Leon Blackwell was a Senior in high school, the guy that everyone knew, but couldn't tell you a thing about him, the kid that was second at everything. The one who clearly wore a mask but wouldn't let anyone in to see it.
Kiera Yvette was a delinquent with an unknown history. Pretty as a sunset and sharp as a knife it was only another person with a mask, though smoking, and driving a motorcycle seemed the perfect cover to her, and a way to get the attention she wanted.
He didn't want to be seen, she didn't want anyone to know her. She's the rebel who skips class, and he's the quiet kid who couldn't care less. But when her grades slip he becomes her tutor, and things both didn't want to be known came to the light, a place neither wanted to end up. But with a lit match there's only so long before it starts to burn, and with them burning was all they ever knew.
(Shy boy & bad girl type romance. Swearing, some cringe, and my favourite unused trope)

Between
She's panting, flushed and breathless like something from another century. It hurts to look at her, so stunningly alive in a way he isn't. Almost smiling, too. She has the kind of lips that need undiluted devotion. "You've always looked at me," she breathes. Yes, and he finds himself thinking about ruin. The right kind, like his knuckles against her jaw to shake her apart. Freedom. Maybe in another life, he brushes the hair off her shoulder and whispers, 'Eyes on me.' Maybe in another life, they have time. 𝑫𝒐 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒓 𝒊𝒕? 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒄𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒎𝒔 𝒃𝒆𝒕𝒘𝒆𝒆𝒏 𝒔𝒊𝒍𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆. She isn't his to protect. He's a cop, she's taken, and rules are rules. But Faro Wyatt has mapped every freckle on her nose and dreamt of the oceans in her eyes. His resolve is weakening. So when the radio crackles with a single call, he's breaking every rule from here on out.

Love at first Hate | ✔️
Ross stepped a step closer to me from across the room, confusion never leaving his eyes. "Are you hiding from someone ?" I bit my lip. The next door Alec would open, would definitely be this one. I was playing out all kind of escape plans in my head but the only possible one I came up with was this idea. I can always change my name and move to another country, right ? What about Mexico ? "Laura ?" I quickly walked up to Ross, "I'm sorry in advance." "What do you mean, I-", he couldn't even finish his sentence when I suddenly pulled him towards me, walking backwards till my back hit the wall. I saw his eyes widen a little, "Laura, wait, are you drunk again ? What the hell are you doing ? I-", in that very moment the door opened and I grabbed Ross by his shirt and pulled him towards me, making our lips meet. {C O M P L E T E D} ©selftice | idea, story & cover. ⊱⊰ #1 in #lauramarano (03/07/20) #1 in #auslly (17/02/21)Complete
Rules to Feeling Lonely
Alone. A simple word that has always held many meanings to Ella, and starting her senior year at a new high school, solitude had seemed the easiest way to go. A week passed, bland and unnoticed, before her plans quickly get thrown overboard. Losing one of her most priced possessions, she finds herself making a rather simple deal with someone from school. His name, for her book. There's only one little problem; she has no idea who this person is. Laughs and tears, friends and heartbreak, and the past that comes knocking on the door. Ella faces it all as she takes on the search to find her secret admirer. ___________________ "I can't believe him after the texts, the letter, the flowers. All these months and he just tells me 'we'll talk later'", I told him, feeling absolutely frustrated. I am so damn stupid, thinking this was gonna be something special or whatever. "It isn't him", he suddenly spoke and I just rolled my eyes. He doesn't even know what he's talking about, the imbisile. "It is, you don't even know what you're talking about so shut up", I cried out, walking forth and back for the hundredth time. "Listen, I do and it isn't him", he yelled this time and I stopped walking, angrily turning to him. Can he stop just pissing me off even more? "Oh yeah? And how are you so sure?" "Because it's me"Complete
Opposites attract
"You're so bad for me". "And you love that". I gulped as he lent in closer, trapping me between his body and the wall behind me. The worst part of the situation was how right he was and how badly I wanted to kiss him. What happens when you mix an uptight, straight A student who's never been drunk, to a party or in a relationship, with a seemingly carefree, school fuckboy who's life evolves around girls, parties and alcohol? Well, you get a lot of arguments, a few suspensions, maybe a police record, a couple of disapproving parents and most importantly, a fuck load of sexual tension. Basic maths really.

The Way I Loved You ✓
She'd die for love. He didn't believe in love. *** From reading The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood, to watching 10 Things I Hate About You, to listening to You are in Love by Taylor Swift, Emily Kingsley's life is a sum of moments she has spent after romance. Watching, reading, listening or daydreaming, romance has never failed to comfort this high school junior of 17 years of age. She has her own issues: self-sabotage, lack of focus in studying, randomly popping up acne and not loving the way she looked. But she could forget all that as long as she is reading about two people falling in love and finding their happily ever after. Emily wants a romance for herself too, and she knows just the person for it. Landon McArther, a senior in her school. According to Emily, Landon is handsome, sophisticated, well-spoken and unlike any of the immature boys of her class who didn't get her at all. Landon was everything Emily has always dreamed about and moreover he appreciates her for the person she is. But there's just a teeny-tiny problem. Landon McArther has a girlfriend. While that wasn't in Emily's bingo card, she hopes, prays, and longs for the day Landon will be single (because he is Emily's soulmate, and he has to be) and awaits her chance for romance. At the same time, her seatmate in chemistry, the rumored delinquent, grumpy asshole Nathan Callahan, makes fun of her romantic dreams. Can Emily ever find true love? Completed.

Something that the two definitely have. Between stolen kisses, white lies, and their hatred for each other things are bound to get crazy. But when the anger fades and the hatred sizzles down is that enough to keep them away from one another or will they choose to become more than just a distant senior year memory?
