"Am I dreaming?"

"No, Harley. You're not dreaming. This is reality."

"But the sooner I accept that, the sooner this all disappears."

--------

Harley Strauss had always been a dreamer. Lost. Lost in her own head, lost in books. Harley was so far gone in so many things that she had trouble distinguishing her well-wished-for-fantasies from reality. Not that she minded.

When Harley read The Reason to Be -- a book she purposefully claimed to be the best ever -- she wanted nothing more than to date Nathan Evans, who is admittedly hot and charming, despite the fact that he is only a minor character who tended to be overlooked.

But it was only a dream. Not reality.

Not yet.

The Bad Boy and Me by readbooksforever
36 parts Complete
Meet Violet Summers. She's the sarcastic girl who doesn't really ever get noticed by anyone. She blends into any crowd because of how "normal" she is. And she loves it. She wouldn't be able to stand the attention of everyone around her. That's why she won't tell Ryan Bloore, her crush for three years, that she practically worships the ground he walks on. Ryan is the captain of the basketball team at their school, so guys see him like he's a god and girls act like he walks on water. If they were to date, all eyes would be on her- she would be under everyone's scrutiny. So she's kept her feelings a secret, and she's done her best to suppress her emotions these past years, but she's realized that she's been so caught up in making people not notice her that she didn't realize how lonely she would be when no one was watching. Now meet Ryder Knight. School bad boy. Quarterback captain and heartthrob. The kind that wears a leather jacket and has tattoos all over his arms. The one who shows up to school riding a motorcycle. Just your average run of the mill "if you get involved with this guy, you will meet some serious trouble" kind of male. Well, too bad for Violet, she's stuck with him now. After all of the years of pushing away her feelings for Ryan because of her fear of being seen, she is now all anyone can look at- because of Ryder. Because of him, she can feel their stares, and she hates him for it. The longer they spend time together, the more Ryder starts to realize he actually enjoys being around her-despite her snarky comments about how much she despises him. And if Violet is being completely honest with herself, she's also starting to realize she might not actually hate the fact that people are noticing her now, but hate the way Ryder makes her feel.

"That guy is totally checking you out." "Who?" My eyes found Simone's face as a sheepish smirk played on her lips. "That guy. Over there. Wearing the motorcycle jacket." Motorcycle jacket? My eyes followed Simone's gaze across the cafeteria. And there he was. The guy from this morning. I could feel the blush develop in my cheeks. I quickly looked away. Simone gasped, "Are you blushing?" "No I'm not!" I quickly lied. Clearly feeling the heat growing in my cheeks. "He's not even looking over here." "Oh yes he is! He's even coming over." My attention shot in the direction he was and he was definitely coming over here. A nervous expression covered my face as I looked over at Simone. "I think I hear Caleb calling me. Bye!" "Simone, don't........." she was already gone before I could finish my short sentence, "leave." I could feel him getting closer. I placed my phone on the table and started playing with the hem of my t-shirt. Nervous about him coming over here. "Hi." His voice sounded so heavenly. Like Justin Bieber when he's singing. My eyes slowly moved from looking down at the table to his feet and travelled up to his eyes. He stood at the opposite side of the table but it felt like he was closer than I wanted him to be and at the same time I felt like I needed him to be even closer. He was well built with board muscular shoulders just like I thought. He must spend a lot of time in the gym. I can only imagine him without a shirt on. I bet his abs look incredibly sexy. I shook my head at the thought and answered back. "H-hi."

~Cover by me~ WARNING: I created this book years ago so it is a bit um cringy I am working on a new version of it called "Midnight Rose" if you'd be interested in that. "What are you wearing?" He said jaw tightened... "Gym cloths as we're in gym"... first, he and his friends are hiding out in a freaking alleyway which was shady as heck second, he tries to order me to sit by him third, he hugs me without my permission fourth, he smells me like a freaking creep which he definitely is fifth, he growls which isn't normal sixth, He touched me without my permission yet again almost breaks my wrist definitely bruising it and now he has the nerve to question what I'm wearing and get mad over my answer awe heck no... I exited the locker room I saw the beast was there right outside the door and there were several girls behind him giggling and gawking at him, although he is hot I will admit that much... I think I'm falling for Ian. I can't let Bell know... "Well then.." his voice lowered "Evan Pierce I have every intention to win your heart and re-name you Evan Walker"... His smirk grew then fell. Slowly he leaned in closer and closer until I could feel his warm, minty breath on my face... "Evan" Ian started "I am going to kiss you" his words coming out with determination. Before I could stop him or even react I felt his soft, warm lips touch mine lightly. His scent becoming more dominate. His warmth surrounding my body. Millions of tiny sparks running through my body. I'm not sure what came over me... Maybe I just wanted to revel in this new emotion... Maybe I've lost my my mind... But instead of pushing him away I closed my eyes welcoming him...
