Falling For Him
Meet Elle, your typical teenaged girl. But there's one flaw-she attends a wealthy private school which immediately gives her a reputation without her trying. Lucky for her? Guess again. Elle's entire life is full of drama 24/7. But she's always loaded with more drama than homework. Elle learns how to coup with the drama and is finally satisfied with her methods. However, all her hard work to avoid drama falls apart when she runs into a drop-dead gorgeous guy walking through the high school on the first day. As much as she tries to ignore the new guy, she gets paired with him in a history project. She can't stand his ego and his overly confident self. But will Elle see right through his bad boy act or will she just end up falling for him?"My name is-" in my head I'm going: Not Steuart, not Steuart, not Steuart- "Liam.""Thank gosh," I mutter too loudly that Liam stops talking."Is something wrong?" he asks."Uh, um. No, sorry. Please, continue," I say."I'm Liam. I play basketball, I only read sports magazines unless it's for school, and I'm already enjoying this school," he explains smugly. Liam sits back down, his chair still very close to mine. I can't help but notice his attractive scent."Thank you, Liam," Mrs. N says. She introduces us to the project that Adrianna mentioned earlier this morning. "I will assign your partner." As Mrs. N explains the requirements for the project, I see Liam lean towards me from my peripheral vision."How ya doin'?" Liam whispers into my ear, the warmth of his breath lingering. "You've been all I can think about. You're just so-""Mister Mercer, since you and Miss Arlton seem to enjoy each other's company, why don't I make you two partners?" Mrs. N suggests."Oh, uh. Mrs. N, I don't-" I start to protest."That'd be great!" Liam exclaims. "Thank you!" Mrs. N calls out the next group and Liam wraps an arm around my shoulders, moving his body even closer to mine."This'll be great, yuh know? I get to learn all about you!" Liam says.…
