STAGECRAFT by KristinSample

"I would kill for that role." During audition season, the theatre geeks at Whispering Hills Country Day School repeat that sentiment over and over. But for senior Hannah Cross, killing for a role might be a reality thanks to her best friend Skylar. Just as everything in her world is falling into place, Hannah finds herself in the biggest dilemma of her young life. She's crushing it at school. She's just been accepted at NYU. She's dating Brody Wolcott-the hot jock she's had a crush on since freshmen year. And most importantly, Hannah is finally stepping out from under queen bee Skylar's shadow. So, Hannah really didn't need to be involved in a hit-and-run accident, a crash that left musical favorite Zoe in a coma and fellow classmate Will dead. And if Skylar took care of any suspicions, why are the police at school asking questions? And what will happen if the detectives connect this accident to what happened upstate at theatre camp...with Katie Greco? Can Hannah escape Skylar's manipulation and the mistakes of her past? Does her moral compass point true North when she could lose everything? Readers of Megan Abbott's Dare Me and Pretty Little Liars will love STAGECRAFT. STAGECRAFT is Glee meets Heathers meets Prep. This noir YA thriller features strong female characters, authentically illustrates the world of the high school musical, and takes a hard look at emotionally abusive relationships among teen girls.

Ribbons In Her Blonde Hair by dearpacificday

Two months into the rough whirlwind of high school, Adam Winters is already used to being the favorite target of fists and mockeries. Not everyone seems to be bugged by his quiet, eccentric nature, save for the 'pretty' ones. The ones with a comfortable background. The ones at the top. When the evidently attractive transfer becomes his seat neighbour for the rest of the semester, Adam is naturally wary---partly because of her brawny sibling in senior year, and partly because she meets all his criteria for people to avoid the most: pretty, rich, and popular. With an angelic smile, twinkling sapphire eyes and ribbons in her blonde hair, her persona screams perfection. A level he won't be able to achieve even in his quirkiest of daydreams---not like he'd ever want to. After all, despite her peculiar choice of friends and her persistent efforts to win his trust, isn't she just another potential bully? ••• (Word count per chapter: 2,300-3,000)

My Lily by Beneaththestarz

'she was his light, he was her darkness. he would do anything for her, as long as it meant he would see her smile once more. some people would say their love story is basic and overrated. but it wasn't, or at least it wasn't for them. she loved making him smile, he loved smiling for her. she loved making him laugh, he would always laugh for her. his love for her was infinite, so it was the other way around. the way they were perfect for each other. the boy who didn't talk and the girl who could talk for hours' Lily is a 17 year old girl, who has an unhealthy obsession with sunglasses, lip gloss and books. she the type of girl who every girl dreams to be, she's kind, funny, friendly, smart and absolutely gorgeous. she never believed she would ever get a relationship like in the books, she knew she would just end up heart broken, so she just kept to her two best friends Olivia and Gabi. they were the golden trio, they did everything together. they have been best friends since they could talk and they will try to keep the relationship till they die.

The Band Geek | ✔️ by worldsofella

"We shouldn't do this-- I'm leaving in a few months." "What better time to start than now." "I thought I was just a music nerd to you." "You're not a 'music nerd...' you're a band geek. My band geek." --------------------------------- Hudson Diamante is the son and heir of KD Tech, a worldwide technology company. His parents decide to home a transfer student for publicity. Alannah Parker is a girl from the UK, transferring because she's considered a musical prodigy. She has an checkered past, not letting it show by covering it with a bright smile and happy attitude. Hudson isn't too fond of this transfer student. Before he even met her, he would call her a 'band geek.' He doesn't need any distractions, and needs to focus on his school work. Imagine his shock when he realizes this 'band geek' is prettier than most girls at his school. Once Alannah arrives in sunny Los Angeles, she is attracted to Hudson, but she doesn't need another guy like him in her life. She is there for one and one reason only-- to get away. She has a gift, one which she uses to escape. Escape her life, her sadness, her problems. Once drowned in music, she drops her facade of happiness.

Glee aka great delight by RedSnow1997

That's what that means after all. By definition! My brother and I are exactly one year apart. It's high school, for the most part everyone is nice to me because I'm a cheerleader, even the coach who let's face it and pardon my language is a bitch. I don't cuss, but like that's really only the bad words I say. My brother is the QB, and we're the best of friends. No one bullies me or picks on me, but also no one knows this, I like to sing, I want to be a star, see my name in lights, Rachel is my best friend, has been for a while now, but my brother doesn't know her and he's my only other best friend. Most of the cheer girls are bitches to each other, but not no is mean to me. Even when I do end up joining the glee club, something I want to be apart of, and I've waited to join for a long time. I'm a year younger than everyone else, but I skipped a grade, and I don't know how considering I'm not even really that smart. I do not own any of these characters
