I know I'm not beautiful and I'm okay with that. I'm not some princess frolicking in the woods waiting for some Prince Charming to save me. I am perfectly capable of saving myself. I'm just fucking tired of trying to. 

-------

Amaya is the farthest thing from a normal high school girl. A fat, emo nerd that is the only girl on the football and wrestling teams. Between her peers, family, and her own thoughts, she can never forget how wrong everything about her is. If nobody can love her, how is she supposed to love herself?

When both Amaya's soft spoken best friend and charismatic neighbor confess feelings for her on the same day, everything changes. 

Amaya's life gets flipped upside down and she needs to decide who her real friends are, whose opinions matter, and how to love herself just the way she is. And the people to help her come from the most unexpected places.

CRINGE WARNING! First book I ever wrote on here!! -- "Sometimes the person who you are willing to take a bullet for is the person behind the gun." I stood peering over the cold lifeless body that lay before my eyes. I had always thought of death the enemy, but right now, I blessed it upon the person who is now at peace. Sometimes you don't need to be the smartest, or the fastest, but you do need to be wisest. They say the blood runs deeper than water, and I believe it, because even though the people that we love can turn on us and begin to hate us, they are only human, meaning that soon they will begin to see how short life really is and how it is not to be wasted. People who seem perfect and they look like they have no floors'; they are the people who are suffering, like I was. But I found my savior in the most uncommon place. He was able to look through my mask, he saw the cracks, and tried to fix the broken girl that hid away deep inside the girl who only wanted to be seen as 'fine'. I slowly began to find comfort and safety in him, and I did the same to him. We were two broken people becoming whole. Someone once said when you pass, if you can count your true friends on one hand you are beyond lucky, and I even though I did not like the person that lay before me, I know that he once had true friends, including me. I'm a 17 year old girl who has suffered more than any other, beginning to believe that 'Hope' was just another word the people throw around. Until I fell in love with a badboy.

"You already have." Micah bites out. "And I'm pretty fucking sure you liked it too, if your orgasms were anything to go by." - "I want-" Micah stopped, running his fingers through his hair. "Never mind what I want. What do you want?" His voice is quieter now, more gentle. "You."

{The Sequel to: The New Boy} "Don't get his momma involved." I hear you but seriously, your hand giving me goosebumps and making my pulse rate escalate so will you take it off my face before my joints weaken? • "I'm not letting you go until you tell me." Trust me, I'd like that. But I shouldn't like it. He waited and waited until I gave in. I blamed his eyes, there was something about them that got me to do anything he wanted. It's like they hypnotized me. It scared me because it was both a good and a bad thing, it could drive me to my greatest doom and a pot of gold at the same time. He could tell me to jump into a pit of fire and just stare at me with those eyes and I would jump. Either way, no fire would burn as much as the fire he created in me. I was like the marshmallow and he was the fire that heated it. It would hurt in the process but the outcome would be worth it. • The love triangle drama between Kylie, Elle and Henry continues to unfold in this sequel. Can Elle keep up with hiding her feelings? Can Kylie read between the lines? Does Henry end up falling for Kylie? All your answers will be answered in this sequel. Enjoy! --- written and completed: 2020
