basement bush glasses grass past rolling rosh taser tessa

Tessa Hest was the kind of girl who acted like a lady, but was in every single way 'guy-ish'. She sure as hell handled everything differently. Sure, she wasn't a beauty queen, but she was liked by every guy on campus. She talked to and became friends with every guy she knew...

Including her own crush, Rosh Crain.

But, because of a series of twisted events and misunderstandings, she acted shy and distant. Even to her group of friends. Especially to boys. Slowly, her charm faded in the boys' eyes, and she became a regular teenage girl again, this time, the kind who didn't care about the male race.

Rosh, on the other hand, tries to change all that. Her constant no's won't stop him. He'll do it despite Tessa's stubbornness. Little by little, he brings back "Tessa Most Lovable." Little by little...

He falls in love with her.

21, Male, Virgin. by LJAbrams

Eden's eyes widened in surprise and she looked away from him, he knew he should change the subject. As he opened his mouth she spoke. "I don't fool myself with the illusion that anybody is there for me, except for Sienna, she's never left my side, but I don't like to get caught up in feelings and emotions, that's why I don't mind sex, it relieves my urges, distracts me and makes me feel good for a while, not negative, or angry, it is pure pleasure, no strings attached. Once you start attaching those strings, you risk feeling lonely. I like being careless, being free." Logan shifted over, to sit next to her, putting his arm around her and she looked up at him. "Everybody is scared of something." She looked intently in his eyes. "What are you scared of Logan Samuels?" Their faces were up close to one another, lips inches apart, and her eyes half closed, as they both felt the magnetism between their bodies. Logan gulped. "I'm scared of a lot of things Eden. Being abandoned, losing people I care about. Failing. Love," he paused and looked down at her lips, "You." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Logan Samuels was a twenty one year old virgin. Some would say by choice others would say accidentally. He just couldn't see himself sleeping with a girl he didn't love, no matter how much lust or attraction there was. Logan had many failed attempted and official relationships because of this little factor. Girls never wanted to believe him when he admitted to being untouched and many thought it a pick-up line or sad attempt at playing hero. Heart broken? perhaps not but hurt and a bit secretive about his innocence Logan has lost faith in girls. That is until the seemingly 'loose' EdenDe la Roux comes along and makes him question why he could ever say no to a girl. Will Logan give in? or Will De la Roux find there are more to men than their never ending lust. And can two people who seem so opposite in mind set find love?

Flowers and Pop Rocks by daniiiwrites

"Dude, can you let me sit?" Caleb questioned, pointing at the seat beside mine. Blake narrowed his eyes. "No thanks. I'm sitting here today." "What?" "You heard me. I'm sitting here today," Blake repeated, his hands balling into fits at his sides. I grabbed his arm, not wanting a repeat of last time. If that happens again, there was a good chance Blake would get expelled. ~~~ All Poppy Williams wanted was to get through Senior year without any problems.

Here, that twist is Caleb Harris, the new kid, who earned Poppy's attention the moment he sat on her seat in class. He wanted his Pop Rocks, and he surely wasn't going down without a fight. Had someone only warned Poppy about her absolute whirlwind of a Senior year, maybe she wouldn't catch herself in such a pickle.

Bar Red's Redemption ✔ by STESLARA

"If you turn your back to me again, you better be bending over, sweetheart." *** Everyone warns you about boys who go looking for troubles, who have bruised knuckles and split lips, whose eyes are so dark that it seems like they could swallow oceans and come out alive, about the boys who look like danger, but no one warns about boys who stay silent for way too long, or ones with rings under their eyes, boys with sad eyes and boys who whisper things so sweet, so quietly that you wonder if he was an angel. Everyone warns you about the bad boys, but no one seems to warn you about the broken ones. Bar Red was a broken boy who finally finds someone to help mend his scattered pieces. Everyone saw him as the untrustworthy, unstable beast who was more than willing to punch anyone's face in. Swear words and bad habits mixed with smirks and wicked grins are enough to ward anyone off. But, apparently for Clementine, that's exactly what pulls her in. She has no clue what she's getting into but she's about to find out. She wasn't innocent, not by far, but she had dignity, a warm aura, niceness, and stubbornness that could rival a mule. Mix that with Bar's possessiveness and overprotective behavior, some interesting situations will definitely arise. Adding in the fact that Clementine had to tutor Bar for the rest of the school year and his almost instinctual urge to be apart of her life, they are bound to get close. Bar swears, Clementine hates it. He fights, she glares while bandaging up his knuckles. She reads instead of eats and he refuses dinner until she joins him. He is rude and she ignores him until he apologizes. Both, easily, frustrate the other while simultaneously falling into love. Broken boys are the only ones that can fix themselves so will this broken boy manage to do so before he drives away the one girl who wiggled her way past every barrier? This is the story of a broken bad boy clashing with the sad good girl. * #1 in the Red series Stand alone

His Sunshine | ✓ by pink_flamingo_09

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. He has countless tattoos covering his body. And he doesn't care about anything or anyone else.

When these two cross paths accidentally in an unusual way, they leave and never expect to speak to each other again. But fate has other plans.

And he protected her from everyone who tried to hurt His Sunshine. Get ready for a story filled with bad pick-up lines, twin telepathy and a lot of fighting. Like, a LOT. Thanks for that one, Reece.

Playing A Dangerous Game by DialngCreatvty

"That's not something you mess around with." I say to her and she just rolled her eyes. "It's not like he's going to fall for it anyway." She looked at her baby pink nails. "Then why do you-" "Because," She snapped looking away from her nails to me. "He needs to know how it feels to fall in love and then have your heart ripped out of your chest and just feel like you're dying inside." She clenched her fingers into a fist. "Plus you don't believe in love anyway so it should be a piece of cake to keep your end unattached." "Yeah whatever." Monica Roth wasn't exactly the new girl but she wasn't exactly popular either. Her best friend Destiny Hamilton was a cheerleader but wasn't exactly in on the it crowd. They both seemed to keep to each other until one day the head cheerleader Madison Valentine comes up to Monica asking her a favor. A favor to play a game with the school's newest hottie. Derek Reid.

So when she gets asked to play the game of love with Derek she literally can't say no.

Let's be Together by verenawrites01

A kiss can change everything. One kiss with your best friend, and it changes the whole dynamic. What will you do when you get to know that your best friend has been in love with you? What will you do when she doesn't want to be friends anymore and wants more instead? * "Everytime I see you with a guy, my skin fucking burns" Millie hisses, pinning me with an intense look that makes my belly flip. I am pinned to the wall with her caging me. "Do you know how hard it is to pretend that you are only my friend, and nothing more? That I love you but cannot have you?" Her words spin inside my head, and the thundering beating of my heart echoes in my ear. How do we come to this situation? I pant as she leans closer, her eyes averting to my parted lips. I am having thoughts of kissing her. Hell, I see her in my dreams so often now that I am not sure what she means to me now. Millie caresses my cheeks and a shiver runs down my spine. "I can't pretend anymore, Grace. It's getting really hard" she whispers in my ear and I squirm. When she meets my eyes, I say something that surprises her. "Then don't." I crash my lips on hers, crossing whatever lines we had.
