"Fuck you, Springs" - he spats
"In your dreams, Henderson" 
"How'd you know?" - he replies, with a smirk on his face. 

Jade Springs only had one goal in her life and that was to make it till 20.
See,Jade wasn't really a very happy person. She was quite the opposite. Well if you can call an quiet, socially awkward, no friends and shit grades person happy. And not to mention the fact that her only happiness is reading books and making playlists about them.


James Henderson is the opposite of Jade. He is a very out going person, who would do anything to see his friends happy even if that means that him, himself wouldn't be. Some people think that that's a weakness but James sees it as a very good quality. Of course his biggest rival Jade doesn't think so. Anytime they have an assignment together she would always call him out on that, while James would call her out on her no socialism and her shitty eye bags. What he would not tell her is that he kinda finds them attractive. Very attractive.

Jade and James are fine with never talking to each other but there is one tiny problem. They both have the same two mutual friends. Avery and Xander.
That and the fact that their families are really close. Like really close. When they were kids James's family would come over all the time. But that's not what we're here to talk about. We're here to talk about Avery and Xander, well for now. 

Avery and Xander are absolutely crushing crazy with each other. Of course everyone else sees it but them.

Their misscommunication is driving both Jade and James crazy.

One day when they're seated together for an assignment they both can't take it anymore and come up with a plan to get their idiots together. Well more likely a deal. Which one will be able to get Avery or Xander to confess first wins.

But what they don't realise is that they are actually setting themselves up.



*perfect for "better than the movies" lovers! *

"Listen I know we've been flirting and shit but that doesn't mean I like you, okay" I cross my arms again and slightly smirk. He smirks down at me and he opens his beautiful mouth.

[High School Slice of Life + A Sunshine-like Female Lead + No Reincarnation or Time Travel + Heartwarming & Healing] [Note: The female lead does not engage in romantic relationships, though other characters may have their own love stories.] After surviving a near-death experience, Gu Qinghuan teams up with a mysterious system and transfers into Class 1-3 of a prestigious private high school. [One day in the future, your classmates may be reborn through reincarnation.] [But before that happens, they will be deceived, despised, broken, and destroyed-] [Your mission is to prevent their rebirth.] Gu Qinghuan: No problem, leave it to me! The true heiress in a "real vs. fake rich" story stops yearning for her family's love and approval. The stand-in female character in a "school bully & innocent heroine" plot refuses to linger and strides toward a brighter future. The doting "licking dog" young miss in a "chase-to-the-crematorium" romance no longer begs for hypocritical affection. The deep-hearted male lead's best friend is too busy playing the "class mom" to drown his sorrows in alcohol. The hot-headed male side character who used to solve everything with his fists now believes more in the power of the police. System: To be honest, I didn't expect you to carry out the mission this well. Gu Qinghuan: It wasn't just my strength alone. The sunflower is not called "sunflower" because it turns toward the sun- It's because its bloom already resembles the sun itself. These girls and boys were brilliant like the sun all along.

Book One of the Love You Series - Standalone. Sometimes the heart wants what logic swears is off-limits. Kyle Carter. By definition? My brother's best friend. To everyone else? Confident. Charismatic. The human version of sunshine. He walks into a room and people gravitate toward him-like he knows exactly who he is and where he's going. But behind the easy smiles and effortless charm is someone quieter, softer... someone who wants to be seen. Really seen. By one person alone. When you're part of the same friend group, running into each other is inevitable. Daily, even. Bickering became our version of talking, teasing became our shared language. But it's dangerous-the kind of dangerous where you start noticing just how beautiful someone is, and wondering how it's even fair to exist next to them. And feelings? They show up like a tidal wave I can't stop, no matter how many times I tell myself not to fall. Because Kyle Carter is off-limits. And I should know better. Ivy Kingston. Definition? My best friend's sister. The one girl who knows exactly how to push my buttons-and enjoys doing it. She's bold, reckless, and says things that get under my skin and stay there. She's trouble in the form of witty comebacks and the most intoxicating smile I've ever seen. She's not the little girl I used to tease anymore. She's... something else entirely. And it scares the hell out of me how much I want her. Feelings weren't supposed to be part of the equation-but here they are, crashing through every line I've drawn. And no matter how much I try to stay away, she pulls me in like gravity. They say if it's meant to be, it'll find a way. But there's always a but, isn't there? The truth is, I don't know if I'll ever get my happy ending. Hell, she is my happy ending. And I need her. More than anything.
Assassins don't  cry от novasmpsn66

{Re-written version} Jade isn't just a good assassin-she's the best. She's seen it all, done it all and doesn't get rattled easily Except when she's told she has to kill the most feared mob boss of the century- Silas Andreeva But what she doesn't know is that this is all a ploy for Silas to test Jade's capabilities. But it isn't just about a test, is it?-it's personal. Silas isn't just looking for a killer; he's drawn to her specifically. It starts with respect-admiration for her skill, the way she doesn't flinch under pressure. But then? It gets messy. Once recruited, a dangerous tension builds. Every conversation, every moment is a push and pull between an assassin and the man who should be her target. Jade and Silas are equals. She's the best assassin out there, and he's the kind of man crazy enough to invite his death just to see if she's worth his time. Neither of them fully trusts the other... but that just makes things hotter. "Am I falling for him, or is this just another game?" "Did I set this up to test her... or because I wanted to keep her close?" They should be enemies. They should walk away. But neither of them does. Because deep down, they know-this is the most fun they've had in a long time. This is the kind of love story that simmers-slow burns with tension so thick it's practically crackling. Every interaction is a game of cat and mouse, but neither of them is sure **who's who. And the best part? They both know it's dangerous. They just don't care.

She is the definition of confidence, it practically radiates off of her, but she has a mysterious past that has made her completely closer herself off from the world. Meet Seth Parker, aka Greenwood High's most popular guy and also the biggest player in the tristate. He thinks that his life is perfect. He's got the girls, the popularity, and looks that could kill, but what happens when his best friend's older sister manages to shock both of them with a surprise visit and turns his entire world upside down and inside out.

He softly spoke as he leaned in, pushing me against the wall. "Lot's a people do." "Let me revitalize. I like you...in a way where I want to hold your hand when were walking, or beat the sh*t out of a guy for flirting with you." "Well...I'm not made to be loved." I can't fall for a guy. Ever. ----------------------------------------------- Jase Batcher, Not your typical girl but she was... normal in some... Aspects. She grew up surrounded by boys. Father, Brother (Ruke), and Eldest Brother (Jac). She had a best friend who grew up right along with her as her neighbor (Judy). I guess you could say she was into wrestling. The dream of being a pro wrestler as a child and everything. But along the way her dream changed for some reason. ~ Hunt Kentin. Rich, Handsome, Football playing, Bad boy, Player, with a cocky attitude to match. He had the life many kids wanted. A younger sister that he called a brat to get kicks out of and a older brother to play video games and practice football with. Mother and Father were both loving. So what was the reason behind him and the way he acted..? ~ *WARNING!* This book will tease you with possible kiss scenes(and heated moments), might make you laugh, might make you curse out a character in your mind, it will have bad language, and gory moments. If you can handle that-- ENJOY~! ----------------------------------------------- ~Hey, Wolfehs! I will be planning on putting this book under editing, as most of you know I have completed it. As I re-read it I literally cringe, I feel its really cliche and that's not the path I want to take for this book so, Just a warning to all you guys!~ Don't be afraid to comment on it and come out from you shy ghost reader shell! ~GreyMist ;3
