"So, are you in?" he asked, his tone gentle, but the patience in his voice was slipping.
She took a moment to mull it over, and finally met his piercing blue eyes.
"Yes," she replied, with a shaky breath, and he let out a contented sigh.
"But under 1 condition," she began, her voice unwavering, "you can't fall in love with me."
* * *
All her life, the one thing Maddie knew best was saying goodbye. Due to the fact that her mother was a travel agent, and her father was the head of an international corporation, they were always on the move.
When Maddie's parents are given a case for which they can't move for a certain period of time, Maddie is forced to adapt to the wild lifestyle that LA has to offer.
Soon she finds herself a bit overwhelmed. With balancing her new life, and trying to get the hang of living like a normal teenager.
But once she steps foot into the notorious, posh, one and only Danforth Prep., the crazy doesn't end.
When the "Queen B", Arabelle Smith, finds Maddie a threat to her and Zac, the boy she's been hopelessly crushing on forever, her and her posse go out of their way to do anything and everything to make Maddie's life a living hell.
The thing is, the second Zac lays his eyes on Maddie, something, almost like some magnetic force, makes him want to get to know her, and maybe even be more than just friends.
So when an idea so crazy pops into Zac's head, he can only hope she'll agree.
But if saying goodbye is Maddie's signature move, will the plan be worth it in the end?
"Okay, you know what? You're such a jackass and I never should have kissed you," I say. Colton stands up. His green eyes are just as angry as mine are.
"Then why did you?" he asks.
"I don't know!" I yell. "Why did you kiss me back?"
"Hey, you kissed me," Colton says.
"We already established that! God! It's like talking to a wall. Whatever I say just fucking bounces right off of you!" I yell. "Do you have any idea how maddening you are?" Colton looks at me.
"You don't think you're infuriating?" Colton asks. I narrow my eyes. He starts to walk towards the door. I grab the M&M's and chuck them at Colton. He whips around, his eyes blazing green.
"Where the fuck are you going? We're talking!" I yell, crossing my arms. He rubs the back of his neck where the M&M's hit him.
"You wanna talk? Fine. Let's talk," Colton says. "You're obviously messed up from all of the shit your mom did."
"Maybe I am! It's not your fucking business!" I pause. "Why do you even care? You're just some manwhore, right? A fuckboy?" Colton laughs dryly.
"Is that what you think I am?" he asks. He takes a step closer to me. I'm two seconds away from kissing him again.
Andy Reed-Collins has never fit in. With both of her parents being doctors, she's grown up in the hospital and has more friends there than she does at her high school. She's made it through most of her Senior year when she meets Colton Samson.
Colton's bad for for her in every way. He's a nortorious manwhore who uses girls. But, when they become Biology partners, everything changes for Andy.
As she spends more time with Colton, she can't deny their growing attraction to each other. The harder she tries to resist it, the more she's drawn to him. With his endlessly green eyes and knowing smirk, Colton sees through all of her walls.
But just as Andy and Colton find each other, he turns out to be nowhere near perfect as he seems. Something's standing between her and Colton, and she's left with a choice.
Will she choose him?
