badboy bestfriends delinquent family friends relationship school teenfiction

Hayden O'Callaghan and his friends, Andrew Deeks and Dylan Wonder, have been arrested for anti-social behaviour. They were told they had to do 3 months community service and attended compulsory teen counselling sessions at their local youth centre, as the Judge knows of each of the boys' troubled home lives.      

At the centre Hayden meets Abi, a girl who completely goes against his expectations of what a volunteer at the youth centre would be like. At first the pair hate each other and are constantly at each others' throats, but once they acknowledge the undeniable attraction they have for each other, the sparks start to fly. 

Abi wants to help Hayden reach his goals and be the best he can be, but Hayden isn't letting her in easily. How are you supposed to help a boy who doesn't want to let anyone one in, and fears failure so much that he won't even try and be successful?

Will Hayden's fear of failing prevent him from flying and make him think he's not good enough? Or will Abi be able to break down his walls, and see Hayden for who he truly is behind is arrogant clown façade?

You're All I Need (Complete) by deira_marie

Hayden and Darin have been best friends practically their whole lives. Ever since Hayden's dad was arrested she had been friends with Darin. She was sitting in the corner of the classroom crying when Darin walked over to her. He didn't say anything, he just wraps her in a hug & whispers in her ear that he is sorry. That's how it all started. 9 years later they are still inseparable. It's just a normal day. Tragedy strikes & they are gone in a blink of an eye. Can Hayden save Darin? Is everything lost? What happens when heartbreak, betrayal, & tragedy push them both over the edge? Will they fall in love or lash out & attack the things they care for most? When the inevitable happens will it push them closer or farther away? **Just a warning** This was the first book I've ever written. It's very cliche. Not a terrible book, but not great. The second is way better. This one is however a key part of Hayden's story so I recommend you read it before the sequel. Also please vote & comment!

Started with a babe by YinYang_27

My friend and I started writing this story as a joke, so expect a lot of cringe tropes and characters at the beginning but it develops into more serious topics later.

Skylar Jennings and her mom just moved to NightView California to get away from her ex- boyfriend. What will happen when she's asked to babysit the younger sister of the one and only resident bad boy of NightView High, Wilder Hayes? Will her opinion on the bad boy's personality stay the same? Or will he prove her wrong? TW: Strong Language, mentions of abuse (We put warnings before and after scenes that may trigger people)

Fighting You ✔ by KindesttRegardss

(Previously known as Mr vs Miss Delinquent) Dylan, turned to me slowly before kneeling and collecting my books, when he stood back up he was welcomed with my smirk making his glare intensify. "I'd watch my back if I were you, you should know not to mess with me" Dylan whispered stepping closer to me, his breath fanning my face. So typical. "Really? Am I supposed to be scared, because I'm not. Infact, I think you should watch out, I'm about to take over." I smirked "We'll see" he says with a similar smirk before turning in his heels and walking off, along with Zac, Chase and Blake. This is going to be one heck of a year. **** Meet Skylar Reed!

Reckless Fearless Careless | ✓ by myreadingaddictions

"What are you doing here?" I ask but it comes out as a sob. I don't want him, or anyone for that matter, to see me like this. I'm a wreck. Wyatt doesn't seem to mind though. He softly brushes the remaining tears from my face with his thumb. "I saw you run out of the canteen, green eyes. I couldn't just leave you here to cry because that would go against the tutor code." "Tutor code?" I ask, puzzled. "Yes, the tutor code. It states that a student must make sure his tutor is never upset or crying and if he does ever find her like this it's his job to make her smile at any cost," he tells me. "You just made that up." "Maybe I did but that doesn't matter. Come on," he says, extending his hand out to me. "Where are we going?" "You'll see." ~*~*~ Aurora is a normal seventeen year old, happy and content with life. However, this all changes the day her boyfriend of two years, James, breaks up with her. Naturally, she's crushed. The icing on the cake is why he did it. Apparently she's 'too boring'. Determined to prove him wrong, she strikes a deal with the school's notorious bad boy, Wyatt King. She'll tutor him in maths if he teaches her to be reckless, fearless and careless. Can Aurora overcome the odds and do what she planned? Or perhaps someone will stop her on her mission to win over James. Maybe this isn't as easy as she thought it would be. Maybe she takes things a little too far. And just maybe making a deal with the bad boy isn't such a smart idea. ~*~*~ *contains mature language* #9 in high school 20/02/19 #1 in young love 14/03/19 #2 in chicklit 27/03/19 #1 in heartbreak 08/04/19 #21 in teenfiction 26/08/20 #10 in romance 26/08/20 #1 in bad boy 02/04/21

The Bad Boy Wants Me by sayeba

"The problem is" he said, "if I kiss you, I don't think I'd be able to stop." But that's the problem. He doesn't have to kiss me. We've barely talked before, we barely know each other. He has probably said this to a million other girls. "But you don't have to kiss me" I was probably going to get killed for talking back to the bad boy. "Why are you doing this? I've never crossed your way, what do you want from me?" I ask, very very calmly. "That's exactly why I want you. You've never crossed my way," and with that infamous smirks, he leaves me thinking. ~•~ Aaron Mathews, bad boy of Aradale High School. Jordan Mathews, sweetheart of Aradale High School.
