Scarlett Hughes had everything figured out.
Past tense.
Ever since her beyond perfect boyfriend, Christopher Gosse, dumped her out of the blue, Scarlett's not so sure about what she wants. Except that she wants to win Christopher back, but why?
Her friends think it's all for superficial reasons, and they may be right. So, they push Scarlett to look past the surface of people, which leads her to Toby Capitani.
Toby's an emo loner who is the exact opposite of Christopher, and Scarlett and Toby can't stand each other. There's something that keeps drawing her into him, but Scarlett's pride won't let her admit it.
What's her obsession with being perfect all about, anyway? Maybe it's time for her to get back in touch with her parents to find out.

"You, uh, plan to go out like that?" Furrowing my eyebrows, I cast my gaze downwards, and that's when I remembered I had changed into pajamas after my date. My face heated up - it was embarrassing to unintentionally let Trevor see my pajama set that was, unfortunately, adorned with little cartoon sharks. "I..." I mumbled, my eyes still glued to the sharks swimming around the navy blue fabric, hoping that maybe, just maybe, one would swallow me whole right here and now. I was tense, the atmosphere was awkward, but Trevor, being the smooth player that he was, chuckled, and the mere joyful sound tickled my ears and brought the smile back to my face. "Go change," he said, nudging me to go back inside my house. "Alright, I'll just be a second." × × × 17-year-old smitten Morgan Darhk's world revolves around her best friend's brother, Archer Hastings. The only thing is, he doesn't know she exists - or at least that's what she tells herself and what HE tells HIMself. Morgan thinks she's the only one going through a limerence when it's FAR from the truth. Meet Addison Hastings, Trevor Parks, Chase Humphrey, Hanna Abrams, Eric Carter, and Killian Adler, all fellow victims of the unrelenting limerence. Swept up in a world of betrayals, drama, lies of omission, secrets, and most importantly, passion, these high schoolers go through the one thing everyone has experienced at least once in his or her life, as if a rite of passage: the unrequited love. As Morgan tries to find out what - or more importantly, WHO - she wants in life, she discovers a deeper sense in all this BS... ...that love - or at least limerence - blinds us all to see what's really been in front of us this whole time. × × × ~ Blinded by Limerence ~ 09/01/20 - 07/15/22Complete

how far would you go . . . for someone you love? ♔ Levi steps forward, placing himself between me and Jack. Like he's protecting me from him. But I don't need protecting, certainly not from Jack. "Who do you think you are, dude?" Levi spits, getting in Jack's face. "Look, Scarlett was just helping me out with a proj-" "I'm not your dude," Jack bites, and I want to tear my hair out of my head. This is going downhill very fast. Jack turns to me. "Scar, we need to talk," he says lowly. Then loud enough for Levi to hear, "So can you please get this kid to leave." "Hey, you don't get to come in here and start ordering her around," Levi says harshly. "You don't control her." "And you think that you do?" Jack spits. ♔ When Scarlett moved off to college, she hoped to start anew and find her way in this world alone. Two problems.
