He was her biggest distraction. She was his only weakness.

Ethan Blake came to survive on a scholarship and keep his head down.

More Than A Game by melyywrites
11 parts Ongoing
Genevieve Aldridge has it all-money, looks, popularity, and the kind of rebellious charm that makes her the queen of the high school scene. Her life is perfect-or that's what they thought. She's bold, impulsive, and always chasing the next thrill. And when boredom hits, nothing's off-limits-not even a reckless little bet. Ethan Carter is everything she's not. Quiet. Brilliant. Mysterious. The kind of guy who keeps his head down, his grades high, and his heart locked up tight. While others are partying, he's planning his future-far away from high school drama and girls like Genevieve. So when she makes a bet to get the school's most untouchable nerd to fall for her, it's just another game... at first. But the more time she spends around Ethan-the more she sees beyond the books and sarcasm-the harder it becomes to remember where the act ends and something real begins. He wasn't supposed to matter. She wasn't supposed to feel anything. And love? That was never part of the plan. But some games have unexpected endings, right? ⸻ Just a heads-up: English isn't my first language, so there might be a few small mistakes here and there. Still, I hope you enjoy the story-and feel free to let me know if anything sounds off!
Between Love & Lies by luvisforthewayu
22 parts Ongoing Mature
Bria Smith's life collapsed the moment her father died. Her mother married her boss, and just like that, Bria was thrown into a life of privilege she never wanted-and a college she hadn't earned, courtesy of her new stepfather. She planned to keep her head down at Harvard Business University, but fate had other ideas... Elijah Park. Her step-uncle. Her professor. The man she's not allowed to want-but can't stop thinking about. He's older, sharper, dangerous in a way that feels like a warning and a promise all at once. And he sees right through her-her grief, her anger, her desire. One look and she's undone. One touch and she's his. This isn't just love. It's temptation, secrets, and a choice that could ruin them both. Because some lies keep you safe... and some loves are worth breaking every rule for. ~

Hate Me, Maybe by Pearllx11
6 parts Ongoing
High school is chaos, but some people make it impossible to ignore... especially when he's tall, infuriatingly charming, and seems to know just how to get under your skin. Nora thought she could survive without drama-then Jake Carter showed up. She thought keeping her head down would save her. He thought he could get a rise out of her. Neither of them knew how dangerous that could be.
Across the Sidelines by taylorsimaginarykid
26 parts Complete Mature
Her brother's rival, the captain of the enemy football team, and the boy who always smirks when he wins. He's loud, cocky, and impossible to ignore... especially when he starts looking at her like she's more than just her brother's little sister. She knows better than to fall for someone wearing the wrong colors. But when late-night arguments turn into stolen glances, and those glances turn into something she can't quite name, the rules start to blur. Now, every game feels like a secret war between her heart and her loyalty. Because in a town where football decides everything, loving him might just be the biggest betrayal of all.
Falling Between Deadlines by cloudtext
78 parts Ongoing
In the bustling halls of Riverside University, two students couldn't be more different. Ava Reyes, a journalism major known for her soft heart and sharp words, believes in truth, empathy, and good coffee. Liam Cruz, a perfectionist business major, believes in results, logic, and winning especially when it comes to the annual campus writing competition. They've clashed since freshman year her messy notes against his color-coded spreadsheets, her warmth against his cool detachment. When fate (and a meddling professor) pairs them for the university's biggest creative project, sparks fly and not the friendly kind. But deadlines have a way of forcing people together. Between late-night coffee runs, heated arguments, and unexpected laughter, Ava and Liam begin to realize: maybe love doesn't start with butterflies. Maybe it starts with irritation, shared coffee cups, and the quiet realization that you've stopped trying to win.
