Looking at him from across the cafeteria my heart just stops. He bites his lower lip slightly as he reads the following words off of his new book, adjusting his hair from time to time.
How can someone you've spent all of high school trying to forget still be the one to hold your heart?..
Stop staring!
I look away and my eyes focus on something else... He's still the one I love. After all this time. I can't change that..
But he hates you.
I wince at the thoughts coursing through me.
You don't know that for sure..
Oh who am I kidding? Of course he hates me. If I was him I'd hate me too. A frown makes its way onto my face.
Maybe just one more peek..
I glance back at him only to see his blue eyes no longer on the pages of his book but on me. We lock eyes and everything else disappears for a moment.
My brown ones widen in shock. Shit! I try to look away but my eyes stay focused on him, and only him.
..Then something amazing happens..
He smiles.

(This is sort of like the prologue. It is not in the book though. I wrote this so that you all can read it and see what's in store for this book. And I suck at descriptions so this is all I could think of. Also I curse a lot so yeah)

COMPLETED!!! here's a snip bit ! "Hey Belle" he said with a cheeky smile. I look up and give him the fakest smile i can put on "did my constant harasser also become my stalker?" i said referring to him saying my name before looking back at my computer. He sat down next to me. "Not a stalker or a harasser just an acquaintance" he said before continuing "also i got your name from your friend, also let her know i do not want her please and thank you" he said before getting up "she doesn't want you either" i responded not moving my eyes from the screen "definitely not what she said last night" he said flashing me a smile which i rolled my eyes to. I was sincerely praying he was grabbing his stuff to go so i wouldn't have another interaction with him, but of course not. His friend left and he came back and sat by me. "I'm trying to do homework can you please go somewhere else" i said in a heavily annoyed tone. "See i would, but one i think you like me too much to actually want me to leave" he said before i cut him off "i don't" he laughed before continuing "this next part is really gonna suck then" he said pausing obviously waiting for a reaction out of me which i don't give him. "fine. you're no fun. we have to schedule our tutoring times" he said before nudging me "i'm your first student to tutor surprise!" he said in a tone that i can only describe as annoying because that's all he is, is annoying. I look up at his face that's gleaming with joy purely because i'm annoyed.Complete![Only You [DISCONTINUED]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/23820209-256-k638528.jpg)
Only You [DISCONTINUED]
"Oh Logan," the girl moaned. Logan looked up smiling at the girl, but then he caught sight of me. His smile disappeared. His mouth opened to call my name, but I slammed the door shut and ran back to Drew and Luke. We were almost out the house when someone grabbed my wrist. I turned around and saw Logan. "Let me explain Dani." "You don't need to . We're through," I spat and punched him as hard as I could. I struck him in the nose. I was satisfied that it was enough to break it. Drew and Luke helped me into the car. "Let me see your knuckles," Luke asked reaching out. I winced as he lightly touched the area around my knuckles where the skin had split. His ice cold hands helped the throbbing.Complete

No Broken-hearted girl (Crushing Hard Series Book 2)
Dear: Diary 02/04/2013 Then Kevin smiled at me. And I felt my heart beat for the first time in a very long time. All he did was smile, and suddenly this very dead heart of mine started beating very fast. The beating was so loud, I felt it ringing in my ears, and reverberating all over my body. His eyes bore into me, and I felt my cheeks heat up. Everything faded around me, I forgot that I was in class, and that there was a lecturer infront prattling on about Business Management. Everyone just ceased to exist. I don't know what it was about him, he wasn't the most handsome guy I'd ever seen, he wasn't the best dressed, but it was the confidence in his smile. His lips had curved into a closed lip smile that spoke so many things. I don't know what it was saying, but it was saying something and I had a feeling that he knew that his smile was bringing this girl back to life. I felt the inkling of a spark of attraction(okay, it wasn't an inkling, it was a whole lot of attraction), my back straightened and my body quivered with excitement. No, Diary! Not THAT kind of excitement, I mean the kind of excitement you feel when there's someone you know could be watching you and when there's someone new to crush on. I'd been floating around for so long, trying to avoid feeling anything because I didn't want to deal with the heartache of losing Scott and now on a random Tuesday afternoon, I was slammed back down to earth and I was suddenly experiencing all sorts of emotions. And then one thing became crystal clear... I was broken-hearted girl no more.Complete

Knock Him Off His Feet
His finger lightly touches the bottom of my chin, and he pushes my face upwards so that I'm looking into his eyes. Eyes that are solely on my lips. I can't help it. I bite them.

"I want to bite those lips of yours... so badly." ~ Xavier is a brawler. It's an absolute shame really, because Delta hates violence. She hates Xavier too. Or at least she thinks she does.

And then all at once, desire comes crashing down on her like a tidal wave. ~ Start: October 5th 2017 End: July 7th 2018 WARNING: I wrote this book before I realized how typical and cliché character stereotypes were, so I apologize deeply if you cringe while reading this, but thank you boatloads if you do decide to anyways.

His Slut Of The Week || Wattys 2016
I smiled at him but tears were starting to blur my vision together. "I hate you." His smile faltered and he looked taken back, "Not like that, Drake. I hate you because you make me cry. You're supposed to beat up the guys who make me cry, not be one of them." "But they are happy tears, right?" he clarified. I smiled and nodded my head, before gripping his shirt, pulling his body against mine. "I'll never make you cry because you're sad, understood? I'm never leaving you." I didn't respond this time, I just sat in his lap, holding his torso and he played with my hair. "I don't know if I can let you in yet Drake," I told him truthfully, the one thing I had been dreading telling him. "I know. But I'll never hurt you like the others have. I-"he cut himself off and took a deep breath. "Riley?" he moved me away from his shirt. I looked at him in the eyes and say an emotion. One I hadn't seen in a long time and one I haven't seen in his eyes before. "Can I kiss you?" __________________ Drake was the player of the school. Everyone knew his name. Riley was the nerd of the school. No one knew her name. Complete opposites but for some reason, opposites seemed to attract. Riley knew that Drake had a new girl every week, but she felt like she could change him. And maybe she could. Maybe she'd be different. *Based on a true story*Complete
