Disclaimer: I wrote this when I was 15 so it is a bit cliché, and many mistakes in the story:)

All Brooklyn's life, she's been more of a boy than a girl. She's only ever lived with her single dad and her three older brothers, which means she was bound to grow up more like them. 

So, when she moved all the way from New York to Tennessee, it wasn't much of a surprise until she met Alex, the one of many popular boys at the high school. Until she realized that Alex decided to make her life a living hell.

Well, that's what Brooklyn thought, at least...
___

"He leaned in and put a hand behind my head to kiss me, leaving me frozen and speechless. Almost instinctively, after a moment of processing, I stood on my tippy toes and replaced my fingers in his hair, my other hand on his neck. 

Butterflies exploded in my stomach, replacing my hunger for food, as he pressed me against a vacant wall. Without a word, he lifted me up while my legs wrapped around his waist, leaning in closer to him, even after there was no more space to fill."

He's smirking down at me as he says, "Um, you're in my seat." I laugh and say, "You realize that is the most cliche thing you could possibly say?" He looks confused so I elaborate. "It's the first day of school and you're coming up the new girl, claiming I'm in your seat. Sorry, but it's not very original." He huffs and rolls his eyes. "Get out of my seat, sunshine." "Watch it happen, pretty boy." I reply, smirking as I stuff my other earbud back in. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Madeline Lace is the youngest of six, the older five being all brothers. Her brothers love her, but due to their pathetic excuse for a father, their overprotective nature spirals into straight up helicopter parenting. Getting a fresh start by moving away from the bad memories, they're bound to run into a few new problems. One of which being their cocky, self-assured next door neighbor who isn't too discreet about taking an obvious liking towards Maddie. Her hope that he'd give up and leave her alone diminishes when his dorky personality starts to shine through, growing on her. The easy option would be to ignore the obvious attraction, but then again, it's hard to deny the undeniable. -------------------------- thank you to @meha-k for this amazing cover!

The Other Side Of The Lens by kjocelyn81

"That was weird, but I can't stop my heart beating ten times faster than it should be. Laying down on the bed I face away from the bathroom door not wanting him to look at me. I pull the white cover up to my nose and look at the wall. I hear the bathroom door open and footsteps reach closer to the bed. The covers are being moved behind me as Mateo gets ready to sleep. I reach up to turn off the lap on my nightstand, and when I do we're left in the dark abyss of my room. Mateo's arm wraps itself around my waist and pulls me back into his hard chest. He gently lifts my head up and puts it back down onto his bicep. I take in a shaky breath and close my eyes deciding it is best to just sleep. Feeling his breath on the crown of my head, I'm more relaxed than I was before and start feeling sleepier by the second. But before sleep overtakes my mind. I hear Mateo mutter something. "Good night sweetheart." ~~~~~~ Moving on. Growing up. The fears of Mateo and Veronica. Two strangers who have been attending the same high school for the past three years. They believe they are different from each other but they have much more in common than they believe. Senior year things change when Mateo finds an interest in Veronica. She decides to give him a chance and see where the friendship goes. What she doesn't realize is that she's falling for him faster than she thought...and he feels the same. Through a camera lens, Mateo shows Veronica how to live her life to the fullest and that she is not alone in this big world. Meanwhile, Veronica is helping Mateo move on from the tragic incident that occurred in his family. Having faith and trusting that their relationship will stay strong. They decide to overcome whatever is thrown in their direction, and that there is always someone on the other side of the lens. ~~~~~~

Secret Santa ✔️ by idielopez

"You had no right to do that," I snap, trying my best to out walk him. His chuckle was loud behind me and his hand griped on my forearm, stopping me. Something about his warmth gave me chills all over my body. Something I don't think I ever wanted in the first place. Especially from him and especially now. "Yes I did, and I still do." His hard grip around my arm loosened, and snaked up to lock his fingers through my hair. Oh Momma, what is happening? Being this close to him has been happening way too often for normal. Still, I couldn't break away from this close contact, I was frozen, shocked. "What makes you think that?" My question hit him with humor, and instead of fully responding, he leans his face closer to mine. The smirk on his face stayed once he noticed the affect he had on me. "Because," he whispers out pressing our bodies together. "I'm your Secret Santa," he licks his lips as if he's hungry, then continues, "I can give you anything I want to give you." His free arm wraps around my waist, and he lifts me up during the action before pressing our lips together. The main character is Kimberly. She's an accident prone person who wants nothing but to enjoy her winter. Her friends want the best for her after a terrible break up they witnessed. Every year they all hold the traditional Secret Santa. Somebody from the group believes that they are what Kimberly needs. This is about Kimberly and her crazy winter story about her not so Secret Santa.

"You turn me on," the words slipped out again. A smile invaded her plump lips. "I know I do." I leaned in to kiss her, and she kissed me back. My lips claimed hers as my tongue slipped between them. A slight moan slid out of her. I pulled her closer to me and took her to the bed, only breaking the kiss for a moment. I slid my hand against her ass and she responded by deepening the kiss. My hand climbed up her inner thigh until I reached her panties. I looked into her brown eyes. My eyebrows raised, asking a silent question. She quickly nodded. ***SHORT DESCRIPTION BELOW*** 𝑩𝒐𝒐𝒌 𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑴𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒌𝒆 𝑻𝒓𝒊𝒍𝒐𝒈𝒚. 𝑨 𝑯𝒐𝒄𝒌𝒆𝒚/𝑴𝒂𝒇𝒊𝒂 𝑹𝒐𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆 18-year-old Ebonie James is ready for college, but is scared at the same time.

The Billionaire Mafia Boss Alpha Bad Boy and Me by YYeung128

A parody... except it slowly gets less satirical as I get way too attached to the characters and turn the story into a shipping-fest ~~~~ "Why are you doing this?" I whispered. He slammed me against another locker. I could see anger, sadness, envy, happiness and lust in his teal green orbs. "Because you're mine." He smirked, gnashing his teeth against mine. ~~~~ Brynn Winters is a 17 year old good girl. She is sweeter than sugar. She is also sarcastic and quirky and innocent and naive and snarky and is a bookworm and not like other girls. She also has trauma to (barely) compensate for her lack of personality. She believes in love but she has never experienced any, until she met him. Ryder Daniels is a 18 year old bad boy. He is sweeter than sin. He is dark and mysterious and plays football (not shown in book). He smokes and drinks beer. He is a ladies' man and a player. He has walls around his heart and some dark secrets that is definitely not spoiled in the title. He does not believe in love. Brynn and Ryder are opposites. So what happens when they meet? He is not who she thinks he is. Will it end in disaster? Or will it end in love? Will it end in flames? Or will it end in a different kind of flame? As disasters come their way, will they choose love or not love? Will their secrets drive them apart? Or will they trust in each other? Join them on their journey of love. There will be love, annoying sluts, conversations that doesn't pass the Bechdel test, cliche tropes, glaring plot holes, subtly glaring plot holes, socialism, orbs, humor, secondhand embarrassment and the tiniest hints of homoeroticism. ~~~~ Reviews (aka criticisms that I'm too lazy to correct): "From a horribly done parody to horribly done leftist propaganda." "Brynn and Ryder are the most frustrating couple I've ever read." "Where humor" "You can't use parody as an excuse for bad writing, you know."

Lets Make a Pact by cheyannewritesxxo

A/N: I wrote this story when I was 15 it will definitely not the best thing you have ever read but I feel like I won't be editing it just as a reminder. This story takes place in a small town called Kingston Hill. It's the classic story of a boy meets girl, but it isn't easy. At first everything was platonic but grew. Some things happened and some things went wrong. Loss, heart ache, and plenty of emotional pain. Read on to experience the wonderful relationship of the core four, house of cards, high school royalty, known by plenty of names, you'll learn that nothing is ever perfect, difficulties happen and to this group of friends there is plenty of them. ------------ "I want you to kiss me" She said looking down at me "Is that all you want?" I questioned, my voice low and seductive. I wanted her in every way possible but I knew I couldn't tell her that because now wasn't the time. "I want you to kiss me like it's the first time in forever" She whispered breathlessly and that's exactly what I did. I stood up and dropped my hands to her waist and pulled her into me, I looked into her eyes down to her lips before leaning down to press my lips to hers. First it started slow and sweet before I grew hungry for more making my stomach explode with fireworks as I wrapped my arms around her waist and felt her arms slither around my neck. ------------ (This has switch POVs sometimes third, sometimes first it really matters how it feels with the chapter) Warning- story has some sexual suggestions, and sensitive topics such as miscarriage, depression, stalkers, and drug addiction.

It just... happened? (boyxboy) by leaa4500

Before I knew it my shirt was torn away from my torso and tossed on the floor, Charlie's doing the same. Our kiss intensified and I felt him groan against my lips. I swear to god, this boy is making out with me like his life depends on it! And that's when reality punched me in the gut... the words 'this boy' kept running through my head over and over again until it got through the thick fog of vodlka and whatever else was in those stupid drinks. I, Ace Loughty, was kissing a guy. A fucking guy. A fucking straight guy named Charlie Simmons who of course had to be one of the most popular dickheads in Meadow Ridge High. I am so unbelievably fucked. ----- 17 year old Ace Loughty was never one longing to be in the spotlight. In fact, he craved the exact opposite: being left alone. When Ace was 13, the tragic death of his younger sister Eleanor caused him to rapidly gain popularity and pitiful looks. He hated the attention. All of a sudden everyone wanted to be friends with the dead girls brother, they'd promise Ace he would never be alone that they would always be there for him, which he of course knew was untrue, they're all just hungry for attention. Sometime later the school moved onto other drama and gossip, things started to die down and people finally left Ace alone. He moved on with his life, convincing himself he was over Eleanor's death and as quick as the whole thing started, he returned to being lonely, weird, quiet nobody Ace. Just how he liked it. That is until 4 years later when he found himself sprawled out on a bed. With Charlie Simmons hovering over him. Charlie Simmons who was kissing Ace like he would die if he ever dared to stop. Which was all too true. Without kissing Ace, Charlie was as good as dead. *WARNING*: This story will contain themes of severe depression, suicide, abuse and somewhat graphic depiction of self harm. If any of these things may trigger you please rethink reading this story!! Started: January 21st 2020

Childhood Sweethearts by xx_wangkitty_xx

A triangle love Part 1 of 2 *************** I suddenly pecked his lips and smiled confidently. He just looked at me and didn't say anything. I smiled and said,"I like you Luke,and I see you for who you are". He didn't respond and I said,"Earth to Luke!Luke!". He finally got out of it and said," Huh?". I smiled and repeated myself to him,I said,"Will you be my boyfriend?",I said as I smiled softly. He nodded and I smiled brightly and kissed him passionately as I hugged him. He actually kissed me back. I could tell he hasn't been kissed like this. My heart dropped as I saw how cute he reacted. I suddenly kissed him from his lips all the way down his neck and made marks on his neck and smirked. He blushed and I said,"your mine now~",as I winked. *************** Just as I'm about to head through my house door, my phone buzzed. I checked it to see that I got a message from Ethan. My eyes welled up, because it was Brittany with another guy. I still ended up calling her to make sure it wasn't a photoshop or a lie. She picked up and said "I'm leaving you." My tears finally ran down my face. I'm glad my parents aren't home. I don't want them to see me like this. **************** When I almost walked off I felt someone grab my hand. My heart skipped a beat when I turned around. Sam was holding my hand and her lips touched mine. I had no reaction but happiness. Why is she kissing me? Without thinking I kissed her back. I moved back and looked down at the floor nervously laughing. I rubbed the back of my neck apologizing but she cut me off. " I-I'm sorry I just really like you and I-i uh didn't mean to." Sam said about to close the door in embarrassment. I grabbed her hand again pulling her into a small hug. My heart was racing and my face was really red. It was burning and I could feel it. What just happened!? I kissed Sam's cheek and me being scared I said it. ***** Small parts from the first three chapters ;)

He Doesn't Remember Me by Spellbounded5090

18-year-old Ashley Whittemore returns to her hometown from New York after her father's death. She didn't want to but she had to - because the person who broke her heart two years ago lives in this town too... So it was decided that she will just keep her head down for most of the senior year in disguise. I hope life can be that easy. *releasing an exhausted sigh* Instead, it just smacks you over the head whenever you try to do something. Am I wrong? On the first day of school she bumped into a person she was supposed to avoid for the rest of the year. *Ah. She's so good at hiding.* Zachary Hart. A heartless monster, devil incarnation, bully - hot as a heater, sexy as a satan and his body is as lickable as a vanilla ice cream. All in all - drool-worthy. The bottom lip rolls between the teeth and a little gawking with a lust-filled gaze before snapping out of the trance. No, no, no, no, No! See even in the blurb she doesn't know what to do. Still, there is another issue. Zack doesn't remember her. *dramatic gasps from all around the theatre.* Hiihhiiihhii. This will be interesting. ****** Highest Rankings adult romance; 2 teens; 182 hilarious; 25 Romantic; 691 Friends; 844 Wattpad; 624 WARNING: This story will contain mature content and strong language.
