Charity has grown up on her own, afraid of the world and unsure of her place in it. Seth is a loner and a steady presence in her life after bailing her out of trouble more than a few times. He's willing to take the leap for her, but it's going to take time for her to figure out what she wants. Everything ebbs and flows, and everything can change in a single moment.

"So where does that leave us?"
"Friends with benefits?"
He smirked, his fingers curling around mine. He lifted my hand to his lips and kissed my knuckles, my palm, the inside of my wrist. "No thank you. I would like you to be my girlfriend."
"What's the point?" I asked, trying not to focus on the soft pecks he was applying to my skin. "So we can go to the pizza parlor on Fridays and make out in the corner? Watch a movie and hold hands? Walk on the beach and talk about how difficult geometry is? Dating is dumb. We can be friends in public and do whatever we want to do in private. I don't like my private life being public anyway."
He hummed against the top of my hand. "Are you struggling with geometry? I can help you with that."
I swatted his knee. "That was not the point of that."
"I'm just saying." He winked. "But no, I don't want friends with benefits. Because I want people to know we're together. I want people to know that if they need to find you, they should look for me. I want people to see how happy you are and know that I did that. I won't pretend you're just my friend in public if you mean more than that to me."

Pranking The Bad Boy
"What the hell?! Kennedy!" I watch as Ryder turns around furiously and strides towards me. Oh oh. Maybe I took it too far... "What's wrong with you?! Did you really have to cover my car in pink sticky notes?!" He steps towards me and I take a step back. He steps forward again and I step back until I'm up against the wall. "Well if you would have left me alone when I told you to, I wouldn't have had to do it," I fire back. He chuckles. "You don't know what you just got yourself into." "What do you mea--" I get cut off by his lips on mine. I freeze. What was happening? And why did it feel so good? Ryder grabs my waist and pulls me closer to him. I wrap my arms around his neck and tangle my fingers in his hair. He bites down on my bottom lip softly. As I was about to part my lips, he pulls away. "Better watch your back," he says. He smirks at me and then turns around to leave. What just happened? ____________________ Kennedy is not like most girls. Instead of getting her nails done and gossiping, she would rather ride her motorcycle or dive jump. She didn't have any friends back at her old school, but will that change when she attends a new one? She meets the bad boy of the school, Ryder. One harmless prank of pouring some pudding over his head starts a whole other war. They prank each other and start to realise that they might have feelings for the other person and the other person might have feelings for them.

Serena
I look at him with bewilderment. Emotion floods through me as he looks at me with boredom lacing his eyes. His entire body is calm as he leans against the brick walls and stares down at me. " Oh yeah? Then why did you ignore me today after that moment at the beach? " I say crossing my arms. " What fucking moment? We were all just having some fun. I didn't ignore you, I was busy getting ready for my date. I didn't know the princess needed attention twenty-four seven. " This whole time I have been imagining things? Imagining that he feels the same electricity I do? Growing angry , I take a step forward and our noses barely touch. " Princess? " 2022 #1 in LustComplete

Don't Test Me
Slowly, he lifted his head and kissed my chin. I didn't respond, I just continued to stare out the window. He moved his hands from my hips up to my neck and continued to kiss my chin and cheeks sensually. I was sure he was trying to be sexy and romantic but it wasn't interesting to me. He trailed his lips up to my mine and started to kiss and nibble on my bottom lip. I moved my face to the other side in a silent attempt to get away. "Why are you like this? Just kiss me, Margot." He whined. I glanced above myself into his face, "I told you Seth, I'm not into it. I don't want to kiss you." He sighed heavily and leaned his face into my neck, "I don't understand you. I've tried to do whatever you wanted, I don't get it. I just want to make you happy. I want to make you come." I chuckled, "I've never gotten off with you. You know that." It came out cruel, which I hadn't intended on. It wasn't his fault that I didn't seem to respond to him, he tried all kinds of things but it just didn't do anything for me. Seth looked down at me, his face was full of hurt, "I think I love you, you know." I shook my head, "No you don't. Trust me, this isn't love. This is just sex." I pushed up on his chest, motioning for him to get off of me and pull out. He did as I requested, shifting onto his haunches so I could pull myself over to the other side of the back seat. I pulled my shirt down and pick up my jeans from the floor of the car. "I can love you if I want to." He muttered as he pulled his own clothes onto his body. He had taken the condom off, tied it and threw it out the window. I tugged my hair up into a pony tail and glared at him, "You can, but I would advise against it. I don't love you, Seth and I'm not going to."Complete
Madly In Love
"Boyfriend?" He questions. I giggle, he's talking about Nick. "If he is...would there be a problem?" I test him with no hesitation. His eyes widening and I can see the fiery glare he is giving me through those green eyes, his jaw clenching. He grabs me by the waist and pushes me close to him. My boobs suddenly hits his abs and he quietly groans. "What are you doing?" My voice is slightly higher than my original tone. "Why did you decide to wear this dress?" He inquired. I scoffed and then looked at him. He was serious. _________________________________________ Avery James is a beautiful girl, hell even a woman.

"You won't choke me when you come out, right?" She smiles, what a tease. "Stop it," I warn her.
