*She wasn't looking for love - just snacks and a nap. But then he smiled...* ~True love? Unexpected. Emotional growth? Unwanted. Drama? Inevitable.~ Veronica D'Costa isn't exactly the main character type just - a regular teen: emotionally avoidant, chronically sarcastic, and fully committed to winging her way through life, with her loyal (and mildly chaotic) friend group. One night. One betrayal. That changed everything. Now Veronica's pretending, deflecting, and power-napping her way through emotions. But when a certain boy - golden-eyed, infuriatingly kind, and way too observant - starts asking the right questions, she'll have to do the one thing she's avoided all year: feel. Because surviving senior year means more than just acing math or mastering beer pong - it means facing what broke her, before she lets it define her. She's growing up. She's falling in love. And she might just be the main character after all. Messy, meaningful, and mildly chaotic - this is the year everything changes. Even her. P.S.- This isn't a fairy tale. It's a slightly sarcastic coming-of-age crisis.Complete![My Life: Feeling of Love [Completed]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/350935235-256-k53352.jpg)

Love you always
Book One of the Love You Series - Standalone. Sometimes the heart wants what logic swears is off-limits. Kyle Carter. By definition? My brother's best friend. To everyone else? Confident. Charismatic. The human version of sunshine. He walks into a room and people gravitate toward him-like he knows exactly who he is and where he's going. But behind the easy smiles and effortless charm is someone quieter, softer... someone who wants to be seen. Really seen. By one person alone. When you're part of the same friend group, running into each other is inevitable. Daily, even. Bickering became our version of talking, teasing became our shared language. But it's dangerous-the kind of dangerous where you start noticing just how beautiful someone is, and wondering how it's even fair to exist next to them. And feelings? They show up like a tidal wave I can't stop, no matter how many times I tell myself not to fall. Because Kyle Carter is off-limits. And I should know better. Ivy Kingston. Definition? My best friend's sister. The one girl who knows exactly how to push my buttons-and enjoys doing it. She's bold, reckless, and says things that get under my skin and stay there. She's trouble in the form of witty comebacks and the most intoxicating smile I've ever seen. She's not the little girl I used to tease anymore. She's... something else entirely. And it scares the hell out of me how much I want her. Feelings weren't supposed to be part of the equation-but here they are, crashing through every line I've drawn. And no matter how much I try to stay away, she pulls me in like gravity. They say if it's meant to be, it'll find a way. But there's always a but, isn't there? The truth is, I don't know if I'll ever get my happy ending. Hell, she is my happy ending. And I need her. More than anything.

The boy who used to be nurturing and open now pretends to joke around without a care. What he doesn't share is that he might want that promotion to fulfill his own voids just like her.

Astrid
Carter slowly walked towards me, butterflies swarming in my stomach, filling every inch of me. "Assi." he grabbed my wrists, and made me look at him. "Who was that song about?" "You know who." "Was it... about me?" "What would you say if it was?" I cocked my head to the side, our eyes staying connected with each other. "I wouldn't say." he moved closer to me, towering over by the slightest bit as his breath surrounded my every nerve. He leant down, took a sharp breath and connected our lips. - Astrid was a beautiful girl, who had lost her sense of who she was and where she belonged.

There are times when Lena wishes Adrian would just shut up, sit still and play nice.

Adrian has always been all about the parties, the fun, the travel, while Lena would prefer to sit on a cactus than to be in a room full of strangers.

Determined not to repeat the mistake of kissing him, Lena tries to push the memory away, only having to deal with Adrian's other shenanigans, such as coming into her apartment uninvited, meddling in her dating life and making a fool of her in front of a large group of people. You know, the usual. But when enough is enough and Lena finally finds the will to take a step back from Adrian's life, two plane tickets to their hometown threaten to dissipate her newfound resolve and thrust her into even more trouble. --------------- WARNING: Strong language.Complete
