Luck is not on her side, but even after this she still manages to go through life with a big smile and a positive outlook, even when she has to move to the concrete jungle also known as New York City...
Then we have Elijah Romero, the boy with a glass that's always half-empty. With his sarcastic comments and rude remarks he is pretty much Marley's polar opposite. His dark past continues to haunt him and to the outside world he comes off as a boy that hates almost everyone and everything surrounding him.
When Marley and Elijah meet, Elijah takes an immediate dislike towards Marley. All he sees is an annoyingly cheerful girl that has never experienced any hardship in life. When Elijah finds out that they live in the same apartment building he is dead set on avoiding Marley like the plague. But, It's not as easy as he thought since she seems to pop up at his school, at his work and even at his private hangout spot...

His Bad Boy Ego | ✓
Highest rank #27 in Teen Fiction. Written by @apricitys. _ _ _ "What is this?" He asked, not even bothering to look at the canvas in front of me. Instead, his eyes were locked in mine. I swallowed my saliva, chills running down my spine. I felt my palms getting sweaty as my legs nervously started bouncing up and down. Without giving me time to answer, he took a step closer to me, eyes still locked in mine. Each time he inched closer, I used my right foot to slowly push myself and the stool back. It seemed to be the only option to get away from him; until he forced his hands below the sides of my thighs, holding the stool in place. He released a soft chuckle as he eyed me from my eyes, down to my lips. "You're beautiful," he said. From his voice, I couldn't tell if he was being serious, or messing around. It sounded sincere, however there was a smirk on his face. The smirk that he always has on his face when he's found an amusing target. Then he averted his attentions back to my eyes. His expressions softened up the moment his eyes landed back on mine. His smirk disappeared. I cleared my throat and broke the eye contact. I looked down at my palms as I rubbed the sweat against my jeans, "What do you want, Landon?" I asked, almost whispering. I felt his hand brushing against my right cheek, as he tilts my chin up to look back at him. His messy brown hair, his light blue eyes and his pink soft lips were just centimeters from mine. I felt his breath lingering on the upper tip of my lip. In a panic, I pressed my palms against his chest and push him off. He stumbled back with a surprised look on his face. "Aubrey." _ _ _ Landon Carthy is an arrogant boy, who knowns to have absolutely no care in the world. Making girls suffer feels great to him. But what happens when a new girl in town becomes one of his victims? Will she allow him to walk upon her like all the other girls do?Complete
The Inceptive Flame⎪✓
"Do they not say that a good friendship builds on a ground of lies?" I joke, lightening the mood immediately as his green eyes glint in humor and a smirk falls on his familiar lips. "Do you kiss a lot of your friends, love?" The underlying tones threaten to provoke a blush on my cheeks, but I get myself together. Smirking at him, "Well, of course, is that not the norm?" *********** Dakota Moore is the perfect example of a beautiful disaster. Her wisdom is ready to knock anyone down, her self worth is an exact replica of the way her father raised her, and her pain so intense it screams over every building. She refuses to show anyone what's going on behind closed doors, especially when her lovely father gets the traumatic news that he has an incurable disease. Elijah Black is the spur of the moment kind of guy, he's the one no one ever settles with because of his angry outbursts and rude ways. Even though he throws everyone off, except for when they want sexual advances, he still can't help but feel enthralled by the freckled girl who's hiding so many secrets behind a fake smile. As they clash and try to reject the obvious rush, will they accept their attraction, or is everything just too much? After all, how can two ruined teenagers manage a youthful love without destroying themselves in the process?

Ace Of Sins
I lowered my window. "Get in." I demanded, my eyes staring dead at hers. "No," she uttered. I grip on the door handle before saying, "I won't repeat myself." In a blink of an eye, she vanished from my sight. I quickly opened the door, walking through the cold rain-chasing after her. She seriously think I would let her walk in the rain? I jogged to her and grabbed her by her wrist. I could see the irritation in her eyes when she turned and saw who it was. Who cares? "Leave me alone," she spoke with every anger that's stored in her. I watch her as she hits my chest, struggling to move from my grip. My shirt getting soaked by rain and so as my hair. I loosened my grip around her wrist, I bend my knees and tossed her over at my shoulder and walked back to the car. "Fucking hell? Why would you..."I cut her off, not wanting to hear her complains." Here, put this on. " I grabbed my blazer and handed it to her. ..................❦.................. Elizabeth Katz is a woman who believes in being independent.
