[NOTICE: THIS STORY IS GOING UNDER EXTREME EDITING! UPDATED VERSION WILL APPEAR UNDER TITLE "HER DOWNFALL". THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE] If you confessed your feelings to your best friend and he shot you down, would you feel broken? What if he used your feelings against you and played a terrible prank involving underneath the bleachers, football players, slime, and cheerleaders? What would you do if three years later, you still feel exactly the same for him? What would you do if he now had deep feelings for you? Meet Harper. Harper has a troubled past, but she never let it get in her way of living life to the fullest. She was a wild child, and the bravest person you'd ever meet. However, her confidence was crushed one day by the guy that meant the most to her. She changed herself completely because of how badly he crushed and humiliated her. For three long years, she tried everything to get over him, but it never worked. What will she do when she discovers that he likes her too? Meet Noah. Noah regrets the day he decided to pull a prank on Harper using her feelings for him against her. At the time, he just wanted his football buddies to like him and wasn't interested in getting into a relationship yet. Since then, however, he's grown to like her... maybe even love her. For a couple years or so, he's watched as she dates boy after boy and break their hearts like he broke hers. All he wants is for Harper to be his, but when he remembers what he did, he can never ask her. Until one fateful day... What will happen when Noah finally shares how he feels? What happens when Noah's brother comes to town and secrets of his and Harper's past unfold? How will Harper react when she realizes how many lies Noah has told and how many secrets he keeps? Will Noah be able to keep saying she's his? Or will he lose her? (My first story so please be kind and give me constructive criticism. This is copyright, so please don't steal my plot.)

Rooming With Evan by randomjj04

Evan moves his other hand and grabs my waist. "Its gonna be so much better."

His Slut Of The Week || Wattys 2016 by InvisbleShadows

I smiled at him but tears were starting to blur my vision together. "I hate you." His smile faltered and he looked taken back, "Not like that, Drake. I hate you because you make me cry. You're supposed to beat up the guys who make me cry, not be one of them." "But they are happy tears, right?" he clarified. I smiled and nodded my head, before gripping his shirt, pulling his body against mine. "I'll never make you cry because you're sad, understood? I'm never leaving you." I didn't respond this time, I just sat in his lap, holding his torso and he played with my hair. "I don't know if I can let you in yet Drake," I told him truthfully, the one thing I had been dreading telling him. "I know. But I'll never hurt you like the others have. I-"he cut himself off and took a deep breath. "Riley?" he moved me away from his shirt. I looked at him in the eyes and say an emotion. One I hadn't seen in a long time and one I haven't seen in his eyes before. "Can I kiss you?" __________________ Drake was the player of the school. Everyone knew his name. Riley was the nerd of the school. No one knew her name. Complete opposites but for some reason, opposites seemed to attract. Riley knew that Drake had a new girl every week, but she felt like she could change him. And maybe she could. Maybe she'd be different. *Based on a true story*
