Once upon a time there was a nerd by the name of Aria Summers blah blah blah
Oh who am I kidding you really thought this story would be over some love and romance well think again babe cause its not!
Let me clear the air from now:
1. I don't do relationships
2. I don't have feelings I lock them away cause they only bring pain.
3. I'm not a nerd who has a crush then your crush ends up liking you then you have to battle some barbie chick to end up with him.
No hun I'm not that cliche, the only thing I have in common with them is that I have a horrible past and I don't really talk about it.
This is my story not yours so shut up and listen to what I'm about to say cause this is just the beginning . The story I'm about to tell you is how I became...... you know what you deserve to read for yourself!
I'm Aria Summers and I am total a badass I made the word it self!

As she began to feel open to love, she didn't know he was like the characters she created, an interesting mystery with hidden parts. The pain she wrote about was alive in him, creating a love story even more complex than her tales. "I don't know what to write about," | confessed, my frustration mounting. "Write about us."

His Dangerous Ways✔️
CLICK THE LINK IN MY BIO FOR EARLY ACCESS CHAPTERS ON INKITT!! *** "Calm down," he said as he brushed the broken glass off his forehead. "Calm down?" I shrieked. "You're telling me to calm down after a man just tried to kill us in the middle of the night and is now laying right over there dead!" I said pointing to his limp, none moving body. "He's fine," River said as if it were no big deal. "I didn't hit him that hard." I looked at him in pure shock. What was wrong with him? "Now come on," he said grabbing my arm and leading me away from the man. I looked at him. Sweat had formed all over his forehead and a look of urgency was written all over his face. Blood was now leaking from the nasty cut on his forehead and looked like it would need some serious tending. I looked between him and the guy laying on the ground. I'm probably going to regret this later. I thought to myself as I took a deep breath before nodding and without a second thought, he continued pulling me away. *** Cat was your average girl; she maintained good grades, loved friends, and wanted to become a famous dancer, but her life changes when she literally runs into the biggest bad boy in her school: River Parker. Aka, the boy who doesn't care about anything or anyone except his very few close friends, including Cat's best friend Liam. But little did she know that her 'run in' would throw her into a life of drugs, gambling, near-death experiences, and so much more. And to make things worse, she might be falling in love with him and all his dangerous ways.

It Wasn't Love ✔️
"Fuck." He whispers into my neck, sending a thrill of excitement through my body. His lips still smothered kisses over my neck and his hands roamed my body, starting at my chest, going down to my stomach. Caressing my soft skin, his thumb trailed circles on my groin before slightly slipping into the waistband of my jeans. My breath catches in my throat as I pull at the hoodie that covered his chiselled body. Understanding, Jacob pulls it off in one swift movement before attaching his lips back on my neck. Sucking and biting it before flicking his tongue over the sore spot. A quiet moan leaves my mouth and I clasp my hand over it, denying any noise to escape.

She was so proud of her name; "It means silver!" she used to say, with a goofy/ proud smile that I adored. I was smiling again. A tear rolled down my left cheek and I realized that I was crying.
