*UNDER EDITING* "I'm punching him in the face the next time I see him." "No, you're not." "What if I just break his nose a little?" "Izzy, you'd end up breaking your hand instead of his face." "Shut up JJ." Meet Isabelle Rutledge, John B's not so little sister. She's only two minutes younger but her brother still treats her like a little kid. That hasn't stopped her from becoming part of the crew though. As she's pulled into a wild treasure hunt and search for the desperate truth about her father she faces near death, unnecessary fights and running from the cops. It doesn't help that she has hidden feelings for another pogue and that one kook seems to have his eye on her. This summer was gonna be wild.

She's a wild, free spirit who sees the good in everyone, and he's the hardened, bad-tempered loner who wants nothing to do with her-yet no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she's the one temptation he can't escape. *** He's never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she says every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She's never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find it, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. *** "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)

"why don't you talk more?" "nobody listens," "I'll listen." i have a poem account on tiktok, (same user as on here) and a poem went crazy viral so people were telling me to write a story inspired by it :) a girl sits in the back of the class, taking notes. her hair is messy, and so is her handwriting. her head is down, hiding from anyone who might know her name, while a boy sits in the front, with his head high as everyone laughs at his joke. but this isn't a love story. not even close. see, they aren't strangers, but they act like they are. he knows her name, but he also knows she will never be enough for him, no matter how much he wants her to be. -L
