How far would you go for the person who feels like home?

Samantha Pearson never expected to fall for someone like Nate Dawson-smart, gorgeous, and way out of her league. Too bad he's taken.

As the new girl in town and a freshman in law school, Sam is just trying to survive the chaos of legal studies. But then there's Nate, her brilliant, charming, "totally off-limits" study-buddy. He's dating Ashley Reynolds, the queen bee of their law school, and Sam knows better than to catch feelings.

But sometimes, the heart doesn't listen. What starts as an innocent friendship soon turns into deep conversations, stolen glances, and moments that felt like "more".

As they chase their dreams of becoming lawyers, real life comes crashing in... can they fight for each other when everything, including their own choices, seems to pull them apart?

Or is some love just not meant to stand the test of time?

Beneath the veil of time, memories linger—soft whispers in the dark, footsteps on forgotten paths, shadows that never fade. Where the Past Still Walksis a haunting anthology of poetry, exploring the ghosts of yesterday, the weight of regret, and the echoes of love that refuse to be silenced. Each verse is a doorway to the past, where longing, sorrow, and unspoken goodbyes intertwine with the supernatural. Step carefully, for here, the past is never truly gone—it only waits.

Felix Pagonis is the sole survivor of the world. Or rather, his world. Rescued from entering the afterlife by a deity who calls himself Janus, Felix must now embark on a journey to find two artefacts lost in the multiverse.

In exchange for his help, Janus promises to 'reset' his universe so that every bad thing that has ever happened will be erased.

Can Felix trust Janus? Will he succeed in his mission? Or will the dangers across the multiverse prove too much for him to handle?

Crimson Vowsexpresses heartbreak, betrayal, and lost love. It reflects on a past relationship, confronting the pain of deception and shattered promises. With vivid imagery and passionate language, the poem explores the complexities of love, trust, and the consequences of betrayal.

The Things You Keep From Your Parentsis about 17-year-old Zain, who’s always been a good kid. He gets good grades, never gets in trouble, and tries to make his parents proud. But when he meets Theo, a new kid at school, everything starts to change. Theo is wild, fun, and different from anyone Zain has ever known. He gets Zain into all sorts of trouble, like sneaking out of class and lying to his parents.

Then, Zain starts feeling something for Theo—something that he doesn’t want anyone to know about. One night, they share their first kiss, and Zain’s world flips upside down. He’s torn between liking Theo and keeping up his “perfect” life. Soon, he’s skipping school, lying about where he’s been, and dealing with some mean comments from people who are starting to notice the changes in him. The more he keeps hiding, the harder it gets.

The Things You Keep From Your Parentsis all about secrets, love, and trying to figure out who you really are, even when it feels like you can’t tell anyone. It’s about doing things you never thought you would, and realizing that sometimes, being honest is the hardest thing of all.

Cole Anderson, a senior in highschool, who gets a lot of notes left in his locker from his secret admirers, received an entire book of someone writing 12 things they loved about him.

He would have ignored it like all the others, but he realizes it was from someone he also feels the same way about.

A collection of short pieces.

"We are Best friends, right? "

"Yes of course"

"So be honest with me, who do you like? "

"No one. I love someone"

"Ohh, she must be very lucky"

"Definitely, l loved her since the day we met"

"Really, since we are best friends I wanna meet her please call her"

"Ohh! okay"

*he takes his phone out and calls the girl*

"Best, hold on. I think I'm receiving a call"

*She answers her phone*

"Hello"

"I love you"

This is a letter to a love one that I can't seem to say to them directly. Its about regret, shame and generally just wanting to say my last message.

It's also going to have some entry's of emotions. I will also be putting in some bits of what I'm going through at the time.

This is a Wattpad contest (sounds of winter) entry, and I just thought that I could put this up here so more people could read it and see it.

English is not my first language, so prepare for some mistakes. and all right reserved to the artist of the songs and the song writers, but of course, the story belongs to me XD

Anyway, this is a book where I'll put short stories or oneshots of stories I wrote that are related to some songs or lyrics.

Hope you all enjoys

thx

To Rebbeca,

Hey. It’s me. Hannah. Two years ago, if you told me that we ended up like this, I would’ve laughed......

--------------------------------------

Rebbeca, my ex girlfriend and the love of my life.

How am I supposed to go on without you?

How do I move on from our relationship?

I want to tell you so many things.

But you'd never listen.

Ten things. Ten things I want to say that I'm too scared to.

And the one thing I will.

Just the memories of a girl who should be a better person than she is.
