Alarice Beck: the most awesome person you'll ever meet, or at least she'd like to put it that way. Sarcasm drips off her tongue and dance is her life. 'Self' proclaimed narcissist, laid back and live in the moment are just few things to describe her.  

In her amazing life with friends she holds very close, there are the usual ups and downs. 
Everything changes when she auditions for the ultimate dance opportunity she could ever get. 

In the process of this dance competition she meets the Golden Boy of the school, Alan Rochester. Guy with the cutest smile ever always on face, dancing skills which make others doubt themselves and mysteries looming around him.  

No one knows what will happen in this awesome journey but surely it won't be easy. There are disadvantages of everything, there is always a flip side and so is for Alarice and her awesomeness. 

One competition, just one and everybody's life changes. Changes in a way it never was, in a way where you can't go back, in a way the situations change for bad and for good. 

A/n - You might find it a little cliche in the start but trust me it is more than a teenage romance fiction. Thank you for reading xx.

A Change of Heart by Slendytubbie11
12 parts Ongoing
When someone believes that they know what they want, sometimes the human heart asks for so much more, even if they just don't know it yet. For as long as he could remember, he was always the person who believed that he didn't need anyone to be there with him to get through the days. Now, seventeen-year-old Evermore student Zak-Neo Amberwell still chooses to think that way. With his stone-cold glares and blunt comments, he knows that he will never find anyone who would be in their right mind to spend a day with him and consider him a "friend," and he is willing to accept this as a simple fact. For as long as he could remember, he was always the person that he felt no one wanted to be around, afraid he stuck out in a bad way. All Tai Reed wanted, as an Evermore Secondary High School student at seventeen, was to have a friend that he could spend his time with. However, with his love of anime and questionable choices, he is afraid that he will never be able to meet someone that would enjoy his company. When Zak-Neo has a run in with Tai, the two learn something that they never thought would be possible. For Zak-Neo, it really is possible for someone like him to find people that can understand the drawbacks in his mannerisms, even if it means meeting a unique variety of individuals who are willing to do so. For Tai, it is possible for him to find someone who will stand by his side no matter what and is willing to support him through whatever troubles he has, even if it means he has to confront his own emotions to keep these friendships. This is meant to be a coming-of-age fictional story about two people who meet for the first time, finding comfort and companionship in each other, providing support for one another through their toughest moments of hardship, and realizing that what they thought they wanted could grow into so much more; that is the wonder of the human heart. ***This story is currently a work-in-progress | May contain swearing***
Her Mysterious Ways by writingoverbreathing

Cole the Not So Stereotypical Jock Being the most popular guy that girls all want to be with and all guys want to be should make you feel on top of the world, right? Not always, especially if you have to keep the fact that you can barely afford food a secret at all costs. And then the new girl shows up with her amazing dance moves and intoxicatingly confusing logic, and he can't seem to get her out of his head. She isn't the favorite girl of the school, not to mention his friends, and she doesn't show any interest towards him, but he has to try. The girl with the mysterious ways has got him wrapped around her scarred little finger. Not Andy Being the girl with no friends is never easy- especially when you have major trust issues and problems that can only be discussed with a shrink. That's why instead of slowly letting people into her life, she chose to shut them out completely. It seems easier that way, which is until she moves to Bangor, Maine and catches the eye of Cole, the football quarterback and heart throb of the school. He makes her feel things that she didn't think we're capable, and he shows how to make a bad situation into something semi-tolerable. It gets her thinking that maybe cliche boys with secrets aren't such a bad thing. During their 17th year, Andy and Cole must face the problems of high school, social hierarchy, their pasts, relationships, trust, friendships, and even love. Both of them knowing that stories like this never happen to kids like them, but they're willing to try anyway.

"In vain have I struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you." -Pride and Prejudice. -Jane Austen. Allison Waters is a girl as simple as they come, atleast that's what she believed. And to be honest she did enjoy a simple life for the past two years. All she wanted to pass her senior year in peace and be happy in life. What she wasn't expecting was to be back in town with a certain Greek God of a Devil acting more annoying than ever... Calling him tall dark and handsome would be the understatement of the century. He is the arrogant quarterback and one of the most popular guys in shcool. He is as I mention previously the reincarnation of the devil in his actions and a Greek God in the looks department, with startling blue eyes, a sinful body and gorgeous hair, who may at different times define the words Cocky and Adorable. Quite a contrast isn't it? Well that's who he is, or for that matter how we all are... a bit of both. Ashton Fobes is Alli's bestfriend, well Ex-Bestfriend, he is also her arch nemisis, her sworn enemy, but he is also the only one who can make her push her limits and challenge her in ways she never thought possible. Soon they were playing with Cupid's arrows trying to set up the unlikeliest couple imaginable, but what they seemed to have forgotten was Fate's wierd sense of humor and so it turned out while they were playing with Cupid's Arrows, he was aiming them at these two instead. Ps: I have now unpublished most of the chapters. Highest Ranking: 30, 35, 50 in teen fiction. 32, 66 in ChickLit. 46, 47, 78 in humor.

how far would you go . . . for someone you love? ♔ Levi steps forward, placing himself between me and Jack. Like he's protecting me from him. But I don't need protecting, certainly not from Jack. "Who do you think you are, dude?" Levi spits, getting in Jack's face. "Look, Scarlett was just helping me out with a proj-" "I'm not your dude," Jack bites, and I want to tear my hair out of my head. This is going downhill very fast. Jack turns to me. "Scar, we need to talk," he says lowly. Then loud enough for Levi to hear, "So can you please get this kid to leave." "Hey, you don't get to come in here and start ordering her around," Levi says harshly. "You don't control her." "And you think that you do?" Jack spits. ♔ When Scarlett moved off to college, she hoped to start anew and find her way in this world alone. Two problems.

When Scarlett is paired with an allusive, darkly handsome stranger for a film project, her world begins to open in ways she never thought possible.

Low Profile At High School ✔

27 parts Complete

"Not a typical High School romance because life isn't cliché." Trisha was a fifteen year old, studious girl but this didn't make her a sincere one. She had real social issues, it was difficult for her to even begin a conversation, this didn't mean that she didn't want to talk to anyone, she just couldn't. Surrounded by acquaintances, she had no real friends. Her crush, Jai, didn't even know that she existed! Trisha's life is surely going to turn around in a single year. By the end of it, she'll have friends, people who she can trust, confidence, love, an understanding of the world. But most importantly, she'll realise that you don't need to be popular to be happy. A low profile at high school is much like it. This wouldn't have been possible without a journey worth sharing and worth knowing, the journey of Trisha. Because, we don't just change unharmed. We have to get hurt before we can repair ourselves, and that's how we get better. Higest Ranking #164 in Teen Fiction (May 24th, 2018)
