes are contained within a comical styled story, they are still present so please be mindful of that before you read on. You. You're just a normal girl. A normal girl with a normal life... until you meet the boy with blue hair... Name: unknown Age: unknown Human? Unknown How can someone live a life without anyone knowing of their existence? You don't know. But you want too. Determination fills you with a desire to seek more about this boy. There's just something about him that makes you want to know more. He meets your eye. Is a name really too much to ask? He refuses to give you one. If you keep investigating, you'll get hurt. You'll be killed. You'll regret it. It's not a warning. It's simply the truth. You've been noticing strange things going on. He's not in any records. A shotgun fire?! He has wounds that heal all too quickly. How can a boy get shot and heal by the very next day? You want to know, don't you? Then simply allow your mind to go wondering into this book and discover the secrets behind the boy who no one knows. (This book is a representation of my experiences with dating someone with depression in high school. I wrote it while we were dating, subconsciously writing him into the character Infinity. I will say that I intend to rewrite this at some point to send a better message, as I feel some of the actions in this book are unhealthy reactions to depression, that I have a much better perspective of now) [I'm also working on a VN based on this story.... If my studies would stop getting in the way]

The Chemistry of Maybe by YourDamningAuthor

Farra is just your average high school student if your average student blurts out inappropriate jokes, drifts through life with a half-detached smirk, and keeps everyone at arm's length just far enough to stay safe. She doesn't believe in soulmates, real emotions, or whatever people mean when they say "connection." But even someone like her ends up with a found family of chaotic, loyal, deeply flawed friends who keep her from drifting too far. Then comes Asta. Mysterious, quiet, unfairly attractive Asta. The kind of guy Farra should definitely avoid but absolutely cannot stop thinking about. When her attempts to figure him out turn into full-on strategies (and minor stalking), Farra ropes in her "friend" Alif to help. But when feelings shift, secrets pile up, and nothing goes as planned, she finds herself stuck between the version of herself she performs and the person she might actually want to be. High school was already messy. Add in some unrequited crushes, group chats full of bad advice, and the slow, painful realization that "maybe" isn't enough, and things get a lot more complicated. A sharp, funny, and painfully honest story about friendship, feeling too much, and figuring out who the hell you are, one awkward conversation at a time.

She meets Blake and her life twists 360 degrees around like a roller coaster running fast paced outside its rails. Oh and I should mention, Blake's a very complicated woman. The rest is yours to find out before it becomes history.
