Profile: Ash Cartwright 
(Self evaluation.)
College student with a steady job as barista at the Busy Bean. Isolated but that's due to her lack of want to create any lasting relationships. 

Does this come from her broken past? 

Yes it does and she's fully aware of this. 

Profile: Zach, last name still unknown.
(Evaluation by Ash.)
A seemingly average student, who fits in with everyone but doesn't connect with anyone. Able to appear without making a stir and leave the same way. Average in looks and height. 

There is nothing about him that should merit Ash's attention. 

Questions for consideration: 
If he is so average, why does Ash find him interesting?

Why can't she make sense of him? 

Most importantly, why did she ever decide to get involved?

The Duet Of Deceit by hannahcmary

If you asked anyone who Gwyneth Barrett is, they'd have a lot of things to say about her. Her classmates at her preppy high school would tell you that she's a perfect role model, but her friends in Brooklyn would call her haunted. If one described Ezekiel Branson they'd call him a quiet and observant child of a multimillionaire family- who was blessed with devilishly good looks and a fine taste for fashion. Their school peers only see one side to each of them, never knowing the truth behind the masks. Being the children of two wealthy families comes with many secrets. Wealth isn't as glamorous as one would hope. The two have hardly crossed paths, until their father's decide to make a business deal, throwing their eighteen year old children's lives onto the same track. Neither Ezekiel or Gwyneth are who they seem. Nothing would be the same after they meet and secrets are revealed, and lives are destroyed on the Upper East Side of New York. They are the perfect Duet Of Deceit. ________________ TDOD will contain sensitive subjects and materials. Refer to the introductory for the list of warnings. R18+ Due to the nature variants of plot.

In school they teach you to say 'no' in dangerous situations, or when you are denying consent. Saying no has never been an option for Gwyneth. That's a luxury that she doesn't get, no matter the cost of her own sanity and wellbeing. What her father wills, goes. The monster creates those big and scary words.

Strangers. (DNF College AU) by GirlinRed29

Clay was a quiet college student. His friend group consisted of loud, outgoing people, meaning he usually felt left out or ignored. Clay either spends his time with his best friend Sapnap, working, or doing school work. His life was plain. It was boring. He was looking for any kind of change. George, on the other hand, wasn't quiet or shy at all. In fact, he was very popular on campus. He was outgoing and enjoyed talking to people. George is hiding a secret, though. Little do the people around him know, he's a famous adult video star. He streams these videos and receives a large amount of money from viewers. Little does George know that the seemingly innocent coffee shop boy isn't as innocent as he seems. (If any kind of sexual reading makes you uncomfortable, this is definitely not the book for you.) #4 in DNF #2 in DNF Started: January 11, 2024 Ended: January 31st, 2024 TW: Smut (obv) SA Drugs Alcohol Verbal/physical abuse Bad eating habits Self harm Homophobia R@pe Suicide mentions/thoughts

Because as I lay there in Steve's arms thinking about Brad, this became a very real choice...and the choice slowly become a decision. No matter how I looked at the situation, I wasn't shaking these new feelings. I had chosen Brad without meaning to, and laying with Steve suddenly felt wrong. Very, very, wrong.

The Spill Over by FreakOut25x

(PREVIOUSLY KNOWN AS TUGGIN' & PULLIN' ON MY LITTLE HEART STRINGS) #48 in Teen Fiction as of 2.6.2016. Meet Ashley, the latest transfer student to Oakridge. She's shy, sarcastic and fun loving but only once you get to know her. Enter Zac, the insanely popular guy who detested new people. They don't exactly get off to the best possible start. In fact, it's quite the opposite- their first conversation ever happened because Ashley spilled coffee over Zac's 'lucky' sweatshirt right before an important match. After exchanging a lot of sarcastic comments over time and conversing only when they felt the need of passing snide taunts on to each other, will they actually discover that the other person is not half as bad as they imagine them to be? Can the battle of wits that started out over spilled coffee turn out to be something completely different from what everybody imagined it would be? © 2012 by FreakOut25x. All rights reserved.

Finally Free by lulustoriesss

"I need you to be the put together one because I'm so fucked up. You've saved me." He whispers. "Carter, we saved each other." I mutter looking at him through my eyelashes. I lean into him, our lips not even an inch apart. "Sophia we shouldn't..." He looks hesitant. "Please, I need you." I almost started crying. "Please." I mutter one more time, my eyes begging for him. My body needing him. Sophia Carrington. She just moved from New York to California in search of a new life. When her life took a dark turn she's forced to leave everything behind. She just wants to finish her final year of high school, numb to the world, while learning to cope with the trauma she's endured. Carter Marquez. Newly single after being dumped by his girlfriend of two years. After losing his dad in a car accident he's fallen apart. The list of people he trusts is short, he hates letting people in. He's constantly trying to make up for his mistakes of the past, trying to find a new purpose in life. When the two of them collided, they instantly took a mutual disliking to each other. Misunderstandings and a dash of alcohol set a flame between them. Sophia hates the snarky remarks and stupid nicknames that leave his mouth. Carter thinks Sophia is just another trust fund brat. Soon their rivalry begins to dissolve and they learn that sharing the pain of their past can form connections they never thought to be possible.
