butterflywishes death dying family grief illness love newadult secrets youngadult

At seventeen, Jade wants the same as every other girl her age. To finish school. To go out with friends. A different hair color. That new nail polish she saw at the mall. First dates. Second dates. More dates. Sharing perfect, mind-blowing kisses with “the one”. And if it’s not too much to ask, Jade also wants her parents to stay together. She wants her overprotective brother to back off and mind his own business. Even more, she wants people to stop giving her pity looks. But, above all else, Jade wants to live.

Caleb is nineteen and doesn’t want to have to work two jobs. He doesn’t want to have to face his grieving dad every single day. He doesn’t want to have to listen to the college adventures of his friends. He doesn’t want to have to look after his two sisters. Caleb doesn’t want “to have to do” anything. And just when he thinks life doesn’t have anything good in store for him, he meets Jade…All Rights Reserved

Tomorrow's Blues by fadedxfires

~"You don't- you don't need me." I stared in shock. This was the first shred of emotion he'd shown since he started avoiding me, and I had no idea how to respond. What was I supposed to say to something like that? So I let myself be honest, and I told him exactly how I felt. "But I do." I almost choked on my words. "I do need you. I can't talk to anybody else. I can't eat. I can't sleep. And I know you know what that's like."~ Liliana is now an orphan. Just 17 years old, she lost her parents in a boating accident and now she must live with her best friend, her best friend's parents and her best friend's brother, Joseph. She struggles through her grief as well as dealing with the mysterious but obnoxious Joseph, and it soon comes to light that he isn't the only one around her keeping secrets. Living under the same roof, tensions arise, and Liliana begins to discover that a perfect family may not be so perfect after all."

The two tried to dampen the flames of their burgeoning attraction for each other but not before they got caught and were the talk of the town for months. After the fall out, Maddie moved away to try and start her life over and not be known as the girl who got caught doing it with her 'brother' at prom.

But no matter how hard he tries to reach out and find her, he can't. She won't let him. He let her down and gave up on them when she needed him most. And she's not ready to forgive and forget. But then Maddie's dad passes and she's forced to come home for his funeral. It should be a quick visit. She intends to make it one. But Jacob has other plans. He let his girl slip through his fingers once and he won't let that happen again. So now he has to convince her to give him one more chance. After all, they're not related to each other anymore.
