"Because Gabe falling in love with a girl like me would have to be because of the magic of Christmas."

Averi Griffin checks off every box in the 'school nerd' category: 
Class valedictorian? Check. 
Loves to study and learn? Check. 
Glasses? Check. 
Never had a boyfriend? Check. 

Gabe Marshall is the opposite in every, single category. 
Class valedictorian? Gabe can't even spell valedictorian, but he can spell basketball. 
Loves to study and learn? Study basketball plays, maybe. 
Glasses? He's pretty sure if he ever found out his vision wasn't perfect, he'd go for contacts. 
Never had a girlfriend? He'd been dating the same girl for the past three years and if she ever broke up with him, there were dozens of girls lined up, ready to take her spot. 

The two don't have a single thing common. 
Nothing. 
Zip. Zilch. Zero. 

Until, unbeknownst to the two of them, they're hired at the same Christmas village, playing Santa Claus and the elf. 

Quickly, completely unexpectedly, the two become fast friends and, before long, partners in more than one way.

Christmas miracles happen all of the time, but is there one big enough to bring two people together who have nothing in common?All Rights Reserved

Holly Garland on Santa's Lap by SylviaDeLorme

Once upon a time, I was your typical good girl, doing my job like a total elf star, no complaints. Even with the little "gift" I was born with (aka my disability), I handled life pretty well. But let me tell you, luck's never been my plus-one. What am I talking about? Oh, just my lovely name-and the Christmas curse that comes with it! Every year, without fail, while my family's out decking the halls, I'm over here getting snowed under with the worst disasters. So, yeah, all I want for Christmas is for this nightmare of a season to be over. But this year? Oh, I've really hit the Christmas tree topper. Ever since I plopped myself down on Santa's lap at my office party and made a special wish, it's been one yule disaster after another! And now, I'm stuck in this sleigh ride from hell with that red-suited nightmare, forced to follow him wherever he jingles. Sure, he might be a total angel under that fake beard-mysterious and all-but I'm not about to let myself get wrapped up like some Christmas present under the tree. My brain's still in one piece, thanks. So, seriously, sweet baby Jesus, how did a nice executive assistant like me end up sleighing through this wild holiday misadventure full of danger, romance, and all the holly jolly chaos of Christmas?!

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. Derek used to believe in love, it's what he lived and breathe for. Until he watched his mother become a slut because of it. The one thing he thought was so beautiful and the cure all to mans problems no longer exist. He became cold and heartless to anyone who didn't deem themselves worthy in his eyes. He played games with girls hearts, cause them to fall in love and literally break their hearts when he doesn't return the affection. He's just that type of guy. What makes Monica stand out from anyone else was the fact she's never been in love. She didn't believe in it, her parents never fell in love. She lives with her mom during the week and her father every now and then. It just something she's never witnessed so she didn't believe in it, to her it was just a myth. So when she gets asked to play the game of love with Derek she literally can't say no.

The Break by nereaxo

Sofia's fairytale teen romance wasn't running as smoothly as it should be - at least not according to all the romance books she reads. She got the older, smooth talking half-spanish player George and thought that she had put an end to his girl-filled past. Yet he wasn't playing the part of a faithful boyfriend well and she realises that he is bored. Caring too much for him to see him suffer for her own wants, she poses the idea of a break: secretly hoping they will reunite at the end. But what happens when he goes straight back to his old ways like nothing ever changed? Will George come back to her or will it really be over for them and simply be a high school romance? And since when did Sofia have a secret admirer?

Bad vs Bad by LukesPubicHair

Colton glared at her. "Not in a million years would I ever date you." Maya is the new girl and she has an odd description; bitchy, careless, funny, and sometimes sweet. But then on the first day of her new school, she meets a boy named Colton. He's described the same as Maya, but he's a player, popular, obnoxious, cocky, mean, and utterly insane about parties and girls. One day, Colton challenges Maya to see whose the baddest of them all. That leads to their relationship growing closer and closer. What will sum up if the two were meant to be, but suffer from their pasts? -WARNING- I WROTE THIS WHEN I WAS IN 6TH GRADE AND I PROMISE MY WRITING HAS IMPROVED BYe

The Loner Girl by newfiebear

"Are you Gabriel Trudeau?" she said, studying my face. "It's just Gabe." I corrected her. "And you are?" "I'm Aiden, I'm your tutor." "Things just got interesting." Owen said from behind me ......................... Gabriel Trudeau is funny, sarcastic, over dramatic, and a fairly good guy that is hard not to love. Oh and he is also failing French and English class. Aiden Barkley is shy, insecure, lonely, and sweet once you get to know her, the problem is just that no one tries to. And by the way, she is fluent in French and has the highest English marks in their grade. In an attempt to help Gabe pass his two hardest classes, Aiden gets assigned to be his tutor, but Gabe soon suspects that Aiden's shy, distant personality must have a reason behind it, one she prefers to hide. Will the school's loner girl eventually open up about her past to Gabe? Or will he end up accidently pushing her away?

Hidden Desire by authorvioletbloom

It's been thirteen years since Tyler has seen Mikey for more than just a handful of minutes in a passing visit. A ten year age difference hadn't stopped her crush, not after the fateful day he'd saved her life; he'd been home for Christmas, visiting his sister Val, who's married to Tyler's older brother, Reggie. Val had given birth to their first baby on Thanksgiving, and that Christmas was the first time Mikey was coming home to see him. As Tyler had been leaving the house, she'd slipped on the ice, hitting her head and knocking herself out. If Mikey hadn't found her when he did, rushed her to the emergency room, she would have died of hypothermia. That's when her obviously unreciprocated crush had started. She'd known him all her life. She was nothing more than his best friend's kid sister, the one he barely saw since making it to the N.B.A. and having spent the last ten years playing out in California. But he's home now, having been traded to Washington, the same city Tyler just happens to be going to school in. At twenty-one can she finally catch his attention? Can she finally tell him about her crush? The one she's had for the last five years. Will he ever see her as anything other than his best friend's little sister?

Christmas Wonder (RotG) by CaetlynoftheStars

Christmas isn't the same for you as it was when you were a child. Not as magical, very anticlimactic. You long to get back the Christmas magic you had as a kid-the joy of childhood-and have been trying your best to. Unexpectedly, Santa (North) knocks on your door and offers to help you get your Christmas wonder back, as he does with chosen adults every year, by letting you help deliver Christmas this holiday season. You accept the offer. But as you get into Christmas preparation, you discover that delivering Christmas and getting your wonder back is going to be much harder than you thought. (This is a romance-free reader-insert.) *I also upload this story on Quotev, DeviantArt, and ArchiveofOurOwn under the same username. *This story has 14 chapters, and I will be uploading them all before Christmas. I will upload seven today (December 23rd CST) and seven tomorrow (December 24th CST), posting about one per hour, unless other responsibilities come up and I have to take a break and upload at a later time that day. If it becomes late enough, I may post multiple chapters at once. I will do this until all the according day's chapters are posted. *Merry Christmas!

Love △ by book0geek

Grace was never really popular but she didn't mind. Everything seems so simple... that is until two guys ask her to homecoming. Gabe: the hot jock who was too kind to be a real human and Noah: who hates labels. He is good at sports and incredibly smart. Grace is fighting her brain on who she will say yes to... and the one she'll have to break their heart. In this story Gabe and Noah find themselves going into their past they would rather keep behind them and Grace finds beauty and new friendships and the truth about herself she isn't ready to share.
