Prithika Singh would have told you that her love life was going great. After all, who could argue that the pretty cheerleader and the handsome quarterback with their sweet year-long relationship were anything less than a dream couple? But Prithika is startled awake when she sees her boyfriend, Carter Hale, kissing Julia Hart, one of the supposedly average girls, in the middle of the hallway on the first day of school. Suddenly, her vision for her junior year is totally derailed, and she's left feeling uncertain about her sense of trust and relationships. And then along comes Jackson Rains, Julia's ex-boyfriend, notorious at Poppy Hills High for his (crappy) motorcycle, tousled dark hair, black leather boots, and two very public fistfights. In an attempt to save their past relationships, Jackson and Prithika hatch a probably terrible plan: make everyone think they're dating. Prithika will try to show Carter she can be a more low-maintenance girlfriend, Jackson will try to show Julia that he can be a more attentive boyfriend, and then Carter and Julia will get jealous and return to the partners they were supposed to be with in the first place, and it'll all go back to normal. But it seems the more Prithika tries to make things fit the picture-perfect path her life was on, the more things fly off the rails: she's trapped in trying to be someone she's not, she's lying to her best friends Laila and Aurora, she can tell Aurora's keeping secrets, she realizes how little she actually knows Carter, and she's getting more invested in Jackson's personal life than expected. Can she get her life back under control? Or will trying to fix things make a bigger mess?

Stealing from anyone is a risk. Stealing from a pirate is downright foolish. But Isaac's right where he wants to be. On a pirate ship, under the Captain, sailing away from Lowen and the life he was forced into.

Maybe, just maybe... it's something more. ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// It was violent movements, rapid, heading directly for me. My heart spiked as I began to think of a mode of escape. But I was too late. I turned around as the giant beast dug its claws into my chest.

For students of the Wynter Academy, the virtual world of Cytronica is the perfect after-school hangout. A private realm just for them and the local bots-no teachers, no parents. Tired of its boring ways, five students find a way to tweak its code, altering the world as creatively as they see fit. The realm has limitless potential and possibilities; letting it go to waste would be a crime. But rewriting the rules has consequences-what starts off as a fun experiment quickly becomes a dangerous situation as the once-safe world transforms into a lawless dystopia. They need to make a decision: reset the realm before the school finds out, or push its boundaries and embrace the carnage. But not all agree, and the students are forced to choose a side. And as the chaos intensifies, an all-out virtual war looms, where only the strongest can survive. A BIG THANK YOU TO EVERYONE FOR READING AND VOTING! I REALLY APPRECIATE IT!

... It wasn't that he was annoyed. Okay, maybe he was a little annoyed, but that was because a certain explosive punk decided to test the flammability of his sheets at 2 in the morning. Every single morning. (In which Bakugou's quirk wakes Kirishima up, and Kirishima gets way too invested in his bro's well-being.) **NOW REVISED AS OF 1/2/2023**
