"Sometimes, the complex and terrifying things in life are the only tangible things you'll have for a while. Don't take them for granted, because when everything else crumbles around you, you never want to let go of love."
Atticus Phillips, Damien Bouras, Kamile Boyd, Nyla Audette, and Riley Antonov all began as freshmen at Massachusetts College of Art and Design in the fall of 2017. Thanks to the pairing of Riley and Damien as roomates along with the lucky aligning of lunch schedules, these five art majors were brought into eachother's lives, for better or worse, in many ways...
They all are going through the simultaneously best and worst times in their lives, and they might as well each have a few extra backs to fall on if things go south, whether "south" be an endeavour into a romance, or a relapse into forgotten habits.

It's Always Been You
REWRITTEN Fia Romero thought her life was perfectly content - until she met Wes Hamilton, her boyfriend Nate's devilishly handsome dorm mate. While Fia had been blissfully ensconced in a committed three-year relationship, Wes didn't believe in tying himself down. For him, college was a buffet of options to be explored and experienced to the fullest without the constraints of commitment. Their unlikely friendship blossomed from an outrageous proposition - Wes wanted Fia to be his matchmaker and find him a girl worth forsaking his wild ways for. What started as an innocent game between polar opposites soon ignited an undeniable chemistry that neither could ignore, no matter how hard they tried. What started as match-making turned into a fake-dating relationship, leading to confused feelings and room-fulls of tension. With each coy smile, each heated exchange of banter, the lines between reality and reckless desire began to blur. Suddenly, Fia found herself questioning everything she thought she knew about love, commitment, and the person she believed was her soulmate. A little game of playing Cupid turns into something more and maybe, the person who has always been the one for you was standing right under your nose the whole time.Complete![πππππππ ππ [ππ+]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/370565937-256-k970397.jpg)

"Are you crazy?! Piss off!" Sam Harrison screams. "You can't turn down an opportunity like this, sweetheart. I know you'd die to be seen with me as your boyfriend. Well, fake boyfriend but no one needs to--" "No uhm id rather not be seen with a conceited douche. But thanks for the offer." "A conceited douche that every single girl in this school adores, yes." Football captain Nate Hadley corrected. "Not every girl." Sam had started walking away but stopped abruptly when Nate spoke. "I know you've been dreaming to study in Hadley University for college. Be mine for a month and you will get what you desire." That statement definitely changed Sam Harrison's life forever by making her decide the craziest decision yet.
