Love Somebody by Taylor Maddie (top 10 motivational books txt) 📕

Love, I find that word to be over used. You see couples holding hands and making googly faces at each other on the street and one would call that love when in reality when their doors are closed they get in each others faces for no reason. You see celebrities on magazines adopting children and such but I wouldn't define that as love. I could go on and on about bad examples of love. But how about I start my story before I found my true

love...

I sat in front of my mirror running a brush through my thick dirty blonde hair. My emerald green eyes twinkled in the ceiling lights dull glare and wet pale skin glistened after a cold morning shower. One would call me stuck up for the way I sit upright and pout my full pink lips but I call it professional. It has been one of my dreams to become a model and practicing what models do on a daily basis will help in that department like exercising to keep my slim figure. I was proud of that. Although my height being 5'5" wouldn't get me that far.
I stood and walked towards my closet for my days worth of clothes. Swinging it open I screamed in surprise.
"Jake!" I yelled. "Get out of my room!" My eight year old brother was cuddled up in the far corner of my walk-in closet laughing his head off. He stood and staggered towards me still laughing uncontrollably. It was then I noticed he was wearing one of my bras and heels. Before I could reach out and grab him he darted pass me and down the stairs.
I groaned one last time before quickly pulling on a blue pull-over, skinny jeans, and a pair of converses.I fixed my hair into a messy ponytail and started downstairs.
My parents sat at the kitchen table with Jake and my three month old sister, Leila. Mom was feeding Leila while dad was eyeballing me.
"Morning." I sang as I took an apple from the fruit bowl and plopped next to Jake. I got no reply. "Hello?" I sang again. Their eyes met mines and they nodded their heads.
"So, Madeline. Saturday is Jake's birthday party, remember I asked you and Gino to host it?" Dad says between bites of his banana. I raise an eyebrow not remembering when I volunteered us.
Hmm, us, Well Giovanni aka Gino is my best friend from since the sixth grade. His name is exactly how it sounds. He's Italian and he also looks like it. Although he has lived here in California his entire life. He has silky full jet black hair always slicked with gel, astounding brown eyes, sun kissed skin and a tall muscular yet lean body. He is a every girls dream if I do say so myself.
"Fine dad but remember you promised to boost my allowance in the coming week?" I taunted. I heard him chuckle.
"And remember on your way home to pick up a baby formula." Mom added. I rolled my eyes in annoyance and a hint of boredom. Mom and I aren't always getting along since the baby was born and I have to deal with her orders every second of every day. But hey, I still love

her.
Just then Gino knocked at the door.Letting himself in, he gave Leila a peck on the cheek and my mom a hug. He's such a gentleman. He strutted over towards me.
"Good morning everyone." He announces. Did I mention his voice? Its smooth, husky and very charming. He pulls up a seat next to me and comes in for a hug. Just like his attitude his cologne was spicy. "Ready for school?" He asks brushing his breath across my face. I nod as we stood to leave but before we left I took an extra second to slap sting my bra at Jake. While he was wearing it.

Gino opened his black Chevrolet car door for me before he opened it for himself. I threw my backpack in the backseat and waited for him to come in.
"Remember not to make any plans on Saturday, Gino." I said as he started the car. I lifted my feet onto his dashboard and hung my head from the window.
"Why shouldn't I? I have a date you know?" He replies. I put my palm to my heart and squeeze it to show the pain I was in.
"You're cheating on me?"I gasped. We would always act as if we were going out when in reality we both had our own so called 'love life'. His in partiular more exciting than mines.
"Madi, your too hot to go out with. I need someone less sexy." He smiles his sexy smile causing me to blush from ear to ear. I slapped him on the closest arm near me and pecked at his cheek.
"So sweet, my little Gino." I giggled. "Bring the dang girl to the party. Hey, I might invite some other people for when the little kids get tired. As a matter of fact I need

this party for how boring my life is." I groaned and collapsed back into the seat.
"It wouldn't be boring for long if you don't put on your seat belt." Gino chuckled.

As usual a whole bunch of girls swarmed around the car when Gino and I pulled up. They would practically melt when he smiled. Skanks. I left him to his business and scurried off to find my friends, Trisha and Cookie. They were right where they always were, at the back of the school making out with their boyfriends. I would always be the odd one out just sitting there, waiting for them to almost reach second base.
"Madi, guess what? Richy's parents just bought him a Ferrari." Trisha screeched when I approached. Her arm was slung around Richy's shoulders as he wiped some of her lip gloss from his lips. Cookie on the other hand was in full out make out.
Both girls pretty much look the same except Cookie is a redhead while Trisha is a brunette. Other than that they were both short, extremely skinny, and athletic. Their boyfriends were complete foils on the other hand. Richy was a rich blonde with blue eyes and big muscles while Derrek (Cookie's boyfriend) has black hair and brown eyes and extremely buff.
"Cool, what color?" I asked sitting on the hood of Derrek's black Cadillac. Richy scanned me up and down as did Derrek. They are always checking me out but I don't mind as long as my friends are happy and they don't approach me sexually.
"Cherry Red." Cookie finally says. Impressive five minute long kiss.
"What's cherry red?" Gino questions walking up towards us. He does the weird man hand shake with the boys and kisses the girls on the cheek.
"My Ferrari." Richy states. He looks over at me and winks. I roll my eyes and fold my arms across my chest.
"Awesome, you should let me take it for a spin, Richy Rich." Gino says and sits next to me. We all spoke for a couple more minutes and I invited them to the party before the couples went back to making out leaving Gino and I stuck together. He was sitting so close to me that I felt his warm breath dance across my cheek. I couldn't gather what he was talking about I was just lost in his gaze. I had to with hold my self from kissing his thin pink lips.
Saved by the bell, school was starting.

"Have a seat class, we have much to do." Mr. Sebastian commands. Mr. Sebastian is the youngest teacher at Lincoln High. He has baby blue eyes, pale skin and curly brown hair. He is the definition of a hot

teacher at this school. The rest are boring old men and women.
Sebastian sits at his desk and runs his fingers through his hair and clears his throat. "Hark, through yonder..." He starts. Most of the girls mouthed his words as he spoke so sweet and gentle. I even found myself whisking in his glow until he called me up to read Juliet's part. I noticed that he especially picks on me for some reason but hey he's hot so I don't mind.
Gino automatically sits in my seat and begins to talk to Trisha as I stood to walk in front of the class. All eyes fell on me and my palms suddenly felt sweaty. I rubbed them in my jeans and sat next in the seat he placed directly in front of him. I peered into his eyes. I heard murmurs and giggles throughout the room but I didn't care. It's not everyday your gorgeous teacher is inches away from kissing you.
"Romeo, Romeo where art thou Romeo?" I begin. Laughter filled throughout the class and Sebastian was also smiling. Heat filled my body as I casually flipped my hair and hid my face with my hand. Gino was staring right at me with the most confident and friendly glare. He waved his hand at me reassuringly to continue. I looked back at Sebastian to see his eyes stuck to my thighs. I shifted my legs to divert his gaze. His eyes trailed up my legs, to my breasts and stopped at my lips. I figured that was closer to my eyes than anywhere else. "I don't think I want to do this anymore." I mumbled. I stood to go back to my seat but he held my hand. His hands were soft to the touch.
"Miss Thomas I'd advise you to have a seat. This, if you didn't know is extra credit. And trust me you need it. Based from your last test." He informed. If it was one thing I hate

a bad grade. I plopped back into the seat and pouted.
"Can I at least have a different partner to act with? Say Giovanni? I mean, I feel much more comfortable with him." I state. I knew it would be a long shot but to make it count I smiled my sexiest smile showing my pearly white teeth. Sebastian dropped his head and a slight chuckle rose from him. I was known for my flirting skills.
"I don't mind, Mr. S." Gino shouted from behind. My flirting skills were phenomenal but Gino's commanding skills were nothing but magnificent.
"I don't see why not." Sebastian says standing and ushering for Gino to join me. A wave of relief flew over my body. Not only did I not have to withstand the constant eyeballing from Sebastian but at least Gino would do a better job...I hope.
After our hour long session of acting we were finally allowed to go back to our seats. "A real ass isn't he?" Gino jokes as
