The soles of my shoes were soaked as I ran through the rain. My tears mixed with the droplets on my cheeks as all of the emotions poured out. I pushed my feet faster, trying to ignore the other pair that were chasing after me.
"Max! Stop running!"
"No, just leave me alone!" I shrieked, my voice cracking.
A pair of hands grabbed me by the waist and ripped me around, my body slamming into another. I pounded my fists against his chest to no avail. He simply moved his hands to grip mine tightly against his cheek.
"Just let me explain! They were wrong!" I looked up into his eyes and they burned with sincerity but I couldn't trust him, not after what he did. With the rain as my aid, I slipped my hands from his and slowly backed away.
"Leave me alone!" I sobbed as I wheeled around into the street to cross the road.
I didn't hear his panicked warning, only the screeching of tires as the bus hydroplaned toward me.
****************************************
Hi, my name is Max. I'm in my second year of high school and I have plans to go to college. I love to spend time with my family and friends. I even have a crush on the quarterback of our high school football team! But he's my brothers best friend.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know. How cliché of me, but every time I see him smile, I just can't help but fall harder for him. Anyways, enough about boys, my best friend, Adrienne, is like a sister to me and we hang out every opportunity we get.
It's May now, and I am so ready for the school year to be done. Summer is going to be a blast! I'm going to spend the whole thing with Adrienne. Life couldn't get any better.

The Bad Boy Is My Neighbor
"Anyways, without further ado, are you in or are you out." "Are you joking?" "It's left to you babe." "You're kidding." I affirm, throwing my hand up in the air with my eyes wide open. "No baby strictly business." Dario stretches out his hands for a shake, nudging me to take it with his eyes. "Perfect," he whispers. "Now babe I think I deserve a kiss don't I?" I rolled my eyes at him, turning away. "Well fine then, have it your way." he said picking out his iPhone. I quickly aimed to grab his phone but he successfully avoided my hands, which left me no choice but to pull his head lower to my length and then place a small kiss on his lips. For the love of God. "Tsk tsk tsk, you really shouldn't be pecking me." he smirks. Yo, I mean it's a dream kissing him but I was expecting something maybe more romantic, you know, sweet not a fucking blackmailing deal. I placed another kiss on his lips. "That still wasn't a kiss babe." He whispers. For all the times he had called me babe, had my heart skipping beats. "Have you always been this sick or just fucked in the brain." I am playing with fire. I might as well just get burnt. "Never had experience?, well I'd be more than glad to teach you." He pulled me closer, staring at my lips with him subconsciously licking him, he almost looked dazed. Dario places his left hand on my waist and right hand at the side of my face before slowly connecting his lips to mine. The way he kissed, soft , the way he moved, slow. His lips felt so good against mine. I kissed him back gracefully, with him licking my bottom lips for entrance in which I gave him full access to devour my mouth with his. He pulled me closer to him as my hands found their way to his hair with me running my hands through his black soft hair, wishing the moments never stopped but it did, prior to the loud angry cloud above us. It felt so good, I was going to cry. Dario get what he wants when he wants. Read on.Abgeschlossene Geschichte

I spun around as much as I could, their grip was strong on my hair. I saw my brown hair in a tight grip, I trailed my eyes up a male's tattooed arm towards a pair of dark grey eyes, his eyelids were red and puffy, as if he had been crying, or he was high. His face was set in a glare, his dark hair, messy, as if all he had done to get ready was shake his head around. It was the guy, Adrien, who was separated from Riley's group. He was tall. I was average height, maybe even slightly above average but Adrien towered over me, I had to look up at him. "What fucking right do you have to come to his school." Adrien snarled. He knew.

"Don't run from me Blaze it won't go well," he growls reading my thoughts causing me to freeze in my spot. "Do not ever think you can get away from me."Abgeschlossene Geschichte
