THE PERFECT GUY by Cath3yy

What does it mean to be perfect? Does a perfect guy even exist? Rachael is lonely, depressed, and bullied at school, with no friends to turn to. As she teeters on the edge of despair, she contemplates ending it all-until the possibility of a soulmate gives her a glimmer of hope. Rachael dreams of finding her perfect match, but deep down, she doubts that love is in the cards for her. When Jake, a new student, arrives at Brookdale High, she fears he'll be just another bully. But instead of ridicule, Jake offers comfort, and Rachael begins to believe that maybe, just maybe, love is possible. With newfound courage, Rachael decides to stand up to her bullies and speak out about the torment she's endured. To her surprise, one of her tormentors, Sam, apologizes and urges others to stop. As she gains new friends-and possibly a love interest or two-Rachael's world starts to change. But in the end, only one guy can be her perfect match. Will Rachael find the love she's been searching for, or is perfection just an illusion?

She is both easy and difficult at the same time. She is also scary but approachable. Everyone is curious to know about her. To everyone, she is a walking mystery. That is until she bursts open and befriends everyone she comes across. She is now considered the bee in every hive that is known in the school. She gets along with the popular crowd, with the jocks, with the jerks, with the nerds and what did you know, also with the bitches. She is now, the most cheerful person in the school. Cheerful and the coolest. However, Louis Emerson is the only person who keeps stumbling across all the secrets she is so desperately trying to hide. And little did she know that he is also going to be her sanctuary and her fortitude. Will everyone realize that she, in reality, is a walking tragedy? That she has wounds which are new but deep? Will she be able to break free from her emotional trauma and fight her demons? Will the boy who she is seeking refugee from, bring her more harm than good? But the most important, will she be able to keep the secret in the dark? The secret which could either save or destroy her and her loved ones.

Time And I by jackson_terrance

Mel Snider is the girl everyone stares at as she walks down the hall. Due to her best friend being the most popular boy in school, she's used to her fair share of malicious glares and gossip surrounding her. The only reason she doesn't let it bother her is because she knows that she'll have to endure it all once she's a famous drummer in a famous rock band. Having been searching for a band for years, she still continues to practice every day. With drumming being her life, she doesn't allow time for anything except schoolwork, her two best friends, and her sister. However, being the only person in school who isn't afraid of the violent bad boy, Devon Quid, she'd been forced to bring him his schoolwork after he refused to come back to school after his suspension ended. With Mel continuously bumping into Devon (as well as finding reasons to go see him), she begins to let him into her life. But letting him into her life means making the time to be with him. After always placing drumming at the top of her list, she wonders if she should continue to focus solely on her drumming, or if it's worth it in the end to balance her time to be with someone special. Inspired by the anime's 'Say, "I Love You",' 'Kimi ni Todoke,' and 'My Little Monster.'

The Band Geek | ✔️ by worldsofella

"We shouldn't do this-- I'm leaving in a few months." "What better time to start than now." "I thought I was just a music nerd to you." "You're not a 'music nerd...' you're a band geek. My band geek." --------------------------------- Hudson Diamante is the son and heir of KD Tech, a worldwide technology company. His parents decide to home a transfer student for publicity. Alannah Parker is a girl from the UK, transferring because she's considered a musical prodigy. She has an checkered past, not letting it show by covering it with a bright smile and happy attitude. Hudson isn't too fond of this transfer student. Before he even met her, he would call her a 'band geek.' He doesn't need any distractions, and needs to focus on his school work. Imagine his shock when he realizes this 'band geek' is prettier than most girls at his school. Once Alannah arrives in sunny Los Angeles, she is attracted to Hudson, but she doesn't need another guy like him in her life. She is there for one and one reason only-- to get away. She has a gift, one which she uses to escape. Escape her life, her sadness, her problems. Once drowned in music, she drops her facade of happiness.
