"I-I've never kissed a g-girl." "So you're saying you've kissed a boy?" I tease tangling my fingers in the baby-haired curls on the nape of his neck. He looks down slightly and I can see the blush forming and creeping up his neck."N-no. I haven't... I haven't kissed anyone before." He admits shyly freezing in place when my teeth graze his neck ever-so-gently and I feel him shiver underneath me. I smirked slightly knowing that I was having some sort of effect no matter how minuscule it was. "Let's change that." ~*~ I never thought I'd really fall. Never like the naive, stupid girls in the sappy romance movies. I believed that we become infatuated, never really love. In fact I was against love. I was against stereotypical high school. I was against anyone who followed the unwritten rules of a 'normal' life. The 'rules' being 1. The boy always had to make the first move. 2. Drinking was 'unhealthy' 3. Brains and beauty don't mix. And I was so far against it and my pride was so important that I took on a dare at some shitty party. Never did I think the dare would affect me so much. But you never know. There might not be such a big difference between me and the math nerd. -Your Resident BadGirl ~ẠỤÐẸ₦ ₡ŁẠƦƙ

"When I tell you that he hates me, you'll probably assume it's because he's a jerk...but you'd be wrong. He's not a jerk. I am." --- Several years ago tragedy struck Emma's home, leaving her broken... like a cup with cracks spiraling and slithering around the edges. Slowly, bitterness crept in like tar, hardening between each fracture to resemble a deceitful wholeness. She became a monster, and targeted her venom on the sweetest person she could find: Trinity Nixon. Too bad the boy Emma longed for was Trinity's brother. Now, as Emma fights to win the heart of the boy who despises her, she's forced to hide her demons. She paints her fragile cup in pinks, yellows, and oranges - all the colors of the sun. She paints on a smile, and an unusual sense of humor, so that the world will view her as bright and cheerful, when in reality she's breaking. But she's completely unprepared for the acidic truth that melts away the tar, demolishing her shell, and awakening the Emma White buried deep inside. --- Book 1 in The Dismantled Pride series *Story was previously titled "Faking It"

Boy meets girl, girl falls in love, blah-blah-blah. Let me be clear with you from the beginning. This is not that kind of story. My name is Cait, and I live in the great city of New York. Okay, so maybe I've only lived here for a week and a half, sue me, but what else am I supposed to say? This strange and beautiful metropolis is my new home, or the closest thing I've probably ever had to a home, and I intend to make the most of my time here. I'm 20 years old, an ex-sophomore in college, and I'm really good at math. Obviously, I've never filled out any kind of bio before. This is my story. It's the kind of story where reality bites, love isn't always what it seems, and maybe - just maybe - everything won't suck in the end. #43 in General Fiction - 12/02/2016 #44 in Teen Fiction - 6/11/2017 _____ © Jandra Sutton. 2016.
