Ellie has lived in Santa Barbara her entire life with her parents and lovely friends. She's had a simple life with no complications and has always kept it that way. In her junior year of high school, she's a little bored of the same old life and is willing to gamble her comfort zone for some fun experiences. And what could be more fun than falling in love?

Zach has finally come back home after two years at a boarding school in England and this sweet little troublemaker has come back ten times worse. With a cigarette dancing between his lips, he screams trouble louder than he ever has before. Coming back into town, he's hoping to reunite with his friends. 

Nathan, Brett, Spencer, Ashley, and Ellie. 

After finding out that sweet little Ellie is looking for some fun, Zach offers her a bet. If he wins, she has to live with him for a month, in which he guarantees to make her fall in love. If she wins, he'll leave her alone for good. 

Their history of being best friends can't repeat itself. Not this time. This time, there's more to the two than just friends.

This time they're going to bet on it and gamble for love.

Itˋs All In My Head by writtenbyjelo
5 parts Ongoing
Jolene was an average girl. Some would say there was absolutely nothing special about her. Yes, she was smart, but thatˋs pretty much it. Her looks werenˋt special, neither was she significantly good in sports or music. She was simply Jo, and she was totally fine with it. With two close friends by her side, she just tried to get past this last year of high school with no drama or anything that could possibly draw too much attention to her. Ashton OˋConnor though, was the complete opposite. He was the king, the kind of son parents would dream about. Handsome, tall, just perfect. He had everything... almost everything. Ashton wanted one specific girl, but in order to get her, he needed to change and show her that heˋs not the spoiled asshole she thinks he is. So, Ashton started to befriend Jo again, trying to manipulate her to help him get his crush on his side. In Joˋs eyes, Ashton was the long-lost best friend she used to have a couple of years ago. In Ashtonˋs eyes, Jo was just the annoying little daughter of her motherˋs best friend, with whom he was forced to play as a child. Jo was not a nerd. She was not the quiet girl, neither was she popular. Joˋs just Jo, and slowly, this fact started to get to Ashton in ways he could have never imagined.

"Never call a girl a bitch," I glared into his eyes as he opened them, piercing into me, the bright blue drink I had just poured over him still dripping from his dark hair. "Or she just might act like one." I gave him one last sarcastic smile before pushing by him and walking away, practically strutting. Well, this year will be fun... • • • • Crystal Summers; a self-proclaimed expert in all things sarcastic and the human embodiment of destructive decisions. Trying to get away from her troubled past, she moves with her mom to California to start a new life, and potentially not screw this one up. There, she quickly meets Scarlett and Savanah, her new-found partners in crime, and her life finally begins to feel normal again for the first time in years. But she just so happens to also collide with the school's sexy, notorious jackass, Ashton Monroe.. and his pack of asswipes. She loathes him, and the feeling is mutual. But as the poets say, the line separating love and hate is a very thin one. And often times, when two people hate each other, it can grow into much more. Hopeless devotion, if you will... • • • • !!!TRIGGER WARNING!!! • slight mention(s) of suicidal concepts • substance abuse, addiction, anxiety, PTSD • sexual assault, domestic abuse • strong language and mature scenes • • • •

I turn around and look into his blue eyes, searching them. When I'm certain that he's not lying, butterflies erupt in my stomach and I gulp audibly. His fingers move from playing with the tips of my hair to my cheeks. I wrap my arms around his neck and pull him closer. His other hand moves from my waist to my jawline and he trails his thumb along my bottom lip. He pulls my face closer until I can smell his minty breath. His eyes close and so do mine. My head tilts to the side slowly and I feel his lips on mine. *** Natalie Bennett: a sassy 17-year-old, who, after leaving her home in Paris, starts at Lakewater high in America. Natalie is humble, sarcastic and smart, funny and forgiving. She complains when she has to wear dresses, heels and make-up and she can't stand annoying fake girls.

She looks up at me, taking a step forward and smiling slightly, "How can I ever get hurt when I have you here to protect me?" "But you could have gotten hurt," I murmur softly, hanging my head and feeling my shoulders drop, the tension seeping from my body. "No. Stop," She cuts me off sternly but tenderly, "Don't talk like that, Reece. I'm okay, you're okay, we're okay," She speaks softly, reaching her hand up to gently brush her thumb over my cheek, just under the cut that's there. "We're okay," I repeat, taking a small step closer to her. She nods with a small smile, moving her hand down from my cheek and instead placing the palm of her hand on my chest, right over my heart. I know she can feel how fast my heart is beating. I just don't know why it's doing that. ~ Reece Carter is the bad boy of Northwood High. He smokes and he fights.
