"What is it?" Aeson frowns, catching me staring.
"Nothing," I chuckle embarrassed, "I was just trying to think about something to start a conversation."
"And what did you think about?" He leans closer, interested.
"Nothing came to my mind."
At that he smirkes.
"Well," He wets his lips, "we could always just make out."
College, it is a new phase in your life. A lot changes, especially if you have to move from your small town to a big city where you don't know anyone. Fortunately, for Emilia Anjos, sometimes your optimistic thinking does pay off, and she manages to get under the wing of a colorful haired extrovert named Cora Moore.
That friendship opens a door for many more, including a shameless flirt basketball player, Leo Castillo, and Aeson Meyer, the musician who caught her attention with his living paradox of tattoos and crazy lemurs shirt.
Hopes are high for this freshman year: living away from home, studying hard, new friends and maybe a love-song-worthy love story.

whose fault? (editing)
A story in which everything that could go wrong, does go wrong. "Got any sevens?" He softly asked, his gaze on me as he waited for my reply. Ignoring the temptation to meet his captivating green eyes, I puckered my lips as I focused my stare on the cards in my hand. "Go fish." There was a tense pause. I sensed his movements beside me as he bypassed the cards on the ground. I looked up to question him, but the words got caught in my throat. I gasped taking in the features of his face that was now inches away from mine. I had never noticed the few specks of gold in his green eyes before. My heart raced as his gaze flicked to my lips and back to my eyes. Then, without hesitation, his lips were on mine and my brain turned to mush. Wren Matthews, a struggling college freshman, had faced a lifetime of neglect and hardship from her family. Just as she thought she couldn't endure any more, life threw her another curveball. She tried to bounce back repeatedly, but starting over wasn't easy. Amidst the chaos, one constant emerged. Eli Parker, a dedicated sophomore whose passions for basketball and music defined him. For Eli, life revolved around the rush of the court and the tranquility of melodies which kept him centered. Yet he discovered there's much more to life when one physics class changes everything. Paired together for a semester-long science project, Wren and Eli's relationship as science partners grows from that to study buddies, to friends, then to something... deeper. Their bond weathers complications that tested their resolve. As their connection deepens, a dangerous game of unspoken questions unfolds, leaving one lingering question: Whose Fault? . . .

highest ranking || #4 on teenfiction || #5 on romance || #2 on new adult || #1 on humor ********************************** I walked outside, found my Uber, and got in the backseat. "Hello." I greeted, before proceeding to tell my driver about the house address. However, I couldn't really do that because as the driver turned around to face me, I realized that Oh! It's Aaron Owens! OH MY GOD. *********************************** Ellie Rosell. Casual teenager trying to get through high school by watching Netflix, eating, spending her money on concerts, and swooning over hot guys. Just when Ellie thought she'll spend her last year of hell known as school with the same boring routine, she met Aaron Owens. And from down there, things changed. For sure. Did they change for the better? Since she's actually making friends, going out, and dare she says, falling in love? Or for the worse? With family secrets, mental health issues, heartbreak, and fake people? After all, she met the one and only Aaron Owens, and he changed her life. *********************************** "Oh my gosh! Author! reading this story was just... I have no words. The adventure you took me on was just dreamy. You made me laugh out loud so hard and you also made me cry. You made me feel the second-hand embarrassments that Ellie felt and it was so lively. You made me feel as if I was Ellie and you gave me hope that I could one day feel the same way as Ellie did towards Aaron. And all of these reasons is why your book is one of the best books I've ever read and let me tell you I've read a lot of books. Thanks for the journey and the hope you have given me!

Awkward
- a featured story on wattpad @sport - a featured story on wattpad @generalfiction School has an odd way of making you hate it yet love the people you meet. I hate both. I've been the new boy at my school for nearly five months. Since my family's life of poverty was flipped on its head I've seen my entire world open up; it's like I was living in a cave. This time last year, I was 'too poor to have a Valentine'. This time this year, I just don't have the guts. Seriously, "Valentine's Day is the root of human anxiety." ~ Albert Einstein. (Don't look it up. I'm telling you what 'the government' doesn't want you to know.) But school has an odd way of giving you the perfect friends, a perfect love life and perfectly supporting your dreams to be a pro football player like your older brother. That, or it crushes you. It just crushes you. Your dreams? Crushed. Your friends? Meh. Your love life? Nonexistent (but as soon as it exists, CRUSHED). But we don't know what will happen for sure, right? I'm Roman Turner, but you can call me "the cool man". Gosh, I know I'll cringe at this later. ----------- - a featured story on wattpad @sport - a romance winner at the multi awards - a story told through two points of view • Romance/Sport/Slice of Life | Roman • Prose/Mystery/Psychological | Danielle • BOOK ONE: LIVING. • (EST.) 3390 words/part. • Cover artist - Sage Hieran.

Maybe Happily Ever After✔️
I chuckled slightly and shook my head. "Does that usually work for you? The cute little remarks and that nice smile." I teased. He gave me a sheepish look of surprise. "Most girls would be flattered at my attempt to flirt with them." I scoffed and shook my head. "Well, as a member of the "most girls" community, I can say that I am not." "Wow. That's a bit harsh." He gave me a smug look and crossed his arms. "Sorry," I shrugged. "I'm immune to boy charms. In fact, I think I'm allergic." "Well, don't think so highly of yourself. Just because you have cute dimples and a pretty face, doesn't mean I find you attractive." ------------------------------ Maya Cameron is a senior at Ohio State University and this is the year where you need to get your life together before you get pushed out into the real world. Writing is the only thing that keeps her sane after all of the trauma she's been though. With her mom and dad's unfortunate death, she's been left under the care of her evil step-aunt and forced to stay with her annoying step-cousin. As if college isn't stressful enough. And then there's this other guy in her life. They met online by accident and have been talking for months but she's not brave enough to make it something real. Will Ashby is the all-around superstar on campus. He's practically royalty because he's the running back on the Ohio State Football team: one of the best college football teams in America. Will is the person guys want to be and guy girls want to be with. But in actuality, he'd rather blend in with the background noise. His only focus has been football and finishing his degree. That was until he met this girl. He doesn't even know her name or what she looks like, but she's the girl he'd want to be real with. Because of circumstances, Will needs an English tutor or he won't be able to play. And much to her dismay, Maya is the perfect person for the job.

The Contrast Effect
Dallas Donovan's parents divorced when he was six. His little sister, Tessa, went with their mom, while he stayed with his dad. It wasn't the usual messy, bitter split - quite the opposite. Both parents love their kids and co-parent peacefully. But no matter how much love remains, they can never be the family they once were. And that truth gnaws at Dallas more than he'll ever admit. He hates math with a burning passion but surprisingly loves biology - not that anyone expects the basketball star to enjoy dissecting frogs and memorizing cell structures. Then there's Kiera Davenport. The new girl. She's a walking contradiction - quiet but bold, cold but captivating. She's not a fan of any subject but somehow excels in all of them. On the field, she's Ravenwood High's star football player. Off the field, she posts dance challenges on Instagram, earning thousands of followers - and making boys practically drool. Not that she cares. Their sweet, overly optimistic biology teacher decides to play matchmaker, pairing students to help them "bond." Dallas and Kiera end up stuck together - no surprise, considering the teacher's obvious (and painfully unsubtle) attempts to ship them. The real question is: what does fate has in-store for them? Some stories are written by choice. Others - the unforgettable ones - are written by fate. --- "You're different," I muttered before I could stop myself. She blinked. "What?" I hesitated. "I mean... compared to school. You're-" I gestured vaguely at her oversized T-shirt, the ridiculous F.R.I.E.N.D.S. lyrics on it, her messy bun, the way she just-was. "Different." Something flickered in her gaze, but she just shrugged. "That's what happens when people only see what they want to see," she said simply, turning back to the stove. I didn't have a response for that. .................................... (Editing & Republishing)Complete
