Don't read unless you've read the last chapter of I Hate Cliche, because you will be spoiled just warning you. 

 

 

 

 

"I do," I whisper staring up into his big green eyes. Tears are forming in the corner of both of our eyes. The biggest smile is plastered on my face and the goofiest grin on his. 

The priest smiles nodding and turning to him, "Do you, Abe, take Rose to be your lawfully wedded wife in sickness and in health til death do you part?" 

"I do," Abe smiles his perfect smile that is the same of our now two year old, Eliza. She has my eyes and hair, and his everything else. She's perfect. The second half to my everything. 

"By the power invested in me by the city of Seattle I pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride," The priest takes a step back gesturing to us as Abe and I kiss. That magical kiss every girl dreams of. The sparks, butterflies, the whole sha-bang. It's perfect, he's perfect. 

We turn to look at our audience. My parents, family, and extended family all on he right side clapping with smiles on their faces. My mum is crying a little along with my dad. Uncle Harry nods at me giving me a thumbs up. Jane, Leanne, and Melanie of course are my brides maids. They all flew out to Seattle for me and I'm forever thankful. I've missed everyone dearly but as far as I can tell this is where I belong. 

Alex, he never responded. Too busy with his soccer career I guess. 

Too busy for the girl he used to love and the girl that used to love him.

COMPLETED ✔️(Editing Soon) "Marry me." I nearly spill my latte on the nicest dress I own. "Are you out of your mind?! We just met... plus I don't even like your face!" "It doesn't have to be real." I set my latte down and look at him. "No woman wants a fake marriage Mr. Mardell. Be less of a dumbass and find yourself a nice girl who'll kiss your ass even when you're ghosts." "Look, don't flatter yourself" he goes leaning back in his seat. "You just happen to fit the description I gave the press and my family. And I don't like your face either." I copy his move and lean back against my seat. "I'd rather slam my tongue in a car door, sir." The words hit him. "Good day... and good luck finding a brainless girl to marry you." I grab my purse and head towards the door. "$20,000 a week" he blurts out. I halt and whirl around. "What?" "I'll give you $20,000 every week for a month..." He walks out from behind his desk. "... if you agree to do this with me." $20,000 every week for an 'I do'? Which happens to be fake too? $80,000 in a month to play dress up for one of the youngest and richest CEO's in the world? "So what do you say?" His silky voice swims through my thoughts. "You wanna get hitched for some money? You know your family needs it." He just had to play the poor family card. "So do we have a deal? Or I should go on and keep making you lose your jobs before you even start?" He had a smirk on his face. God, I hate him! But that money could help us a whole lot. I glare at him and extend a hand towards him. "Deal." ✄--------------------------------------------------------- No one ever realizes the implications of messing around with the famous 'Always and Forever' promise until they're cornered with no escape... except the one through their own hell. Join Noelle and Keith as they embark on this intriguing adventure to find themselves and escape the threats. #1 in deceit - 17/06/2023 #1 in graduate -14/02/2023 ~Ako
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
Loving him is Red✔️ by marsntalwrites

Irish gasped when someone suddenly grabbed her hand. Her lips parted. In five years their paths crossed again. Red still couldn't believe that Irish had changed. He suddenly remembered how he used to treat her and how he rejected her as his little sister. Irish was only fifteen years old at that time but she already had many cruel experiences from his older brother. Red hardly recognized her in her new shape and she grew up to be a very beautiful woman and she looked different in his eyes. Irish has changed a lot since the day left then. Irish raised an eyebrow on him. "How are you my dear sister?" She felt the strange tune of his voice. Is he mocking me? It's funny to think that he used to hate me as his lil sister and now he calls me that way?! "Let me go!" Then he released my hand. I rolls my eyes and turned my back on him. My hands were shaking. She also couldn't stop admiring his older brother because he also changed a lot. Red became even more handsome. Irish was about to leave but Red grabbed her hand again. She swallowed as her heart beats fast. No! I''m not afraid of him. "Don't touch me!" I'm so annoyed! "I hardly recognize you, you impress me." Her lips parted. Red grinned at me. "Don't get thrilled, you're not my type and you're still the trash I used to know." Irish tried took her hands on his grip. "Let go of my fucking hand brother?" That's where he finally let go of her. It's funny to think that calling him brother still has an effect on him. She smiled sweetly at Red before leaving him frozen in that place. She was no longer the Irish he used to punished before. Irish won't allow him to do that to her again.

*This story contains two pov's, the leading pov is female* "Andy" she signed quietly. "Fuck Lola, don't do this to me" I gulped. "Do what?" She smiled innocently, moving her hand up and tangling her delicate fingers in my wet hair. Chills ran through me as I had given in to the games we were playing, dropping my head further into her intoxicating touch. She took that as an invitation. Little kisses were left on my neck, and my jaw, then back to my neck. She played this game of teasing until I decided I can't wait anymore. Our lips connected, our tongues danced together, intertwined. I'm hers. This woman had more power over me then I'd like to admit. I'm utterly and completely consumed by her, my heart is hers, my brain, hers. I am willing to do anything so that she will be happy forever. I'll protect her by any means necessary. I'm yours my Lolita, only yours..... * * * Our love story started out- badly. Eva and Andy didn't notice each other the first time they met, or the second time, nor the third. When they finally encountered, they couldn't stand being in the same room. I know what you must think, "if they hate each other so much, how can this be a love story?". What can I say? It was love at first sight, or more like hate at first sight, but you know what they say, the line between love and hate is as thin as a Victoria Secret supermodel. Trigger warnings: - SA - Violence - Alcohol use - Abuse

Savant Awards Winner #16 in mystery romance on 10.08.2022 #14 in womenpower When 29-year-old Hannah married 36-year-old Albert, one of the richest people in the world she was already numb. After marriage, she also got a rebellious teenage stepson as a side gift. How will these 3 misfit people live together under the same roof and become an awkwardly sweet family? ********************************************* "Why don't you give me and yourself a chance?" He asked. "Maybe because I do not have anything else to live for" She replied "Then let's build things to love a lifetime for." He replied with determination. "I won't think of you as my real mother, but don't worry, I'll be a good son" Chimed in her stepson. Love is not always sweet, at first sight, and during college or office. Love can also be encountered by chance in the most pessimistic scenarios. It can be your last salvation when you have nothing to hold on to. She was already dead inside, so the addition of two virtual people did not bother her already stagnant life much. But the peace did not last for long. She wanted to get through life quietly but life had other plans for her. With the addition of this 2 cold-looking but soft-hearted people in her life she slowly regained some purpose to live. She started the things which she had left before and stood on her own two feet. Her husband complained one day. "I heard about something you mentioned outside, that men only care more when they're older? So? Are you complaining that I'm old now?" Hannah said, "Wait, listen to me!" **************** The story will be long and detailed with lots of family moments and some dry humour added in here and there. This is not the cliché love at first sight story, but it will be very sweet. Updates:weekly.

'Bad Boys Ain't Good But Good Boys Ain't No Fun.' "Don't look, but it's the king of being horny behind you." I automatically looked behind me, making Autumn scoff at me. She shook her head. "Ace Ford." Autumn's face retorted in disgust. "Every girl's 'dream guy'." Her fingers made quotation marks. "Let me just tell you Jane, that boy is disgusting." Ace leaned against the railing of the bleachers. He pushed his dark brown hair back and smirked as he talked to one of the blonde cheerleaders. "How so?" I questioned, turning back towards her. She raised an eyebrow. "Just look at the guy, doesn't he just scream 'I won't have sex with you and immediately ditch you unless you have dubble D's and the IQ of a goldfish?'" "He can't be that bad." I said, causing her to snort. ___________ Warning: Very Mild cursing. That's why I'm making it PG13 guys. Read at own risk. Hope you guys like the story. ____________ 2k16 edit: Howdy, how are you doing this godawful day? Burning in hell for your sins? Same! Great. Now that the formalities are out the window I'd just like to say... WHY AM I SUCH A DISGRACE TO MANKIND. What is this writing /-~-\ oh goodness gracious. How does this doodoo have 6k reads *siiiiiiiigh* My writing has improved at ton (I am assuming) and this was my first book so please, pretty pretty please don't hate me for all the mistakes and plot holes. I- I am very ashamed myself. And Engelesh is NOT my first language either so haaaaa, life. Mistakes were made so don't kill me. Okay, that's all for me. I still hope you somehow enjoy the story nonetheless and have a GREAT existence! ______ 2020 update So, I started writing this when I was 11. I am 18 now and haven't edited this since I was 15. I hope that says enough. Try to ignore the spelling and grammar mistakes!
