"Aaron..what are we?" Paige asked.
"I... don't know..." he admitted.
She nodded, turned around and walked away.
"Paige wait!" Aaron called out after her.
She refused to look back at him. Not wanting to cry in front of him to let him know she ended up falling in love.
After constant flirting in the summer Paige ended up hooking up with Aaron, the popular boy in school and her friend, which she knew she should have never done. Neither of them knew exactly what type of relationship they had. Hooking up with someone was not okay with Paige especially after her horrible break up 3 years ago and it definitely was not okay to hook up with Aaron out of everyone. Aaron was one of the nicest, flirtiest, popular and one of the most good-looking guys in Ridgewood University. Paige was beautiful (even though she didn't believe it), quiet, reserved and smart. This was different for both of them since they came from different worlds.
After finding out the truth, Christmas was right around the corner.
Paige was a normal girl. She adored Christmas.
Aaron was a popular guy. He didn't understand the purpose of Christmas.
Both volunteered at the Children's hospital which needed help during Christmas time. Now, since Paige fell for Aaron, will they get together, or will Paige have to forget about this hookup? This Christmas was different for both of them. Paige and Aaron have to work together to decorate the hospital. Paige, the girl who adored Christmas is not enthusiastic this year. The guy who knew nothing about Christmas makes sure to make it special for Paige.
Will there be a Christmas Miracle for Paige and Aaron this Christmas?

12 Days of Christmas
"Here's the deal," he began. "I know you don't feel the same way about me, and I know that it's very possible that you'll never return the feelings I have for you. That's why I've come up with a solution to satisfy us both." "I'm listening," I responded, admittedly a bit intrigued. "Today is December 14 which would be exactly twelve days before Christmas. Are you familiar with the classic Christmas song, '12 Days of Christmas'?" he questioned. I chuckled, shaking my head at his absurd question. "Uh, who isn't?" "Well then, here's my proposition for you: For exactly twelve days, you let me be your boyfriend," said Joey. "Joe, I-" "And before you say no," he said, cutting me off, "I think both of us could benefit from this deal. Know why? This would be my one chance to make you fall for me. If you don't by the time Christmas rolls around, then I'll leave you alone or we'll go back to the way things used to be - me and you, best friends and only best friends." He took a shaky breath before adding, "Besides, we're not really running the risk of 'ruining the friendship' since, and forgive me for the harsh words, but the friendship is already ruined so..." "Well... What exactly would we be doing for twelve days?" I inquired. "Well, since you asked, we'd be going on dates, doing stuff that would make you fall for me, and most importantly, we'd act like a couple. To summarize, you'll be getting the full boyfriend experience," he chuckled with a proud grin plastered across his face. "Interesting proposition, Joey," I complimented, giving him a little dorky applause. "I'm in. Your chance to prove yourself to me starts... now." Without saying another word, he wrapped his arms around my waist, drawing me close, and he brought his lips to mine. - Cover by: @guiaong - ~ 12 Days of Christmas ~ 05/31/17 - 10/08/17 Edited: 08/08/20 - 08/24/20Complete
His Sweet Lies
Her brows furrowed. "You look like you have something specific you wanna ask me." The tips of Liam's ears turned red at Emma's very accurate observation. "I, uh... I usually just bullshit my way through projects, so I have no idea what the hell I'm doing." The corners of Emma's lips formed a small smile. Liam arched his brow. "What are you smiling at?" Her smile widened. "Nothing." Ever since Emma started going to Silver Creek High, she's been bullied over her discolored eyes. It all started when a boy brought attention to her in biology class one day, laughing at her and calling her a "freak" while the rest of the class laughed along with him. She never looked at him or saw his face; she just ran out of the room crying. She was now an outcast labeled as a freak and she wanted nothing more than to just disappear. She felt she had no purpose in life. Until her sophomore year when she fell in love with Liam, the guy every girl wanted; the guy every dude wanted to be. He had stolen her heart and she now wanted nothing more than to be with him. Unfortunately, Liam seemed to want nothing to do with Emma. He seemed to be straight up avoiding her. They never interacted for 3 whole years. That is, until now in their senior year, when they get paired up for a school project. The two must put their differences aside and try to work as a team. But as they spend more time together, feelings grow deeper, and secrets start to rise to the surface.

How will their completely different lives allow, or prevent them from getting what they want? Expect some drama, flirty lines, steamy scenes, funny best friends, and perhaps, an overall epic love connection. ~ Carter came around the corner as his eyes darkened with a predatory gaze. Oh no. He took a step forward, minimalizing the distance with every dominating stride, as I froze in my spot. My breath hitched as his arms finally encircled my waist and his eyes locked with mine. In one swift motion, he flipped my body so my back was pressed against his chest and hands gripped the curve of my hips. "What game are you trying to play at Valerie?" he spoke in a husky voice. Goosebumps danced along my skin as his hot breath fanned against the shell of my ear and his fingertips lit a trail of blazing heat along the length of my arm. Mentally shaking myself from the trance of that which is Carter Bryson, I tilted my head towards him and whispered; "One where you'll lose." Quickly escaping his hold on me before the tension became unbearable, I spun on my heel to face him and slowly backed away towards the exit. "Good luck though." I added mischievously. With a smirk and a devilish glint in his eyes that could even give hell a run for its money, he replied; "I'm not a player though, baby. I'm the gamemaker." ~ ❗️Mature content.

Secret Santa ✔️
"You had no right to do that," I snap, trying my best to out walk him. His chuckle was loud behind me and his hand griped on my forearm, stopping me. Something about his warmth gave me chills all over my body. Something I don't think I ever wanted in the first place. Especially from him and especially now. "Yes I did, and I still do." His hard grip around my arm loosened, and snaked up to lock his fingers through my hair. Oh Momma, what is happening? Being this close to him has been happening way too often for normal. Still, I couldn't break away from this close contact, I was frozen, shocked. "What makes you think that?" My question hit him with humor, and instead of fully responding, he leans his face closer to mine. The smirk on his face stayed once he noticed the affect he had on me. "Because," he whispers out pressing our bodies together. "I'm your Secret Santa," he licks his lips as if he's hungry, then continues, "I can give you anything I want to give you."
