"Hey." It all started with that three lettered word in a mysterious text from an unknown Californian number―hey. Alex Turner is your average seventeen―almost eighteen―year old girl. She's been through the normal teenage girl drama, like every other girl her age. She never thought she would be the same after her ex shattered her heart, but she finds herself being stronger than she imagined, and pulled through what the world had to throw at her. Though she thought fate hated her, Alex was surprised when she received that three lettered text one day, along with the drama that came with it. What she didn't know, is that that simple greeting would open so many new doors. Jake Carter was the guy for her, and fate decided that when he first sent her that text message. * * * This used to say "Based On A True Story," but I took it down because I'm sick of explaining that only the idea how Jake and Alex meet is true. Some other stuff might be true, but that's mainly it. :) And it didn't happen to me, but my friend :P © 2013, all rights reserved.

"I hate you! Why don't you just pack your bags and leave? I don't want you here! I've never wanted you here!" I yelled, pounding my fists on his chest, my voice rising with every word. I was on the verge of tears. My heart was beating too fast to be healthy at our proximity, and we were both gasping for air after our yelling match. I tried to pull my hands away from him, but his tight, secure grip on my wrists was too strong. It bothered me to an extreme length that even when I was pissed off at him, he still managed to make a tingly and electrifying sensation ignite where his hands were. His dark, disheveled hair slightly moved in the night's chilly wind. He looked hurt, but at the moment I didn't care. His jaw was clenched, his eyes were penetrating me, and his voice was low and raspy as he said, "We both know that's a lie, and if I did, you would miss me too much." And I hated how true he was. * * * Adrienne Clark. She didn't expect a lot of things. Especially: 1. Her father getting into a relationship after her mother's death. 2. A step mom. 3. Luke and Charlotte Pierce as her new housemates. Or uninvited guests that were staying with her, as she would prefer. These three things changed her, in more ways than she could have anticipated, more than she could have thought. But out of all of them, Luke was the one that changed her the most. With his arrogant and cocky demeanor, he was the last person she would have expected to have the ability to make her heartbeat spike with just one glance. And it living with the him didn't help one bit. Hate, Love, Hormones, and Heartbreak. They're all a pain. {sporadically harsh language & slow updates} © 2013, all rights reserved.

Things could be a lot different from what they actually were. Like the picture of the family in her hands. They looked happy, but that was before it all happened. ~ Sophia Williams's life changed completely when she was brave enough to turn her father into the police. She was taken in to an adoption center, and a year later at the age of seventeen, was adopted. She used to be broken. She used to be shielded by the walls she put up to protect herself. But all that went away when he came into her life and changed her life more than she could ever expect.…
