-Cover by strawberryM1KO-

Elijah McCarthy is... To put it simply, a very complex person. He's devilishly handsome, but he doesn't flaunt it, and I'm sure if I asked him about it, he'd scowl and grumble, 'you're a nuisance'.

Funny he says that, seeing as he's the biggest pain in the ass the world has ever been graced with. Grumpy, childish, rude and stubborn are the words I usually associate with him. And I've only known him for a month.

Sometimes he seems like not that bad of a person, but then I go to school and get harassed by him and his friends, so... *shrugs*

Mom keeps telling me that I'd look pretty In pink. I guess for just one day, I could trade my sweats in for a skirt.

It's not like it'd magically change everything... Right?

Wrong.

***

This book is an Original Academy Fanfic. I drop little hints, but you won't understand the references if you're not an Academy reader, and it'll just sound weird. Otherwise, you don't have to know Academy. You're really missing out if you don't, though. 

Oh, and Elijah swears a lot.

Joe Smith. A basic name but there was nothing basic about him. With his chiselled features, green eyes that could pin you to the spot and a smile that meant trouble, he had all the girls in school crazy over him. Well everyone, except me, Amber Woods. And my best friends, Alice and Selena. That's what I thought until he broke Alice's heart. Naturally, we had to get him back somehow. Selena thought a prank would suffice. But I knew that would start a whole load of drama that none of us could have expected. Did I mention I wanted this year to finish drama free? Unfortunately that was proved impossible by a certain playboy who went by the name of Joe Smith. "Loved it so much!" - Sup3rSab3r #81 in Teen Fiction (cover by @beautifullyyoung)

However when Isabella seeks comfort with tall dark and handsome Drew, Lukas tries everything in his power to keep the two apart. Lukas is trouble, Isabella way too good to be his type, but still they can't stay away from each other. ❄️ "Lukas, are you hugging me? Is coldhearted Lukas hugging a girl?" My drunk tongue blurted out. "Shut up, I'm just keeping you from falling face down in the toilet." He whispered in my ear and I felt his breath against my skin. "Yeah right. You are soooo hugging me." I teased him knowing he was indeed hugging me, but he was too stubborn to admit it. "No, I'm not." He said, pulling me even closer to him before curving his lips against the skin behind my ear. He's such a goner... ❄️ NOTE: 👀 please ignore the way the first ten chapters are written. First book ever and that's noticeable. It gets so much better after those I promise.
Someone Like Adam by mahumwrites

"You know, it won't physically hurt you to be nice for once." I crossed my arms in front of my chest and groaned. "I don't want to take a chance." the corner of his lips lifted a little as he finished his sentence. "Well, you don't hear me complaining. The view of a someone so desperately working out is not a delight either." I retorted in a weary voice. "I bet it isn't." he narrowed his eyes at me and commented. Ugh.. Why is he so damn annoying? "You know what, just take your arrogant ass out of my room." I scowled at him, pointing towards the door. With small steps, he walked towards me. I took a step backwards when he neared me. He was invading my personal space, making me a bit flustered. The urge to push back his golden-brown hair covering his forehead was increasing with every passing second. "Gladly." he mumbled against my face and then walked past me out of my room. It took me a minute to calm down my racing heartbeat. ... He was a mystery, an enigma I wanted to solve. He was exhausting, he was infuriating, yet staying away from him was not an option. He was making me feel things I haven't felt before. Adam McArdle! Who are you and what are you doing to my poor little heart? ... #1 in GENERAL FICTION (23-05-2019) #1 in CHICKLIT (21-07-2019)

High school, a teenager's hell, but it can also be a place where you start on a path you didn't even know you were on. After the incident he was in his freshman year causing him not only to be homeschooled, but gain some serious insecurities, Elijah Mulligan has decided to be brave and come back in person for his senior year. That is, after the new football coach of two years, his father, convinces him to meet some of the players he's been coaching. One in particular catches his eye, and despite swearing to himself he'd never fall for someone again, before he knows it the captain of the football team is coming over to study with him and sooner than he likes Elijah finds himself staring into his eyes more than just a friend should. Growing up, all he wanted was to be loved as much as he loved others. What with an emotionally and physically absent step mother and a distant father who doesn't realize his son isn't a straight-A making machine, Chase Lawrence has developed a bad habit of stressing way too much over school work and having a burning desperation for a distraction. That didn't tend to mix well with his current girlfriend of three months who he's never gone on a single date with because she always had an excuse. Then, all of a sudden the endless loop of exhaustion and disappointment breaks when Chase finds himself magnetically drawn towards his Coach's son, and looking at him a lot more than someone already in a relationship should. So, what happens when a boy still recovering from the trauma he gained his freshman year and a quarterback wanting a relationship where he can finally be himself, start to like each other? Well, hopefully, maybe, they can give each other some stress relief. *** Copyright status: [All rights reserved]
The Nerd Who Rules The School by Crazy_Fangirl2524
59 parts Complete
"Who do you think you are? You are just some nerd." He sneered at me, looking down at me like he already owned this place. I chuckled at his ignorance, "Honey, I'm the nerd who rules the school." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You know those cliché stories where it is either 'player and nerd', 'bad boy and nerd', 'bad girl and nerd', 'bad girl and bad boy' etc. What do all those have in common? Well, there's always a nerd that's weak and bullied. That's either the damsel in distress or she suddenly turns badass. But sorry to say, my story is completely different. People fear me, no one dares to bully me, even the cheerleaders and our school's star quarterback bow down to me. Oh you think I'm the 'bad girl'? Sorry, but I'm the nerd who rules the school.

He's smirking down at me as he says, "Um, you're in my seat." I laugh and say, "You realize that is the most cliche thing you could possibly say?" He looks confused so I elaborate. "It's the first day of school and you're coming up the new girl, claiming I'm in your seat. Sorry, but it's not very original." He huffs and rolls his eyes. "Get out of my seat, sunshine." "Watch it happen, pretty boy." I reply, smirking as I stuff my other earbud back in. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Madeline Lace is the youngest of six, the older five being all brothers. Her brothers love her, but due to their pathetic excuse for a father, their overprotective nature spirals into straight up helicopter parenting. Getting a fresh start by moving away from the bad memories, they're bound to run into a few new problems. One of which being their cocky, self-assured next door neighbor who isn't too discreet about taking an obvious liking towards Maddie. Her hope that he'd give up and leave her alone diminishes when his dorky personality starts to shine through, growing on her. The easy option would be to ignore the obvious attraction, but then again, it's hard to deny the undeniable. -------------------------- thank you to @meha-k for this amazing cover!

❝"Milo please tell me this is you?" "...Yea, it's me." I bitting back a smile as my arms subconsciously drifted around him. One hug. One hug wouldn't hurt. One sentimental moment wouldn't hurt. "I've missed you." He hugged tighter, and I felt like I was going to snap. "M-Me too, but you're going to fucking snap me in half if you hug any tighter." I gasped and I felt him quickly let go and pull away. "Sorry. I just didn't think I'd see you after so long." He looked at my outfit. "You changed your style." "You too." I say. He has on white shorts that has two draw strings lazily hanging, with a plain black shirt. I clear my throat, "Yea, I just wanted to say hey to my new roommate, but um- yea, see you!" I quickly dart down the stairs, my face was getting redder by the second. I didn't want him to suspect I still like him. But my wrist was caught by a hand when I made it to the living room. "Did I do something wrong?" "No, why would you think that." I try to play it off with a laugh, but it was an awkward laugh, like I was nervous. Which I was. And he clearly caught on. "Because you're literally running away." I hear walking and I look up, and shit. There was Damien. His signature dragon tattoo on his arm, the soft green eyes his and everything that made him, him. He looked up and saw us. His eyelids raised as his mouth opened a little. "Caleb... Milo?"❞ _________ 𝕊𝕥𝕒𝕣𝕥𝕖𝕕 (07/28/24) 𝔼𝕟𝕕𝕖𝕕 (11/15/24)
