They say opposites attract-Vivian wishes they didn't.
Vivian Pham was what you would call an overachiever. She was put together, a perfectionist, and student council vice president. She was the kind of girl that had her future set and planned. Aiden Nguyen on the other hand? Her total opposite. He was the school jock. Popular, athletic, and charming. Always late to his basketball games and had a reputation for never taking anything seriously.
They've never gotten along - in fact, they quite literally hate eachother. Their parents were old family friends, basically the reason why they even acknowledge eachother in the first place. Their parents favor the other child, only adding to the fuel. The constant comparisons only add tension each time they face eachother.
But when Vivian finds out her long-time crush had eyes on someone else for prom, one who happens to be everything she's not, the panic settles in. And Aiden on the other hand? He's in deep trouble after rumors are spreading about him like wildfire for hooking up with a girl that he didn't know the name to. The solution? They fake date eachother to fix their own messes.
The more time they spend together, the more they realize they aren't pretending. But when old secrets come out and the relationship feels too real, they both ask themselves: were they ever even pretending?

Don't Pull Me In (bxb) WIP
When you hate someone, you ignore them, hate them quietly and build up reasons to stack that hatred. What happens when they shove a way into your life? They highlight your problems, the things that are breaking you and you can't do anything about it. What happens when that person is the only person that cares enough to reach out, to help you, to show you that they care? When they pull you in, you push away.. right? Right? ~ Otis Kaifer is doing great! He's got a sports scholarship, he's the co-captain of the soccer team in college. He has a loving girlfriend who loves him and a best friend who would die for him. But with life, somethings wrong. Rumours are floating about, people are talking and Otis refuses to confront it, he can't, his perfect life that he strives for would be broken. He just can't. So, Chase Sorinas doesn't really care about Otis' whole thing. If anything, the only connection that they both share if that Otis is dating Darcy Glossm, and her twin sister: Lexi Glossm is Chase's best friend and maybe they have a friends with benefits thing going on. Too many names, too many connections and Chase.. shouldn't care. But seeing someone trying to put their life back together with used tape with crumbs on the sticky side.. yeah it made him feel bad. And if Lexi is so adamant about helping.. maybe he could move the walls around a bit and see where they go. It wouldn't hurt to try right? To pull someone in, to learn a new way to love, even if it hurts. Even if you have to wait. Maybe it's worth it. ~ (WARNING: This story contains: sexual language, sexual activities, underage drinking, substance misuse and possibly much more. Read at your own risk.)

Our Secret [Completed]
[Book 2 in the Secret series] "That's not what I meant..." I chew on my lip. "Well, what the fuck did you mean then?" He shouts. "When I'm there I don't have to think about you!" I yell back. Wrong choice of words again, Sophia. I curse myself. His form immediately stands and he strides over to me, he is now inches away from me, his body is so close to mine that I am forced to take a couple of steps backwards. My back is pressed up against the window. Noah's breathing is deep but he speaks softly, "when you're there all I can think about is you." He raises his hand and tucks a strand of hair behind my ear. I step around him and head for the door, "uh I'm going to go to the hospital." I pick up my bag and rush out of the door leaving Noah in the room and saving myself from doing something I would definitely regret and make me change my mind about going back to Pennsylvania. ------------ 'I love you too,' were the last words Sophia heard before she was banished from her home city and she left without a second thought. If she didn't she knew she would be in danger. A month and a half later Sophia returns as a person close to her is in critical condition in hospital. Everyone's eyes are on Sophia, and they are looking for someone to blame. Will she return to her new life and forget about New York once and for all?

Ava
Here's a for you story 🌸 It's catchy, emotional, and written to grab attention - --- ### **Story Description:** Ava just wanted a quiet senior year - no drama, no attention, no disasters. But fate clearly didn't get the memo. First, she nearly gets *hit by a car* on her way to school (and somehow makes a new friend out of it). Then, before she can even recover from that near-death morning, she trips in the hallway straight into the arms of a boy she's *never seen before* - the kind of boy who smirks like he knows all your secrets. Kian Rivers. Tall. Infuriating. Way too confident. And apparently, everywhere she turns. What starts as a clumsy encounter spirals into something neither of them can ignore. Between chaotic parties, whispered teasing, and unspoken tension, Ava finds herself caught between irritation and attraction - and maybe, something dangerously in between. Because sometimes, the people you collide with by accident are the ones you were meant to find all along. ---
