This story is about a fall from grace.
Literally.
The last thing Grace Jensen expected to receive from tumbling down a flight of stairs were tutor sessions with the schools mysterious new guy. Nico Dames.
The rumors about him are extensive. Ranging from he's part of a black-market-organ-snatching ring, to he's training to be the new head of the Russian Mafia.
His arrogant attitude and evasion to all the questions Grace asks are almost enough to turn her away.
Almost.
But the pull Nico has on her is undeniable. Something about those crystal blue eyes has Grace wondering if maybe he doesn't want to be as off-putting as he seems.
Maybe,
just maybe,
He only needs someone to be his saving grace.

"Nice foot work." a voice said. I lost control of the ball and tripped over my feet. I groaned loudly as my butt landed hard on the ground and the ball on my head. "Ow..." I muttered as a roar of laughter fell beside me. I looked up to see- "Hazel!" I exclaimed glaring at the blonde haired beauty. "Y-you... should'v-ve s-seen your f-face..." Jayden hysterically laughed as he clutched his stomach. I snapped out of my daze and glared at him. After a good 10 seconds of him not stopping I decided to take matters into my own hands. I grabbed his ankles and pulled him down with me. Seems like a reasonable idea, NOT. He came crashing down on top of me. Let's just say, I think we might both need new teeth... ------------------------Complete

Except, she's not that typical and he's not that much of a bad boy. *** "If I told you that I care about you, more than anyone in your life does, would you believe me?" He asked me, his jaw clenched. I could tell he was furious. Yet somehow, I wasn't scared of him. "No" I shook my head bravely. "If I told you,'' He tried again, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath before continuing.''That you make me so fucking mad, I want to punch a fucking wall. What would you say?" He had me trapped now, my back painfully colliding with the wall behind me. I gasped at the impact, looking up into his icy grey eyes. They were cold, emotionless. As always. "Do it!" I dared him with the last ounce of courage I had left in me. The sound of his fist smashing through the wall right next to my head, made my ears ring for a brief moment. I opened my mouth to speak again, shaking slightly, only for him to pull away and leave me standing there alone. ____ !!Warning!!
