Lola Castaneda never imagined herself managing the boys baseball team. She never imagined finding a family in those boys. And she never imagined herself falling for the wrong boy. 

Lola's day started off as normal as one should be: being stalked by her best friend's sister. As far as Lola was concerned, that was pretty normal. What she wasn't expecting, though, was to be approached by Taylor Harris, the definition of everything right in the world. She knew him because of her best friend, Sophie Jones. Since Sophie was the manager for the boys baseball team, Lola knew most of the baseball boys. It still surprised her that Taylor would talk to her, inviting her to the baseball group chat that included Sophie. 

It surprised her even more when her own sister asked her to fill in the vacant managers spot. 

Lola wanted to say no. Everything in her being told her to say no. She just didn't know why she said yes. Now her days were filled with watching the boys practice and fetching their gear, which was a little demeaning. She went along with it anyway since it would be a great addition for scholarships related to baseball. 

While being the manager, she befriended the worst player on the team -- Noah Dawson. He was always getting made fun of behind his back, so she decided to cheer him up by baking some cookies. That resulted in her almost killing him because she put peanuts in them. She thought he would hate her forever, but they became best friends after that incident.

In such a short time, these boys became her family. And then the unimaginable happened: Lola was denounced from the managers spot. After that, everything fell apart. Until the home run kiss.

She wanted to test a theory. He wanted to win a bet. What could possibly go wrong? ------------------------------------------------- Why was this shit so much easier in the books?! The Macy Anderson in me would spit out the alternatives to every curse word known to man. The Ruby Buchannan in me would knee him in the groin. The Mia Hastings in me would lunge at him first, taking him on that table right there and now. The Haley Geller in me would confuse the fuck out of him by asking way too many questions. Hell! Even the Tessa Young in me would do something, like beg him to come at me with her desperate but wild ass... But the Lola Dino in me -aka the me, me- just stands there frozen, contemplating a very important decision in her head: fuck, fuck, fuck! Who do I act as next?! Um, how about yourself for a change? My conscience decides NOW to be a smartass. Yeah, right? Like that's ever worked before. Not even having the slightest clue of what to do, I wait for him to make the first move instead, and then I'll just go from there. So, I wait. And I wait. And I wait. And I wait. I wait as we remain staring at one another -I like a deer in headlights and he like a predator stalking his prey- for what seems like forever. But when his ripped, muscular frame finally charges at me, his strong tattooed hand instantly meeting the back of my head, he crashes my lips onto his so forcefully that I'm now just left with one thought and one thought only: Lola Dino, what the hell did you just get yourself into? ------------------------------------------------- *WARNING: Contains mature content including language, sex, violence, and drugs.

A/N: I wrote this story when I was 15 it will definitely not the best thing you have ever read but I feel like I won't be editing it just as a reminder. This story takes place in a small town called Kingston Hill. It's the classic story of a boy meets girl, but it isn't easy. At first everything was platonic but grew. Some things happened and some things went wrong. Loss, heart ache, and plenty of emotional pain. Read on to experience the wonderful relationship of the core four, house of cards, high school royalty, known by plenty of names, you'll learn that nothing is ever perfect, difficulties happen and to this group of friends there is plenty of them. ------------ "I want you to kiss me" She said looking down at me "Is that all you want?" I questioned, my voice low and seductive. I wanted her in every way possible but I knew I couldn't tell her that because now wasn't the time. "I want you to kiss me like it's the first time in forever" She whispered breathlessly and that's exactly what I did. I stood up and dropped my hands to her waist and pulled her into me, I looked into her eyes down to her lips before leaning down to press my lips to hers. First it started slow and sweet before I grew hungry for more making my stomach explode with fireworks as I wrapped my arms around her waist and felt her arms slither around my neck. ------------ (This has switch POVs sometimes third, sometimes first it really matters how it feels with the chapter) Warning- story has some sexual suggestions, and sensitive topics such as miscarriage, depression, stalkers, and drug addiction.

In which I fall in love with my brother's best friend. ***** "Don't pretend like you don't feel anything." His voice is low, sending shivers down my spine. "What do you mean?" "You know damn well what I mean." "I don't know what you're talking about." I pretend to ignore him, flipping some pages in my book. "Come on. I have all these assignments waiting. Aren't you supposed to teach me tonight?" "It depends on what you want me to teach." He smirks, his voice sounding even more dangerous. ***** I thought that my brother was the most popular guy in school, but as soon as I step into my university life, I realize how wrong I was. Meet Vaughn Cooper, his best friend. The guy is the epitome of every girl's dream. Godlike handsome. The quarterback. He's got the looks, and he's got the brain. Come on, he's got the scholarship to one of the most prestigious universities in the country, while I have just barely passed the entrance examination after long years of struggle during high school. How could a guy who worked that hard and deserves nothing more but adoration be labeled as a bad boy? Yeah, the answer is simple. The moment we lock eyes, I realize something as I stare into those piercing, amber eyes. He's not every girl's dream. He's every girl's nightmare. In my case, MY nightmare. Calm down, heart.

"Okay, you know what? You're such a jackass and I never should have kissed you," I say. Colton stands up. His green eyes are just as angry as mine are. "Then why did you?" he asks. "I don't know!" I yell. "Why did you kiss me back?" "Hey, you kissed me," Colton says. "We already established that! God! It's like talking to a wall. Whatever I say just fucking bounces right off of you!" I yell. "Do you have any idea how maddening you are?" Colton looks at me. "You don't think you're infuriating?" Colton asks. I narrow my eyes. He starts to walk towards the door. I grab the M&M's and chuck them at Colton. He whips around, his eyes blazing green. "Where the fuck are you going? We're talking!" I yell, crossing my arms. He rubs the back of his neck where the M&M's hit him. "You wanna talk? Fine. Let's talk," Colton says. "You're obviously messed up from all of the shit your mom did." "Maybe I am! It's not your fucking business!" I pause. "Why do you even care? You're just some manwhore, right? A fuckboy?" Colton laughs dryly. "Is that what you think I am?" he asks.

"Her troubled eyes held fire. The kind of fire that was capable of burning me to ash." ***** I grabbed her chin with my free hand, making her look at me. "I hate that I don't know you. I hate not being a part of your life, like I was before." I leaned a little closer, as her intoxicating scent filled my lungs. "Trust me, I can't hate you, no matter how hard I tried." "So you have... " It came out as more of a question than a statement from her as she looked at me with her big blue eyes. "What?" I frowned, dropping my hand from her chin and grabbing her hand, instead. "You have tried hating me then?" She asked, tilting her head to the side. This time it sounded more like a statement than a question. "I have." I sighed, dropping my head in shame. "And it made me lose the most important person in my life." ***** One night. What harm can one night do? It can change lives. Turn best friends into enemies. Turn someone's life upside down. Emily Waters and Ryder Green, were inseparable, joint to the hip, always had each others back and loved each other behind the best friend facade. But one night changed it all.

An internal voice whispered, "Call him." But I chose not to. I dismissed it once more, saying, "He never liked me anyway." Yet the dilemma lingered. "But maybe he does. The way he looks at you... it's different." Out of nowhere, he glanced my way. My heartbeat quickened, sending shivers down my spine. I averted my gaze, pretending to look around. "Has he noticed me? No, wait-oh my god." --- After switching high schools, Nina discovered a new way of life. She fell in love, made wonderful friends, and everything seemed perfect.
