Romeo and Juliet
SHORT CHAPTERS, Update (I thought this was going to be a short story, really, but Romeo and Juliet have other things in mind.) ------ He rips my phone from my hand again and puts it behind him. "Tell me how it works then." "We have to kiss." He looks at me for a few seconds, then grins. I recognize that smile. He's thinking of something mischievous. "A kiss?" "What? Are you worried of kissing me?" His hand swiftly finds the back of my head. A slight tug on my hair and a swift lean in for a kiss leaves me breathless. But breath seems unnecessary. His tongue invades my mouth with a rough yet skilled dance, leading me onto his lap. My hands explore his body, tracing the contours of his chest and arms. ----------------------- Dive into the exhilarating world of Romeo and Juliet as they elevate the game to unprecedented heights. As the reigning players of their school, they're mirror images of each other, identical in spirit but divided by gender. They embark on a daring test of wits and wills against each other. Will they emerge victorious or descend into a battle so fierce they might just claw their eyes out? Ps: This is story has nothing to do with Thank you, Romeo. In fact, this inspired Thank you, Romeo. Let me know your thoughts! Like and share :)
Not Your Average Nerd
Before you ask, no, I'm not some good girl that will let people walk all over me. I've been through some shit no girl(or anyone for that matter) should ever go through. Sure, it haunts me every day of my life but seriously, the past is the past and I can't do crap about it. All I can do is run from it. I can't stop fate. Which is probably why fate stuck me with HIM. I mean seriously? Living next door to the 'bad boy'? What is this supposed to be? Some 50 shades of grey shit? Ha! No way! He isn't coming anywhere near me. No matter how much he irritates the complete hell out of me and makes me want to strangle him. Nope... I won't kill him... Yet. ××× Stuck living next to the bad boy? What will Aaron do as she runs from her past while trying to ignore the bad boys charms and sexy body? Will she fall for it? Or will everything come crashing down on her in the end?

Bad Boy Brady
"I don't trust you." Amelia said in all honesty. "Smart girl." Brady said. Amelia took a step closer. "But," Brady stopped what he was busy with and watched with curious eyes as Amelia stood a few feet away from him with her wide blue eyes solely on him. "But no matter how much I want to, I can't stay away." Brady dropped the wrench that was in his hand and after wiping the slight amount of grease off his forehead he stepped closer to her. "I take back what I said." He said tilting his head to the side. "You have to be the stupidest girl I know." Amelia took in a breath. "That's what my brain keeps on telling me too." "Then listen to your brain." Brady said menacingly. "Because I doubt daddy would want his precious angel to be playing with broken toys." "I don't care." Amelia stated confidently. Brady caught her off guard and grabbed her waist, yanking her closer to him. "If you intend on keeping your heart in one piece, I suggest you start to care." Amelia gulped. "Well, I'm all about taking risks and this is a risk I'm willing to take Brady."

A Player's Game
"Why do you care if I kiss other girls? We're not together, we're friends" he stated swallowing his emotions. "You're right, why should I care? Like you said we're friends" I got more angry with each word that came out of my mouth. "You know what? Go makeout with any girl you want, I don't care" I said as I started to walk away. I felt his hand grip my wrist and pull me back against the lockers. His hands cupped my face and the next thing I know his lips were smashed up against mine. *********************************************************************************************************Stella Jones didn't believe in love, only lust.

Are you mine?
We've all heard about 'the main character'. The type of person who lives through the most dramatic and improbable situations, and finds the kind of epic romance you only see in works of fiction. Which makes you think about how unrealistic love like that is. I used to think the same thing until I met him. Until I met 'the bad boy' that, as it turns out, wasn't that bad at all, just simply...a boy. A boy with an easy smile, a charming personality and looks so enticing that I couldn't keep my eyes off of him if I tried. A boy whose shoulders were starting to slump with the weight of his past and his family. A boy who believed that the only way to survive was by putting a lock on his heart and chaining it down to a place so deep inside of him that no one could ever reach it again. A boy who, for reasons I'll never comprehend, placed the key inside my palm and didn't shy away when I tried to free his hidden heart from its restraints. A boy who made me the main character of my own story. A story I never want to forget, and which begged to be put on paper. This is that story. ~~~ #1 love triangle 8/26/2019 #1 teen romance 11/4/2019 #1 mystory 7/27/2020 #1 teen drama 9/9/2020 #1 goodgirl 9/12/2020 Cover by @alexandramar1e Contains swearing and mature language.Complete
