city corruption drama family friendship friendstolovers future love romance school scifi social

When Teresa Willows wins a scholarship to an extremely prestigious school, she knows what to expect from the students who are far superior to her in looks, intelligence and status. But who cares when there's all those fancy foods and weird gadgets to try?

A complacent attitude did not prepare her for meeting Elliot Hadley however - a pleasant and charming boy with secrets of his own (which seems to be the norm with these pleasant and charming boys) - and Teresa finds herself unarmed in the face of drama, drama and more drama- oh, and also the romance.

Chasing Charming ✔️ by bearjordan

Complete! "You know I really like you, right?" He was definitely drunk. "You do?" I asked. My voice was supposed to be teasing, but I think it came off as a bit startled. He laughed, "Yeah, why else would I trust you with all my secrets?" -- Betty was many things; a romantic, a fashion designer, a bit more jealous than the average girl, great with a camera, a helpful daughter and a good friend. But she was best known for being nice. And usually, the boy did not want the 'nice' girl. But this summer she was going to prove to Mike, her crush since FOREVER, that nice was enough. She was going to have an amazing summer, a perfect Junior year, and finally have her first kiss. It was a foolproof plan. Moving from her childhood home in Arizona to New Mexico at the start of Junior year was never a part of Betty's plan. But sometimes when parents are involved, plans change. So now the nice girl had to start over at a new school in a new State. And when the (maybe not so bad) bad boy, Eli, gets involved, it might be hard to be known as 'the nice girl'.

The story of Clare and Elliot. Clare, the crazy but sweet and Elliot, the sweet but crazy. -@- He was quiet for a moment, and then, slowly, shifted his head slightly and pressed his lips against my neck. Fuck. My insides seemed to melt. By my sides, my fingers slackened. "You want the shameless type or the bashful type?" Pulling his head away from my shoulder, Elliot straightened. Gently shifting his cap up, he looked at me, grinning. "You tell me what you want. I'll do just that." ~ * ~ "My strategy was to make you pity me, so that you'll help me more actively." Elliot smiled faintly. "But it kinda feels like shit, with you looking at me like that." "Like what?" "Like you sincerely sympathize with me."
