An object is as strong as its weakest link, but so is a person.
But then again, no one is perfect.
When you're slammed into the dark streets of life at a young age what do you do? You cope.
That's exactly what Cassandra Roqua did, she coped. No one taught her how to love, how to fight or how to be herself. She did it all on her own.
She was a hurricane disguised as a beautiful girl.
When she suddenly goes from all alone, to in all ways surrounded, how does that affect her?
Could someone such as herself possibly be, dare i say, heartless?

The Fighter
"Eli! Seriously this is ridiculous let me down!" I yell as I pound furiously on his back. "Not a chance. And don't ever wear something like that to a fight again." "It's just a tank top calm down. Can you please let me down? Your butt is in my face." "All the better for the view. Every pig in there was undressing you with their eyes." "Oh why do you even care?" Suddenly my upside down world got flipped and pinned between the wall and his body. "Because I'm the only one that should get to think of you like that." His piercing grey eyes were on fire as he held his face just above mine. "Did you drink before your fight? Because there is no way you mean what you just implied. " His tongue flickered across his lips as he smirked. "For once in your life stop fighting and just enjoy this." "Enjoy wha-" His lips crashed onto mine. Hungry, alive, full of passion I had only seen him use in the ring. I didn't want to fight him, fight this, fight his kiss. And he was right, for once in my life, I didn't. **** A Fighter is not born. A fighter is not raised. A fighter is made; only if the fight choses you, and you survive.

Black & White
A story, in which a typical teenage girl falls for the school's bad boy. Except, she's not that typical and he's not that much of a bad boy. *** "If I told you that I care about you, more than anyone in your life does, would you believe me?" He asked me, his jaw clenched. I could tell he was furious. Yet somehow, I wasn't scared of him. "No" I shook my head bravely. "If I told you,'' He tried again, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath before continuing.''That you make me so fucking mad, I want to punch a fucking wall. What would you say?" He had me trapped now, my back painfully colliding with the wall behind me. I gasped at the impact, looking up into his icy grey eyes. They were cold, emotionless. As always. "Do it!" I dared him with the last ounce of courage I had left in me. The sound of his fist smashing through the wall right next to my head, made my ears ring for a brief moment. I opened my mouth to speak again, shaking slightly, only for him to pull away and leave me standing there alone. ____ !!Warning!!

Embracing the Broken Soul (ONGOING)
"I know I shouldn't feel this way, but the moment you hugged me, my heart immediately felt at ease. It's wrong... yet it feels so right." They were meant to compete, not connect. Brianna Vienne Tuazon has always been untouchable, confident, ruthless when she needs to be, and never afraid to win. Behind her sharp tongue hides a broken soul she swore no one would ever see. Vince Alcaraz is her opposite - calm, composed, and always in control. He treats life like an equation: predictable, safe, and free from distractions like her. But when they're forced to work together, their rivalry begins to shift. The tension between them turns into something that feels dangerous and real all at once that neither of them didn't want to name. Every argument becomes a conversation. Every glance feels like a confession. And every study session teaches them something far beyond lessons and grades. She studies him to win. He studies her to understand. Until neither of them can tell the difference anymore. Because sometimes, love isn't about fixing what's broken. It's about learning to embrace it. Note: This is a work of fiction. Photo not mine.
