Kellan experienced life like one experiences a dream- With little memory of how it started and only vague remembrances of past events. He thought throwing himself into a never-ending pit of cynicism and scrutiny would protect him from the socialization he dreaded, but someone unexpected is determined to change that. 

Love is subjective. Some people define it as the mutual affection of two beings whereas some see it as the result of fate. For Kellan Riley, the school outcast by choice, love was worthless. A meaningless term used to manipulate others and to weaken them. But star athlete Andy is determined to prove him otherwise. Andy is the whole package- Attractive, funny, unabashed and genuinely likeable. Kellan isn't sure why Andy had decided to wedge himself into his life, but his irritation slowly melts away as Andy's good-nature finds its way into his head and into his heart.

From reshaping his world with classic flicks and cold fries to introducing him to the life of trust, beauty, and adventure-- Andy has many obstacles to cross if he wants to prove to Kellan that love is not a weakness but a source of strength. All he needs is a little luck and twelve Octobers.

Not everyone's trust issues come from failed relationships. Sometimes, it comes from the family and friends closest to us. Griffin Miller and Parker Graham are living, breathing testaments to this truth. Somewhere on Griffins life path, between living with his perfect twin sister, fighting tooth and nail for his dads approval, and competing against his NFL-bound cousin, Griffin lost sight of what matters most in life: Peace. Health. Time. Purpose. If Griffin thought the first 18 years of his life were tough, it's nothing like what the past 5 months have been. Football, family, classes, and trying to keep his cousin alive is wearing him thin. Too thin. Parker is still reeling from a sudden life change that happened to him nearly six months ago. There's a chance that he could've healed by now, however without the support of his closest cousin & with the way his uncle is forcing him back onto the football field, those wounds are reopened every day. Even as Parkers life slowly becomes normal again, he still struggles to become the person that he used to be. When one little mistake during senior year changes the trajectory of both of their lives, it's too late to change. Parker can't do anything but stand back and watch his cousins life burn to the ground, hoping that his won't be next. Griffin is forced to chose between three choices: forgive his past, wreck his own future, or break all of the rules that he's been obeying for years. - - - It's like my lungs refuse to suck down air. They don't want to live after what just happened. Someone forces life back into them by slamming an oxygen mask over my nose and mouth. A million different people get the stretcher underneath me. Torment digs its' claws into my skin and rips it away. Grief squeezes real tears out of my eyes for the first time in eight years. Karma leans down next to me and whispers in my ear: 'You can't outrun me anymore.'
King of Harts by BingingsAnonymous
63 parts Complete
Emory Hart is a simple woman. She loves her family, enjoys her trips to the book store and to the coffee shop and she can never turn down her best friend when it comes to random nights full of chaos. She's content. All it takes is one run in with the one person she never seemed to win over and a surprise visit from her brother to shift Emory's whole world on its axis. After two years of successfully avoiding him, Emory's "simple" and "content" are about to morph into something a bit more frustrating and confusing and it comes in the form of her brothers best friend. Adrian Harley is a man of control. He's easy going and has charmed his way into the hearts of the entire Hart family. Emory has always been his biggest challenge. It's not because he can't win her over with the same easy going routine he uses with everyone else. It is simply because he can't find himself wanting to. No, what Adrian seeks from Emory is something much more intense. Darker. It's only because of his relationship with her brother that he swallows all of those urges for the sake of his closest friend and his own sanity. When Adrian offers his guest room to his best friend, he comes face to face with the one thing he can't have and his self control begins to snap. Adrian finds himself crossing the one line that was silently drawn when befriending the Harts. The line that leads to the one woman he isn't allowed to want. He's unleashed. Obsessed even. And she thinks he hates her.
Rivaled Hearts by addiew_08
10 parts Ongoing Mature
Meet Tanner Bailey, the typical college jock-towering, broad-shouldered, and always dressed in a tight-fitting letterman jacket that seems like it's barely holding in his inflated ego. His chiseled features and confidence make him the envy of his teammates and the object of many students' admiration, but behind that athletic exterior lies a personality as sour as his smirk. Tanner is the type of guy who relishes in making others feel small, using his popularity and physical prowess to intimidate and belittle anyone he deems beneath him, which is practically everyone. To him, the world revolves around his needs and desires, and anyone who doesn't fall in line is just another target for his bullying. Beneath the surface, he hides a deep insecurity, but he'll never let anyone see it-not if he can keep up his act as the school's golden boy. Meet Harper Avery, a force to be reckoned with-brilliant, beautiful, and always in control. With striking features that could stop traffic, she's the girl everyone notices when she walks into a room. Her style is impeccable, always dressed to impress, and she carries herself with a confidence that turns heads and commands attention. But Harper isn't just a pretty face; she's one of the smartest people you'll ever meet. Top of her class, she excels in everything she puts her mind to, whether it's academics, debate, or any of the numerous clubs she leads. Harper is ambitious, and she knows exactly what she wants in life. She's not afraid to push others to meet her high standards, which can make her come off as bossy or even ruthless at times. Some find her intimidating, and there's no denying that she can be demanding. Tanner and Harper had always been on opposite sides of the schools social spectrum- she couldn't stand his entitled attitude, and he couldn't bear her constant need to prove she was better than everyone else, especially him. To outsiders, they were natural-born enemies, two forces destined to oppose each other.

13 parts Ongoing Mature
Riley Lachkov's life has only ever consisted of one thing - soccer. Raised in a family where emotions don't exist, Riley has put on a cold-front for as long as he could remember. Many people think that they know him - a cocky, arrogant, rude jerk who couldn't give less of a shit about what others think, but deep down, there's a part of him that no one has ever seen. A part of him that he never wants anyone to see. Archer Wilson has got everything going for him. From being at the top of all of his classes, to also being the most popular boy in school, his life is perfect. Everyone who knows Archer can confirm that he is anything but mean - with his charismatic personality, and his ability to make anyone swoon for him, he's the golden boy at Saint Arthur's Preparatory School. When Riley's family immigrated from Russia to the States, he struggles to fit in, finding it difficult to start his entire life over when the only thing he's ever known was his life back in his home country. His closed off personality and his tendency to act like a total douchebag didn't help either - in fact, it just made people want to stay away from him even more. But that doesn't stop Archer from trying. In fact, it makes him more intrigued in this new, feisty transfer student, more keen to break down all the walls that Riley has worked so hard to keep up for his entire life. Archer can't help but praise him for every little thing he does- in his eyes, Riley was an angel. He knew he was whipped the moment he saw him. What happens when Archer, the top student at Saint Arthur's, suddenly begins to develop an interest in the new transfer student, whose personality is as cold as ice? Will Riley finally begin to let him in, or will he continue to push him out, like he's done throughout his entire life? tropes: #grumpyxsunshine, #polaropposites, #slowburn, #temporaryunrequitedlove #popularnerdxlonelyathlete All Rights Reserved to Asphericity
