"We often confuse what we wish for with what is." ~ Neil Gaiman

School yard love that ends when the bells ring.

A collection of short stories, poems and bits and scraps of stories long forgotten, or stories yet to be told.

"I think you should -" "Correction: I am in my own body, with my own mind; you do not and cannot tell me what to do."

A/N: This is an unedited, significantly different version of the soon to be published novel by losangelesque aka L. Akhter. This draft was written when I was 15-18 years old and I highly encourage new readers to read the published version instead. Former high school football star Frank Novak meets profound and depressed loner Lolita Abri - and falls headfirst into love. Throughout the course of one school year, they unravel each other and their sadness, setting apart their differences and realizing that sometimes love isn't enough - and sometimes it just might be.
