Savannah White. The amazing soccer girl with the dead mom. Or at least that's what people think of her what you don't see is the constant bruises and cuts and scars from her dad. Her life was going smoothly until the death of her mother and that's when her dad became her worst nightmare. Nathaniel Court. The rich hot soccer player with a slight players streak. What you don't see is that behind his cool rude play boy type attitude he actually cares for those around him. When Savannah's dad is put in jail she is sent to live with her mom's best friend's family, the Courts. When Savannah and Nate meet things don't go as planned when they end up hating each other. Ever heard of love at first sight? For these two the saying is a little backwards with hate at first sight. But can their love for soccer bring them together?

10 Shit 9 I walk in the living room and stood in a random corner in an attempt to be away from everyone else. 8 I looked around to see if anyone else was as lonely as I was. 7 But everyone was either taken or asleep. Typical. 6 Well, I knew I was going to die a loner anyways. 5 what would it be like to kiss a cow? 4 i bet it would be slimmy. 3 and smelly. 2 "There's no more time", I signed already planning on ditching this place and finding a cow to spend my life with. 1 As I was headed for the door, I was pulled into a closet and a soft pair of warm lips were pressed against mine. Tenderly they grasp the back of my head, pulling me in closer. I slowly melt in to them, embracing the kiss and allowing myself to surrender into the moment. As soon as I knew it those soft lips pulled away and I open my eyes, coming face to face with my reality. Those soft lips belonged to the same green eyes I would stare at numerous times and fantasize. Those same eyes which i knew were basically off limits. From that kiss, I knew there was no way in hell I was going to be able to continue following that rule. I just kissed Aiden. I gulped and looked at the ground. That was also my first kiss. -------------------------------- Sarah Patel. 17 year old Indian American Teen who's one goal in life is to finish high school, unnoticeably, snarkingly, and with her best friend Jasmine by her side.

***COMPLETE*** Book #1 in the Hookup series "You're incredibly sexy Emily" I feel sexy, especially when he's looking at me like that. I could melt into a puddle right here from the way his body is pressed so close to mine and the way his eyes are taking me in. "Hunter," I say in warning as his hand snakes further up my thigh. "Tell me to stop and I'll stop," He says as he pulls me down and nuzzles my hair. "But just remember this is a one-time thing and nobody has to find out about it if you don't want them to." By nobody I know he means Tara. She would literally disown me if she ever found out something had happened between me and one of her brothers. It's girl code, right? You can't sleep with or have any sexual relations with relatives, exes or anyone that your best friend deems unfit.
