Kate Lee, 20 years old, a nursing major at Northern Georgia University, has been dating Cameron Davis, also 20 for a few years now, 4 to be exact. The two have been off and on since high school in Jefferson, GA. When Kate comes home for summer break, they fight constantly and one night, Cameron takes it too far at a packed bar. Kate leaves without thinking anyone had seen their dispute. But, she was wrong. One man did. Enter Brantley Gilbert, just released from prison after 5 years for assault and battery with bodily injury. He was out at the bar with his friends, celebrating said release from prison. He'd noticed Kate the moment she'd walked in, but once he saw she was with someone, he didn't press the issue. 

"I don't know why you wore that tonight, here of all places. You look like you're working a street corner, Kate." Cameron said, motioning to her outfit. She had on a black corset top, black leather pants, and red stilettos to complete the look. Her hair was curled and down her back. Kate sighed and brushed off his comment, she just wanted one night without being told how much she dressed like a slut. Brantley had caught Kate's eye when she scanned the bar, just in case she'd needed help later getting Cameron into the truck. But when she glanced again, Cameron noticed the looks between the two of them and struck her cheek.

[COMPLETE] Sorry this may be cringe, it was written very long ago A seemingly ordinary, working college girl meets a cool, undeniably sexy boy with millions of followers at his feet. How will their completely different lives allow, or prevent them from getting what they want? Expect some drama, flirty lines, steamy scenes, funny best friends, and perhaps, an overall epic love connection. ~ Carter came around the corner as his eyes darkened with a predatory gaze. Oh no. He took a step forward, minimalizing the distance with every dominating stride, as I froze in my spot. My breath hitched as his arms finally encircled my waist and his eyes locked with mine. In one swift motion, he flipped my body so my back was pressed against his chest and hands gripped the curve of my hips. "What game are you trying to play at Valerie?" he spoke in a husky voice. Goosebumps danced along my skin as his hot breath fanned against the shell of my ear and his fingertips lit a trail of blazing heat along the length of my arm. Mentally shaking myself from the trance of that which is Carter Bryson, I tilted my head towards him and whispered; "One where you'll lose." Quickly escaping his hold on me before the tension became unbearable, I spun on my heel to face him and slowly backed away towards the exit. "Good luck though." I added mischievously. With a smirk and a devilish glint in his eyes that could even give hell a run for its money, he replied; "I'm not a player though, baby. I'm the gamemaker." ~ ❗️Mature content.

His faint laugh stopped me in my tracks, my body turning sightly to look at him again. "That was cute. Really, I loved it, but you know I can't just stay away." He said while using air quotations for the last part of his sentence. My narrowed eyes continued to shoot daggers at him, "and why is that, Grayson? Huh?" I asked in a mocking tone. He rubbed along his jaw while pulling in on his bottom lip, his head lightly shaking from side to side. "What?" I said louder, my patience long gone. "I live right next door," he deadpanned, "I'm not going anywhere. As far as I'm concerned we're gonna be seeing each other practically every day, so this whole thing about staying away just isn't going to work for you. I don't let things I love go so easily." A chill went down my spine as I watched him walk up the stairs of his porch, "sweet dreams, Cam." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Eighteen year old, Cameron Woods, is ready to start her senior year alongside her friends and boyfriend, Damon Valero.
