"Dear Corinne,  do you ever feel beautiful? Cuz you are. Stunning. I wish I could be stunning. Love, Leigh"  Leigh is a full out eat-alone, grade eleven loser. She has one friend who has to divide her time between dozens of people. And Leigh feels anything but beautiful. But when her math teacher starts keeping her after class and pushing her past her limits, and a boy shows up to sit with her during lunch (and her lack of eating finally catches up with her), she doesn't know where to turn.   So she spends her time writing hypothetical letters to the only person who has ever made her feel like she could be someone someday: her grade nine English teacher.All Rights Reserved

Thankfully graduations coming up and I'm almost done, but that's gona be a task when I'm failing the 'hated by all' Algebra I'm not the smartest of the bunch but I do well. It's not that I can't pass but the teacher teaching it; Mrs. Hastings, she's a real slug, she makes everything boring. I used to beg and plead for her to transfer from West Point High and then one day, (September the 10th to be exact) my wish actually came true and that was when EVERYTHING changed.

Notes by sayeitagain

Solene likes to write stories. She writes stories that she knows will never happen to her. Stories that somehow give her comfort knowing that at least it happened somewhere... Not exactly in real life, right? But being the fantasizing weirdo as she is, she decides to imagine herself as a character from Letters to Juliet and writes a small note, then places it inside a book. It was a crazy for her to do so, but somehow she felt like someone actually was going to read it and act like her genie and grant her all the things that she wrote. ha. haha. hahaha. As if that's gonna happen anytime soon. {To the Hopeless romantics who look for love in books} {To my british friend---Happy birthday!} Please do comment (I'll take on the criticisms)

2:29 AM by RoseAndBone

"Okay, you know what? You're such a jackass and I never should have kissed you," I say. Colton stands up. His green eyes are just as angry as mine are. "Then why did you?" he asks. "I don't know!" I yell. "Why did you kiss me back?" "Hey, you kissed me," Colton says. "We already established that! God! It's like talking to a wall. Whatever I say just fucking bounces right off of you!" I yell. "Do you have any idea how maddening you are?" Colton looks at me. "You don't think you're infuriating?" Colton asks. I narrow my eyes. He starts to walk towards the door. I grab the M&M's and chuck them at Colton. He whips around, his eyes blazing green. "Where the fuck are you going? We're talking!" I yell, crossing my arms. He rubs the back of his neck where the M&M's hit him. "You wanna talk? Fine. Let's talk," Colton says. "You're obviously messed up from all of the shit your mom did." "Maybe I am! It's not your fucking business!" I pause. "Why do you even care? You're just some manwhore, right? A fuckboy?" Colton laughs dryly. "Is that what you think I am?" he asks. He takes a step closer to me. I'm two seconds away from kissing him again. Andy Reed-Collins has never fit in. With both of her parents being doctors, she's grown up in the hospital and has more friends there than she does at her high school. She's made it through most of her Senior year when she meets Colton Samson. Colton's bad for for her in every way. He's a nortorious manwhore who uses girls. But, when they become Biology partners, everything changes for Andy. As she spends more time with Colton, she can't deny their growing attraction to each other.

fragile by CrossAndQuill

"It's too complicated. I'm just too...fragile. I can't be with you." "Fragile, my ass. You just don't want to take the chance of letting someone in that actually cares about you." Colton paused. "I love you, isn't that enough?" Mira and Colton never knew each other well in high school. They were two different people who were misunderstood dealing with different problems. Years later, when they meet again, Mira is broken and believes love can never be enough to save someone as fragile as her. Colton is broken too and is determined to change that.
