Growing up, Brooklyn's mother taught her to never let a boy be her main focus--let alone control her mind or decisions . There is a scholarship to the best dance school in the country with "Brooklyn Lenae Carter" written all over it. Living up to her mother's expectations, Brooklyn risks losing one of the two things that make her happiest while keeping that thing results in losing the other.
The Books vs. The Boy

"Distractions are failures in disguise." I continued to scan the page as I tapped my pen against my teeth.

"Sometimes you have to fail in order to succeed." He slammed my book shut causing me to glare up at him.

"You have officially lost your damn mind."

ORIGINAL:The Boy With A Touch Of Cancer(BxB) by Jeanne_Wolf

"Leo pinned me against the wall with his hips; his hands gently gripping my wrists, keeping my arms above my head against the cool brick behind me. His beautiful, hazy blue eyes -that had turned straight quicksilver, again- were filled with such an intense, carnal desire I couldn't even look into them, so I looked over his shoulder. I saw a small group of kids from the group standing out by their cars who would easily be able to see what we were doing...or at least what Leo was doing to me. At that moment, my mind started wandering to all the things that I could be doing to him right now...but I stopped that train of thought, immediately, as it started heading to all the wrong places... All the dirty places... All of those places involving a very hard part of my body... I glanced back at Leo; his gaze was still as intense as it was before (unfortunately). He smirked at me and said confidently, "You can't ignore me forever, Ethan. You're eventually gonna fall for my charms..." Ethan Carter was focused on 2 things. 1. School (obviously) and 2. Getting over ex (it's proving to be, harder than he thought), but now he has to add dying to that list, and suddenly having feelings for a boy (which has happened once before, but Ethan tries to forget it). Leo Malone makes Ethan feel things he's never felt for another guy. Leo's sweet, patient, and understanding, the only problem is, he's a guy. Ethan tries to ignore the fact that his heart flutters every time he sees Leo, or that he can't ever stop thinking about him; but if having cancer has taught him one thing, it's that, "You have to live in the present, as you may not have a future."

Roller Skating Shoes by AnnaxDreamer

Lilliana McCall -- one of three triplets -- has gone through the most stupidest form of bullying. And it all relates to basically one thing: she can't roller skate. It's stupid, obviously, but when the most popular girls in school say that it's a bad thing, it just is. Lilliana had to get away from all the bullying, because she was becoming depressed and was getting deeper into a hole. She wouldn't talk to anyone, and wouldn't do anything but stay in her room. The decision her parents made was for her to move in with her favourite cousin, Harry, and his mom, Jenna. She has to move to Virginia to get away from all the bullying. Even though it might of worked, secrets are spilled, relationships are made, relationships are torn apart, and Lilliana just gets mixed up in a heap load of drama. Strap on your roller skating shoes Lilliana, this is gonna be a fun ride.

The Contrast Effect by PxnkPxnther

Dallas Donovan's parents divorced when he was six. His little sister, Tessa, went with their mom, while he stayed with his dad. It wasn't the usual messy, bitter split - quite the opposite. Both parents love their kids and co-parent peacefully. But no matter how much love remains, they can never be the family they once were. And that truth gnaws at Dallas more than he'll ever admit. He hates math with a burning passion but surprisingly loves biology - not that anyone expects the basketball star to enjoy dissecting frogs and memorizing cell structures. Then there's Kiera Davenport. The new girl. She's a walking contradiction - quiet but bold, cold but captivating. She's not a fan of any subject but somehow excels in all of them. On the field, she's Ravenwood High's star football player. Off the field, she posts dance challenges on Instagram, earning thousands of followers - and making boys practically drool. Not that she cares. Their sweet, overly optimistic biology teacher decides to play matchmaker, pairing students to help them "bond." Dallas and Kiera end up stuck together - no surprise, considering the teacher's obvious (and painfully unsubtle) attempts to ship them. The real question is: what does fate has in-store for them? Some stories are written by choice. Others - the unforgettable ones - are written by fate. --- "You're different," I muttered before I could stop myself. She blinked. "What?" I hesitated. "I mean... compared to school. You're-" I gestured vaguely at her oversized T-shirt, the ridiculous F.R.I.E.N.D.S. lyrics on it, her messy bun, the way she just-was. "Different." Something flickered in her gaze, but she just shrugged. "That's what happens when people only see what they want to see," she said simply, turning back to the stove. I didn't have a response for that. .................................... (Editing & Republishing)

Worth the Risk by KateRavenaw

August & Colin | WRU series | book 1 We take risks. We make mistakes. We lie. We love. We hurt. We lose total control. I took a risk. I paid the price. I made a mistake. I felt the guilt. I lied. I lie. I loved. I try not to. I hurt. I still do. I lost control. I'm losing again. I try to stick to my plan, I try to follow my rules, I try to silence my heart, I try to keep control of the domino stones that represent my life. But one domino fell and the rest just followed. *** "We shouldn't do this," he whispers against my lips. I should applaud him for having the strength to act on that thought because I haven't been able to. At one point I wanted to, but his touches made the impulse to stop vanish. Now, the only thing I want to act on is the longing inside my chest as I think about demolishing the space between us. "Do you want to stop?" I can feel his frown against my forehead. He nudges my nose before placing a featherlight kiss on my mouth. His hands slide over my jawline, his thumbs slowly caressing my cheeks. He gives me another kiss. Slow and deliberately, as if he's still debating the answer to my question as he slicks his tongue over mine. He softly sucks on my bottom lip, dragging it with him when he pulls away. "I can't," he confesses before he presses his lips back on mine. *** All Rights Reserved (Do not copy this story, thank you :))

AMOUR by Bajwa20

"What's stopping you from making her yours? You love her. I know you do. So what's stopping you?" I ask in genuine curiosity. Not my usual cocky tone but just me. He furrows his eyebrows and looks away like he's battling to decide if he can trust me or not. Something turns in his mind as he looks back and says, "I don't deserve her." - Roya Anderson. Denver Miller. Jordan Williams. Some secrets. Some hurt. Some love. Some relations.

Don't Play The Nice Girl: Junior Year by SBKenny

But what happens to her after she gets her heart played by an older guy? Zoe becomes just Z and her personality practically does a 180. Her straight A's fall to B's and C's. She no longer holds high respect for her teacher. Heck, she barely respects anybody over the age of 18. Z decides that no girl should get played like she did. So, she made it her high school pledge to break every player's heart at BroadRidge. She has exactly 2 years to do it. Can she do it without any hitches?

Here We Go Again {Jalex} by jstadrtyhdlm

High school was hard, but college is even harder. Jack's coping with his break up while also balancing all his classes and it's actually quite hard for him to keep up. But he has to study and keep his grades up to keep his scholarship. This was not what he had in mind at all when planning for college, but this was the hand he was given. It didn't look like he was winning this game. Alex's experience was almost the exact opposite. He was actually doing really well in the majority of his classes. He'd taken a liking specifically to his music class and also was reunited with a certain someone from his high school days. Things were steady for him, but some people just say it's the quiet before a storm. {Sequel to TMYLM}
