We've all been in that situation of the impossible chase after a person who we just can't catch. Basically, like chasing smoke. 

Chase Harding knows that situation far too well. He always thought he would never be the kind of guy to follow behind girls like a lost puppy. That is, of course, until freshman year he fell in love with his best friend.

 Camila Smoke always thought of Chase Harding as nothing more than the best friend in the world. She always questioned why he was always so prepared to be by her side when no one else was, but she didn't mind it at all. 

The two best friends expected their senior year to be chill and unexciting, but what they didn't see coming were the mixed up feelings slowly being revealed.

Better Off by cammie_grace

"I know that I can fuck up your whole life with one look. But I can't stop myself." ✰ ✰ ✰ Mia Rose McHenry tries her best to live her life under the radar, never having been one to enjoy the spotlight. For the most part, it's worked. All Mia wants is to make it through her senior year the same way she has all her life: by playing invisible. Enter Thorne Baxter, the town's infamous "bad" boy. With a killer smirk and a single wink, he manages to flip Mia's entire world upside down. And she doesn't entirely hate that. The unlikely duo couldn't be more different if they tried, yet that doesn't seem to stop the universe from pushing them together. What happens when the two's worlds collide, suddenly putting everything they thought they knew to the test? Will they manage to make things work, or were they simply better off before? [COMPLETE]

Violet's Delight by lyazar

"Well then. That's the first time a girl has ever rejected my close proximity," he said, eyes ablaze with a playful fire. "You better get used to it," I retorted as I spun on my heel and headed for the school doors that led to the outside. "I've never met anyone like you before," he called after me, this time, not coming after me. "I know, Romeo. I'm a special little snowflake," I called back, not turning around. "You got the 'little' part right there, Princess!" he shouted after me. I threw up my middle finger back to him and heard him laugh as I exited out the doors rather dramatically. ... I'm tired of all those high school stories about a straight-A girl student with the perfect life who falls for the stereotypical Mr. Bad Boy who wears leather black jackets and only has a soft spot for her. That's not how the real world works, sweetheart. I may look like a damsel, but I'm never in distress. ... Not me making fun of the "she's not like every other girl" trope <3 o.o :)) I like to think I'm funny. After all: #3 in amusement 10/22/22 #1 in banter 10/31/22 #3 in friendship 11/7/22

The Preston Playboys by CammiKenny

I think that sometimes the universe likes to play sick jokes on people. Like sometimes you drop the ice cream you've been craving on the floor before you're able to get a bite or you crack the screen of your brand new cell phone. Or sometimes you get the first detention of your life on the same day your middle school bully comes back from a delinquent school and get locked in the library with him and his brothers (who you haven't talked to since the 8th grade.) Yep. The universe just loved playing sick jokes on Thea Caruso. ~~~ Thea Caruso had spent her entire childhood with her 2 best friends Kevin & Devin Preston but like every young friendship it slowly got to the point where they wouldn't even acknowledge each other in school. She didn't hold anything against them. It's just how things go. Strangers to Friends to Best Friends to Strangers. There is one Preston that she does have ill feelings for. Marc Preston. The troublesome younger triplet that had always made Thea's life a living hell and he's back and ready to start his reign of terror. There's only one problem... Thea Caruso isn't the same girl he picked on in 8th grade. She isn't scared to bite back now. { Book 4 of The Preston Series }
