african american drama romance

*High School 
(n.)Where self-esteem, innocence, and dreams go to die.

Being a teenager in high school is hard enough with all the fake studying and the invisible cliques  but then when you add on the unneeded amount of drama and the unsatisfying memories of mean girls (aka the bitch squad) you might as well just try to make the most of it and suck it up, if that's even possible.

Introducing Rebecca Clark (preferably called Bex), a member of the Middleton Yearbook committee and a considerably good artist if I do say so myself. Besides the fact of sharing a mother with not 1, not 2, but 3 desirable and interestingly unique clan of sisters, I also have a cat...her names foxy. 

Like any other cliche teen love story there is a knight and shining armor or a Jock name Jalen Stone-Jackson. Introducing Jalen a  17 year old, playboy jock with a slick grin and perfect teeth, also known as my future boyfriend but we aren't at that part yet.

Both teens struggling with peer pressure and the difference in values and background experiences find each other in ways more than one but can their differences withstand their blooming love?

Fall For Me by emilyann-

Completed - He had me pinned against the wall outside of his dorm late at night. He was staring down at me angrily. I was confused to say the least. "Are you okay, Jackson?" "No," He shook his head. "Pissed." I was about to ask why but then he continued. "I'm supposed to be a player, Jaycee." He groaned. "But here you are, fucking making me fall for you." What had I done to make him fall for me? Then he smashed his lips onto mine. ~•~ Jaycee was smart, she accepted that. She wasn't the prettiest (in her own eyes) but she accepted that. She was quiet and sweet, she accepted that. What she didn't accept? Someone to be disrespectful toward her. Jackson isn't very intelligent, he accepted that. He was gorgeous, he definitely accepted that. He was loud and obnoxious, he accepted that. What he didn't accept? Someone to reject him. When these two cross paths, it's like Mother Nature was asking for love, hate, loss, betrayal, etc. ••• reached #5 on Teen Fiction May 4th 2015

Jesse's Girl (COMPLETE) by xHeatLifex

They had both been dealt enough tragedy in their short teenaged lives, more than anyone should ever have to endure. Will two self destructive teens coming together do more harm than good? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I don't know what came over me. The poor guy just asked if he could help and I went all 'crazy psycho bitch' on his ass. I couldn't breath. I needed water. I needed air. Fuck why was is it so hot in here. Was it the fact that the moment his hand left my skin I felt an unbearable need to feel his touch again or was it hearing him ask if I needed help that made me feel helpless and broken once again. I didn't know what it was but I felt like I was suffocating, like the jersey I was wearing was strangling every ounce of oxygen from body. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ * This story had been reviewed recently.

The Badboy Smokes by Whos_that_again

*under construction, recent name change (Jenna and Lib is the same person)* '"Hollie, when I first saw you, I thought of you as a rabbit. A quiet aspect of nature that eats grass," Jayce says, "You see a rabbit all the damn time because they're everywhere. But whenever you see one, you can't help but say 'bunny!' because it's even adorable when they try to be threatening." "It's Lee," I answer, and turn to go find Jenna.' Hollie intends to keep her senior year of highschool as lowkey as possible. She decides that she'll avoid all unnecessary drama and work hard on her grades--afterall, she needs to get into a good college. Her plan is disturbed by the private school transfer student who goes by Jayce. Jayce was expelled from his private school after getting caught smoking weed in the bathroom. This is the exact opposite type of energy that Hollie needs in her life. But maybe she can make an exception. 'I move a little so I don't get hit by a mass of anger and all things bad and evil that comes to a physical shape called Jayce. Markus has stood up by now, glaring at him, though he has a little fear in his eye. I feel that this is how everyone feels when they look at Jayce--angry, but afraid.'

If No One Else by stoneco1d

𝟏𝟖+| I was said to be 𝐭𝐨𝐨 𝐝𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐝, 𝐭𝐨𝐨 𝐢𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞... 𝐭𝐨𝐨 𝐮𝐧𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞. I had heard it so much in my life that it had manifested into a truth that remained rock solid in my brain. It consumed every surface of my body and mind like a deadly cancer It had become a promise to myself. A reminder. A standard. It was a rule applied to every person in my life, except him... He was the same as I was; no matter how different our outside identities were. We were cut from the same cloth on the inside. There was no denying that he and I were both broken souls left in a broken world. Both craving an eternal slumber before we met, but his darkness played so well with mine that suddenly it began feeling more like light, warmth, goodness... a happy ending.

But when one of her parties get out of hand and the cops are called, she's in for a rude awakening as she comes face to face with the new guy in town: Officer Herrera. He's wasn't like the usual officers she dealt with, and she finds that out quite quickly as she gets dragged away to jail for the night. They both wish to never see each other again, but there was something stronger than their dislike for each other keeping them together. The stronger their dislike grows, the more attached they become, until the lines become so blurred that they can't tell the difference between hatred and love anymore. They could say they hated each other, but if anything, a small part of them knew it would turn into love. If that love would last once everything was revealed... It was only a matter of time before they found out. ----

Trying Not To Love (COMPLETED) by Books_and_nerds

I stepped forward and asked, "Where do you want me?" It took me a second to realize what I just said. Shit! I placed a hand on my crimson face and muttered, "Get your head out of the gutter! You know what I meant." He laughed, his voice sounded hoarse and deep even when he's laughing. I peeked at him from the gap I made between my fingers. He was close. So close. He grabbed my hand and took me to the bed. Damn! It did sound sexy. His shirt was loose. Too large for me, and it hung on me like a cloth hung on a hanger. He sat on the bed, criss crossed and pulled me to him. ♡♡♡♡♡ The thing about love is... its unpredictable. Even when you don't want love, it just happens.
