Just a Dare

Life. Death. They're both just concepts, no? Just like a game, life has an objective that just leads you to death. So what's the point? That's what 19-year-old Naomi Winters thought, until she saw him again. Her high school rival and ex-crush.

Nathan Grey, the typical player, typical bad boy that everyone falls for. Except for her. Naomi has never hated anyone more than him.

He notices everything about her. Her jade green eyes, her chocolate brown hair. Yet they hate each other's guts.

Nathan is determined to get her attention and unveil the deep secrets she's hiding after a party encounter and a dare. Will he fail? Or will he succeed?

EXCERPT

"Well it was just a dare, right Nathan?" Naomi sobs, not even sparing a glance towards me. All I wanted to do was stare into those alluring jade green eyes of hers and tell her I was sorry. But I couldn't. I was frozen, stuck, and at a loss for words like the idiot I am.

"Naomi, I-I'm sorry. You know me. You know I wouldn't-" I was cut off. "Do I really? Do I really know you? This was all a lie Nathan," She chokes out, "I can't even trust the things you're saying. I can't even fucking look at you. Goodbye, Nathan." She walks out of the house, onto the street, into the rain.

And at that, I had knew I had lost her. My best friend, my only love, the girl who kept me sane. Our friendship, our relationship, gone.
