"Wha-what are you d-doing?" I whispered as he inched closer towards me. My heart started racing erotically against my ribs. Could he hear it?

He smirked and if possible, closed the already non-existent distance between us. My breath hitched, his smirk widened. Subconsciously, my eyes trailed down his hard torso.

He leaned down and pressed his lips to my ear. "Checking me out, shortcake?" he breathed into my ear.

"I-i need to g-go now," I whispered feebly. I needed to get out of here right now. Before something happened. Before I would regret something. His eyes lost some of their playfulness but he still remained smirking.

"Ah, but you see, that's the thing. I can't let you go, because I need to know who the girl in glasses really is.".

Grief: /ɡriːf/
(Noun) Intense sorrow, especially caused by someone's death.

Meet Keira Matthews.
Smart, mature, caring and perfect in other people's eyes. Except that nothing is perfect. Keira is hurting inside and no one ever notices, or cares. 

After all, she's just the girl in glasses.

Now meet Tyler Stones, your stereotypical bad boy.
He's the ladies man, popular, funny and handsome with a bit of a daredevil side. Once he gets hold of an idea, he never stops pursuing it until he reaches the goal.

What happens when these two cross paths? Well, total chaos of course. However, can this chaos blossom into something more beautiful and meaningful? Can this chaos turn into something that no one had expected to be there in the  first place? 

Can people finally get to know who the girl in glasses really is?

But she doesn't know that Jordan had noticed her from day one. *** PREVIEW into chapter 8 I climb up the stairs and find myself in a long corridor what spread to two directions. Matt's bedroom was on the east wing so I turn to my left and walk toward the last door in the end. But before I can reach half way, a door on my right opens and out runs Jordan. We bump into each other. "What the..???" I steady myself, grabbing his jacket and prevent myself from falling backward. "Run!" He says. "What?" I release him. "Run," he grabs my hand and starts pulling me with him. "Why would I...?" I turn around while I'm dragged toward the stairs and see Tiffany, all angry and face cherry red come throw the door Jordan had exited a minute ago. "You dirty bitch!" She yells at the top of her lungs as she sees me, Jordan's hand still gripes me. Amazing cover by @uniqueread.

*SLOWLY BEING EDITED* Zane had a special mission to accomplish. No one could find out that he's undercover. No one. But with those hazel eyes and her smart mouth he couldn't stay away from her. She was making him feel things he never knew it was possible. Yet bringing her into his world was dangerous especially because of her sudden connection to his case. Katherine has a baggage full of insecurities and trust issues. She never had an official boyfriend and being 24 that's socially unacceptable. The danger those grey eyes emit should scare her away. He was trouble and she knew that but she couldn't help it. The attraction she feels towards him is scaring her. Is it worth taking the risk? ........ "Can you cook?" "I can" "Good, what about laundry and cleaning?" I nodded. "Fuck Angel, you're like the perfect woman and you still want me to be your friend" He joked and found myself laughing. "Because I am the perfect housewife?" I asked arching an eyebrow. "No, because you are the perfect combination of smart, beautiful, and skillful." I blushed at that and I wanted to look away but one of his hands stopped me and turned my face towards him. "Get used to hearing compliments because you're going to hear them often in the future. Now, about my offer..." He gave me an expectant look. I thought for a while. I still wasn't sure it was a good idea but I liked working at the shop and still wanted to work there for a little while. "Alright, let's do it," I said. "Now? Here? Damn Angel, first the fiancé thing, and now this. For someone inexperienced, you sure move fast" He joked and I laughed. *Warning ⚠️* Strong language, triggering topics such as body shaming, depression...

*used to be named tutoring the badboy* ❝"You're also wearing a devil costume," he states walking towards me, which causes me to move backwards. "What does that say about your personality," he adds when my body hits the wall behind me. His face now closer to mine and his body only inches away.

"I guess you'll never know," I whisper and let go of my grip, soon walking away and making sure to sway my hips slightly.❞ *** Lucas is one of the Badboys of the school and he keeps bumping into Paige.
