When a sudden doctor runs onto the field and 5 friends cannot seem to look away.

Genevieve "Gen" Brown was never supposed to fit into Briar University's chaotic hockey world, not after last time that ended badly a broke heart. An Art History major with a sharp tongue hidden behind soft-spoken elegance, Gen preferred quiet cafés, annotated novels, and late nights spent buried beneath oversized sweaters and museum essays. With her porcelain features, pale green eyes, and calm, unreadable demeanor, most people assumed she was delicate. They were wrong. Where Hannah Wells burns bright with stubborn independence and Allie Hayes wears her heart openly, Gen is the steady center between them-the girl who notices everything and says just enough to leave people speechless. She has a habit of dismantling egos with a single deadpan sentence, which becomes a problem for Dean Di Laurentis the second they meet. Because Dean thrives on attention. He's loud, charming, reckless, and impossibly magnetic-the Briar hockey team's resident golden boy with a grin that usually gets him whatever he wants. Girls fall for him easily. People orbit him naturally. Dean knows exactly how to light up a room. And Gen? Gen barely looks up from her coffee. Completely immune to the infamous "Dean effect," she sees through the flirting, the confidence, and the party-boy reputation almost instantly. She's been there before...but. What starts as playful banter quickly turns into something far more dangerous that scare her: lingering looks across crowded parties, late-night conversations in quiet libraries, stolen coffees, unspoken comfort, and the slow realization that the only person capable of calming Dean Di Laurentis down might be the one girl who never tried to impress him in the first place. But beneath Gen's composed exterior lies someone who carries her emotions silently, someone who's spent years convincing herself that needing people is weakness. That dating jocks? Wasn't it if she wanted another broken heart...

❝ Don't look at me like that. You have no idea what it's like to want someone so badly it feels like you're going insane.

Blair Hayes has always preferred observing over being observed. Between classes, cameras, and a project that could shape her entire future at Briar University, distractions are the last thing she needs. Especially not Garrett Graham - hockey star, owner of an annoyingly perfect smile, and somehow gifted at turning every situation into complete chaos. Garrett just needed help passing philosophical ethics. What he didn't expect was to meet someone who could see past the fame, the games, and the flawless image he'd spent years building. Some people enter your life slowly. Others change everything the moment they come into focus.

❝BEEN HERE ALL ALONG SO WHY CANT YOU SEE? YOU BELONG WITH ME ❞ Sienna Di Laurentis had always known exactly how she looked to other people. Perfectly put together. Effortlessly styled. The girl who never seemed like she was trying too hard, even when she absolutely was. Fashion wasn't just something she liked - it was how she spoke. She noticed things most people didn't. The way fabrics moved when someone walked. The way colour changed a mood. The difference between something expensive and something that just looked expensive. While other people at Briar University were figuring out who they were, Sienna already knew the version of herself she wanted the world to see. And she built it carefully. A way of deciding exactly how she took up space in a world that had once made her feel like she didn't get a say in anything at all. Because before Briar, before the sketches and fabric rolls and late-night design boards- there had been football. Not casual. Not hobby-level. Real football - elite, competitive, structured around discipline and pressure and expectation. The kind where talent gets noticed early and pushed even harder. Sienna had been good. Too good to be ignored. She had lived in that world completely once - training, matches, coaches, pressure, results. It was everything she thought she was becoming. Until it wasn't. It didn't end cleanly. Nothing like that ever does. At Briar, she was a second-year fashion design student. Dean Di Laurentis' younger sister. They were close in the way siblings who argued constantly usually were. Sarcastic, sharp, always one comment away from starting something. But underneath it, there was familiarity. History. Understanding without explanation. And now he played hockey at Briar. Which meant Sienna was never entirely separate from that world either. She just wasn't part of it. Not really. Not until him. Garrett Graham was exactly what Briar University expected him to be.
