N.B. I am not a professional writer, this is my first attempt at writing so I do hope you enjoy :)
Tia Cameron just moved to New York from California after struggling there by herself, she decided it was time to move closer to her best friends who are her backbone in hopes of being able to stabilize herself. After moving and meeting Marcus her life became more unstable than it ever has been.
(PREVIEW)
"Jesus fucking Christ Tia ! Can't you see that this whole thing is a complete waste of your time? Can't you see that he is a waste of time ?
At this point I've pretty much had enough of Sher talking about him like this, i'm just tired of this whole arguement. "Okay Sher, I get it, you don't like him, you probably never will but honestly I just Iwant this conversation to be over" I said in the calmest voice I possibly could while my anger was just boiling inside me.
"I mean I love you and I think you deserve better..." she paused for a while then exhaled loudly "I hope you know that you deserve better too, I'm only concerned about you Tia, i want the best for my best friend"
Her response made me soften up to her a bit, she truly only meant well. I went around the kitchen island and wrapped her up in my arms and just hugged her in silence for a while.One thing I love about my best friend was that she understood what my silence meant and I'm sure she could feel my appreciation for her concern in this hug. I released her then went to my room so I could just unwind and try to erase the memory of what I saw earlier tonight and how it made me feel but I just couldn't control the warm tears that started rolling down my cheeks.

What did that even mean? He chuckled at my deer-in-headlights expression. There was no way I would not remember losing my virginity to Jake. Hell, I'd memorize every second of it. "What do you mean?" I asked slowly, my stomach doing somersaults. Please tell me I'm jumping to the wrong conclusion. Pretty please. "Well," he started, a gleam in his eyes. "First, you grabbed the blanket and ripped it right off of me." I blinked at him, a horrified expression on my face. I slapped his hand away from my hair and turned around. Yup, there it was. Lying on the floor, along with my dignity. He continued solemnly. "And then, you climbed up on top of me." Could you die from your face overheating?

Secret Santa ✔️
"You had no right to do that," I snap, trying my best to out walk him. His chuckle was loud behind me and his hand griped on my forearm, stopping me. Something about his warmth gave me chills all over my body. Something I don't think I ever wanted in the first place. Especially from him and especially now. "Yes I did, and I still do." His hard grip around my arm loosened, and snaked up to lock his fingers through my hair. Oh Momma, what is happening? Being this close to him has been happening way too often for normal. Still, I couldn't break away from this close contact, I was frozen, shocked. "What makes you think that?" My question hit him with humor, and instead of fully responding, he leans his face closer to mine. The smirk on his face stayed once he noticed the affect he had on me. "Because," he whispers out pressing our bodies together. "I'm your Secret Santa," he licks his lips as if he's hungry, then continues, "I can give you anything I want to give you." His free arm wraps around my waist, and he lifts me up during the action before pressing our lips together. The main character is Kimberly.

Anomalies ✔
"I am the textbook definition of in love with you." *** Castor Rex: He's snarky, quiet and mysterious. A secret keeper. He doesn't like his life to be on display. People avoid him, even if they respect him. Jasper Red: He's polite, nice and helpful. A open book. He likes filling his life with other people and their love. People love him, they can't help it. Because of his quiet nature, snarky smirks and sarcastic words Castor has always had a hard time when it came to making friends -and keeping them. Something Jazz doesn't struggle with. With Jazz's protective nature, shyness and many friends he doesn't need someone else to fill a spot in his life -at least, that's what he thought. Then they met. And that empty part in Jazz's heart felt a little bit bigger because he started to realize Cas could fill it. Cas sees him as a grinning, happy dork he has no chance with. Jazz sees him as a adorable, grumpy jock that now, is his. Castor wants to get through the school year as quietly as possible but with how loud Jazz loves, neither of them know if it's possible, and to make matters worse they're roommates for the rest of the year. It's only a matter of time before they come together or fall apart. *** As a private person, someone who doesn't share myself with others, I can say that learning how to interact with others is difficult. It's like baking, almost, you have to mix the right ingredients together, and if you add the wrong ones things can taste hideous even if they look good. It's a lot like our words. But I've mastered how to tell someone just a little about myself but doing it in a way that makes the person in front of me think they know a lot. Jasper, somehow, sees through this every fucking time and it's absolutely infuriating. He's never satisfied with just a little of me, with my hidden truth, and it's the most annoying thing I've ever experienced. *** @STESLARA made the second POV in her book 'Jasper Red's Anomaly'Complete
