Bad Girl's Nerd by _angry_human_

"To what do I owe this honor?" his voice is trembling with laughter. Jee-buss... he finds this funny... "I saw a butterfly and followed it in here?" I more like ask. He starts laughing. I can only stare. I am loving this. I love this sound. I love this clear view of his forest-green eyes without any glasses. He puts his head on my shoulder as he continues to laugh. "Oh dear, is that what it would take me to get you in my room?" he wipes his eye releasing my hands. I want to answer, 'No... All you need to do is smile and I'll follow you anywhere'. But I keep my mouth shut. He is looking down at me. "Seriously, why are you here? Tell me before I start assuming...." he raises his eyebrow suggestively. ........................................

Can't Stay Away by AryannaRey

People say when you love something, it's hard to stay away no matter what; it could be a deadly disease and you still won't be able to stay away. From two different worlds but two sides of the same coin. It's almost like you're within reaching distance from them but yet you aren't allowed to touch them, embrace them, love them, have them. You could only admire them and dream of them. Ophelia Danvers comes from a rich and snobbish family. One that looks down on people even if their filthy rich like them. But she isn't like them at all. Non-judgmental and kind until pushed and not to mention that she's a hopeless romantic. Like every queen, they need to find their king but what if her king isn't the fortunate type? Trevor King, cold and stone hearted punk from other side of the tracks, is a student at Lakeford high. You could say he's a bad boy, delinquent, even lawless thug and that's true but there's more to him. Only his mother sees it. He isn't a player and shows no interest in dating; all girls are the same to him, that is until he meets Ophelia. Will he be able to keep his cold act up or will he finally be thawed? Warnings: Contains swearing, mentions of sex, mentions of verbal abuse and manipulation.

Dickhead Syndrome by imfullofpain

The story of bullying and romance and gangs. And abuse. It shows how any life can get out of hand. "My boyfriends father is choking me! Because I won't let him rape me!" Does she give in or not? "My family will be looking for you and me. They will come save me so you better let me go." "Your family isn't your family no more we hear that you have gone different paths is that not true. And before you lie. We have a lie detector here. And if anyone goes looking for you they will see your note that you will be gone for awhile." My fear started to eat at me. The overthrowing urge of vomiting came across my body. Does she get out or is she gone forever.
