All her life, sixteen year-old Miabella Hathaway thought that she was as interesting as a slice of bread.

She was a typical sarcastic high school junior with a fiery passion for eating, sleeping, and procrastination. Her life consisted of nothing but those four things, and she thought her whole youth would be consumed in its boring and repetitive cycle.

But when her fashion designer Aunt invites her back to her mother's home country for the summer, she is unexpectedly mistaken for an aspiring artist who went M.I.A on her own debut stage.

Suddenly, Miabella didn't seem so plain anymore; not when an entire country's eyes and ears were pinned to her every move.

When an unkempt girl who is used to lounging around her house in her underwear is given a mic, a spotlight, and a new identity, things are bound to happen, especially when the infamously suave and arrogant trainee, Ace Sanders, is unintentionally dragged into Miabella's mess.

"Sometimes, people are too scared to do what they were created to do, so the world around them starts to take action. It hits you when you least expect it, and you can't run away from it, because it's what you wanted all along. "

A/N

Hi hi! Thank you for taking the time to view my story :)

This story in particular is very close to my heart; it involves a lot of episodes that have happened in my personal life, and very personal thoughts and feelings I've had as an emotional wreck, also known as a teenager. 

I like to think that I have a very eventful life, even though it's pretty boring most of the time, but the most random things happen to me at the most perfectly timed moments. 

So as you read about Miabella and her life-changing encounters, I hope you find something relatable in her or any of the other characters.

Prepare to laugh, to cry, and to take chances.

7 parts Ongoing
[ First Completed: 3/4/18 ] Currently undergoing revisions; slowly re-publishing as of May 2024 this is the first part of a three-part series It's a bit of a love story...and also not. Picture this: it's 2016, senior year of an average American high school. Popular kids, not-so popular kids, and the outcast. Enter Bruno Kelly Alano, a girl from halfway across the country with a personality that's earned her a variety of names - but the one she holds with pride, is "Loca." The girl everyone knows as the lunatic. Growing up with a rough life, she's led herself with a particular mindset that she's better off alone. Friends have come and gone. She's built up the armor to take a hit from the rest. Talking, communicating her deep thoughts and feelings just wasn't apart of the tricks up her sleeve. But then, like the age-old saying - he came into her life and changed it entirely. He's the sweetheart, popular kid. Not a bully, not a bystander, but someone who sticks up for others. Captain of the soccer team, everyone's looked at him as "perfect." The only oddity is for the past two years, everyone who knew him since kindergarten feel he's become much more reserved. Withdrawn. Son of some of the wealthiest people in America: Carter "Niko" Talivinci. Little did he know, hitting it off with the school "freak" would impact his life just as much. Two totally different people, from virtually two entirely different worlds. A rich boy and a lost cause. A know-it-all communicator, and a forgotten daughter. Their last year in high school, they learned much more of themselves and each other. That they could love again, heal one another's wounds, and share some outrageous memories involving the law, mental health, laughs, jerks, new friends, old friends, and much, much more. But, will love be enough to rescue her from herself?

Office enemies fight for the same promotion, while resisting their growing chemistry. LAYLA masks her insecurities behind perfectionism. The goofy girl who loved flowers and cooking for her parents is now a workaholic and out of touch with herself.

The boy who used to be nurturing and open now pretends to joke around without a care. What he doesn't share is that he might want that promotion to fulfill his own voids just like her. One thing leads to another, and the two find themselves in unprofessional settings where their masks slowly come off, showing how similar they are, and just how much they might need each other.

A fire ignites in his eyes and he pushes me off of him, my hand falling to my side. His jaw hardens and his nostrils flare. "Who are you to comment on my pain and what I should do with it? You think everyone doesn't have demons that they don't want to face? You think it's that easy right?" His voice raises an bit higher as he stares me down. "Yes, once you-" "Oh give it a break princess," he laughs cutting me off, "you think you see the world so clearly when in truth all you see is yourself!" A fire burns deep in my heart at his assumption, and I get up throwing the damp towel on the floor, "How can I see the world clearly when you've clouded my vision? All I see, hear and smell is you! And if I could only see myself, I'd see myself as a damn idiot for thinking you could be loved by me!" His eyes widen for a second before he blinks and turns away from me, facing the window.
