Parties, boys, and popularity: the only things ever on Rome's mind. Grades, work, and graduation: the only things that matter to Lucas. Rome Mendoza is the beautiful cheer captain that everyone obsesses over, out of either jealousy or lust. She has the money, the looks, and the attitude. She rather keep up her routine of toxic exes and failing classes than worry about the cute guy in her history class. Lucas Astor is the quiet outcast who no one pays much attention to. He rather hide his face in a book than take part in the teenage party life that everyone else adores. Especially when it involves the rude popular girl who has a soft spot for him. Unfortunately, life doesn't really care about what they rather do. -enemies to friends to lovers-

---------- "You think you're different to me, don't you?" I tilt my head, staring at each other's lips. Without breaking eye contact, he slowly stands, making him in control with the advantage in height. I'm the one looking up at him now. "And you think I'm easy right?" He leans down close to my face, my back hitting the counter. "Does it turn you on the way I speak to you? Every time I say I hate you, do you clench those thighs? Do you think you're special to me because you're the only pretty girl I touch like this?" He whispers, his grip tightening more. My chest rises up and down at the proximity. I was expecting a reaction but not one like this. This is exactly what I wanted. To see him like this, the side of him no one else got to see. "You think I'm pretty?" I lean closer to him but his force on me doesn't let me get closer. ------------------ Annalise Martin is the IT girl, attracting attention everywhere she goes. From perfect looks to perfect grades, people are always watching her, wanting to be her. Jude Fitz is a moody guy and isn't caught speaking to anyone ever. Never being noticed by her. He goes unnoticed and untouched until Annalise gets her eyes on him. Total opposites but something between the two makes sense..

A man is usually the brutal, buffed, angry all the time, mafia leader. A women is usually the nerd, don't have friends and shy. But what if the roles change. .... Nyx Dimó is 17 years old who is shy and has mental issues if he doesn't take his pills. The nicest person and apologized for everything, sometimes he speaks his mind and sometimes people listen. He's used to it. Renata Malo is 19 years old, she is the word first Mexican mafia to lead and she is no where nice. She kills people for living, the hottest women in the city, ruthless, and most of all....she has a bounty over her head. ... "You shouldn't love me. You shouldn't have kissed me. You shouldn't have CHOOSE me! I only bring worse into people. Don't choose me." Tears glistening her eyes but not crying. She huffs and runs a hand through her beautiful wavy brown hair. All I saw in her, was pure perfection that she can't see. "You don't get to make that choice." I said calmly, I walked up to her, grabbing her cute little hands. "And you can't bring the worse in me because it was already there." Her eyes finally met mine, making my stomach flutter with love. "I'm the Mexican Mafia leader, I go by Malo. I kill people who deserve it, I kill when it's needed. Right now, I really want to kill you for even loving me, looking at me too." She harshly said while letting go of my hands, pushing them away from her. "Then kill me, I rather die if I can't love you like the way I see you. Do you really want that?" ..... #1 corny
