When Kayla McCrae was forced into a dare by her friends, she had no idea what she was in store for. They dragged her into the kissing booth and that was when her calm life turned crazy. 

Isaac Thornton had thought it would be great fun to man the kissing booth.  Of all the girls lined up that day, the only one that had him coming back for more was a surprise.
 
She was a nerdy girl in a grey cardigan. She seemed frumpy and boring against the girls he normally dated. The difference was that he could have kissed her forever; the spark between them was that intense. 


She disappeared into the school world and he couldn't find her. He couldn't believe how hard he was chasing after this girl that nobody but his sister knew.
 
He was normally the one that girls chased after, with his relationships lucky to last a week. Now this girl had him caught in her net but couldn't be found. He continued to search though.

What would to do with her when he finally found her?

Highest rank #27 in Teen Fiction. Written by @apricitys. _ _ _ "What is this?" He asked, not even bothering to look at the canvas in front of me. Instead, his eyes were locked in mine. I swallowed my saliva, chills running down my spine. I felt my palms getting sweaty as my legs nervously started bouncing up and down. Without giving me time to answer, he took a step closer to me, eyes still locked in mine. Each time he inched closer, I used my right foot to slowly push myself and the stool back. It seemed to be the only option to get away from him; until he forced his hands below the sides of my thighs, holding the stool in place. He released a soft chuckle as he eyed me from my eyes, down to my lips. "You're beautiful," he said. From his voice, I couldn't tell if he was being serious, or messing around. It sounded sincere, however there was a smirk on his face. The smirk that he always has on his face when he's found an amusing target. Then he averted his attentions back to my eyes. His expressions softened up the moment his eyes landed back on mine. His smirk disappeared. I cleared my throat and broke the eye contact. I looked down at my palms as I rubbed the sweat against my jeans, "What do you want, Landon?" I asked, almost whispering. I felt his hand brushing against my right cheek, as he tilts my chin up to look back at him. His messy brown hair, his light blue eyes and his pink soft lips were just centimeters from mine. I felt his breath lingering on the upper tip of my lip. In a panic, I pressed my palms against his chest and push him off. He stumbled back with a surprised look on his face. "Aubrey." _ _ _ Landon Carthy is an arrogant boy, who knowns to have absolutely no care in the world. Making girls suffer feels great to him. But what happens when a new girl in town becomes one of his victims? Will she allow him to walk upon her like all the other girls do?

MATURE CONTENT Enter at your own risk.... "I'm not expecting declarations of love, nor anything much, really. Hell, I don't even know if I want a relationship. But I can't deny that I want you. Really bad." I admitted it for the first time aloud. "I think it's pretty out there that we want each other, don't you?" A teasing grin played about his lips. "So what do you suppose we do about that?" I eyed his lips and sucked in my own. "Well, you're the first girl that I don't see as a one-time thing so it's not like we do it once and I can just let you go." He said. "Maybe you won't have to." I proposed. "We're both obviously not into a relationship right now, and that's why I think it would be best to keep it physical in that sense and we wouldn't damage our friendship because there was never a relationship to squash it." ******************************************************* With the inability to trust the male population, Sofia Vincenti goes into college with the thought that she would be strictly focusing on school...for a little bit anyway. Setting up her cousin/roommate, Kristina Vincenti, with Isaac Mulvaney turned out to be a little more complicated since she can't seem to get his best friend, Nathan Stone, out of her mind. He's sexy, he's sweet -- only to her --, he also just wants to be her friend. Until they realize they want each other, and begin the unhealthy relationship of a friends with benefits. The real question is: can Sofia really keep her heart out of it, or has she fallen too deep?

Not everyone who walk together reaches the destination together. Sometimes, one is left behind. Sometimes, one has to break to complete the other. Silence is love's faithful companion. Love is nothing unless felt. It shows its presence silently, waiting patiently, lurking in the shadows of hearts. All this while, the silence as its faithful companion, holds its hand and bears every sigh, every torment, every skip of a heartbeat, every joy, and every glance with it. They complete each other and yet they don't, for love demands recognition. It requires confirmation and when the love has reached its peak, it pushes the silence down. Breaks it, steps over it, and shouts to the whole world the tale of its existence. And silence, it smiles watching the whole scene. But as it is said, silence in itself is the loudest cry. "I'll always love you too, Kayla," he said smiling at me and I placed my head on his shoulder. We sat in silence with our hearts at peace and filled with content. Can silence speak?
