Dream starts to develop feelings for his long term best friend when suddenly they decide to meet. Will seeing George in person make him fall in love or only serve to drive him away? More importantly... how does George feel about him? "You need to stop right now before you give me a heart attack," I said. I could see him softly bite his bottom lip which affected me much more than I care to admit. "George," I breathed. "Bite your lip one more time and when you come over I'll punish you." His eyes widened and his breathing changed just like mine had. "And what if I want that?" he asked, smirking. "George," I warned. "I'm fucking serious." I asserted. I saw his breath hitch and he bit his lip once more. "Fuck," I breathed. How was he this attractive? "And what will that punishment be?" he asked slyly.

What do you know about Vincent Russell? Well...most people don't know anything, considering he is an absolute closed book, which is ironic since his face is always shoved into an open one. If you happen to catch the attention of the grouch, there is no promise that he won't cuss you out or give a crap about you at first glance. The unbothered, quiet boy sure has a lot brewing on the inside from his uprising, but Vincent isn't the intimidating asshole everyone makes him out to be. ...But he does have a weakness: that annoying kid that pried his way into his life called Hayden Williams. So, who exactly is Hayden Williams? He's the definition of a train wreck. Most people are surprised that the social butterfly can even keep his head attached to his body. With the chaotic energy he brings to every room, any night can end in spin the bottle, inappropriate jokes, and possible jail time...kidding (not really). However, there is depth to every party animal. The remaining question is how on earth are these two best friends? Even better, how do these two become more than friends when their personalities conflict in every way possible? Follow them through the years of their lives in 'Lilies for a Lifetime.' **This is a spin-off of 'Flowers for Football.' It can be read as a stand-alone but many spoilers and scenes from the book will be mentioned**
