Poppy Jameson has lived her life as an average. An average student. An average daughter. She isn't the favourite child, or the best student, and she has never been in a relationship. She doesn't want to fit in, but she doesn't want to stand out. She just wants to fly under the radar until high school is over. And she's almost there. That is, until she starts to fail biology and she's put into the school's tutoring programme. It's there that she meets Lewis Fletcher, the captain of the school's football team, and smartest guy in school. 

They spend every Monday afternoon together and it isn't long until Poppy realises that she's been missing out. That she's spent her entire high school career hating high school traditions when she should have been enjoying them.All Rights Reserved

"This thing between us." He said, gesturing to the space between our bodies. "It's bound to happen. You know it. I know it." He tipped his head to the side and lowered his face until it was inches from mine. I sucked in a breath when those vibrant green eyes met mine under a set of thick eyelashes. "Don't fight it." He finished. ****** Kalley Jackson is set on leaving her life behind. After years of hiding and living like the akward anti-social girl, her last year of high school seemed like the perfect time to let herself loosen up and start living like any normal teenage girl would. Moving on with her mother seemed like the best option. Coming back to the town where she was born may be the right thing to do. She is willing to start new and let out her true self, but when she gets involved with the school's football star, she ends up realizing that the life she thought of exploring may not be all that real either. © 2018, Netflix-and-cry

Rain and Roses by AidinWhite

Leon Blackwell was a Senior in high school, the guy that everyone knew, but couldn't tell you a thing about him, the kid that was second at everything. The one who clearly wore a mask but wouldn't let anyone in to see it. Kiera Yvette was a delinquent with an unknown history. Pretty as a sunset and sharp as a knife it was only another person with a mask, though smoking, and driving a motorcycle seemed the perfect cover to her, and a way to get the attention she wanted. He didn't want to be seen, she didn't want anyone to know her. She's the rebel who skips class, and he's the quiet kid who couldn't care less. But when her grades slip he becomes her tutor, and things both didn't want to be known came to the light, a place neither wanted to end up. But with a lit match there's only so long before it starts to burn, and with them burning was all they ever knew. (Shy boy & bad girl type romance. Swearing, some cringe, and my favourite unused trope)

Saving Sebastian by thegreeneyedwriter

"I don't need saving." He spit at the ground. I had never met anyone like Sebastian. "We're friends, whether you like it or not." I cross my arms over my chest. "This is one odd friendship." He rolls his eyes. Sebastian was right. It was one odd friendship. - Sebastian Peters was a mystery to everyone at Valley Brook High School. When he wasn't playing with girls hearts, he was nothing more than an outcast. He never spoke, or took out his earphones. His looks were a mask to the horrible personality that was locked up inside. Sebastian was a safe with a code no one could crack. A lost cause. This was until Aria Watson stepped into Sebastian's life. The two opposites had a lot more in common then they thought, including the love for soccer. Little did she know the only thing left in his safe was a broken heart. Does aria have the power to fix what is already destroyed? Copyright © 2016

As Katie and Josh's friendship blossomed she quickly formed a crush on Josh, but as the years progressed, her crush turned into love.

Katie unexpectedly reunites with her former best friend, and Josh quickly realizes that his feelings for her are not just platonic anymore. * As I'm walking out of work I get a call from my brother to pick my niece up from school. For the past 4 years that little girl has had me wrapped around her finger and I wouldn't have it any other way. Unfortunately I got stuck in traffic on the way over so I'm late for pick up. Once I get to Melanie's classroom I fill out the sign out sheet that's on the wall and make my way into the classroom. I faintly hear Melanie laughing so I know she's not upset from me being late. "Hey I'm so sorry. I got stuck in traff..." I said stopping mid sentence, stunned at the woman in front of me. Standing in front of me is someone I considered one of the most important people to me back in highschool. As soon as I looked into those Caribbean blue that I used to know so well, I knew it was her. It takes her a few seconds to realize who I am. She stands there stunned. We continue to stare at each other until she breaks the silence. "Josh?" She asks not believing it's actually me. "Hey Katie girl."

Isolation (modified) by maynardhigh

**an improved version of Isolation - the same story but rewritten to be more mature, and a better read** Megan Hayes and Logan Brooks are your typical, rebellious teenagers that spend more time in the school isolation room than an actual classroom. Well, that's Logan anyway, who's so close to expulsion that even getting a bad score on a class quiz could get him thrown out. They both attend a private school in the small town which consists of rules stricter than a prison, and a bunch of stuck up pupils with IQ's higher than Albert Einstein's. When Megan ends up falling to sleep in class because of the previous late night she had watching 'Keeping up with the Kardashians' until 1am with her Mum, she gets dropped in an after school detention faster than you can say "oops". But who knew that sitting through a detention, and later in an isolated room with Logan could quite possibly make the school she despises actually worth going to. And who knew that in the 5 years of going to the school, the only person she actually becomes close with (and I mean really close) is the guy shooting paper spitballs at the teacher.

But things start to crumble. After all, drama never leaves. Topher and Ryder's friendship starts to strain when Topher starts dating Ryder's enemy. And when an awful person from Parker's traumatic past shows up, things go downhill. And it certainly doesn't help that a ton of crazy stuff is going on when Topher, Parker, and Ryder are all up for the scholarship of their dreams. But, for Parker, does being up for this scholarship mean he has to quit surfing, the one thing that's been keeping him going though his crazy, traumatic life? Through all of this, will Ryder, who's never felt a certain love in her life, find new feelings for Topher? Oh wait. Maybe Parker?
