"You know, I think I've seen more of your tears than your smile since i met you."

"Oh, really?"

"I mean, don't get me wrong-I'm totally here for the emotional support thing, but I'm starting to think you owe me a few more smiles to even things out."

"if I owe you smiles, then maybe... I could compensate with something else too."

"Oh? And what did you have in mind?"

"How about... kisses? You know, to make up for all the tears."

Even though I'm a mess and I still don't think I'm good enough for him, I want to date him.

"Noah, I won't do it unless you ask me to," he whispered, his voice seductively low. "What?" I asked almost breathless. "Kiss you," he murmured. "And God, there are no words for how badly I want to." **** Noah was your all American boy. Captain of his soccer team, extremely good-looking, having other boys want to be him and girls want to be with him, but there's one problem. He doesn't chase after the captain of the cheerleading squad or the girls who spread their legs open for whoever asks. In fact, he doesn't go for any girl. Instead, he hates himself when his eyes linger on a guy that his brain and heart say is cute. He's gay, and he's having a hard time accepting himself for it. It doesn't help when he wakes up almost naked in another guy's house, let alone in another guy's bed. And to make matters worse, he can't help but fall for the outspoken and extremely attractive Madison who he'd drunkenly went home with and tried to screw. Finally, to add the cherry on top of the crap-tastic cake, Noah is forced to work with Madison for at least six months, or he'll lose his beloved soccer. Nothing could go wrong, right? Throw in a bit of awkwardness mixed with a few close calls and you've got a recipe for disaster....and a tiny tear in Noah's heavily protected heart. © 2018 *endless thanks and love to @half_a_hetero for helping me with the Italian in this book.

*COMPLETED* "Do I mean nothing to you?!" He spat out the words, his voice laced with fury. "What are you talking about?" I strained against his iron grip, my cheeks flushing with the exertion to escape him. He remained seated atop me, swiftly snatching the joint from my grasp. After taking a drag, he blew the smoke in my face before leaning down to kiss me again, his hands firmly on my wrists. My resistance began to weaken, the pleasure of his lips on mine dissolving my determination. Sensing my surrender, his grip eased as I reciprocated the kiss. He leaned into me, his lips hungry and hands ready, as if expecting my defiance to resurface at any moment. Eventually, he pulled back, his hands still clasping my wrists. I lay there, my heart racing with a mix of irritation and bewilderment.

Enemies Too Close

32 parts Complete Mature

Sticking two hot heads who've had it out for each other since day one didn't seem smart. But yet that's exactly what happens. Roman and Will didn't "click" together, the closest they were to having something in common was their swim team and their need to prove each other wrong. This is why they are given an ultimatum: They can give up their swimming scholarships or go to a beach house to mend their relationship. It was simple, they have to spend two months together. No communication with anybody else. Bonding exercises everyday. And absolutely no fighting for two months. Who knows what will come out of this? Thank you for reading I appreciate it so much :)))
