Can't Help Falling

My mind is going crazy in the moment in time. He has me pressed against the wall, his hand slowly making its way to cup my cheek. Oh lord help me! His breathing mingles with mine. I press my hand against his chest, feeling his heart beat pound fast against his chest. Its no different than mine, though. He dips his head in closer to mine, touching our foreheads against each other. In one swift motion, he ducks his head, while at the same time, using his free hand to lift my chin. That’s when it happened. His lips met mine in a second flat, bringing all of the satisfaction I have been dreaming of into reality. My face couldn’t help but heat up. I was kissing the school badboy, Trey Matthews, and was loving every minute of it.

As all typical love stories go, there is, in fact, a bad boy who thinks he is too cool for school. There is also a goodie two shoes who everybody treats as an outsider. There is of course drama and romance that gets stirred up between the two characters, therefore, creating a huge story with fireworks blazing at each twist and turn. Is this what this story is about? Well, you'll have to read to find out.

First meet Leigh Parks. She is an optimistic person who enjoys sitting on her bed, watching episode after episode of Spongebob Squarepants, while eating Skittles (purple's her favorite). She is treated as your casual outsider, but most definitely not your usual nerd. In fact, she's far from it. Leigh hates school and can't learn for the beans of her. Not to mention the dyslexia that haunts her whenever she tries to read.

Now, there's Trey Matthews. He used to go to the same school as Leigh until he moved away 6 years ago, until now. Trey has moved back to town and back into Leigh's heart. Have I mentioned that Leigh has had a huge crush on Trey since the 1st grade? But can Leigh find love within Trey, or will his jacked up past come back to haunt him?

All Leigh knows is that she just can't help falling for the bad boy.
