CURRENTLY IN THE PROCESS OF BEING REWRITTEN!

Katie Reynolds is the most popular and liked person at school. Being the head cheerleader, having the friends, boyfriend, and supposed money, she seems like the definition of perfect. That couldn't be farther from the truth. She may appear to be rich but really, she has to work everyday after school just to help put food on the table for her family. The notorious Chase Parker is the resident bad boy. He is big, scary, and avoided by everyone. He lives alone and has to fend for himself. When they both get a job at the same local restaurant, they have to learn to work together in order to keep their jobs. With those two working so close together, they are bound to fall in love. Through their ups and downs, they make Mr. and Mrs. Imperfect.

"I'm not doing this to her." I tell him, backing away. He shrugs. "She doesn't have to know about this. About us." He steps closer so he backed me against the wall. "Don't deny it. You feel the same and I'm going to prove it." He cages me in and presses his lips to mine, making me forget about all we were arguing about and taking the risk. ~~~ Katie has one goal: Finish high school early, receive a basketball scholarship, and get the hell out of Beverly Hills with her best friend, Elsa. To escape? Maybe. To escape a certain person or people? Definitely. The last thing Katie needed was a boyfriend. To be more specific: her childhood bully as her boyfriend. Or to be even more specific; her best friend's brother. She thought she had everything worked out, she had her plan, she had the date of when she was leaving, and she was excited. The plus side being, she gets to do it all with her best friend, Elsa Martin. One thing that was never on the agenda was falling in love with her best friend's brother, who had spent the past six years tormenting her. When Jordan Martin stepped foot into Katie's life six years ago, he tried all he could to gain her attention, even if it meant making her life a living hell. Now, he has entered his final year at High School, Katie one year behind, yet that doesn't stop him from trying to show her how much he wants her. One problem they must try to avoid: Elsa. Will they keep it a secret from her? Can Katie risk it all for him? Will she finally give him the chance to be with her despite all the pain he had caused her? As their wacky relationship has twists and turns, Katie tries to forget about the past even if it means losing a friendship that she lives for.

"Why do you hate me so much. One minute you are all on me the next you act like I'm dead. I don't want to do this any more." I yell in his face. He gives me one those smiles that make me want run my fingers down his ..... Then he pulls me in to his arms. He puts his big strong hands on my face " I do hate you. I hate you because you made it so easy to fall in love. I love you so much it makes my heart hurt, and for that I hate you!" He kisses me. I feel every word he spoke in that one kiss. {Tijan Inspired}
