"The Rich Boy's Deal" Mar. 23, 2016
There once was a girl,
Who believed in nothing.
She was cold, selfish, and arrogant.
But she met this dude,
And he changed her life .
She saw there was hope.
Her hazel eyes brightened,
Her smile became real.
But it was only because of the rich boy's deal.

Meet Delia Rodgers. She's lived a tough life (and she's only a senior in high school) which anyone would rather die from than live through. She's dealt with hurt, betrayal, and loss, in one year. Tough, huh? Like she cares, she's a solider. And all soldiers go through a storm to meet its rainbow. She's just hoping that rainbow isn't Colton Adams.
When you let people in, they're curious to know more about you. She doesn't want that, but he does.
And then there's Colton Adams. The narcissistic, handsome, rich boy. He's got everything in his life planned beneath the pads of his feet, and yet he's only a senior in high school. But, there's something about him that screams trouble though. Could it be his aura? The amount of wealth which radiates from his clothing and practiced smiles?
When you love someone, it's hard to let go. Colton is willing to take the risk, but she isn't.
When you put these two together, you'll have headaches. Both are stubborn as hell and enjoy winning. They never accept the thought of being wrong and won't ever allow it. So, what happens when you throw a deal into the mix?
Well, of course, nothing good comes out of it.
"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?
