When Jonah is forced to move from Hamilton to Cross Pointe for the second half of his senior year, "miserable" doesn't even begin to cover it. He feels like the doggy-bag from his mother's first marriage and everything else about her new life with a new husband, new home and a new baby is an upgrade. The people at Cross Pointe High School are pretentious and privileged and worst of all is Brighton Waterford, the embodiment of all things superficial and popular. Jonah's girlfriend, Carly, is his last tie to what feels real... until she breaks up with him. 

For Brighton, every day is a gauntlet of demands and expectations. Since her father died, she's relied on one coping method: smile big and pretend to be fine. It may have kept her family together, but she has no clue how to handle how she's really feeling. Today is the anniversary of his death and cracks are beginning to show. The last thing she needs is the new kid telling her how much he dislikes her for no reason she can understand. She's determined to change his mind, and when they're stuck together for the night, she finally gets her chance. 

Jonah hates her at 3p.m., but how will he feel at 3 a.m.? 

One night can change how you see the world. One night can change how you see yourself.

All Of You by ameesaAhlam

(Though highly recommend to read the book "Obsession, Madness & Love" first, this book can be read as a standalone.) ____________________________________________ I made a mistake. A terrible one. I betrayed my best friend. The only person who ever cared for me. But I had no choice. Then there's his younger sister, Maria Andrews who always looked up to me as if I was some kind of an angel, little does she know that I am far away from that. And now I am on the run, trying to leave everything behind. But it's been four years, four fucking years since her eighteenth birthday when she confessed having feelings for me. For Me. And her words still haunt me, the tears in her eyes when I rejected her still burn my heart but I did what I had to do. People don't love me, especially women...they only seek pleasure from me. I am not a lovable person and someone you should definitely steer clear of. Getting involved with my best friend's (or ex best friend's) sister is stupid and I'm fucking mature enough to not even think of her, of someone who is eight years younger than me. But now, she is here and God help me, I am about to cross every fucking line.

Falling For The Bad Boy || Completed by s154261

"I hate you," she muttered and I was taken aback. I looked at the guys for a quick second and back at her. "W-" "Don't ever scare me like that again," she said harshly, colliding with my body. I cringed hard and Erik pulled away so he wasn't in the middle of our embrace. I wrapped my arm around her tight waist and held her against me. I never planned on letting her go. Ever. "I'll try. I'll try for you," I whisper in her ear, my lips brushing against her skin. ~{}~{}~{}~{}~{}~{}~{}~{}~{}~{}~{}~{}~{}~{}~{}~{} Rachel is a strong girl that has a strange past of stealing.

My Teddy by AquafinaBlue012

The corner of his mouth tilts upward slightly. I smile again. A smile!? A tiny one, but still. "Hm. So I got you to smile, that's progress, yeah? Can I get your name now?" I ask, swinging my feel a little. He shakes his head shyly, his mouth not moving at all. Geez! Why do I want to hear this dude talk so much? "Okay, that's fine. I can give you a nickname." I offer happily. He looks up from his book, raising his eyebrows. I just stare for a moment. He has nice eyes. Pretty brown chocolate orbs. They remind me so much of....... "Teddy." He shakes his head immediately, frowning. "What, why not? You remind me of my old teddy bear. He was a good listener and he didn't talk much..... just like you." I say softly, tilting my head. He continues to shake his head. I fold my arms, leaning back in my seat. "Yeah, it's definitely sticking. Teddy.....It has a nice ring to it, yeah?" He sighs, the first sound I have ever heard him make. "No." . . . *Jordan* Teddy!? Seriously!? She gave me a fucking NICKNAME!? What the hell does this girl want!? I stuff my hands into my pockets, walking down the busy street. Forget about her. She's just a annoying pretty girl, she'll go away. Everybody does. She HAS to go away. *Spoiler alert*: she doesn't. Don't get close to people or they'll end up getting hurt. That's my mindset. I've been through enough of that. This girl doesn't belong in my world anyway. She's too innocent. *Mature content* {Just a quick update, I am basically rewriting the story. I wrote it when I was in 8th grade and it makes me cringe every time I try to go back and edit it so keep in mind that it'll get better}

Hey There Cliché. Fuck Off. [complete] by jiminieminmouse

"Are you ever afraid of being alone?" I asked after a while. A question that had randomly popped into my mind. I wasn't expecting him to answer me, but he did. Jonah turned his face, but I didn't look back at him, I kept staring up at the skies. He turned back to the sky and took a breather before answering. "We're always going to be alone, Rose. Always. We'll be haunted by the darkness that is our own shadow, but in every shadow there's a light." He answered, as if the simplest thing in the world. I only stared at him with a dropped jaw. That was out of this world. Especially coming from Jonah. "When does it get better?" I mumbled. "It doesn't. But to go through it with someone makes it a whole lot easier." He turned back to face me. We stared at each other for a while. He'd always occasionally look down at my lips, and I'd do the same to him. I broke it off and looked back up at the sky. -=- New York City. The place of opportunities. But what shall Rose do when there's so many of them? Jonah, the seducer with a British accent, or Cameron, equally British but sweet. Her clock is ticking. She has one year to make up her mind until the exchange program takes back all their Brits and their New Yorkers return. And so the end-of-the-year party is the final strike. Either Rose chooses...or she doesn't. *WARNING* I began this book (my first book ever) when I was like 11 or 12 years old so the first chapters (idk how many) suck, not gonna lie. I had scrapped so many ideas (that I only really wrote a few chapters of) that when I was older enough to realize the story I had going so far sucked, I didn't want to scrap again, so I finished for that sake in a span of 3 years (and ended in 2014). All in all, not my greatest work, but read on if you wish. Text Copyright © droppedintoxic™ 2014

"So it'll be like friends with benefits," he said. I nodded my head. "Yeah, kind of." "I bet I can make you fall in love with me," he challenged. "That's not my thing," I reconsidered. "But I'll like that to be part of the challenge." "You got it." He took his hand out. "Whoever falls in love first, loses," I stated and shook his hand.

[Highest ranking #85] "Your family killed my mother for no reason plus I'm a pathetic weak girl, so don't expect us to be friends even if we have to be married" Jezebel said I looked at her blankly this is my fault I pushed her away I said all those things I acted cold towards her. She looked at me and you could see the slightest speck of emotion and its was sadness. I shook my head and looked at her. She rolled her eyes and started to walk out but I stopped her. "Oh Ella..

True Love/ Raura by lovinraura_

A/N, Warning: this book is so old and I made it when I didn't know how to write properly, so it's kind of ridiculous and not logical. There's grammar mistakes and stupid lines and this isn't my writing anymore!!! I've grown out of it and you can check out my most recent books if you want something good to read. If you wanna read this too that's fine, but don't be surprised at the amount of cringey ridiculousness in it. Proceed!💗 The hockey player and the cheerleader . Now from the movies and books you've read, you'd think that this would be the 'IT' couple but if you told them this ,they'd think you're crazy. He was hot ,he was cute and maybe even sweet sometimes but he was also a player ,a jerk ,the one boy at your high school that you call the typical "Bad boy ". Laura on the other hand was popular but she was very sweet .Her popularity and reputation on being a cheerleader, didn't stop her from being nice to everyone.She was that social butterfly. So they were opposites .In some ways at least .Why did they hate each other? Well it had to do with a little incident when they were only 5 .The day they first meet.They now have that sexual tension and the fact that they were both hot didn't help . They also have quite a history with each other from their family's being friends AND hanging out in the same friend group (which leaded to ALOT of teasing from friends )but the one thing they didn't know was that ,they would make a whole lot more history .The history of their lives . ...Read and find out how two enemies fall in love......Sexual tension? Yes. Cliche ? 100% . Romance ? You know it.You might want to seat down for this ;) ~~~~ If you're going to check out this book I'd suggest you also read my other book The Moon and The Sun as well! It's definitely an upgrade from this one :) -- COMPLETE ✓

The Player in Him by Oneinamillie

"Why aren't you scared?" I whine and he laughs. "Come on, you wouldn't dare hurt me with that. It's too risky, and I can get out of this easily, babe." I can tell he's smirking and it's sickening. "Oh yeah? Try." I say confidently and in one swift motion, he has me on the floor. He's now straddling me with both my hands above me and the knife in his hands, pressed lightly against my throat. This turns me on... "I...I stand corrected." I wheeze in laughter, ignoring the massive pain in my head. "Now can you be a nice guy and turn off the music and help me with this pain please?" "That's all I was waiting for, Doll." He smirks and gets off of me, setting the knife on the counter. I roll over, groaning as I make my way to the living room to lay on the couch. Liam Forte and Jasmine Galvin. Opposite, but similar in many ways. The difference? He's a player. Every school has one, and Liam is the one. Moving in to her house shortly after summer has officially started, Jasmine has to deal with the boy who will leave a permanent mark on her life. Kinda immature, I'm no grown ass woman. SLOWLY EDITING. DON'T SHOOT! Follow up: DONE EDITING. YOU MAY DROP YOUR WEAPONS! Follow up to the follow up: NOT REALLY DONE EDITING, BUT KEEP THE FIRE DOWN! I'M WRITING THE SECOND BOOK (the better one, in my opinion) SO MY TIME IS ATE UP.

Do you have to come here and rub it in my face?!" I asked the stupid blonde furiously. She just scoffed, looking unbothered as always.Then she started walking towards me, and only stoping when our faces are inches apart. My heart skipped a beat as she leaned in towering me, allowing her warm minty breath to fan my face, and her cinnamon cologne to wrap my senses. I physically had to stop myself from taking a step back. "I'm just starting. I'll only stop when I make you cum moaning my name" she said seductively in a husky voice, sending shivers down my spine. I just stood there my cheeks flushed and my eyes wide. She gave me her stupid signature smirk when she saw the affect she had on me, and she's gone from my face. It was then I realized I've been holding my breath. What will happen between these two? Will love prevail when it's least expected? Will an angel and a bad girl work? Read to find out!!!
