"What?" I snapped at him.

"Your different and I like you for that," his voice became softer.

"Yeah right! You probably say that to everyone."

"Nah, just you sprinkles," he whispers.

18 parts Ongoing Mature
The story of Chloe McGladdery is anything but a good one. From horrible and traumatic experiences, to loneliness and isolation from the world, she's experienced just about everything, both good (well goodish) and bad. Mostly bad. But there's one thing that Chloe has never had the chance to experience; love. She's never known what it feels like to look at someone and feel like that one person is the reason for your entire existence, to look at someone and feel that only that person can make you feel whole again, stitch you back up again at the broken seams. But that all changes when she transfers to Silverlake High School, home to the Tigers. A place she absolutely dreads. All she wants is to finish high school as quickly and quietly as she can, and finally get out there, into the big wide world where she can show everyone who she really is, the girl she's been hiding from the world for so long. But the one thing she doesn't expect is for people to come along and accomplish that, just way sooner than she originally planned. Chloe's path to greatness and success has definitely not been an easy one, and she's lived through horrors that most people will never experience themselves. But journeys as tough as those are what make people into the best versions of themselves, and her future just became a whole lot more better. She just hasn't realised it yet. * Meet Chloe McGladdery, the most sassy geek you'll ever come across. She chooses to live in the shadows and loves it. And now, meet Kai Thompson, just your typical down-to-earth, sweet, heartbroken guy that Roxy, the school's 'queen-bee' just can't wait to get her hands on. He avoids people, is quite reserved and held-back, and can be pretty sweet when he wants to be. But what happens when a broken guy meets a sassy girl? Well, there's only one way to know the answer to that question.

The two tried to dampen the flames of their burgeoning attraction for each other but not before they got caught and were the talk of the town for months. After the fall out, Maddie moved away to try and start her life over and not be known as the girl who got caught doing it with her 'brother' at prom. She hasn't seen her family in ages and intends to keep things that way. Jacob, on the other hand, has worked hard to accomplish everything he's ever dreamed of.

HERE WE MEET AGAIN

16 parts Complete

On the day of our school farewell, I decided it was my last chance to confess my feelings. Summoning all my courage, I proposed to him. But just as he was about to respond, I panicked and ran away. I thought I would never see him again. But life rarely turns out how you expect, right? 7 years later we meet again. What am I supposed to do now? Should I run away like before? Will our friendship turn into rivalry? And after all these years, would Ethan finally give me the answer I once longed for? ------------------------------- Their journey began again not with the intensity of young love, but with the steady warmth of two people rediscovering each other, older, wiser, and ready for the love they hadn't realized was waiting for them all along. Here they meet again, not just by chance-but perhaps, by fate.
