"Wait!" Arabelle sprinted up from the swing. "Declan!" 

He stopped and turned around to face her. "What were you about to say about Elijah?" Arabelle was burning with curiosity at who this person might be.

His green eyes stared into her as a unknown emotion flickered with in them. 

Hurt? Disappointment? 

But it didn't matter. As quick as it came, the emotion had disappeared. Instead his eyes turned cold, unfamiliar.  

"Forget it, it's nothing." He turned around and began to walk again but Arabelle stopped him again, this time out of desperation. She had to know how he knew about Blake.

"How did you know about Blake then? I never mentioned him," she questioned Declan as she looked intently at his face, to make sure that he was telling her the truth.

"Noah mentioned how you kept mumbling his name under your breath during class. Something about how he reminded you of Blake." His face was blank. She knew there was more that he wasn't telling her.

"Bu-"

"Listen Elle I'm sorry, but it's late and I really have to go," he gave me a pained smile, "I'll see you tomorrow okay?" She watched Declan as he walked out of the park and until he disappeared out of her sight.

Arabelle wasn't stupid. Okay, maybe sometimes she was, but she knew that he was lying and she was determined to find out the truth. 



Please give this story a chance and tell me what you think!

I heard Jordan groan in frustration before he made his way over to me, crouching in front of me. That stupid signature smirk of his was back on his face again as he slowly but surely moved his head toward mine, his face tilting as his mouth got dangerously close to mine as every second slipped by. My breathing hitched, my heart pounded, and suddenly, out of nowhere, my fist formed, and it flew right into Jordan's face. He stumbled backward, losing his balance as he hit the edge of the table. ~ Casey Valentine. She's your typical girl-next-door, smart, slightly awkward girl just wanting to live her ordinary-enough life without any unnecessary drama, wanting to finish the last few months of her senior year of high school with flying colours before setting off on her journey towards the rest of her life. But her life changes suddenly when she discovers that there are multiple people all after her, and they might not all be in the same way. As time goes on, and Casey finds herself getting closer to each of them in ways she never expected, she learns a lot more about the world than she ever did before. Everyone has their own secrets, secrets they don't want anyone else discovering. Human lives are much more precious than she originally thought they were. She soon finds herself trapped in a vicious war that she wants nothing to do with, with danger attracted to her like a magnet. But what happens when she realises that something far more dangerous is at work; love? Well, I suppose that the only way to find the answer to that question is to take a dive into the deep end and join Casey on her journey. Not every story has a happy ending. ~ This is a story about love, and the power of friendship, that overcomes all obstacles, as cheesy as that sounds. One girl's destiny, although fatal, is the key to saving those around her from their inner turmoil. She has no idea just how important she really is, that she's the key to everyone else's happy ending.

Before she can object, I carry on. 'Maya you are beautiful beyond perfection. You are strong. You are brave. You are funny. You are sweet. You are incredible. Look at yourself,' I nod down towards the scars on her arm and she slowly glances down at them before meeting my gaze again, 'those scars are beautiful. Do you know why?' I ask her. She wipes a tear from her already tear-stricken face before she shakes her head. 'Because every time you decided to do that to yourself, you didn't go further, you didn't end your life. You decided to carry on living even when you thought you couldn't manage it. Those scars right there,' I gesture to them again, 'show the battles you won against yourself. They are your battle-scars and you shouldn't be ashamed of them. And you know what? I am so proud of you for making it to where you are today because you are a fighter and If I can see that, anyone can.'

"I didn't ask to be in the middle of your ego-battle," I grumble. Blake pins me to my locker, hands resting on either side of my head. "Well, you got it in anyway, Darling," he whispers. His face is inches away from mine and damn me for licking my lips. I am NOT falling for these guys. And then, at the corner of my eye I spot Owen and his gang approaching. Well, that's just great. *** The West and East gang of Tygerwell have been at each other's throats since the dawn of time. And the two leaders of these gangs want to end the fight, once and for all. But fighting with fists is easy. Fighting with wit and charm, is a whole other ball game. Blake. West-side gang leader. Leather jacket and killer glare. Don't talk back. Owen. East-side gang leader. Fancy coat and toxic stare. Don't resist. And in comes Amber. Hair of gold and oceans in her eyes. Has too much sass for her own good and always, ALWAYS, manages to get into the middle of trouble. But these boys have no idea who they're really dealing with. And when Amber descovers she knows a little too much when it comes to guns and fighting, she has to question everything she thought she knew about herself. Three can play this game. *** "Let's settle this. You got rejected, I got rejected. It's only fair that the fate of the gangs be on who gets the girl first." "That sounds rather good, Rhodes. I'll take that bet on the golden girl." *** COMPLETED FICTION AWARDS: Best new story and best new account Highest ranking in Teen Fiction: #1 on 25/06/2018
Before She Even Knows by TeaInTheGarden02

''There is only one thing crossing my mind right now. If he hates me so much, then why the hell is he kissing me back?'' ----------------------- Emma White has always been kind of a loner. Her mother died giving birth to her and her father never really cared, always working in his successful company. That's why she decides to go to a college away from home, something she's been dreaming of since she can remember. However, what happens when at her very first day on campus, she crosses path with Noah Allen? He is rich, popular, cold, rude and a player just to start with. No surprise she calls him Mr. Grumpy. What is driving her insane though is that he's only too cold when it comes to her. After some not so pleasant moments and lots of glares, she tells herself that the best is to stay away from him, but it won't be that easy. After a disastrous kiss and hidden jealousy, she finds herself deeply involved into what is this frustrating boy. Add to that the fact that he is her roommates' childhood best friend and you can see drama from miles away. Noah claims to hate her ever since they met, and he doesn't mean her first day of college. He remembers her just fine from a couple of years ago and all the feelings are back. He knows she doesn't remember him and he'll use this as his leverage to do what he has to do. It's what he promised his father and himself, even if it means he has to pretend to care for her. All he cares is his family business. At least it's what he tells himself, until the feelings start getting too mixed and he ends up thinking of her more than he should. Maybe it's not all about business after all. He knows their history started before she even knows, what he didn't expect was for her to be so different from what he has always believed.
