Ever since she was little, Jess has been living with her father.  A mentally deranged man who has turned to drugs since the tragic death of her mother when she was a child. But not everything is as it seems.

Enter Jason Storms; debonair, rich, badass. Sweetheart? That's how he's been described at many of his past schools. But the one thing he isn't described as is a player. In fact he is saving himself for the one he will truly love, but will never admit that to anyone. He is protective of all of his female friends, and even more so of his mother. Most would think it's weird but, Jason finds it necessary that those around him be safe. Thank god he only has 1 female friend right? But why is he like this?

After getting kicked out his last school he is sent to Kennewick High, the last school in Washington state that will take him. There he sees Jess.  Kinda. Well not 'Jess' Jess. More like the hidden in the crowd girl names Jessica who is ignored at school, keeps her head down and just passes on with life while wearing colored eye contacts and a wig to keep her hidden. Will he end up recognizing her?After all she is his new coach. 

 Let's stalk them on their journey of love, hate, pain, sacrifice, illness, hospital visits, blah blah blah blah blah blah. Just remember some stories don't have happy endings...

Before You Leave by fbishi
40 parts Complete Mature
(Before You Leave #1) She was sent to boarding school over the smallest of mistakes... Okay, burning down your schools gym might have been a big one. But she didn't mean to do it. This time. And she's certainly no snitch. She's had a fine life. But she wanted something more. And so she created chaos. She was misjudged and misunderstood. And now she's the havoc of Birchwood Prep. They call her the devil's bitch, the principal's worst nightmare, and a screwed up whore. They can think what they want, JJ Ashton has heard these all throughout high school. She doesn't want a future, she just wants to take control of now. She's everything Birchwood Prep doesn't want, but is deemed to get after her Father decided it was the only option for her to find some discipline. She's not going to make it that easy for them. Gideon Andrews is the perfect student. Good grades, never missed a day, and never had been in trouble of any sort. He thinks life is great, but meeting JJ, she thinks life for him could be better. Less plain and vanilla. He hates her guts. It's mutual for her as well. But the headmaster has made it Gideon's personal mission to get her back on track and into a better life. She's allowed two screw ups, has to join a sports team, pass all of her classes with at least a C and get some friends before the year is over, or she will be held back. And she's not about to go another year in the hellhole called high school. (Marked mature for language and brief talk about sex.) *Still editing parts/making corrections* (Sequel is called: When I Stay)

I notice them stop and look back at me, signalling there is nothing and she is clean. She pants and looks at me directly in the eye. Hmm where do girls hide stuff? She's clean is she? Well is her body clean for anything? I look down at her body and grin up at her raising an eyebrow, she immediately gasps, "We are clever aren't we? This is going to be a fun search," I grin madly at her and pin her down to the dry floor, trying to get a firm hold. ---------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------- So, what happens when Ella becomes pregnant, and yes you've guessed it, with the 'bad boy's baby'?

Completed "What the hell do you think you're doing?" I asked, glaring at him while he forcefully dragged me out of class. "You told me you need help, and here I am!" Blake yelled. "Where did that come from?! What are you even talking about?!" I screamed at him. "I know you talked to Ryder about your situation. " My eyes widen and I yanked my hands out from his grasp. "I hate you..." I growled and starting to turn around to walk back to class. " You don't mean that... I love you, goddamn it! " He shouted that loud that the students around us stopped what they're doing and looked at us. I stopped walking. Before I can make a move to turn around, he beat me to it and slammed his soft pink lips against mine. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Meet Jade Williams, typical fat, nerd, and loner you will meet in the school, but she's not how you depict it.

All the girls drool over him, but he didn't give a shit about them. He was mysterious, he was one of the 5 Musketeers with Jason, William, Ryder, and Andy. What happens when the nerd met the school's bad boy just because of the biology pop quiz and they became friends? and soon lovers? When both of them get to know each other, their hearts slowly ache, but why? Will they heal? Or is it only one of them? Read it to find out more * Sort of a cliche story * WARNING: STRONG LANGUAGE

"Tell me, Eleanor, do you like seeing me like this? Do you like seeing me angry with you?" he yells, banging the spot above my head. I keep my mouth shut so I don't say the wrong thing and make him angrier. "Fucking answer me," he says, roughly shaking my body. "N-N-N-o-o," I stammer. "If you don't, then why don't you ever listen to me? The spanking wasn't enough? Do you need me to unleash my beast on you before you listen to me?" he asks, and I shake my head this time to tell him no. "Then give me a reason why I shouldn't take you across my legs right now and give you twenty lashes on each ass cheek for laughing at something Evan said," he says, and I pause for a minute. "You shouldn't spank me because it's my right to laugh or not at what Evan said." "You see, Eleanor, that's where you're wrong. Only I can tell you if you can laugh or not." "Excuse me?" I ask, looking at him confused and wondering if he's on something. "I own your laughter, Eleanor." "No, you don't." "I do. And not just your laughter. I own all of you." --------------------------------- Eleanor Brown is a lovely lady trying to make ends meets. She lands a job after an unfortunate event happens to her.
