Love is Kind
Love does not Envy
Love does not boast....
Is love enough! 

When Tionne and Justice met in the Fall of 1991 neither of them would have ever imagined what they'd become to each other. Tionne was on the verge of signing the biggest deal of her life. Yet she was still caught up in wanting to live the street life, joining the 88's gang was the end all be all and she'd do anything to get in. Little does she know that being an 88 isn't all it's cracked up to be and to get in she has to do somethings she ain't 100% cool with, but it's what she wants. At least that's what she thinks.  
Justice on the other hand is just trying to survive her senior year in high school. She deals with a lot as a result of her tumultuous childhood. Her father was murder by a rival gang member when she was 12. Her mother turned to drugs to cope with his death leaving her and siblings on their own by the time she was 15.  Love was never in her plans either in fact Justice didn't want to live and she'd tried on multiple occasions to make the pain end, but each time something would stop her.
The last thing or rather person to stop her was Tionne. There was something different about Tionne, she wasn't like anyone she'd ever met before. Tionne taught her the true meaning of love! She also taught her that everything isn't always a perfect fairy tale and that some times happy ever after's don't exist. 
They started as friends and progressed lovers, what happens when their relationship is put to the test.  
Stardom 
Jealously
Infidelity

Will Justice and Tionne's love stand the test of time or will it parish before it even begins?

Not even when he shouts at her and hits her. Jessie's best friend, Kolleen, can't stand seeing her in that situation. With a bit of convincing - and the worst beating she'd ever received - Jessie agrees to move into an apartment with Kolleen. But not long after, Jessie is scared the worst of her nightmares will soon become a reality. Josh goes missing, and suddenly Jessie would swear she's being followed. One night changes everything, and one person soon changes Jessie's outlook. A responding officer from that fateful night begins to seek her out, at first claiming it's part of his job. As she spends time with her new friend outside of his job, she starts realizing that her feelings are evolving. After being abused for over a year, Jessie is terrified she's falling in love. What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet. She makes up her mind that if he is falling, and if he does love her, he'll wait for her to be ready, and if she loves him, she won't let herself hurt him.

Book 1 of the "Used to Be" Series Scarlett Fisher: the school's resident mean girl. Beautiful, smart (but doesn't let people know), charismatic, confident (or at least that's what everyone thinks.) The truth is, she's scared, Scared that one day people will see past her smile and charm, and see the person she really is on the inside. Scared that someone will remember who she used to be. ~•~ Now I know I seem like a bitch, and your probably thinking I'm your stereotypical mean girl, but I wasn't always like this, back when high school first started. I had a best friend who I thought I would be friends with forever. I was shy and timid, and I was foolish enough to believe what people told me. Back then everyone knew me as Arora. After the incident I decided to stop going by my first name, I had also learned that being mean, and not taking anything form anyone was the only way to get people to treat you with respect. ~•~ Arora Fisher: the girl most people didn't notice until they needed help with homework, the girl who was voted most likely to disappear and no one would notice. The girl who her believed in the good in others, who wanted to just give people a chance, no matter how many red flags. The girl who was lost to tragedy. ~•~ "We'll be broken together." He try's to smile, but he can't manage it and I nod, knowing how much pain he feels. "We'll be broken together." I whisper, after that we sit there, in an empty silence, neither of us wanting to be the first one to speak again, because it feels off, like the sound of our own voices might somehow break our hearts more.
