Dakota is just like every other 17 year old high school senior. Or that's what everyone thinks. Everyone sees Dakota as this funny, sarcastic, and caring girl. What people don't see is how much she is truly suffering inside. People don't know that the smile she always wears is completely fake. They don't know what's really going on at home. They don't see the bruises she has to cover up every morning. They don't see her having to step up to take care of her two younger siblings. She puts on a fake smile as soon as she walks through the school doors and slowly builds her walls up higher as each day goes on. She thinks no one will ever see past her facade...that is, until three new bad boys come strolling into town taking an automatic interest in Dakota. And one certain bad boy can read her like an open book. Will Dakota eventually let these three bad boys in? Or will she keep everything in until she finally reaches her breaking point?

He nodded to the flower she had just essentially brought back to life. "What does the gardenia symbolize in this language?" "Young love," she answered after a moment of hesitation. "Secret love." Loki felt something flutter in his chest. - Arranged marriages are something out of Shakespeare and ancient history. At least that is the thought of Loki Odinson, but his father clearly has other plans. In a political move aimed to unite Vanaheim and Asgard, Loki is betrothed to the youngest daughter of the royal family of the neighboring realm, Vanaheim. Loki, who doesn't even know if he believes in love at all, finds himself in a very odd position, especially because he's met his betrothed before. A marriage date is set, but both the bride and the groom are less than satisfied. Can love grow out of circumstance?

When we first kissed it set my body on fire and I knew we had a connection. From the first moment you stopped me from walking out of SHIELD I knew you were different.

When you first walked into my apartment trying to find the flashdrive I knew my life was never going to be the same. -Theme Song: Nickelback - Trying Not To Love You 18+ Minors don't interact. -Mason is a intersex lesbian, G!P -Girl x Girl -Natasha x Fem!Rogers!OC *Most Impressive Rank #1 Black Widow 7/21/20 #1 Natasha Romanoff 10/25/20 #1 Serum 7/24/21 #1 Iron Man 6/30/21 #1 Wanda Maximoff 10/7/20 #1 Scarlet Witch 8/18/21 #1 Serum 8/18/21 #1 Nickelback 10/30/20 #1 Alex Russo 11/14/20 #1 Logan 12/27/20 #1 SHIELD 2/13/21 #1 Thor 2/15/21 #1 Hawkeye 9/26/21 #1 Avengers 8/18/21 #1 Peter Parker 3/10/21
