To everyone else, they were Eleonora and Theodore Reed. To each other, they were Nora and Theo.
Eleonora grew up in a loving household, with a few too many nosey siblings, and a pair of slightly insane, but busy parents. She was never the outgoing type, much rather choosing to curl up in a blanket, reading a good book then go out and hang out with friends.
Theodore was a bit different. He grew up in a slightly different atmosphere, mainly surrounded by his grandpa and his best friend. He wasn't the bad boy type, nor was he the athletic type. Theodore was just Theodore, a slightly awkward boy who had his own moments of weakness.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Want to know why I call you Nora?" he asks while looking into my slightly curious eyes.
"Sure," I said, because he really was the only one who called me that.
"It's because Nora means light, and you are my light at the end of the day, the only person who keeps me waking up each day. Without you Nora, all I see is darkness."

Blinded by Limerence
"You, uh, plan to go out like that?" Furrowing my eyebrows, I cast my gaze downwards, and that's when I remembered I had changed into pajamas after my date. My face heated up - it was embarrassing to unintentionally let Trevor see my pajama set that was, unfortunately, adorned with little cartoon sharks. "I..." I mumbled, my eyes still glued to the sharks swimming around the navy blue fabric, hoping that maybe, just maybe, one would swallow me whole right here and now. I was tense, the atmosphere was awkward, but Trevor, being the smooth player that he was, chuckled, and the mere joyful sound tickled my ears and brought the smile back to my face. "Go change," he said, nudging me to go back inside my house. "Alright, I'll just be a second." × × × 17-year-old smitten Morgan Darhk's world revolves around her best friend's brother, Archer Hastings. The only thing is, he doesn't know she exists - or at least that's what she tells herself and what HE tells HIMself. Morgan thinks she's the only one going through a limerence when it's FAR from the truth. Meet Addison Hastings, Trevor Parks, Chase Humphrey, Hanna Abrams, Eric Carter, and Killian Adler, all fellow victims of the unrelenting limerence. Swept up in a world of betrayals, drama, lies of omission, secrets, and most importantly, passion, these high schoolers go through the one thing everyone has experienced at least once in his or her life, as if a rite of passage: the unrequited love. As Morgan tries to find out what - or more importantly, WHO - she wants in life, she discovers a deeper sense in all this BS... ...that love - or at least limerence - blinds us all to see what's really been in front of us this whole time. × × × ~ Blinded by Limerence ~ 09/01/20 - 07/15/22Complete
Life, Love & A Little Coffee
Graduation is right around the corner for Ada Sinclair. She's spent all of high school saving up for her dream college and skipped high school traditions to keep her grades up for scholarships. When the acceptance letter came in the mail, every ounce of her effort felt worth it. She's spent her life being a small fish in a small pond, but eagerly awaits September so she can spread her wings and move on to big things. When her mother comes home to reveal she is in the early stages of Huntington's Disease, a disease passed down from her own mother, she can't hide from the truth she may be next in line. It is then that her plans and dreams for her future shatter. Nothing is more important to her than her family, people who need her and her strength more than Ada needs her dreams. Not knowing how much time she has left with her mother, she makes the choice to remain at home and has no regrets. Only the fear of uncertainty. Feeling like the world is crashing down on her, Ada turns to the man who's been there for her for the last four years. He'd given her the confidence she needed to become the woman she is now, held her while she cried and has been there through every struggle she's faced. He seems fully willing to be there for her again, even if that means risking his career as a teacher; her teacher. As their friendship grows stronger, they find strength in one another and a connection they can only ignore for so long, a connection that comes with life-changing consequences for them both.Complete

"Okay, you know what? You're such a jackass and I never should have kissed you," I say. Colton stands up. His green eyes are just as angry as mine are. "Then why did you?" he asks. "I don't know!" I yell. "Why did you kiss me back?" "Hey, you kissed me," Colton says. "We already established that! God! It's like talking to a wall. Whatever I say just fucking bounces right off of you!" I yell. "Do you have any idea how maddening you are?" Colton looks at me. "You don't think you're infuriating?" Colton asks. I narrow my eyes. He starts to walk towards the door. I grab the M&M's and chuck them at Colton. He whips around, his eyes blazing green. "Where the fuck are you going? We're talking!" I yell, crossing my arms. He rubs the back of his neck where the M&M's hit him. "You wanna talk? Fine. Let's talk," Colton says. "You're obviously messed up from all of the shit your mom did." "Maybe I am! It's not your fucking business!" I pause. "Why do you even care? You're just some manwhore, right? A fuckboy?" Colton laughs dryly. "Is that what you think I am?" he asks.

His Arrogant Ways
Aaliyah/ Liyah- She's fierce and sassy. Has all the confidence in the world. Biggest problem? Hates people. Has one friend who she barely talks to. She can't stand people at all; especially arrogant jerks. Elijah- Ignorant, troubled and doesn't talk to people. He's never seen with anyone besides his best friends Jonah, Ethan, Jackson, Jay, Xavier, Alex, Toni and not to mention Eric. Never gets anything because he's captain of the basketball team. Jonah- Stubborn, hot, troubled just like Elijah, player and annoying. Xavier- Younger brother of Jonah, less troubled and annoying, keeps to himself. Jackson- 'Too ripped to care about anyone' so Aaliyah says. He loves his work out set and anything to do with the gym. Jay and Eric- Fraternal twins. They have different fathers because his mom was cheating, but is now happily married to a new man who will probably leave with her money in about two months. She doesn't seem to mind. Alex and Toni- Sisters who grew up with these oh- so famous boys. They've been close for years and don't really talk to any other girls aside from one another. They're close in age and with each other. I guess you could say they're 'conjoined at the hip'. When these people come together due to an incident resulting in them being stuck in school for twelve hours one night what will happen after? Will they keep in contact? Will Liyah find their arrogance too much? Or will she simply continue on like nothing happened?Complete
