"Fuck." He whispers into my neck, sending a thrill of excitement through my body. His lips still smothered kisses over my neck and his hands roamed my body, starting at my chest, going down to my stomach. Caressing my soft skin, his thumb trailed circles on my groin before slightly slipping into the waistband of my jeans. My breath catches in my throat as I pull at the hoodie that covered his chiselled body. Understanding, Jacob pulls it off in one swift movement before attaching his lips back on my neck. Sucking and biting it before flicking his tongue over the sore spot. A quiet moan leaves my mouth and I clasp my hand over it, denying any noise to escape. "You drive me fucking crazy, Aria." ---------------------------- Aria Bailey finds it hard to fit in. Her parents are always busy and never have time for her. She lives alone at her family home and has top grades in all of her classes. But being a 17 year old friendless nerd comes with its disadvantages.

"I walked over to where Aaron was sitting on the ground, kneeling so that I was face-to-face with him. He was wearing a blank expression on his face so I guess he didn't really care if I kissed him or not. I took in a deep breath before taking his face in both of my hands and swooping down to kiss him. At first, I was so nervous I didn't realize that we were already kissing but after a few moments, I realized how soft his lips felt on my own. Before I can register it I felt him moving against me. I would have gotten off of him but I realize that he wasn't moving to get away from me. No, He was moving his lips against mine." °°°°° Aiden Moore isn't extraordinary. He has average looks, he is OK with sports, and his only strong point is that he is smart (although that doesn't mean much to his fellow classmates). And, of course, his virgin ass has never had a girlfriend, let alone a crush. It seemed as if he would never find someone. That was until he met her, Scarlett Hale. She was the most beautiful girl you will ever meet. Kind, sweet, and one of the few people with a higher GPA then him, she was amazing and Aiden imagined that she would be all his. Once Aiden gets rid of her boyfriend, Aaron Tyler. The most annoying guy you will ever meet, Aiden gags just thinking about him. The man is smoking hot and makes Aiden's dreams of getting the girl to seem very impossible. So what would happen if Aiden gets involved with the wrong person? Will Aiden get the girl? Will he fall short? Or will he fall into the arms of a guy who is in love with the girl he loves? _______________________________________ WARNING: First book EVER! The best part about this book is that it has some funny bits and introduces you to characters I use for a while. But, if you don't like the writing, please consider one of my newer works 😊 Started: May 10, 2016 Completed: September 2016

You Take My Cares Away by Eternal_Moonlight13
7 parts Ongoing Mature
Change often comes unexpectedly, reshaping our lives in ways we never anticipated. When I started high school, everything around me shifted. My best friend began focusing on her music career, leaving me feeling left behind, just watching her life unfold from a distance. I had no idea she'd go on a tour that would take her away from me, and with each passing day, our once-close friendship faded into a distant memory. That year was filled with self-doubt and sadness. I clung to the memories of our laughter and shared dreams, which now felt like a painful joke. Her absence left a mark that took years to heal. In my sadness, I pulled away from everyone, closing myself off. I stopped doing the things that used to make me happy, convinced that I didn't deserve joy without her. Life pushed me to move on, and I chose to start fresh in a new city. There, I found a group of friends who helped me rebuild the trust I had lost-not just in others, but in myself. For the first time in what felt like forever, I saw a glimmer of hope. I was slowly putting together the pieces of my broken identity. But just when I started to feel like myself again, fate had other plans. Out of nowhere, she appeared at my door, a ghost from my past seeking forgiveness. Her presence was both comforting and painful, a reminder of the girl I once knew and the friendship we had. But I was no longer that same person; I had changed. I fought to suppress the emotions that surged from memories I thought I had buried deep within. I wanted her to see that I was okay without her, that I didn't need her anymore. Yet, like always, she broke through my defenses, and I just couldn't keep those feelings locked away forever. Now, everything is coming back to haunt me, crashing down like relentless waves. I'm struggling to hold myself together as I feel shattered. She doesn't grasp the pain I endured after she left, but I know I must find a way to reconcile with her and confront the scars that still linger in me.
