My Boyfriend's Brother by im_kendra
9 parts Ongoing
Some love stories begin with a kiss. Others begin with a lie. Elisa Kai never meant to fall for the golden boy next door. Damien Jackson was everything she wasn't-effortless smile, easy confidence, and the kind of charm that made the whole world orbit around him. Elisa? She was the quiet girl everyone whispered about-the one who stared at the Jacksons' perfect life from her window, convinced she didn't belong in their world. Convinced she didn't belong at all. But then, she crossed a line. And Damien chose her. For a while, it felt like a dream. Like she was finally more than just the rumors. But every fairytale has a shadow. Drake Jackson is that shadow. Damien's younger brother is sharp where Damien is soft, chaotic where he's calm-and he watches Elisa like he knows exactly what she's hiding. He's arrogant. Infuriating. Always one step too close with a smirk that drives her insane. And worse? He never goes away. When Damien leaves for college, everything changes. Drake becomes the new king of the school while Elisa is fighting to make a name for herself in fashion. And what was once teasing turns into something darker. Something magnetic. Then Damien comes back. Now Elisa is caught between the boy who made her feel seen-and the one who never stopped watching. Old sparks reignite. New tensions boil over. What started as a simple love story begins to unravel into something far messier, far more dangerous. Secrets simmer beneath the surface-about the past, about what's real, and about the Jackson brothers themselves. And then...tragedy shatters everything. What follows is heartbreak, silence, and blame. As the rumors grow louder, the whispers get crueler, and her world spins further out of control, Elisa must face one truth: Sometimes, the person who saves you... is also the one who could destroy you. And not every love story survives the truth.

"You should care, Dylan. You would still be living in the back of a car, stealing from Seven Eleven! Is that what you want?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The "Four Musketeers." That's what they called them. If they weren't all together they were two on two. And they give zero fucks about life. The Adopted one The Bad boy The Player The Best friend Dylan is like most troubled girls. She doesn't care about her grades, she skips school, hangs with the wrong crowds, and hates her parents. But of course there's a reason for all of this. Dylan is adopted. Dylan has always struggled with being adopted and she tends to fight everything in life. Many bad memories cause her to be the way she is. She desperately wants to forget her past, including some bad things she experienced, but the memories stay stuck in her mind. Dylan has three best friends who help her get by. The only three people she 100% trust and doesn't like to. They all have their own problems and lies they tell, but they help each other through it all. Especially her boyfriend Vince, who would do absolutely anything for her. He would die a thousand times over before anyone hurt Dylan. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Dylan's not just my whole life, she makes my life whole. Some days she's the only reason I get out of bed. Without her in my life there is no point in living. She's like the air I breathe. Without her I can't live. She's my best friend and I will love her to the day I die." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This summer Dylan gets the opportunity to do what every guidance counselor has claimed she's always wanted to do . . . split up her family. Will she realize splitting up her family won't help anything? Or will she just not care? After all she was abandoned once.

COMPLETED, CURRENTLY EDITING/PARTIALLY REWRITING (please excuse the mess. Some of the plot is being changed so there might be a few areas that get confusing, nothing too much though) Funny how life decides to act like a roller coaster. The ups and down come in a split second. You can't decide whether you want fast or slow. Dangerous or steady. But you don't get a choice. You go with the flow. No matter what. I'm Phoenix Wood, the misfit, and outcast of my town. Instead of a roller coaster my life's more like a train wreck. My adventure loving parents were lost at sea and I was left to my aunt Clare Small. Like I said, train wreck... Not roller coaster, TRAIN WRECK. Not to mention the fact that I end up stuck with the bad boy. Could it get any worse? Secrets unravel and life gets a bit more complicated that it used to be. But it must go on. She's stuck with the bad boy. Or is it the other way around? Maybe he's stuck with the bad Girl... * WARNING: this book is my first work, it'll be a bit rough at the start and sometimes I'll accidentally mess up the story line or it will seem ridiculously stupid, so read at your own risk (I will admit, this book is like my baby, so please be kind when correcting my errors). It gets much better about half way through. If you'd like to read a book of mine that is much better written, go to my profile and find the book Breathe Me. Thanks! (Seriously though, there's a TON of mistakes, some made because I'm currently editing, so the story line could get confusing in some places) Originally published: 2 / 13 / 2014 Completed: 1 / 9 / 2017 Finished Editing: (Not finished yet) Highest rank: #303 in Teen Fiction (1-10-2017)
