Being by the side of Heatherway High's most popular student, Christian Sky, has been my dream. That dream was brought to reality, among the dreams hundreds of girls who wanted the same prize. But now that I got the cherry, I guess it wasn't as good as I thought it would be.
Christian Sky. Hot, rich, talented. Basically superstar material. He was everything ANY girl wished for. Heck, he was everything EVERY girl wished for. That was all before I got to know him, the true Christian.
You can call me crazy, or delusional - it doesn't matter. All I know is that wasn't the life I hoped for, and definitely not the hand I wanted to hold on to for the rest of my life. Taking care of something that only hurt you was tiring. It was greed, selfishness, and at the same time selflessness; the need to keep someone who only stood by your side to help you forget who you are.
The ride didn't start when we got together. It started when I let him go.

Umbrella [COMPLETED]
"Love is a decision, it is a judgment, it is a promise. If love were only a feeling, there would be no basis for the promise to love each other forever. A feeling comes and it may go. How can I judge that it will stay forever, when my act does not involve judgment and decision." ― Erich Fromm, The Art of Loving Can you handle a situation where you fall inlove with a geek and then suddenly, a popular guy falls head over heels for you but you don't feel the same way? Then what if your own bestfriend falls inlove with the man you love? Will you let go of him for your bestfriend? Or fight for what you feel? Will you change your old ways for one person? Or will you let go of that person just for the reason that you don't want to change? Love has its ways of manipulating people. It's your decision wether you get manipulated or not.

The Badass Nerd
"What the hell did you do!?" I heard a feminine voice behind me. I groaned and turned around to meet a very angry face. I have never seen a girl this pissed before and honestly speaking, I am a little bit afraid. "She knew what she was getting into. Everyone knows I am player and I never stick to one girl." I shrugged and turned around to walk away. I didn't even take one step when I felt a firm hand on my t-shirt. She took a fist full of my shirt and turned me around so I was facing her. She then held my collar. Damn, she is almost the same height as me and if I would have been any normal guy, I would be terrified of her. "You don't treat girls like trash, asshole. She has feelings, she is not some toy that you got bored from after playing for a while. Apologize to her." She said through gritted teeth pointing towards Leah who was crying her eyes out. I noticed the crowd that started forming around us. I shrugged her hand away from my t-shirt and glared at her. "I will not apologize to anyone." I said slowly through gritted teeth. She is starting to piss me off. No one clashes me and no one stands against me. Even though I am new here, everyone knows that. I saw her eyes go blank and before I could duck, her fist made contact with my face and I felt sharp pain coursing through my nose. I held my nose tight and felt warm liquid flowing to my lips.

Stolen Love (A Cartel Romance)
"What is your name?" I asked, staring into her doe-like eyes. Almost immediately her face twisted in horror. Her eyes switched back and forth frantically like an exit would suddenly appear out of thin air. The sides of her lips turned downward like it was taking everything in her not to burst into a sob. Sure, she was scared--that much was expected-- but I could see the anger. I could see she was furious with me. Interesting. I thought to myself.

A mistake like this will get a lot of people killed. "I asked you a fucking question, didn't I? I don't like repeating myself."
