I'm a 16 year old girl with a social phobia. Of course its a real thing! In afraid of people judging me, noticing when I'm uncomfortable, etc. I've tried for years to get over it. I'm still trying as we speak, but for the moment I think I'll just stay here hiding behind my book.
I'm nerdy and used to go for the bad boys (clique right?) Until i let one in and he broke my heart. All well \(°~°)/
Anyway... ON TO THE STORY!!!!!!!!!

My Bully
"You're such a fucking slut. Get changed." He demanded. I could tell he was daring me to disobey by his stern glare. "No dad." I attempted to walk past him to go back to the party before he picked me up and threw me over his shoulder, walking us to his car. I screamed and kicked for him to let me down but he held on even tighter until aggressively slamming me into the passenger seat. Before he went to shut the door and go to the drivers side of the car he crouched down and leaned in to whisper in my ear. "If you get out of this car I'll get Luke out here so we can beat you up till you're bloody." He threatened, proceeding to slam the door shut. My ass was glued to that seat. -------- Lily is like any other 16 year old girl, horny and tired. She's tired of constantly being bullied by her brother and his best friend, Ethan. She's dealt with it her entire life, but something begins to change between her and Ethan. What felt like hate soon became lust. He's toxic, he's manipulative, he's mean, but somehow she's attracted to him. Of course neither wants to admit it though. Will their relationship actually work or will they both end up with their heads blown off? ------- Mature content⚠️ - mentions and some SA - cursing - abuse - depression and suicidal thoughts This is kinda dark romance. I don't endulge in romance like this it's just fun to write. This is also a slow burn. If you're impatient and want character development fast this book isn't for you. I want to keep this story as realistic as possible and people changing their ways overnight isn't. I also just love books where not everything is sped through and you really get to know the characters and their habits.
Rejected
***if you don't like cliches don't read this book, this is my "first book" and I'd appreciate positive comments, I don't care if it's too happy. It's MY book, I am a happy person. Sorry I'm not killing you with suspense :/ this book is still being edited so if you see any misspelling, I know it's there I'm just too lazy and I don't have time to fix it thank you :)) ***Disliking boys would be an understatement. Hating boys would be more like it. I, April Rodriguez, pledge not to ever like boys ever again. Not after what happened. I may have been a kid, but It broke my heart. He was all I had. Little did I know that could change, because he's back. Jackson, my childhood friend wants me back. I don't know if I'm strong enough to hold a grudge. Or the fact that his good looks won't help. Sooner or later I might have to break my promise. I can't. I just can't.Complete
