"I dare you to kiss the girl on your right." The girl on the right. . . my sleep deprived mind made out sluggishly. Girl on the right, it repeated again and my eyes flew open, all atom of sleep disappearing from them. I was the girl on the right! *** Bullied for the colour of her skin ever since she could remember, Olayinka doesn't know what it means to be accepted. She's called trash and treated as an outcast all because of the school's resident bad boy and top bully, Kian Fields. Senior year starts with Kian suddenly becoming very nice and naive Olayinka, unaccustomed to this type of attention and desperately wishing for acceptance, begins to fall for him. That is, until Jayden Ross enters the equation. Jayden is nerdy, wears ugly glasses and is definitely not Olayinka's kind of guy. But as he aids Olayinka in standing up for herself, she can't help but be drawn to his shy and gentle exterior. With Kian showering his attention on her and Jayden, who looks out for her all the time, Olayinka is attracted to both of them. Could this be her very own love triangle or is it just in her head? But maybe, just maybe she'll finally be able to live as any other teen her age would, worrying about boys and perhaps she'll finally be considered normal. *** Second Place in Teen Fiction Category for The Undiscovered Awards 2020*** ***Feautured in Wattpad Ambassador NG reading list*** ***First Place in Teen Fiction Category for The Evergreen Awards*** ***Third Place in Teen Fiction Category for The Faith Awards***

Too Good to Be Real by royalty__writes

She felt his warm palm on her wrist and at once she was facing him. Without warning, his lips engulfed hers, setting her on fire just like she did him. His lips were warm and soft and she revelled in it as she shut her eyes, her body instantly warming up to the kiss. She wrapped her arms around him, marvelling at how their bodies fit perfectly together. It felt so good, like her head was rotating. Nothing else mattered. Just the two of them. This was all she needed. Someone who accepted her for her. Her flaws, her beauty, herself, hook line and sinker. She withdrew reluctantly, angry she had to stop the kiss and also afraid someone had seen them. As she stared into his eager eyes, she knew she loved him but she couldn't help thinking she was doing the wrong thing. She loved him, but it wasn't fair to his girl. She could do anything, run, apologise, but she followed her heart. She drew him back and continued the kiss. A Nigerian themed story bound to leave you yearning for the next chapter.

"Excuse me miss, can I have the time?" I say. She reaches for her phone. "I'd check my watch but I can't take my eyes off you." She stares at me with a weird smile. Maybe she didn't get it. "Well can I follow you home?" Her eyebrows shifted in question. "My parents always told me to follow my dreams." This time she gives me a real smile but nothing else. "Have you ever been flirted with?" She shakes her head side to side silently. What? The girl with the smooth caramel skin, big brown eyes, and soft curly hair has never been flirted with? I almost gasp. "Stop kidding." I say not believing her. "I'm being serious." She says, her voice as smooth as her skin looks. "So, would you mind hanging out sometime?" I say almost a little nervous of rejection. That feeling's kind of new. "Are you sure you wanna go out with me?" She says a little surprised by my proposal. "Yeah, I mean you are beautiful." I say. Usually, compliments make girls smile or giggle, but she seemed uncomfortable. Bad start. She paused for a moment thinking. "Yeah, sure. I'd love to hangout." She says with a small smile. "Great. What's your name ?" I say almost ashamed that I don't know her name by now. "Diana. You?" "Reece." "It was nice meeting you Reece." She says getting up with her tray. "You too Diana." I say, relieved that she was leaving. The giddy, nervous feeling made me loose my appetite. CupidsBFF~ ~All Rights Reserved ~Fight of the Realest~ Reece King Fanfic
