nefelibata (n.) - one who lives in the clouds of their own imagination or dreams, or one who does not obey the conventions of society, literature, or art.
Lena Wilson has her mind set on herself and what she wants to accomplish. Everyone stays well out of her way, knowing that she says it like it is and strays from the narrative of "fitting in".
She defies the rules of society and completely separates herself from the small minded people in her town. Although she's proud of who she is, it comes with some side effects.
Due to her need to be different, she is a bit of a loner, a dark soul with a wild imagination.
When the new boy, Carson Foxx, strolls into town with his head held high and his cockiness through the roof, he doesn't realize that Lena is not the kind of girl that you can grab at a party and go. He takes this as a challenge, a mission.
This is nefelibata.

[ SHOELACES: A NON-LINEAR LOVE STORY ] [ COMPLETED - 81K WORDS ] [ 2021 WATTYS SHORTLIST ] Darrion Gubart thinks he's a loser, a loner, a musical theatre nerd, a math addict, and almost anything else except for the main character. As a high school senior, he can hardly hold in his excitement to move off to a prestigious college and start a new life for himself. That is if he gets in, of course, with the constant swirl of doubt and anxiety swirling in his mind. Luckily, he has his one friend, Jazmine Lockart, who cares for him along the way. The only issue is Jazmine would rather party with her soccer team than spend a night with Darrion watching Dance Mom Compilations (though, she loves him enough to do just that). Darrion has a relatively supportive family too. Emphasis on the "relatively," for almost everybody except his family knows that Darrion likes boys. But Darrion loves them, so he decides to ignore that small piece of information and focus on the good aspects, like their weekly board games nights. Truthfully, Darrion has almost made the fact he likes boys a side note in his own life, mainly because of the lack of first-hand experience to which he can refer. Well, that's until he meets Santiago de Rosa, the man of Darrion's dreams (to put it simply). And, for the first time in Darrion's life, things seem to be looking up. Well, that's until somebody dies.Complete
Quiet Not Innocent | ✔︎
"You look good wearing my last name." My jaw slacks open and the bell rings then, him smiling a lopsided grin before grabbing his bag and strutting out of the room. »»----- -----«« When Aspen Wilson's father passes away, she must go live with her mother 1,000 miles away and confront her about what happened 5 years ago when they got separated. She has a simple goal to ignore her guardians, finish senior year of school, and go back to her small town, but those plans are quickly flipped upside down by old secrets and a certain quiet boy at her new school who isn't as innocent as he seems. Saint Black was the kid everyone ignored. He was quiet, private, and alone with his books most of the time. He never paid attention to his school or his classmates, but when a new girl comes to town, he can't help but be drawn to her. A bad history with females and a secret he can't afford anyone to find out, he knows he's playing a risky game. But for her, it's worth it. »»----- -----«« HIGHEST RANKS: #1 in doodle #1 in quietboy #1 in humor #1 in funny #1 in cute romanceComplete
The Revenge Wife
COMPLETE Let me make this crystal clear, because you don't seem to understand," he said, his voice deceptively calm, but laced with venom. "I paid for you to be my wife. That means you do what I say. You're mine now." He flicked a check toward me, and it fluttered to the ground between us. I couldn't look away from him, though my chest tightened in panic. My hands shook as I fought back tears, refusing to let him see me break. But he wasn't finished. "What did you expect?" he scoffed, eyes narrowing. "This is what gold diggers like you get. Money has a price, and now you're paying yours. Enjoy it, wife." Without another word, he turned and walked away, leaving me standing in the massive, empty living room-speechless, breathless, and drowning in disbelief. I never expected this. © MaryRose 2018.

The Art of Breaking Hearts ✓
[Highest Rank; #3 in Humor 3/27/17] --- I was unable to keep myself from blushing. "I'm not his girlfriend." "Yet." Ryder and Benjamin said simultaneously. "Oh, so the conceitedness runs in the family?" I asked with a roll of my eyes. "I'm afraid so. Now, tell me more about yourself." "Well, I like playing soccer a lot. And if I were to choose between my books and human beings, then I choose books. Also, I think your brother is annoying and has too big of an ego. But wanna know something?" He nodded. I stopped the car at the traffic light and turned back to him. Leaning into his ear, I whispered loud enough for Ryder to hear, "I think I like him." --- The art of breaking hearts is an inscrutable, prepossessing, abstract art. Never ever will you go through with breaking someone's heart without having your own broken. And it would be very eccentric if one did not go through the process of having their own heart shattered into millions of pieces when trying to do the same to another. Unfortunately, I learned that the hard way. --- [extended description inside] Copyright ©2016 sadreadingchick All rights reserved.Complete
The Perks Of Falling For Your Bestfriend✔
"In vain have I struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you." -Pride and Prejudice. -Jane Austen. Allison Waters is a girl as simple as they come, atleast that's what she believed. And to be honest she did enjoy a simple life for the past two years. All she wanted to pass her senior year in peace and be happy in life. What she wasn't expecting was to be back in town with a certain Greek God of a Devil acting more annoying than ever... Calling him tall dark and handsome would be the understatement of the century. He is the arrogant quarterback and one of the most popular guys in shcool. He is as I mention previously the reincarnation of the devil in his actions and a Greek God in the looks department, with startling blue eyes, a sinful body and gorgeous hair, who may at different times define the words Cocky and Adorable. Quite a contrast isn't it? Well that's who he is, or for that matter how we all are... a bit of both. Ashton Fobes is Alli's bestfriend, well Ex-Bestfriend, he is also her arch nemisis, her sworn enemy, but he is also the only one who can make her push her limits and challenge her in ways she never thought possible. Soon they were playing with Cupid's arrows trying to set up the unlikeliest couple imaginable, but what they seemed to have forgotten was Fate's wierd sense of humor and so it turned out while they were playing with Cupid's Arrows, he was aiming them at these two instead. Ps: I have now unpublished most of the chapters. Highest Ranking: 30, 35, 50 in teen fiction. 32, 66 in ChickLit. 46, 47, 78 in humor.Complete
