badbreakup coming-of-age fighting football highschool hitlist lgbt onc2020 opennovellacontest2020 therapy volleyball

My name is Roxanne Rawlins and this is the sadly true story of my senior year at Sterling Acadamy. 

So while I don't normally go in for all that bullshit teen chick wisdom like My So-Called Life. But there's one thing that the main character Angela Chase said that has always resonated with me. "Hatred can become like my food...it gives you this weird energy. That you can like, live off of?"

So by the time my senior year rolled around, I pretty much lived for my hate. My hate is sacred to me ...it completes me. And trust me when I say, I have my reasons. Sure as shit they might not be great reasons? But they are mine, and I kind of like them. 

They say that hell has no wrath like a woman once scorned? Yeah, well they haven't seen what kind of rage I can bring to the bonfire party. Because this year I am gone burn so bright, I will set the world on fire. 

So we had sex, love, lies, violence, and volleyball ...but not necessarily in that order.All Rights Reserved

Playing A Dangerous Game by DialngCreatvty

"That's not something you mess around with." I say to her and she just rolled her eyes. "It's not like he's going to fall for it anyway." She looked at her baby pink nails. "Then why do you-" "Because," She snapped looking away from her nails to me. "He needs to know how it feels to fall in love and then have your heart ripped out of your chest and just feel like you're dying inside." She clenched her fingers into a fist. "Plus you don't believe in love anyway so it should be a piece of cake to keep your end unattached." "Yeah whatever." Monica Roth wasn't exactly the new girl but she wasn't exactly popular either. Her best friend Destiny Hamilton was a cheerleader but wasn't exactly in on the it crowd. They both seemed to keep to each other until one day the head cheerleader Madison Valentine comes up to Monica asking her a favor. A favor to play a game with the school's newest hottie. Derek Reid. Derek used to believe in love, it's what he lived and breathe for. Until he watched his mother become a slut because of it. The one thing he thought was so beautiful and the cure all to mans problems no longer exist. He became cold and heartless to anyone who didn't deem themselves worthy in his eyes. He played games with girls hearts, cause them to fall in love and literally break their hearts when he doesn't return the affection. He's just that type of guy. What makes Monica stand out from anyone else was the fact she's never been in love. She didn't believe in it, her parents never fell in love. She lives with her mom during the week and her father every now and then. It just something she's never witnessed so she didn't believe in it, to her it was just a myth. So when she gets asked to play the game of love with Derek she literally can't say no.

Ajax (Book 1 of the Reincarnation Series) by Darkkwolff3000

I held onto my gun until all the blood in my hand had gone back into my arm. My knuckles were as white as snow, and I watched as the person whom I used to hate was getting brutally beaten to death and I couldn't do anything about it because that was the plan. It's funny how feelings change over time. I tried to stay calm, I had to for the sake of all those poor girls, but they let out a blood-curdling scream and that was my last straw. I wasn't going to let anything happen to the person I had slowly fallen in love with... I can't... cause if I do, I'm no better than my mother.

My heart skipped a beat as she leaned in towering me, allowing her warm minty breath to fan my face, and her cinnamon cologne to wrap my senses. I physically had to stop myself from taking a step back. "I'm just starting. I'll only stop when I make you cum moaning my name" she said seductively in a husky voice, sending shivers down my spine.
