    Everyone at school knows Andrew Jennings. Missing an arm. Openly gay. But when he meets star athlete Ryan Sullivan in therapy, can friendship lead to more? ***** When Andrew 'Jacky' Jennings ends up in therapy after an English assignment gone wrong, he doesn't expect to find his high school's star athlete, Ryan Sullivan, sitting in the same waiting room. After all, he and Ryan couldn't be more different: football captain, future valedictorian, and all-around nice guy, Ryan is the school's golden boy, while Andrew is known for his permanent snarl, being openly gay, and losing his left arm (along with his father and sister) in a car accident. But when Andrew learns they actually have a lot in common, he's surprised to see past the enigma that is Ryan Sullivan and his seemingly perfect life. And as the two boys begin to connect over their shared grief, depression, and teenage angst, they might just discover a little pocket of happiness for themselves -- if they're willing to fight for it.

    WATTPAD BOOKS EDITION Everest is the most popular boy in school. He's handsome, wealthy, and captain of the football team-he has the world at his fingertips, but he's desperately unhappy. And when those feelings become too much to bear, he tries to take his own life. On the surface, Beverly's different from Everest in every possible way. She's quiet, shy, hard working, and keeps to herself on campus, focusing on her schoolwork and her part-time job, distracting herself from her less-than-perfect upbringing. When Everest returns to school after his attempt, he's in more pain than ever. Discarded by his friends, he draws little empathy and too much attention from those who surround him. But when Beverly and Everest meet unexpectedly in a dusty corner of the old library, they discover together just how rich life can be when given the freedom to just be yourself.

    What if she had committed an unforgivable sin? Could she ever meet his eyes again when he looked at her? "Hate me, beat me, rape me... but please, don't do this. Your silence is killing me. W-why don't you just end it, Jungkook? I'm a sinner." Tears fell freely from her eyes, unbidden and ignored. She wished desperately to turn back time, to stop herself from making that terrible mistake. But deep down, she knew-there was no hope left. He only smirked at her helplessness. It was a scene that pleased his eyes, but not his heart. The price he had paid was far greater than the crime she had committed. Fate had bound them together, but did she truly believe he would let her live freely after what she'd done? "You're going to pay the price," he said coldly. "You'll face a side of me I never showed you. "You don't deserve death you deserve slow poison Mrs. Jeon." "Guilt should have made you see that this is your punishment. This isn't about revenge-revenge isn't my style. Domination is what defines me, and I spare no one." Jungkook x Y/N A revenge story Cover by : @HJ_Fiction #InkspireLegendsAwards

    Fun with the Forsaken killer gang. A whole load of drama, silly topics, and mental issues. Please don't mind if my first few chapters suck - the later ones are better. Let the chaos begin. There is a liiiiiittle bit of 1xNoli in here. Forsaken - essentially the land of hell, the afterlife, whatever feels most appropriate to you. Survivors brutally murdered day after day, forced to repeat the same acts of heroic violence or simply stand on the sidelines watching their dear friends get ripped apart. Killers slashing, decapitating, and all things gory, no mercy on display for anyone trailing unfortunately in their path. A forever bloodthirsty hunt. Pity is rained down upon survivors of this place, often portrayed as the only ones suffering, both mentally and physically. Yet, has anyone ever given a second thought to the ones doing the killing? Seemingly not. My interpretation of the killer gang, not including unreleased individuals or skins often. In a way, this is a 'slice of life' type fan-fiction. I'm kind of taking requests. Some silly chapters, some not so silly. Be prepared. TAGS - IGNORE THIS!

Apparently, I have five older brothers... and thirteen years ago, I was switched at birth with a girl named Chloe. Everyone expects me to be grateful. To embrace my "real" family. To forgive the people who tore mine apart. They couldn't be more wrong. They may have taken in the siblings I grew up with, but they're also the reason my parents are sitting behind bars. As far as I'm concerned, they're nothing more than strangers pretending to care. So while they're busy trying to welcome me home, I'm busy uncovering every secret they're hiding. And once I know all of them- I'll make sure this family falls apart the same way mine did. - For thirteen years, I thought I was the youngest of six. Then one DNA test changed everything. Turns out I was switched at birth with a girl named Sophia. The brothers I've loved my entire life finally have the sister they've always wanted... and I'm left wondering if there was ever a place for me at all. As if that wasn't enough, I suddenly have three biological siblings I've never met. Everyone expects this to be some happy family reunion. Instead, it feels like I'm losing one family... while being thrown into another that doesn't want me either. I don't know where I belong anymore. All I know is that I refuse to lose the people I call family-even if they no longer see me as one of them.

There are no signs of bullying, harassment, or any manner of negativity. This is the last kind of place the mane 6 would think the Cutie Map demands all six to go to. But there is something underneath the surface, and it is something deeply tragic.
