This Wasn't In My Tarot Reading
Courtney was a goth or new wave something, not sure... She was in West Valley High since forever but no one seemed to really pay attention to her, she had her small group of friends Bella and Danielle, everything was..Well not great, boring but still like yeah no drama which is kinda boring..Until a new girl Kathleen joined the school. Of course the cobras noticed Courtney now since she was friends with this Kathleen girl, they thought that it would be fun to mess with them since they didn't really know them that well. They all thought Kath was so pretty but she didn't pay attention to them and they didn't wanna seem desperate so one gave the idea to become close with Courtney, that way they would find out weird shit and also be close to Kathy and then in the end can ruin Courtney's life in high school. And I forgot to say, to be honest Courtney didn't even do Tarot reading that often, they just thought so because everyone called her a witch.
Hopelessly Devoted
"Never call a girl a bitch," I glared into his eyes as he opened them, piercing into me, the bright blue drink I had just poured over him still dripping from his dark hair. "Or she just might act like one." I gave him one last sarcastic smile before pushing by him and walking away, practically strutting. Well, this year will be fun... • • • • Crystal Summers; a self-proclaimed expert in all things sarcastic and the human embodiment of destructive decisions. Trying to get away from her troubled past, she moves with her mom to California to start a new life, and potentially not screw this one up. There, she quickly meets Scarlett and Savanah, her new-found partners in crime, and her life finally begins to feel normal again for the first time in years. But she just so happens to also collide with the school's sexy, notorious jackass, Ashton Monroe.. and his pack of asswipes. She loathes him, and the feeling is mutual. But as the poets say, the line separating love and hate is a very thin one. And often times, when two people hate each other, it can grow into much more. Hopeless devotion, if you will... • • • • !!!TRIGGER WARNING!!! • slight mention(s) of suicidal concepts • substance abuse, addiction, anxiety, PTSD • sexual assault, domestic abuse • strong language and mature scenes • • • •Complete
