What great love story doesn't start with two people that absolutely hate each other?



Meet Elijah Quinn. Quiet, composed, and mostly just keeps to himself - your definition of a typical high school nerd. He comes from a financially well-endowed family, to say the least. Always the top achiever in class, he keeps interactions with others to a bare minimum, if not at all, and is completely oblivious to the fact that many girls lust after him.

Now meet Lucas Kim. Your typical high school playboy. He is well aware of the long line of people waiting to get a turn with him and wears that fact with pride. He is usually seen with a group of loud and rowdy boys who walk around like they own the place. He is known to have slept with pretty much all the girls in school.

Two very stereotypical-sounding people in a very stereotypical school setting.

Or so you would think.

Opposites Attract, they said

My brain seemed to go blank as soon as I registered the tender warmth against my lips, the gentle breaths brushing my skin, the fluttering in my chest. It was like we both froze in time for a moment, quite literally, because neither of us moved for a few seconds, the air around us as still as it was electrifying. 


And as quickly as I leaned in, I pulled back, flustered and embarrassed. 


I took in the stunned look on Robin's face, his mouth hanging open as he blinked at me in disbelief. Immediately, I felt the urge to apologise, quickly stepping away from him if only so I could breathe properly again. 


"I-I'm sorry," I stammered, "I don't know what came over me..."
