A Pinch Of Love
They weren't friends. They were just three boys who had bullied two girls for six years. They had some friend dynamic, sure, but the two sides were NEVER friends. James, Daniel, and Felix are your typical group of delinquents who get joy from bullying people, pulling pranks, vandalizing private property, and just doing anything morally wrong and illegal in general. Giannina Luck is sadly a victim of this group of headaches, and her best friend had left to live in another country. Although she was smart, she was not a pretty girl. Not by a long shot. She was fat, had pimple breakouts, and overall just did not fit your usual 11th grader stereotype. James Arthur had a problem with the world. Had a problem with how things ended up. He hated how bipolar he was. How he cared one second and hated the next. Gia hated her body, how fat it was, but James loved it. In all his 17 years of life he has never seen someone so stunning. So gorgeous. And he was never afraid to admit it or show his affection. Eleventh grade seems to be doing something to the group. They quit bullying her and she eats with them at lunch. Something is going on with Felix, Daniel is CLEARLY heartbroken, and James and Gia are confused. Gia's life is flipping to a completely different angle as she has late-night cuddles with James, mid-day heartbreaks, and early-morning self-hate sessions. But that's just the tip of the iceberg.
