"What the hell are those!?"

"They're lights, idiot."

"Why are you hanging them around everywhere?"

"I'm trying to brighten up your dark soul."

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Jo.  Simple name; a simple girl.  
Atlas.  Strange name; a dangerous boy.

Jo wants to live a cosy and quaint life, with a lively job and agreeable boyfriend.  However, the reality of her situation isn't quite as surreal; she works at a dingy hotel and her love life only consists of a crush on the cute receptionist who used to be hopelessly in love with her.

Atlas is stuck in a world where death is embraced.  His life consists of drug deals, lazy hook-ups and manipulation.  He is smart and decisive; messing with people's heads until they are quivering at his feet.  

Despite his reputation, a mistake is made during the process of one of his jobs, leading him to the apartment of a simple girl, who soon realises she may be more involved in his murderous world than she first assumed.

Life is short and the choice is yours:  fairy lights or bullet wounds?

She looks up at me, taking a step forward and smiling slightly, "How can I ever get hurt when I have you here to protect me?" "But you could have gotten hurt," I murmur softly, hanging my head and feeling my shoulders drop, the tension seeping from my body. "No. Stop," She cuts me off sternly but tenderly, "Don't talk like that, Reece. I'm okay, you're okay, we're okay," She speaks softly, reaching her hand up to gently brush her thumb over my cheek, just under the cut that's there. "We're okay," I repeat, taking a small step closer to her. She nods with a small smile, moving her hand down from my cheek and instead placing the palm of her hand on my chest, right over my heart. I know she can feel how fast my heart is beating. I just don't know why it's doing that. ~ Reece Carter is the bad boy of Northwood High. He smokes and he fights.

Highest rank #27 in Teen Fiction. Written by @apricitys. _ _ _ "What is this?" He asked, not even bothering to look at the canvas in front of me. Instead, his eyes were locked in mine. I swallowed my saliva, chills running down my spine. I felt my palms getting sweaty as my legs nervously started bouncing up and down. Without giving me time to answer, he took a step closer to me, eyes still locked in mine. Each time he inched closer, I used my right foot to slowly push myself and the stool back. It seemed to be the only option to get away from him; until he forced his hands below the sides of my thighs, holding the stool in place. He released a soft chuckle as he eyed me from my eyes, down to my lips. "You're beautiful," he said. From his voice, I couldn't tell if he was being serious, or messing around. It sounded sincere, however there was a smirk on his face. The smirk that he always has on his face when he's found an amusing target. Then he averted his attentions back to my eyes. His expressions softened up the moment his eyes landed back on mine. His smirk disappeared. I cleared my throat and broke the eye contact. I looked down at my palms as I rubbed the sweat against my jeans, "What do you want, Landon?" I asked, almost whispering. I felt his hand brushing against my right cheek, as he tilts my chin up to look back at him. His messy brown hair, his light blue eyes and his pink soft lips were just centimeters from mine. I felt his breath lingering on the upper tip of my lip. In a panic, I pressed my palms against his chest and push him off. He stumbled back with a surprised look on his face. "Aubrey." _ _ _ Landon Carthy is an arrogant boy, who knowns to have absolutely no care in the world. Making girls suffer feels great to him. But what happens when a new girl in town becomes one of his victims? Will she allow him to walk upon her like all the other girls do?

A collection of short stories 1) THABISA Tunde is gay, and Jabulani has his eyes on him. Angry eyes, filled with weird desires. All his life, Tunde has felt bound with shackles, longing to taste freedom. Real freedom---to walk down the streets, smiling, with a regular heartbeat, and without fearing for his life. Tunde finds himself in South Africa at the worst time possible---a time the Saffas frown heavily upon Nigerians. He should stay low and try to stay hidden, but first he has to get Jabulani off his back. Right after he figures out what exactly Jabulani wants from him. 2) YOUR WIFE: You think your wife is cheating on you. All the signs are there, and she doesn't even talk to you anymore. But you have to investigate. You need to know the truth---what she does when you're away; why she spends so long in the bathroom. You have to know the truth---even if it destroys you. 3) JONATHAN: Funmi has no friends. None at all. Not even the rats pay her any attention, and she feels all alone in the prison that is her mind. No one would talk to her---no one, save Jonathan. It's always been Jonathan, by her side for ten years past. Funmi does not mind. Jonathan is smart. He has a charming smile, with a silver dagger up his sleeves, and he is never going to let her be alone. Ever again. 4) JONATHAN (SEE QUELLING): After yet another sedation, Funmi slumps into a dark realm, trapped in a space darker than anything she has ever known-here, all her dirty secrets and deepest fears take precedence. Something hunts her too, from ages long before her birth, and Funmi knows she can't outrun it. It will catch her, and it will kill her. But Jonathan stands by her side, emerged from the darkness, so maybe there is hope. He offers her a helping hand, while clutching a dagger in his other hand, and all she has to do to survive is trust him. 5) THAT SUNDAY

She's a wild, free spirit who sees the good in everyone, and he's the hardened, bad-tempered loner who wants nothing to do with her-yet no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she's the one temptation he can't escape. *** He's never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she says every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She's never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find it, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. *** "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes, etc.)
