"Mommy, why do you give me kisses?" It was something Daisy had always wondered about.
Her mother looked down at her tiny three year old body, "I give you kisses because I love you."
Daisy and Rian have always been inseparable. Since birth they've been best friends. When they were little they were told that the way to show love was by kissing. It's what their parents did. They grew up to love each other, and because they loved each other they showed it by kissing. As they grew up it became a tradition. It's something they've never thought about. They're determined that the stereotype about best friends falling in love romantically is only that. A stereotype. Not a fact. Besides the unloved hopeless romantic, in love with the guy who never wants to fall in love? Let’s be real, there’s no way we could happen.

Riley and Devin
"How many romance books do you read?" Devin asks me. I shrug. "I like them," I say. I keep browsing, running my fingers along the spines. "So, you like romance then?" he asks me. I nod. "What's your favorite part of a love story?" "I like the very first kiss, but I like the second one even more," I say. I bite my lip and look at him. Oh. My. God. What the hell am I doing? Am I flirting? I think that I'm actually flirting. With Devin. Devin, my best friend. I have officially lost my mind. I should probably stop. But I can't seem to. "Will you grab me that one?" I ask. I point above my head, my back's pressed against the bookcase. He locks his gaze on mine and reaches over me to grab the book I asked for. "Thanks." I don't move and neither does he. Riley and Devin have been best friends forever-since Kindergarten. It's Senior year of high school, now. And it's always been simple, Riley's got his back, he's got hers. But as life goes on Riley can't help but wonder if maybe he's not just her best friend, if she likes him as possibly something more. As her feelings deepen and become something greater it becomes more evident that she's falling, really hard. No matter how hard Riley tries she can't stop falling, she can't stop from loving him. Even if it tears her to pieces or even if it destroys their friendship. Pretty soon Riley is going to have to choose between walking the safe line of friendship or taking the unpaved path of love. Will she risk everything for love?Complete
Just a Kiss
"Now I'm going to tell you something and I want you to listen. I don't want either of you kissing anybody or being kissed is that understood?" our mother said sternly. "But why mommy?" Haley asked as curious as I was. "Darling it's important you do as mommy says because a kiss, a kiss can last forever. How do you think babies are created? You should only kiss someone if you really love them and that would only be once you are an adult not a child. I don't want either of you kissing before you are eighteen is that understood?" our mother said. My jaw dropped open wide in shock from what she had just said. I became fascinated and frighten both at the same time. I told myself then and there I would never kiss anybody as long as I lived. I didn't want to disobey our mother and end up pregnant. *Story contains male pregnancy.*Complete

Give It Two Weeks
{Completed} Elizabeth Walker wasn't much of a social butterfly, to put it lightly. She actually preferred to spend her time by herself, where she could think in peace, which she planned to do on her family's two-week long beach vacation. However, her parents did not seem to understand that concept at all. In fact, they were all but mad that she wasn't out being a normal teenager. So, her mom practically forced her to spend time with the rude boy they met in the elevator. (Something about being more social? Who needs social time, anyways?) All she could think about was how rude this boy was. Hayes was nothing but trouble, the tattoo on his chest told her that much. But when he insists on betting that she will fall for him in two weeks, she agrees to the bet, positive that she would never even come close to falling for him. (She is nothing if not competitive.) Will she fall for Hayes before the two weeks are up? I mean, sure he can sing really well. And sure, he's kind of hot. Okay really hot. But seriously, he's just some rude boy from an elevator. There's no way she'd fall for him. Right? "Give It Two Weeks"Complete

The Heartbreaker Agreement
You can't back out, you can't tell another soul, and you can't fall in love, until they say 'I love you' on their own, with no pushing and you can't say it first. That's the agreement; you have to pull every trick he's pulled and make him fall in love. That's what I swore to do; it was a best friend pact and there was no going back on it. Worse, I already knew how I would begin. The Heartbreaker Agreement was in motion the moment I said, 'I swear to be a heartbreaker.' If only I had really understood the meaning of those words and how they would affect me.Complete
