Nora Hastings is very happy with her life and is deeply in love with her boyfriend Nathan. With her dream job, perfect partner and amazing friends her life defines perfect.
But when she goes to a high school friends reunion she spots Mark Terrell.
Mark was Nora's biggest crush but also her biggest rival all through out school life. This is not a cliche story of old love resurfacing. It is a story that will unfold through memories and events about how their egos and rivalry kept Nora and Mark apart and made them stick to the "just friends" label throughout their childhood and in high school. How they would rather die than admit any feeling toward each other. How even though all Mark wanted to do was to kiss Nora he would just spit out sarcasm at her face. The face he found beautiful but sneered at and called ugly.They were friends who were attracted to each other sexually and maybe even through a stronger heart connection but their friendship was hesitant in their even expressing the slightest affection towards each other . The wall between them was a solid wall of Ego that their weak hearts were not capable of bringing down.
This story is a recount about a battle of Egos had only resulted in two hearts bleeding and straying apart as the struggle for pushing each other down only pushed away their innocent feelings.

"Was it... about me?" "What would you say if it was?" I cocked my head to the side, our eyes staying connected with each other. "I wouldn't say." he moved closer to me, towering over by the slightest bit as his breath surrounded my every nerve.

The Other Guy (BoyxBoy) ✔️
"I walked over to where Aaron was sitting on the ground, kneeling so that I was face-to-face with him. He was wearing a blank expression on his face so I guess he didn't really care if I kissed him or not. I took in a deep breath before taking his face in both of my hands and swooping down to kiss him. At first, I was so nervous I didn't realize that we were already kissing but after a few moments, I realized how soft his lips felt on my own. Before I can register it I felt him moving against me. I would have gotten off of him but I realize that he wasn't moving to get away from me. No, He was moving his lips against mine." °°°°° Aiden Moore isn't extraordinary. He has average looks, he is OK with sports, and his only strong point is that he is smart (although that doesn't mean much to his fellow classmates). And, of course, his virgin ass has never had a girlfriend, let alone a crush. It seemed as if he would never find someone. That was until he met her, Scarlett Hale. She was the most beautiful girl you will ever meet. Kind, sweet, and one of the few people with a higher GPA then him, she was amazing and Aiden imagined that she would be all his. Once Aiden gets rid of her boyfriend, Aaron Tyler. The most annoying guy you will ever meet, Aiden gags just thinking about him. The man is smoking hot and makes Aiden's dreams of getting the girl to seem very impossible. So what would happen if Aiden gets involved with the wrong person? Will Aiden get the girl? Will he fall short? Or will he fall into the arms of a guy who is in love with the girl he loves? _______________________________________ WARNING: First book EVER!
