This is not a dating story. It's not a love story. It's not a breakup story. It's just a story of a girl who's parents don't love her enough.
Taegan is a normal 15 year old girl. She has long, dark brown hair and green eyes. She is just like you and me. But one day, in the middle of the Summer term at school, a terrible thing happens to Taegan.
Her parents could help her. They could fix her. They could keep her alive. But they have the holiday of a lifetime planned. They are going to Australia that summer, with Taegan's two older sisters, and supposedly Taegan. And her parents do not want to sacrifice their holiday. So they have to choose. Keeping their youngest child alive, or going on the trip of a lifetime, to the Great Barrier Reef.
The decision Taegan's parents make change her whole life.
It also shows her that she has the world's greatest friends.
Read on to follow Taegan on a journey that will define who she is, while trying her patience and love and opening her eyes to the real world.
A/N: I don't know why I named the book what I did. If anyone has any better ideas, please comment them, and if I like one, I'll change the title.

I Fell in Love with a Bad Boy
CRINGE WARNING! First book I ever wrote on here!! -- "Sometimes the person who you are willing to take a bullet for is the person behind the gun." I stood peering over the cold lifeless body that lay before my eyes. I had always thought of death the enemy, but right now, I blessed it upon the person who is now at peace. Sometimes you don't need to be the smartest, or the fastest, but you do need to be wisest. They say the blood runs deeper than water, and I believe it, because even though the people that we love can turn on us and begin to hate us, they are only human, meaning that soon they will begin to see how short life really is and how it is not to be wasted. People who seem perfect and they look like they have no floors'; they are the people who are suffering, like I was. But I found my savior in the most uncommon place. He was able to look through my mask, he saw the cracks, and tried to fix the broken girl that hid away deep inside the girl who only wanted to be seen as 'fine'. I slowly began to find comfort and safety in him, and I did the same to him. We were two broken people becoming whole. Someone once said when you pass, if you can count your true friends on one hand you are beyond lucky, and I even though I did not like the person that lay before me, I know that he once had true friends, including me. I'm a 17 year old girl who has suffered more than any other, beginning to believe that 'Hope' was just another word the people throw around. Until I fell in love with a badboy.

She Never Knew...
"Mom, not today. I don't even know why you're making me go. Today is dads..." I didn't want to finish and remind her of dads' birthday. My phone kept ringing, I already knew it was Dakota, he's my childhood best friend. "Just take your brother to school, please!" She exclaimed. She looked miserable. I shut the door and smelled the freshly cut grass. I smiled to myself knowing it was my dad's favorite smell. "Alexandria! We're gonna be late, can you stop daydreaming and get in the car." My brother, Cory hollered. He hates to think about dad. He just forgets. I Jeep Wrangler and I started the car, Cory rolled down his windows. "Are we sitting together at lunch today?" Cory asked me. "No I want you to sit with your friends, I'll be alright alone." I told him. "Alright Alex, believe it or not I actually love you. And I love you enough to tell you, you need friends." He admitted. "Have fun. Love you too, Corky." I laughed at the name I gave him when I was a kid. He smiled at me then left into the school. I went on to go to a flower shop. I stopped and got out. I walked in the shop. "Ally, do you have my order, the cars running?" I asked Ally. "Yeah Alex, I have it. Your order for 1 dozen Chocolate Cosmos, 2 dozen Daises, and 1 dozen yellow Roses." "Thanks Ally." I grabbed all the flowers then ran back to the car. I drove to the grave. I threw all my stuff into my bag. I grabbed the flowers and I pulled my bag over my shoulder and got out. I looked around and saw people young and old coming here to see their loved ones. I saw my families graves. Almost my whole family will be buried here. My grandpa always said it was sacred. I put the Cosmos on my dad's grave. The Daises on my grandmothers and the Roses on my grandpas. I talked and talked to them till I pull my pack of cigarettes out of my bag along with a lighter. I put the cancer stick in my mouth and lit it. "You guys are probably really mad right now. Blame peer pressure in 9th grade."Zakończone
Behind the clouds
Book 1 (out of 3) It took ten years for her to run away. Not because of a strategic plan or masterful deception. No, it only happened because of some tragic 'luck'. Luck created by hundreds sacrificed for a single girl. Was it worth it? She knew the answer to that question but had continued to run just as they told her, continued to hope, continued to survive. Even if it was only for one more minute of life. One more minute for their story to be told. Through chance it only takes a second for a minute to turn into years and a single encounter to change a life around. So with an extra second given, she survived. But the price of survival is to remember, and for those sacrificed it was a burden she has to remember and never forget. But a cracked dam can only hold out until it is repaired or collapses.
