Sophia by rosecsolace

Now, seniors in high school and yet they can't let this childish vendetta against one another go. What happens when they can no longer tell if their obsession with one an other is hatred... or love? It's no secret to everyone around them that they are inevitable.

Facade Of Perfectionism by Shrya1712

'Love is like a child, That longs for everything it can come by' -William Shakespeare _______________________________________________________ Maya Matthews is the description of perfection, or as she has been addressed. She excels in every field she steps her foot into, be it from her perfect grades to being the best daughter a parent could ask for, you name it. Her tenderness is what attracts every guy's attention.

He is the polar opposite of Maya. Smart, confident, and witty. He's often misunderstood for a bad boy, who has quite a handful of girls swooning over him. He's a carefree soul. He is the yin to her yang. What happens when they cross paths and Shawn unleashes Maya's dark secrets? Will he succeed in his mission to pull Maya out of her past, and show what life has to offer? But life is certainly not a bed of roses and nothing comes as easy. _______________________________________________________ They say love can overcome anything.

Charming, cocky, and hotter than the sun, Damien has this talent for getting under Nate's skin like no one else can. Worse? He's tempting. Like, moth-to-a-flame tempting. And those stolen glances Damien gives-like Nate's the most precious thing on earth? They're not helping. Damien is off-limits and trouble-a heartbreak in human form, the ultimate fuckboy. But resisting him? Feels impossible. And if Nate's not careful, Damien might burn his whole world down-and Nate might just let him.

Castle in the City by lia2wavy

"You good, babe? You kinda seem a bit off today." "How so?" I asked, even though I knew the answer to that question. Damien answered, "Well you haven't been talking much, even when we were driving from the school and to your house, you've avoided eye contact with me, and you seem a bit nervous around me. I know you've been a bit sick last week, but I can't help but feel as if you're hiding something from me." I stared outside of my window as I sighed, "You're right, but I don't know how you'll react. I myself don't know how to react. I haven't told anyone." "About...?" Damien asked as he parked the car in front of a liquor store. I sighed, "Can we talk about this later?" Damien sighed before nodding and getting out the car. He then went into the liquor store and, after about ten minutes, came back with two bags with two bottles in each. He placed the bags in the trunk before getting in the driver's seat and staring at me. "What?" I asked shyly. "Are you pregnant?" Damien asked with a straight face while staring me into my eyes. I blushed, "What? Why would you think-" "Are you pregnant, City?" he asked again, and I looked away. *This story contains mature themes and contents. Read at your own risk*
