Loving Your Imperfections Family Drama
NateI followed Jordan to his car, pulling him by his arm right before he pressed the button on his remote to unlock it. "Jordan, wait. Come on man. What's going on with you? You've been ignoring everyone's phone calls since the day we had dinner with our families. What's going on?" I ask, making him turn irritated. "Nate, I mean it. Just drop it okay?" he says, holding his hand out."You really don't want to talk about it, fine. I'm not going to pressure you, man. But- we have a big game coming up, and you know it. You miss a single practice and the coach will not let you play. You know that." I say, trying my best to keep him from leaving."I don't care! Alright?" he says, holding his hands out, making me worried."See? There you go! Something is wrong... something big, and you don't want to tell me. I thought we were best friends man. I guess I was wrong!" I say, sounding a bit hurt. Truth is, I was just concerned. He's not the kind to bottle things up. Jordan is like an open boo
Loving Your Imperfections Liam’s Entitlement
MiaI sat at my desk for the next class and waited for the bell to ring. To make time more enjoyable, I decided to take out the book I was currently reading and read where I had left off. "Hey, beautiful." I hear Nate say as he leans down behind me, kissing my cheek. "Hi," I said, blushingly as I looked up at him. "How is Jordan doing? Is he ok? Did you get to talk to him?" "He's fine. He just... you know, his parents had a little argument after the dinner Friday night. He's just, a little uh," "It's fine. I get it, don't worry." I say, looking at him with a smile. "OK, class. Please take out your books, and open them to chapter fifteen," the teacher announced, making Nate take a seat next to me as the class began. The whole class and for the rest of the day if I could be honest, Nate acted a little weird. He stared at me to the point the teacher asked him to stay focused. I mean, he stared at me all the time, smiling at me with those big puppy greens, but, it was odd today. It wa
Loving Your Imperfections First Day On The Job
MiaI cleared my throat, feeling completely baffled by Asher's words. "He's such a weirdo. A hot weirdo, but a weirdo, nonetheless. Isn't he?" Kaitlyn says, making me jump in place as she stands behind me."What the heck, Kate! You scared the hibbies-jibbies out of me." I said, placing my hand over my heart and making her laugh."Hibbie-jibbies? What are we five?" she says, laughing. "Hey, guys!" Kenzie adds as she joins us, sitting next to me on the bench. "What are we talking about, huh?" She asks, placing her book bag down and smiling. "Asher Slate. Bay's new Prince charming." Kate says, making me roll my eyes."Oh... Asher. He's hot, so much better than Liam if you ask me." Kenzie adds, making me chuckle. "Yeah, he really is," I admitted, sighing. He and I haven't really exchanged many words, but he seems like the nicest guy ever. But if he can make Bailey forget about dumb Liam, I am all for it. Whatever he meant by 'rejecting me' I'm sure he said it for a reason, I won't dig
Loving Your Imperfections Volunteers Needed
Mia"That...was intense!" I said as I sat in Nate's car, making him chuckle. Jordan was knocked out in the back seat as we drove home. Nate chuckled, winking at me as he held my hand. "It was. Who knew Grandpa's bistro was so busy!" he adds, making me chuckle."Yeah, no kidding. It's pretty busy for being in the middle of a small town." I said as he nodded. The place was close to the Marine barracks, and since it was now close to October, the preparations for our annual town fair were happening, which meant that the town was going to start swarming with tourists and soldiers from the Marine barracks coming by more often.And- if you're wondering why Jordan keeps riding with Nate all the time, it's because every time Amanda gets mad at him, she takes his car keys away. It's pretty sad, but she's just like that. She's toxic, even if they tell me otherwise. I can see through her. She acts so sweet in front of people, but I've seen the way she treats Jordan. It's as if she didn't want hi
Loving Your Imperfections Jade
MiaThe bell to the next class would soon ring but Nate was adamant to hold me as he buried his head in the curve of my neck, making me chuckle. "You know you're going to be late for the next class. Coach Mitchell is not going to be happy if you're late," he grunts, making me chuckle. Their practice started after school years ago, but in recent years, they changed it by making all the sports start practice during their last class of the day. This way, they didn't go home so late. I think it was best this way, since soon it was going to start getting darker soon, and Kate sometimes stayed later at the library. This town is really safe, everyone knows each other, but you never know with so many tourists coming into town now and then."Hey, would you mind going with me after school to the library?" I asked Nate, as I ran my fingers through his hair, making him sigh."Of course. What for, if you don't mind me asking?" he asks smiling, showing me his dimples as he slowly pulls away. "I w
Loving Your Imperfections Changing Circumstances
MiaI sat in Nate's car as I waited for him so we could go home, I felt baffled. A bit mad and irritated. The last I wanted was to have more problems at work. I had enough of dealing with Andrea and her goons at school. Why did she have to join my work field? Why, of all people of all the jobs available? Why did Jade have to choose this one?Did I just witness Jade getting a job she swore she would never do? She was one of the richest most stuck-up and spoiled girls in my old school. She was a year and a half older than me, taking advantage of the fact that I was so naive. When I started dating my ex, Kevin, she was pissed. I didn't know he and Jade had gone out. They both attended the same year of school. She hated me from the moment I began dating him, making my life a living hell. She was cruel, nothing like the little shit-talking Andrea throws my way. I literally came home crying almost every day. And in the end, she won. She had sworn that she'd steal him back, and she won. N
Loving Your Imperfections He's Amazing
MiaI waited for Nate to finish his practice for the day sitting with Kenzie and Bailey while we talked, joking with each other and eating junk food. By junk food, I mean I stole some of Nate's spicy chips from his backpack and bought sodas. After we were done, we each headed in our own directions. Jordan took off with Kenzie, Bailey was picked up by Asher, and I left with Nate. I felt bad as I took off, I had completely forgotten that Kevin wanted to catch up with me. But maybe it's for the best we don't talk so much. For one, I don't want any further arguments with Jade, and I definitely don't want Nate to get the wrong idea of us. "So, where to? We have the rest of the afternoon free. No work, Kenzie said you finished homework while you waited, and I have no homework today, other than reading. Do you want to go eat something, or go back to your house? Maybe mine?" he asked, making me bite my bottom lip, pondering as I smiled at him. "How about we get takeout from your grandma's
Loving Your Imperfections I Might Just Want To
Mia Nate and I were in bed watching a movie. He held me tight as we snuggled in a spooning position, making me smile as he placed soft kisses on my hair, holding me by my hips. Everyone else had already gone to sleep, making his house go silent; except for the novice in his room of course, as we played the movie in a very low volume.The night had gotten particularly cooler tonight, making me get cold. "God, it's so cold. My feet are freezing." I say as I press my feet against his, making him chuckle. "Well, it's a good thing I'm here. You can use my body to keep warm all night long if you want, baby," he says, teasingly, making me chuckle as he sucks on my neck and causing my stomach to flutter. I shivered as I felt his warm hands trail slowly under my shirt. He slowly caressed my skin, from my navel to my ribs, stopping right by my bra line.I couldn't help but bite my bottom lip as I hoped he'd go a little more.I turn my body to face him, interlacing my legs with his wrapping my

Loving Your Imperfections I'm Just Getting Started
Mia's POV"Sophie, I just wanted to thank you and Logan. The outcome of tonight's event was better than I expected. The profits your firm is donating to the school will be more than enough to fund all the projects we have in store for the rest of the school year. Again... Logan, none of this would have been possible without you and Sophie. Thank you so much." Our principal, Mrs. McGee, smiles at Nate's parents as she sees the gala results. She was so happy with the numbers she saw in front of her. Nate's dad was a very smart man, and he calculated equal parts to donate to schools around our neighborhood and other places that had begged for help from banks but had been turned down. I sometimes think he's an angel. Nate's family is exceedingly wealthy, but they have remained humble and don't hesitate to help those in need, even if it's out of their pocket or volunteering countless hours. "Vanessa, it's no trouble at all. I'm glad tonight was a success." Sophie says, hugging our princ
Loving Your Imperfections Secrets
Mia's POVTo say I was perplexed is an understatement. How could Andrea do something like this? I mean, we were friends not even a year ago, for fucks sake. But now, she doesn't just only bother me, but she sends her friends to sabotage me, and now- she even dares to steal my mom's necklace? How can she do this to me? If it hadn't been for Nate and Axel, who got the necklace back to me, I would have lost it forever. I would have been devastated if I had lost it. It's the last thing I have of her besides my pictures. I sigh as the auction continues and see my sculpture finally being brought to the stage. Sophie's eyes light up, and she wiggles in her seat as she looks at it. "Baby, it's this one. This is the one I was telling you about! Isn't it beautiful?" she tells Logan, making him look up from his phone. He had been looking at his phone and reviewing his stocks during the auction. Not much caught his eye, so he stopped looking at the items being sold. "Wow, Mia... you did thi
Loving Your Imperfections Worth
Mia's POVThe bidding began, and so many items were shown; I was mesmerized by how many people had shown up. We not only had the wealthiest folks from our town but also from visiting towns, and I was astonished to see that visitors as far as California came to the bidding.As usual, Asher's parents auctioned a complete vacation package to one of their hotels for a week, and everything was paid for. We had three packets in total: one from Asher's parents, one from his uncle, Blake Landon, to one of his hotels in the Maldives, and the third from a younger guy named Axel Vasquez. Everyone said he looked scary and was really serious, but he was actually really nice. He was good friends with Nate's dad, Logan, and sat beside Nate. He talked with Nate the whole time we sat before the bidding began.When the auction brought a dress made by the new fashion tycoon, Mila Tanner, he went crazy bidding on it. Unfortunately for him, Andrea also had her eyes on the dress, irritating him. The dres
Loving Your Imperfections The Gala
Mia This week went by quickly. I've been thinking hard about what to paint and have come up with nothing. I have drawn out nearly a dozen ideas, but nothing is concrete. On the bright side, I decided to take up Mrs. Mitchell's request and donated my art piece. Nate also donated an art piece, but Rainey decided not to donate. One, because the art piece the teacher wanted was already sold, and two, because most of her pieces were still back in California. Plus, her mom had already donated a great piece for the gala, which also works in her name.Unlike my genre of art, which I mainly paint in fauvism but love pop art and rococo, Nate is more of a still life and expressionist portrait painter. I can't wait to see what piece he donated. As for Rainey, she has the ability to do everything. She is good at painting scenes and portraits, but what I love is that her style has the whole Frida Kahlo vibe to it. She mixes her styles between surrealism and cubism, self-portraits with modern art
Loving Your Imperfections Career Path
Mia's POVI tried my hardest to pay attention to class the rest of the day, but Andrea's words still lingered in my mind. I know she's just trying to get under my skin, but I can't feel insecure about her words. Do I doubt Nate? No, absolutely not. He's shown me how caring he is, and I've had multiple people tell me how different he is with me. I've had folks say he looks happier and perkier than before, so no... I don't doubt him. But I have been so preoccupied with my future that I have not paid as much attention to him and our relationship as I should have. He deserves so much more of me than what we have already shared.I won't hold him accountable for his past. I know he's had a few one-night stands with girls in school, and Andrea isn't lying—he's always gone back to her. He's even dated Kenzie, but even she has said she likes him more than me.Yet- I'm still threatened by Andrea. She knows how to manipulate Nate. I love him, and being with him has made me the happiest I've be
Loving Your Imperfections Low-Class Misconceptions
MiaI couldn't help but look at my paper as I sat in science class. I have been so busy filling out applications that I completely forgot to study for our exam. I swear, I'm sweating bullets right now. What am I going to do if I fail this exam? How will I get into university with low test scores? “Now remember, the exam is 25% of your grade this quarter, so make sure you do your best. No talking during the exam, and if you have any questions, please raise your hand and wait for me to call you to my desk in silence. You have the remainder of the class to finish your exam. You may begin… now!” 0yr teacher says as she looks at her watch and begins the timer. I sigh, opening my exam and closing my eyes, grunting inwardly. I seriously hope it's not too hard, or I'm going to faint right here, on the spot. Jordan looks at me and smiles, winking his left eye. “You got this, Mia,” he whispers, making me smile. Maybe I'm overthinking, right? How hard can it be? It's only… 25% of my grade.
Loving Your Imperfections You Crossed The Line
MiaIt was as if a destructive chain reaction had been set off against me. The entire night, I had to deal with Jade's angry stares being thrown my way. It got so bad she had two of the other girls trying to sabotage my day, murmuring amongst themselves, purposely bumping into me, and almost making me spill my drinks on a customer. They messed with my orders, writing, adding or deleting things from my tickets, and making customers become irritated with me. Most of the customers were locals, so they didn't go completely off on me, except for a group of men acting rowdy and calling me an incompetent brat. By the end of my break, I just wanted to roll into a ball and act like I wasn't even here anymore. I sighed as I sat at the lockers and closed my eyes. Today's event played over and over in my head. Jade was not shy from throwing daggers my way all late afternoon and into the early hours of the evening, making me feel so stupid... so incompetent. What started as a good day soon beca
Loving Your Imperfections Misjudged
Mia (days later)I will not go into many details about what happened that night between Nate and me, but let me tell you, it was incredible. I don't think I have ever experienced anything this good, and I definitely will not be able to forget it. I can't stop thinking about him. Nate was such a gentleman with me, so careful, and my god! He's so good in bed, and I mean so damn good. It's left me with an insatiable desire for him. I have not gotten my hands off of Nate since that night. And yes, I'm still getting used to this new level in our relationship, but I think I just became addicted to him. My parents just informed us that our house is finally done. Two days ago, we started moving into our home, and I finally had a room to myself. Of course, Nate was first in line when it came to helping us move our stuff back. He didn't hesitate to jump in and get busy. Before we knew it, Jordan, Nate, and a bunch of their football buddies had jumped in and helped us move into our house alon
