Iris Donnelly, at the golden age of seventeen, hasn't opened her heart up to anybody. Her philosophy is to get through her last year of high school with straight-A's and her head down. She believes that her heart belongs in her ribcage, not in anybody else's hands. Not only is the pressure of school on her though, but she has severe anxiety after her mother's death.So what happens when she bumps into Pierce Wright, also known as the school's "bad boy"? What happens when she's supposed to be his tutor? What happens when they start to tear down their masks and really get to know all parts of each other - both the good and the bad?And when happens when they become next door neighbors?✾DISCLAIMER: While the story has been 100% written by me, this was made to be cliché (strangely enough, it was my attempt to write a good cliché). The pictures weren't taken by me for the face claims!WARNING: This story also contains some heavy topics like anxiety, death, and self-harm. Cursing has been censored with astericks but it does have mature content (nothing sexual though).…

I can't pretend I have no clue what you thought. I can't pretend it doesn't make me furious when people make jokes about it, and I can't pretend like nothing happened the way they want me to.I know the way you felt.I've felt the same feeling of hopelessness that just chains you to weights and holds you captive underwater. You'll be held to the gritty ocean floor of your mind forever, until you breathe in and let the disgusting thoughts fill your lungs with a sharp dagger.I know what it feels like to stand there with a tied rope in your hand, wondering if today's the day. I know what it feels like to stand on a bridge, just seconds away from jumping. I know what it feels like to stand there with a bottle of pills, wondering why you're never good enough.Other people may not be familiar with this feeling, but I know.I know it all too well.~~~WARNING: This story deals with sensitive topics like suicide and mental illness in a pretty blunt way. DISCLAIMER: Any photos I use weren't taken by me and all credit goes to the original owners.~~~2nd place winner in the Short Story genre of the 2018 Autumn Awards!2nd place winner in the Short Story genre of the 2018 Typer's Awards!…

• TW - a short story about self-harm •Right now, Posie Gray pretended that this was recovery. Right now, sleeping was the only thing that she did with her free time. And every time that she skipped a meal, she would call it "self care" because merely eating was so taxing. She pretended that she still enjoyed to paint, that she still enjoyed all the same things that she used to. She thought that she would pretend that the familiar bleeding lines never happened.And while she rarely understood what to do or what steps to take, when she succumbed to the monster under her bed, she knew exactly where to go and exactly what to do.…
