"Hi!" I smile up at him. He's a lot taller than I expected, especially compared to my 5'4 height.

"Hello?" He responds, raising an eyebrow.

"I just... um... noticed you were in history with me and was wondering what's your name." I respond, slightly confused by his cold tone.

"I'm Hakeem." He says simply.

So he's not even going to ask for my name? Who does he think he is? He should be honored to know my name. I think to myself jokingly. 

"Don't you want to know my name?" I ask, raising an eyebrow in confusion.

"Nope."

Roxanne Williams has everything a 17 year old girl could want: 
Two loving parents. 
A ride or die best friend.
A position at the top of her school's social chain. 

When her math grade starts to sink, she's forced to learn that her bubbly charm isn't going to solve all her problems. Her math teacher takes notice and assigns her one of his best students as a tutor. 
She meets Hakeem Rashford: a smart, attractive, but intimidatingly serious guy. His mysterious persona draws her in even though he makes it clear to her that he's not interested. She doesn't know why he seems to have a burning hatred for her and everyone else at their school; but, she wants to find out. What he doesn't know is: when Roxanne wants something, she gets it.

"What the hell did you do!?" I heard a feminine voice behind me. I groaned and turned around to meet a very angry face. I have never seen a girl this pissed before and honestly speaking, I am a little bit afraid. "She knew what she was getting into. Everyone knows I am player and I never stick to one girl." I shrugged and turned around to walk away. I didn't even take one step when I felt a firm hand on my t-shirt. She took a fist full of my shirt and turned me around so I was facing her. She then held my collar. Damn, she is almost the same height as me and if I would have been any normal guy, I would be terrified of her. "You don't treat girls like trash, asshole. She has feelings, she is not some toy that you got bored from after playing for a while. Apologize to her." She said through gritted teeth pointing towards Leah who was crying her eyes out. I noticed the crowd that started forming around us. I shrugged her hand away from my t-shirt and glared at her. "I will not apologize to anyone." I said slowly through gritted teeth. She is starting to piss me off. No one clashes me and no one stands against me. Even though I am new here, everyone knows that. I saw her eyes go blank and before I could duck, her fist made contact with my face and I felt sharp pain coursing through my nose. I held my nose tight and felt warm liquid flowing to my lips. Olivia Claire is a 16 year old high scholar. She is a fighter who never took anyone's shit and is famous for it. She mostly minds her own business occasionally helping people that might need her. Carter Grayson is a 16 year old guy recently transferred to Olivia's high school. Tall, handsome guy with lean figure, hazel eyes, brown hair and smile to die for. He has been known to be a player in his last high school and he plans on continuing that identity. So, what happens when a typical bad boy clashes with a not-so-nerd bad girl.

"You should have known me better than this, little sparrow," He chuckled deeply, his gaze fixed on me. "Lucas please!" I cried, now stopped by the wall as my heart beats faintly. "Don't worry it's just a little game, you and I will play, you'll love it, little sparrow," He smirked.

She looks up at me, taking a step forward and smiling slightly, "How can I ever get hurt when I have you here to protect me?" "But you could have gotten hurt," I murmur softly, hanging my head and feeling my shoulders drop, the tension seeping from my body. "No. Stop," She cuts me off sternly but tenderly, "Don't talk like that, Reece. I'm okay, you're okay, we're okay," She speaks softly, reaching her hand up to gently brush her thumb over my cheek, just under the cut that's there. "We're okay," I repeat, taking a small step closer to her. She nods with a small smile, moving her hand down from my cheek and instead placing the palm of her hand on my chest, right over my heart. I know she can feel how fast my heart is beating. I just don't know why it's doing that. ~ Reece Carter is the bad boy of Northwood High. He smokes and he fights.

ADDICT IN BLACK SPIN OFF Keagan Monikol: the jock with a hidden talent for poetry and an unarming amount of intelligence. Hidden away under stereotypes and an unwillingness to correct people's assumptions, his true self is far less dumb and far more sensitive than other's give him credit for. He's ordinary, so why not just let them all think he's ordinary, too? Robin Rae: All around nerd, complete Star Wars fan, and absolutely doesn't care about people's opinions. And she thinks he's a total dummy. Have you ever wanted to run away? To become completely different from who you are, to just start over? Keagan...doesn't. He has no need to change, no need to prove himself. No one knows him, not really. But what happens when he meets someone who he wants to be himself around? After being paired for an assignment in their math class, the two can't help but to butt heads. It also seems that Keagan can't stop himself from falling for the girl who is severely underestimating him. He puts love poems in the pages of her book and wishes it was enough to make her know how serious he is about her. They have to keep working together for the rest of the year and Keagan finds arguing fun for once. Both with baggage, he refuses to share things with her and rarely lets her glimpse at his true intellect while Robin doesn't really ever look at him unless she's forced. It's only a matter of time before the bickering between a awkward nerd and a smart jock creates one hell of a story. ----- Birdie laughs loudly, head tilted back and clutching at herself. But while her eyes are gleaming with amusement I can't help but to let my heart drop heavily in my chest. It's not a joke, I think. I love you. ----- Nudging her up at the elbow, I grin when she finally stands. "Come on, Four-eyes, we need to get a move on." "Whatever, Jock-Strap," Robin sighs, giving me a look. "I didn't know your time was so important to you." "Keep up Birdie, time isn't real."
