I Might Need You by KHstories2

I swipe away a piece of hair falling in front of her face. I watch as she sleeps softly. She is all that matters to me now. She is every beat. Every breath. Every dream. Everything. You normally have those stories, where the good girl falls in love with the bad boy. He hurts her and breaks her heart multiple times. This is the complete opposite. Nova Dixon isn't someone to be friends with, and definitely not one to fall in love with. Dustin Clark breaks those rules, and decides that Nova is his new drug, his addiction. No matter how hard he tries to stay away, it isn't possible. He wants her. Needs her even. But she cant give him what he wants. **I know there seems to be a lot of chapters, but most of my chapters are 1000-2000 words. Only a few of them have more** 200,000-220,000 word count

Bakers Touch by KeiJuneArt

Morgan is going back to school, again. It's time to get cooking, and Morgan is on her third attempt at getting her life together. She's determined to win the cooking competition, leave her mother's house of sin, and take her brother, Peter, with her. Morgan is fed up with supplementing her mother's habits and being taken advantage of. All she wants now is to fight for the future she deserves. Confronting her mistakes, and accepting the things, and people, she cannot change is a harrowing thing to do when you're also tasked with caring for someone who can't defend themselves. With the stakes of a better life and a chance at freedom so close at hand, she does not have time to fool around or get distracted yet, there is something about Nikolai that makes her feel safe enough to talk about her problems and surprisingly, he reciprocates that sentiment by discussing his troubles. Having someone by her side that she can relate to and be open with, doesn't seem so bad. But what if that someone is revealed to be a Professor!? Just wait until Rebecca hears about this, surely trouble is bound to happen.

HOTHEAD by YA_fanatic24

Growing up in a toxic environment, sixteen-year-old Jay Foster has always had psychological problems, coupled with a quick temper. But one night something happens which finally pushes him over the edge, and as a result, he leaves his house the next morning with two things: his mother's gun and a plan. Living with a neglectful and drug addicted mother wasn't easy for Jay, and it definitely didn't help that his father abandoned the family while he was still a child. He harbored a hatred toward his parents, and that hatred extended to almost everyone and everything around him, producing a very troubled and damaged young kid. As Jay enters high school, he becomes very intrigued with one of his classmates. Kind of obsessed, actually. Her name: Mikayla Keeler. Mikayla is very unique, and like Jay, she doesn't seem to fit in with her contemporaries. Instead, the two of them keep each other company, and their friendship very quickly escalates into a romantic and intimate relationship. Despite having Mikayla, Jay's troubles continue to burden him. He and Mikayla are fighting habitually, his home life is still unbearable, and his time at school is hardly any better, made worse by a bully named Calvin. Their mutual dislike of one another leads to a lot of hostility, routinely leading to Jay being sent to his school's principal. One confrontation in particular goes much too far, resulting in Jay's expulsion from school. With everything seemingly piling up, Jay is very close to his breaking point, and late one night he is blindsided by the unthinkable, pushing him much too far and effectively planting in his mind a cruel and horrific plan for revenge.
