When roommates Ainlsey and Malakai start college, they are both seeking the same thing: a fresh start and a place to belong. Too bad they are polar opposites and butt heads right from the start. When Malakai falls victim to a girl's infatuation, he attempts to dodge her relentless flirtations. As she grows more insistent and spends hours at a time in their dorm, he and Ainsley grudgingly hatch a plan: pretend to date to get her to back off.

While the two navigate their tense (but fake) relationships, unexpected feelings pop up, causing havoc on their burgeoning friendship, and jealousy rears its ugly head. Will the two of them be able to work out their differences and admit their true feelings or will one be left broken-hearted?All Rights Reserved

Independent Braylee Mitchells faces the prospect of falling in love with her new roomie: self-proclaimed player and long-time friend, Dominick Mulder, when a damaged apartment and old vows force them together... and make them possibly confront and deny something that has been in front of them all this time. *** Braylee Mitchells remembers what it was like to live with Dominick Mulder in university- as well as all her other friends. Now, ten years later, and despite a vow taken by all of them never to live together again, Dominick may just very well save the day (and her savings) when he takes on the task of becoming her roommate once again. With her apartment in need of costly repairs and her freelance career as a copywriter and editor struggling to cover the bills, Braylee's options seem limited. That is until she stumbles upon a charming country bungalow that seems like the answer to her prayers. The only catch? The rent is far beyond her means. Desperate to make ends meet and reluctant to burden her loved ones with her troubles, Braylee turns to Dominick for support. As they navigate the complexities of adulthood and the challenges of chasing their dreams, their friendship deepens into something more profound. But as Braylee and Dominick grow closer, they must confront their own fears and insecurities, navigating the blurred lines between friendship and something deeper. Will their bond withstand the tests of time, circumstance, and untold secrets, or will the weight of their individual struggles tear them apart?

The Best Kind of Betrayal by scout245

It's the first day of June's senior year and everything is already going wrong. Her first boyfriend and supposedly love of her life dumps her for someone else, her heart is broken and feels like it won't ever heal again and her best friend makes her join the most unnecessary club on earth to help her find new friends she most definitely does not need. Still. New chances are for new beginnings, right? Instead of falling into a deep dark pit of self pity (however tempting that may sound), all of this betrayal ends up leading her to the best friends she's ever had and the most exciting school year of her life. Oh - and a whole new fake boyfriend, to get some revenge on that idiot who dumped her. And who knows. Maybe even more.

For Just a Moment by Cecimack0365

What do you do when your smart, handsome, well-liked step brother and two of his friends force you to have sex with them in your own bedroom? Do you tell? And what if no one believes you? Or worse yet, what if the adults and even the friends that you count on think that it's somehow your fault? Sixteen-year-old Molly Kerrigan has a horrible secret, one so painful that she tries her hardest to forget it. Starting over at a new school, she does all she can to remain anonymous. But a well-meaning social worker hoping to help Molly come to terms with her troubled past, forces her to participate in an every-other-day lunch group. It is here that she meets Ali, who is figuring out her own sexuality, Trinity, so neglected at home that she seeks solace in the arms of older men, Rubi, a Mexican immigrant with her hands full, between her dying mama and younger, special needs sister, and Layla, the richest, most beautiful, and most manipulative girl in the school. Molly also draws the attention of charming soccer player, Noah Nazarian, after he sees her accidentally defending his freshman brother from bullies on the first day of school. Desperate to be left alone, Molly invents a pretend boyfriend. The only problem is that he ends up being not so pretend, and now Molly finds herself as one half of a fake relationship that is the obsession of the most popular clique at school.

The Short and The Furious ✔ by whoscountinganyway

It's true what they say -you should never kiss your roommate. Something that Everly Peyton and Ares Dante prove quite excellently. But there's something else that they could tell you as well: if you're going to fall in love with your roommate never let them fall in love with you too. Keep them at a distance. Well, for five years, Ares and Peyton completely disregard that rule. And once it starts to become real, once they start to think that falling in love (and kissing) their roommate couldn't be that bad after all- -though it still bringing up some negative connotations- -there's this one big hurdle they have to come over. Family problems. Betrayals. Shotgun-reactions. Abuse. When falling in love with your roommate goes wrong, what do you have left? Not a place to live, not your same life, not your normal routine, or friends, or happiness. Neither of them know how long it's going to take the other to get over or heal from it, but when more of their pasts unravel, when they're pushed back together and can't ignore the other's pain? They force themselves to move on. But moving past heart break is always harder than it seems. **I no longer agree with ideals/things I wrote bc I was a child***
