"Jamie, how long is it going to take until you let yourself be happy?"
Jamie shifts away from Tristan's gaze, knowing that if he looked at him, the tears in his eyes would escape. They both sit in silence, allowing the other one to think.

"How can I be able to love someone else, when I can barely love myself?"

"-Jamie, what are you going to do, when the waters get rough?"
{Or}
Orphan, abused, scarred, lonely, abandoned.
These are words that would describe Jamie Hunters.
All anyone knows is that he's a sophomore, and that he's the school's punching bag; but there is so much more.
Jamie is an orphan. His parents both died, leaving him with guilt. Mainly, being that he killed his father by accident in a boating trip. After that experience, he could never look at pools or oceans the same. Although Jamie has had a tough life, there will always be someone that can help him through his darkest of days.
Tristan Woods.
He's been Jamie's best friend since they were in kindergarten, and Jamie sees him as his brother that he never had. Tristan, having mutual feelings, just wants his life long friend to be happy. So, once he hears about this 'new girl' coming to their school, he's all in to help Jamie.
Jamie, however, believes that he doesn't need a girl to be happy.
Tristan, of course, doesn't listen and does his best to help Jamie out through everything.
But what started as a fun little 'game' to help cheer Jamie up, turns into something way more.
Will this new girl actually help Jamie with his happiness? Can she be the one that can put Jamie's broken parts back together? Or will she just go along with her life, leaving him to his.

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!

It Wasn't Love ✔️
"Fuck." He whispers into my neck, sending a thrill of excitement through my body. His lips still smothered kisses over my neck and his hands roamed my body, starting at my chest, going down to my stomach. Caressing my soft skin, his thumb trailed circles on my groin before slightly slipping into the waistband of my jeans. My breath catches in my throat as I pull at the hoodie that covered his chiselled body. Understanding, Jacob pulls it off in one swift movement before attaching his lips back on my neck. Sucking and biting it before flicking his tongue over the sore spot. A quiet moan leaves my mouth and I clasp my hand over it, denying any noise to escape.
