    ❛𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒔𝒄𝒂𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝒐𝒇 𝒎𝒆?❜ he asked, voice low like it wasn't meant for nobody but her. 𝒛𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐡 didn't speak, just tilted her head a little and stepped in close. she traced one of the tattoos on his arm, finger light like a whisper...when she finally looked up, slow and lazy, doe eyes glinting beneath her lashes--she kissed the corner of his mouth. once, twice--then pulled back. 𝒐𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐢 smirked. ❛𝒅𝒊𝒅𝒏'𝒕 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒌 𝒔𝒐.❜ ▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄ She doesn't speak-not out loud, not anymore. Zariah Hart's been quiet since the night she lost everything, and moving to The Palisade at Skyview Apartments was supposed to give her a fresh start. No expectations. No questions. Just peace. But peace gets complicated when a man like Omarion Jordan starts showing up in it. He's nothing like she expected. Tatted, quiet, with eyes that read people better than they speak. A mechanic with a past he doesn't explain-and a presence that says more than his mouth does. He doesn't ask about her silence. She doesn't flinch at his reputation. Somehow, that's enough. What starts as simple glances turns into shared space. What feels like comfort turns to something neither of them planned for. But Atlanta doesn't forget what people try to bury. And sometimes, the loudest truth is the one you never say out loud. 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐄𝐃: 𝐉𝐔𝐍𝐄 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓

    I hate secrets. And I hate drama. But somehow, I stumbled into relationships with two girls, each one hiding something big from me. Bree is beautiful and fit. Captain of the cheerleaders and homecoming queen. She's every guy's dream, every guy but me that is. I didn't really intend to date her, but things just have a way of taking on a life of their own. Then there's Peyton, who drives me crazy. She's a teammate, for God's sake. A football player with a shaved head who disguised herself as a dude to make varsity. She's tough and independent, a smartass with a big chip on her shoulder. But she's more than that--her beauty is wild and untamed. She glows electric, and I'm drawn to that electricity like lightning to a rod. So, I find myself in a bit of a bind--a love triangle with a cheerleader and a football player--and I have a feeling that their secrets just might alter the course of my life forever.

    Things We Don't Talk About by Tale_pirate "Sometimes the loudest stories are the ones left unsaid." This is my first story on Wattpad-so welcome, and also...brace yourself. It's not your usual mafia king-meets-celeb-crush cliché. There's no forced marriage, no secret billionaire, no one falling in love in three chapters. Instead, this is a story about four teens trying to survive high school, quiet grief, and loud friendships. There's sarcasm. There's awkwardness. There's humour in the middle of heavy things. And sometimes, there's just...silence. If you're looking for something real, a little honest, slightly weird, and emotionally unhinged in a good way, you might just like it here. ⚠️ Warning: Contains granola bar diplomacy, glitter mugs, emotional damage (the slow kind), and accidental healing. Oh-and sarcasm. Lots of it

    I wrote this for the days when losing a parent still hurts in ways I don't know how to explain. This book is me talking about what it's like to grow up with an absence, to carry grief quietly, and to learn how to live when someone important is no longer there. These poems are not meant to sound perfect. They are written like conversations I'm sitting with you, telling you what I've learned about loss, about becoming strong too early, and about the moments when I just want to stop being brave. Sometimes I Grow Up, Sometimes I Refused Not To is for anyone who had to figure things out alone, who misses someone deeply, and who is still trying to heal without rushing themselves.
