Reality sucks.
I mean, come on, we read all these romantic comedies all day long, so much that we can recite the cycle; girl bumps into bad boy who's basically a giant douche and but is actually a sweetheart with family issues. They fall in love and the girl's boy best friend chooses then to confess his oh, I don't know, fourteen year old feelings to her but it's too late.
Are we on the same page?? If you read as much as Emai Carter, then you get what I'm ranting about.
Being home schooled for the majority of primary school, Emai was given all sorts of romance books to keep her laughing. After a while, she managed to convince her mom to allow her to attend a high school. Like us, she figured that every single word spouted may just be what I call complete and utter bullshit. But Emai Carter is stubborn and set on experiencing romance in high school and at the same time, how much of high school is actually true.

Violet's Delight
"Well then. That's the first time a girl has ever rejected my close proximity," he said, eyes ablaze with a playful fire. "You better get used to it," I retorted as I spun on my heel and headed for the school doors that led to the outside. "I've never met anyone like you before," he called after me, this time, not coming after me. "I know, Romeo. I'm a special little snowflake," I called back, not turning around. "You got the 'little' part right there, Princess!" he shouted after me. I threw up my middle finger back to him and heard him laugh as I exited out the doors rather dramatically. ... I'm tired of all those high school stories about a straight-A girl student with the perfect life who falls for the stereotypical Mr. Bad Boy who wears leather black jackets and only has a soft spot for her. That's not how the real world works, sweetheart. I may look like a damsel, but I'm never in distress. ... Not me making fun of the "she's not like every other girl" trope <3 o.o :)) I like to think I'm funny. After all: #3 in amusement 10/22/22 #1 in banter 10/31/22 #3 in friendship 11/7/22Complete

I put my bowl and ingredients on the table and frowned. Did... he... just agree with me? "In the gym, in the office... and definitely in bed," he winked. Oh. There it was. He's so full of himself.
