2+ idk i dnfed
i think these kind of rh are just not my jam. i want the funny, angsty, hot and fun ones and this aint it. its set in highschool. 4 guys and one ‘badasss’ unapproachable girl. there werent any bullying so thats new, but i just couldnt connect w/ the heroine & none of the Hs r that interesting
kade = the momma of the group. always tryna help & take care of the ppl around him
’She’s infuriating. Her rejection stings just as badly as before. Why do I even care? I get myself into these messes. Always trying to save people’s asses when they don’t need or want it. She does though, that’s the most infuriating thing. God, she needs it. That girl is crying out to be helped and ever the bleeding heart, I can’t help but listen.
One of these days, I’m going to be fucked over for the last time.’
eli = emo, silent. labeled as the ‘freak’ by society
phoenix = playful but is ‘dark & twisted’ inside
hudson = the push everyone away coz i have issues one. guy version of brooklyn, has past w her, and the one in the group (bcs lets be honest theres always one) who has a clingy mean girl as a ‘gf’ or fuckbuddy
also, their relationships that were considered as slow burn felt too quick for me (development, their fast as hell ‘progress’ from strangers to ‘family’??)
’Her head drops to the pillow, eyes sinking shut. She snuggles closer, almost like she’s comforted by the skeletons in my closet that I’ve just revealed. When I was playing the good guy, she stubbornly pushed me away. But now I’ve owned my mistakes and shared my darkness with her? She’s cuddling up like a goddamn puppy, bathing in the grief.
This girl isn’t right. Not one bit.
I couldn’t save Amy. I’ll spend the rest of my life making up for that, saving all the other hopeless victims in her place. No matter how much it kills me inside every day. Hudson. Phoenix. Eli. And now? Brooklyn, too.
We’re family.
No one goes down on my watch.’
overall not bad written but nah not for me
