"Can you stop being so mean? It's hurting my feelings," he said, holding his heart.

I chuckled. "I thought you didn't have feelings."

"For you I absolutely do."

I rolled my eyes. "Shut up and dry these plates, dumbass."

"Yes, ma'm," he smiled.

Ruth is the age of ten when a scruffy and neglected orphan boy suddenly shows up on her doorstep. Her first reaction is one of enchantment, heart-flutters and butterflies. 

Six years later and that same orphan boy is now the bane of her existence, the object of all her annoyances and a seventeen-year-old boy that just so happens to have the physique and looks of a full grown man.

From crush to enemy, from children to young-adults.

What will happen when they're forced to spend more and more time together?

Will hate turn to love? 

Or was it never even hate in the first place?

Scared to love by bold_mist

I kept on moving back and he kept walking closer till my back touched the lockers. He trapped me in between his huge hands and I closed my eyes facing away "Why are you so scared of me?" he said in his amazingly husky voice. "Well if you keep on hitting people and make them bleed all day you don't come out as the most friendly person on earth you know?" I said making eye contact. "Give me a chance. I won't disappoint" he said with utmost sincerity reflecting in his eyes. . . . . . . . . . . Check out the book for story description. P.S- I try to update everyday. But sometimes it just not possible. So with that cleared happy reading. Completed ✔️✔️✔️✔️

Ruthless Obsession by fantasywriter230

Ruth has a past, like all children who grow up in the mafia. Perhaps this is what makes them so similar; the neglect, the abuse, it's what intertwines their souls. It's the reason Angelo is drawn to Ruth. You could even say it's the reason he's obsessed. It's easy to confuse love and obsession. Both start off tantalizingly slow. They creep into your mind when you're least expecting it. Sometimes they can go undetected, sometimes they dig so deep into your skin you have no choice but to fade away in the irreversible decision to love someone, to obsess over someone, to make your mark on someone. Once you get a taste, you'll never be able to stop. --------- Started: December of 2020. #1 in boy trouble #1 in good writing #3 in murder #6 in YA

The Poisonous Melaina by syriacax

𝖡𝖤𝖳𝖱𝖠𝖸𝖠𝖫 𝖲𝖤𝖱𝖨𝖤𝖲 #1 She pressed the knife deeper to my throat. I could feel the sting and blood beginning to trickle down my neck. "I gave you a chance to leave and never come back, why didn't you take it?" I looked into those deep grey eyes that I fell for. "Because I wouldn't have my wife sitting right next to me on that train ride." I answered truthfully. ☔︎☔︎☔︎ He has never met someone as mean as her. The glare on her face almost seemed permanent. The only words that fall out of her mouth are ones that will leave you tarnished and torn, making you second guess where you went wrong. Even worse, she never spoke, more like she grunted responses. When he first laid eyes on her, he fell in love with her tattoos, her attitude, her charm. He didn't understand why he kept coming back? He was intrigued with her. No matter what she said or did to him, he kept coming back. He was impatient but would wait for her. . . . She never understood how someone could keep a smile on their face everyday. The way he always kept a positive look on life. He never frowned. He was the flavour bubblegum that everyone wanted. The go-to ice cream flavour that you always get on a sunny day. That one summer vacation that you'll never forget. She hated his smile, his laugh, his eyes. She hated that she wanted to see that smile everyday. She hated that she couldn't stay away from him. She would happily set the world on fire but never let a flame touch him. ☔︎☔︎☔︎ All Rights Reserved 2022Ⓒsyriacax

I added, "You must realize it's hard to trust someone who always made fun of me and talked shit behind my back. You probably still do it." "I hate you." I spoke. The sudden heavy rain started making our bodies wet. "I wish I hated you." I corrected myself and pulled him towards me by his stupid t-shirt. Again. "Stop doing all this to me. Go back to the days when you were disgusted to even touch me." He scowled, and said coldly, "I can't do that as I already crossed the line, Doris." "I crossed the line too, and my dad would be disappointed." "It feels wrong and right at the same time." He whispered.
