He needs a scholarship. She's... well, she's just being nice. To him, she's just another nerd. To her, he's just a washed up jock.

Delirium: Crash & Burn
" What's your name?" a deep gentle voice elevated above my head, like the voice of God. I looked up and met a pair of piercing blue eyes. He smiled, a small sexy grin, exposing his perfect teeth, his cheeks dipped inwards revealing small caves of dimples. His skin was tan and dusted lightly with freckles, his hair was dark and effortlessly messy as if he had just gotten out of bed. He too had a series of tattoos on his forearms, none of them connected, each tattoo separate. I couldn't help my eyes from roaming. He was strikingly handsome. •❅──────✧❅✦❅✧──────❅• A dark twist on a classic teen fiction. A story written through four very different perspectives. A world full of bad boys, parties, drugs, and lies. But it's more than the typical teen story. In this dark teen fiction each character has a complex and serious back story and each character has to overcome the lies, love, lust, and trauma that they face. A story about experiencing first times, overcoming hard times and finding your true self in due time. DISCLAIMER: This story includes themes of suicide, terrorism, drugs, and sex- Please read with that in mind. Note: This version on Wattpad is unedited and the first draft- I am currently doing the second and then I will do the third draft of this book.

Not the best friend who became her first kiss... her first love... her everything. But when he moved across the world, he left her with nothing but a broken promise and a gold star necklace she still wears like a scar. She swore she'd wait. He swore they'd find each other again. But two weeks after he came back, he was holding another girl's hand. Now it's war. And Lisa's done playing soft. Noah thought leaving Lisa behind would protect them both. He didn't expect to fall apart without her. Neither did he expect to learn the truth-something so brutal it made him question every moment they'd ever shared and see her as a stranger in the skin of the girl he once loved. And he definitely didn't expect to fall into someone else's arms trying to forget the taste of her lips. But Lisa's not the shy girl he left behind. She's colder now. Hotter, too. And every time he looks at her like he hates her, he wants to grab her and make her remember everything. This isn't just a breakup. It's unfinished business. First love never dies. But it might just destroy them both.

Baby boy ✔️
"I'm like old enough to be your mum." I say to Jakob not even bothering to hide away how amusing I am finding the idea. "You're only ten months older than me." Jakob shoots back a hint of defence in his tone. Was he offended? "Still." I laugh out. "You could be my baby boy." I smirk sending Jakob a wink. - THIS IS NOT A SEX STORY!!!!! The characters are teenagers! (A/n so the main character starts off as a pretty bad person which is needed because this story is about PERSONALITY GROWTH so if you don't like reading that type of stuff then please don't read this book. It is only for the first 5 chapters and I'm not justifying her actions. She is a b***h) Highest ranking: #2 youngadult #2 teenromance #10 romance Started October 2018 Finished July 2019Complete
