We're all familiar with the phrase: Nobody is Perfect. This phrase would fit Quinn Connor well, if Quinn was a nobody. The only difference was that she was indeed a somebody who was indeed perfect. At least the students in Cape Coral High believed so. Who could blame them? A captain of the female soccer team and the student body president who could still maintain good grades? Guys would want her and girls would want to be her. But alas, Quinn's life was not as perfect as everyone thinks. Even the prettiest eyes keep the darkest secrets. For 18 years, Quinn was able to hide away all that was dark in her life. That all changed when she celebrated her 18th birthday, where her life began to slowly tear apart. Her mother who she loved met a tragic fate. Her relationship with her dearest friends were on the verge of breaking. Just as things were already bad, she realised that she has being watched. Would she be able to protect her loved ones? Would she be able to gain back her life which took her years to earn?

COMPLETED✅ Two high school teenagers finding themselves, analyzing this ever changing world, and building love. This is the type of love you wish you found in high school but probably know way too well that it only exists as fiction. Today I'm turning my fiction to reality. ❣️•••❣️ Excerpt: Just as I was about to seek shelter under some building's roof, the tires of a car come to a halt, I wonder who might pity the lonely girl walking in the rain. The passenger window rolls down, and I spot the most unexpected person seated behind the wheel. "Get in" comes out his voice, and I must've stood there agape for a few moments because next comes his rhetorical question. "Are you getting in or continuing walking in the rain?" Eyebrows raised expectantly. He sounds annoyed, like he regrets his decision to ever stop and help me. ❣️•••❣️ #5 in cynical #2 in loveandfriendship #1 in opinionated #4 in ihatelife #10 in nerdgirl #10 in HighschoolRomance #26 in GoodGirlBadBoy *contains mature themes. *contains cursing.Complete
Everything She Is ✔️
I laugh as I walk down to the shore, holding the heels of my shoes as I walk far enough for the cool water to rush around my ankles. It's funny how life works out. I never pictured myself to be the girl outside the party, thinking about my life choices while I am half drunk but I guess kissing the school's bad boy does that to you. I wonder where I would be if I never met Cleo. If I never became her friend. Would I still have no friends? Would still be playing soccer? Would I have rebelled? I probably would still be drunk right now, I think to myself, and laugh bitterly, but get rudely interrupted. "Put your hands up, you are under arrest." I hear, spinning around and almost falling into the lake, but I save myself and there I see the flashing lights of the police, and a nice one holding cuffs, looking straight at me. Well this isn't good. ~*~ Quinn and Cleo are the best of friends. They do everything together, from sports to parties, to having a weekly girls night only for the two of them. They rule the school, but like any friendship, one is always has more power than the other, and that being Cleo. She made Quinn the girl she is today, because without her Quinn would be the bad girl that her attitude and personality was leading her to be. Cleo saved Quinn from herself. But after one fateful party Quinn learns that friendship always has an end game, and the one between her and Cleo is not yet over.Complete
