I need that book. It has been my fifth time here in the library- solely for the book. I have been trying to get it- unnoticed since the day it captured my eye. Something about it has been alluring me. Being unlucky enough, it is in the highest shelf under the restriction section. Miss Amy, the librarian, had been watching me from her desk, which was quite a distance away, ever since she caught me sneaking into the section. I snickered at her, walking away in disappointment. I heard a terrific thud right behind me, which no one had seemed to have heard. My eyes widened, as a little smile crept across my mouth, knowing what and where it was from.

Clarity
"I don't need your help Brandon I can see clearly." I said rolling my eyes even though I can't see that well without my glasses. "Fine then. Read that." He said while pointing at the book on top of the shelf. "Uhm... it's.. it's..." I half closed my eyes to see but it was no use. I sighed. I heard Brandon laughing from behind me. He came close and put on the glasses I left yesterday at his house on me. I groaned in annoyance. "Clarity is clear to see." He smirked. "Whatever." I said walking past him.Complete
Bold Love
!Unedited! "Your skirt is awfully short to be appropriate for school." I look down at my legs, hands smoothing out a wrinkle in my skirt. "I don't remember that we have a dress code. And we're not in highschool anymore, this is college." When I return my attention back to her, my breath hitches in my throat. "Pull it down." ----- Y/n has a mission.

A Mates Choice
Book 1: "Allison where did you get that from the dollar store" the queen whore of the school looked at me with so much hate. There was so much adrenaline that was flowing throw me I simply said " actually no your mom gave them to me". " Look b*tch I don't now who you think your dealing with." She said grabbing my collar. " let go of me" I said through clenched teeth. "Yeah or what " she said back making her grip tighter. Making my eyes shift from there usual hazel brown to black as night put my hands on her wrist burning her, with that I shoved her into the other wall with one hand making her crack the wall. ( oh I sure hope the wall is okay) : note my sarcasm: Looking around I saw people's eyes wide and mouths gape open. " hey...ummm I think you should close you mouth before you catch flies or something" I said sarcastically almost jogging out the school. As soon as I stepped foot out the school doors my trouble some life didn't end there I caught sight of the person I hated with a passion. Before that person could say anything I took off towards the woods. Not to be reminded that the woods here were a dangerous place to be at night. And night was falling unusually fast.Complete
Between The Lines
I took my usual seat in the back corner, far away from the line of fire that always seemed to follow Mr. Montgomery's gaze. I tried to disappear into the safety of my textbook, but his piercing blue eyes seemed to find me anyway, as if daring me to challenge him once more. "Ah, Miss Taylor, how lovely of you to grace us with your presence," Mr. Montgomery quipped, his tone dripping with sarcasm as he glanced up from his papers. "I trust you've come prepared to dazzle us with your unparalleled enthusiasm for Shakespeare?" I resisted the urge to roll my eyes, opting instead for a tight-lipped smile that did little to disguise my annoyance. "Of course, Mr. Montgomery," I replied, my voice dripping with equal parts sarcasm and defiance. "I live for the thrill of dissecting centuries-old plays written in a language I can barely understand." Mr. Montgomery's lips twitched in amusement, a hint of a smirk playing at the corners of his mouth. "Ah, a true lover of literature, I see," he remarked, his tone teasing. "Well, let's see if we can't expand your horizons a bit today, shall we?"Complete
The New Girl.
I glanced at my watch, fifteen minutes. I ran towards the closest train station. So many stairs. I jog down and right when I turn to dash in the actual train station floor, I run into a hard, warm surface. My bag falls down and I was just about to tell off whoever did this...until I met two dark, forest green eyes piercing me through tuffs of sandy brown hair. Class could wait a little longer...Complete
How The Bad Boy Found True Love.
I watched him watch me as he was about to press his fist into the big red button that read "Emergency Fire!". I was unable to form words because, I thought about how hot he looked as he stared back at me with such intensity. It just intrigued me. I finally snapped out of my trance, but not because I'd came to my senses, but because I felt a cold sensation running down my body. I blinked about three times before it finally registered that he'd pressed the button and now water was spilling from the roof, and some students were laughing and playing. My breath hitched in my throat as he came closer. "You really should've worn a more, I don't know, a thicker shirt or bra. Because your two lovely friends are standing at attention." as the words left his mouth, realization caught up to me and I flushed with embarrassment and quickly crossed my arms over my chest. Talk about scarred for life! Jerk. Meet Charm Mill, your typical nerdface. She's the smartest girl in school, straight A's, great punctuality.. eveything in the book. She's also the invisible girl. No one notices her. But, for her, that's a great thing. She feels that going unnoticed means less drama, which is correct. But, what happens when Heath Cullen gets himself in trouble because he's not performing the way he should and the principal forces Charm to tutor him? Will this be a ticket to hell or a ticket for the bad boy to find his true love? Copyrighted. ©Complete
It's complicated
And In a second he grabs me by the waist and pins me to the wall, "whatever you're thinking Miss Ellis, can never happen again." I smirked biting my lips, "How do you know what I am thinking?" I whispered, he leaned closer and was inches away from my lips. "Because I'm thinking it too."Complete
Unwritten Rules
In the midst of unwritten rules and unspoken emotions How do you fight for a love that's forbidden? Subin knows she shouldn't fall, but how do you unlove someone who keeps pulling you closer-only to push you away? Bound by rules, secrets, and a tangled web of emotions, she finds herself caught between what's right and what feels real. But when betrayal cuts deep and lines are crossed, can they still find a way back to each other-or are they destined to keep breaking each other apart? _ "Class dismissed," she said curtly, already organizing her things. I was just about to pack my stuff when I heard her voice again. "Chung Subin." I froze mid-motion, my hand hovering over my bag. Why is she calling me now? The entire class went quiet, their eyes bouncing between me and Ms. Lee. "Yes, ma'am?" I answered, standing up hesitantly. "Follow me," she said, her tone leaving no room for argument. She didn't even look at me as she slung her bag over her shoulder. "And carry this," she added, motioning to a stack of papers and a book she had left on her desk. I glanced at Woo-ri, who was giving me the most bewildered look. "Go," she mouthed silently, clearly curious but also worried. I walked over to Ms. Lee's desk, quickly grabbing her things. Turning to Woo-ri, I gave her a small wave. "I'll catch up with you later, Woo-ri," I said softly. "Go ahead without me." "You sure? Don't let her eat you alive!" she whispered dramatically, but I waved her off with a nervous smile. _ A professor and her student, drawn to each other in ways neither of them can explain. The boundaries are clear, but their emotions refuse to be ignored.
