6	!!Centre Of Attention contains examples of:
7	* AffablyEvil: For all their virtues, the protagonists are a criminal gang. Played straightest with Gwen, who quits committing crimes once she has the money to attend art college.
8	%%* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: Brooklyn, Sammy, Courtney and Heather, to varying degrees. Subverted with Brooklyn, since she only starts to like Scott after he shows his nicer side.
9	* AlphaBitch:
10	** Amy. She spends every moment she has treating her twin and her friends like the lowest of the low, but somehow she's still popular and well-liked.
11	** Heather and Courtney to a lesser extent. Courtney mostly acts this way [[spoiler: out of jealousy]] but Heather explicitly states that she isn't nice and doesn't like anyone.
12	* BeautyIsBad: Most of the gang. Brooklyn states outright that Courtney and Heather are "extremely pretty" and also calls notice to Duncan having nice eyes and Alejandro being "conventionally gorgeous".
13	* TheCasanova: Alejandro goes through several girls, even though he's dating Heather.
14	* ClingyJealousGirl:
15	** Courtney accuses Gwen of being interested in Duncan and refusing to like Sammy after [[spoiler: she gets with Duncan, although she claims she doesn't blame her for their own breakup]].
16	** {{Downplayed\|trope}} with Brooklyn, when Scott's former crush appears as part of a seniors' exchange trip. Brooklyn becomes worried about what could happen.
17	* DomesticAbuse: Courtney is implied to treat her boyfriend badly, which eventually causes Duncan to [[spoiler: break up with her and ask Sammy out instead.]]
18	* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold:
19	** Sammy. Although she shows a rebellious streak, she never stops being kind and gentle.
20	** Dawn. She's extremely gentle, wise and forgiving, with pale blonde hair.
21	** Bridgette. She's blonde, and very friendly and good-natured, although she has her limits.
22	%%* NiceGirl: Brooklyn, Sammy and Dawn. Scott even points out some similarities [[spoiler: between Brooklyn and Dawn early on.]]
23	%%* ShrinkingViolet: Brooklyn, although she becomes more assertive later on.
24	%%* TomboyAndGirlyGirl:
25	%%** Jasmine and Sammy.
26	%%** More subtle with Gwen (who won't even dress up for New Year's Eve) and Courtney (who thinks a spa day is the best way to cure a lack of self-esteem).
27	%%* TownGirls: Sammy as Femme, Jasmine as Butch, and Brooklyn as Neither.
28	* TransplantedCharacterFic: The story takes some characters from the parent work and puts them in an unrelated setting, and [[AlternateUniverseFic does not acknowledge canon events]].
