Completed • First Draft - not edited. || "You gonna sit there all night?" Luka glances at me, smirking. I glare back. "I was enjoying the last few seconds of peace before having to spend an evening pretending to like you." "That's funny," he says, unbuckling his seatbelt. "Why?" I snap. "Because I was thinking the same thing." || The rules? Easy enough. 1. Pretend to be the perfect couple. 2. Keep it professional. 3. And whatever you do, don't. catch. feelings. Simple, right? Sofia Calloway never planned on going viral for throwing a drink in Luka Mikhaylov's face. But one video, one pissed-off hockey star, and one furious university later... she's suddenly stuck in a fake relationship with the guy she can't stand. He needs to clean up his image before the NHL draft. She needs the free tuition that comes with the deal. All they have to do is smile for the cameras, hold hands at the games, and act like they don't want to strangle each other. Then come the late-night arguments that last too long. The stolen glances that feel too dangerous. The moment where "pretend" starts looking way too real. Because when you break the rules, someone's bound to lose. And this time, it might be both of them.

I loved him, and there were times he loved me too. When the cameras were off and the lights were low, Lando Norris really did love me. I have to believe that otherwise what else do I have to hold on to? - Evelyn Verstappen was the younger sister of World Champion, Max Verstappen and widely known for it across the grid. Lando Norris was the biggest competitor and rival to defend the World Champion against winning another title and the Verstappen family hated him because of it. They deemed him cocky, unprofessional, a bad sportsman and a cheat and the topic of nearly every family dinner. Unfortunately, Evelyn felt very differently about Lando than the rest of her family. -------------------------- I watched you for so long that season. I watched you when I knew nobody else was looking and I watched you when I knew I'd be caught. But I couldn't help it. You were, in every aspect of the word, our rival. My brothers biggest competitor. My teams largest pain the arse. And there was a time there, a very short amount of time, that I thought I had you. I must of had you. Right? I didn't imagine it? The touches, the whispered words, the stolen glances. They happened. They were real? Weren't they? You said you loved me, and I believed you. But did you mean them for me? Or was it just a strategy to get ahead in the game? But I know I'm not crazy, I didn't imagine the feelings I felt, I didn't imagine the electricity. You loved me, even if only for a moment. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ALL EVENTS AND PEOPLE IN THIS STORY ARE FOR ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY AND I MEAN NO OFFENCE TO THE REAL MEMBERS OF THE VERSTAPPEN AND NORRIS FAMILY.

Ayla é uma garota que enfrenta desafios que vão muito além da adolescência. Sob o mesmo teto que sua meia-irmã Sienna e seu padrasto abusivo, Marcos, ela luta diariamente para se proteger de um pesadelo que parece não ter fim. Na escola, Ayla é rotulada como a nerd chata e certinha - uma imagem que Dylan, o bad boy, se diverte em reforçar. Para ele, ela é apenas uma garota sem graça, escondida atrás de livros e notas altas. E para ela, ele é um arrogante insuportável, cercado por problemas. Cada interação entre eles se transforma em uma batalha de provocações, olhares tortos e discussões acaloradas. O ódio entre os dois é intenso. Mas o que começa como aversão logo se complica. Dylan começa a perceber uma atração inesperada por Ayla, enquanto ela luta contra seus próprios sentimentos confusos em relação a ele. À medida que se conhecem melhor, Ayla descobre que por trás da fachada durona de Dylan existe um cara sensível e quebrado. Conforme a situação com Marcos piora, surge a dúvida angustiante: será que ela vai conseguir vencê-lo e se libertar? "Eu te odeio pra caramba!" "Me odeia, amor?" "Você sabe que eu faria você ir nas alturas e esquecer essa sua raivinha por mim, né, anjo?"

Para ele tudo é um caso de uma noite, nenhuma mulher lhe chamou a atenção para mais e por isso nunca teve uma namorada. Até que alguém lhe chama a atenção, mas o problema era ela ser comprometida. Já ela está presa numa relação que já se tornou infeliz e sem piada mas ela não consegue deixá-lo. Quando ambos se conhecem é quando muitas coisas começam a mudar, ele muda e ela também. E ambos começam a viver a sua vida...
