40 parts Complete Mature"she's behind the camera. he's stealing her focus."
Lauren Vavasis has always been surrounded by the ocean and the game. born and raised in Florida, she splits her time between the University of South Florida softball field and the gulf coast shoreline-studying marine biology by day, framing sunsets and fastballs through her camera lens by night. as USF's starting second baseman and catcher, she's disciplined, creative, and quietly competitive-a girl who sees the world in snapshots and stolen bases.
her older brother, however, lives and breathes chaos. as the head coach of the Party Animals, the Savannah Bananas' wild, show-stealing rivals, he's loud, unpredictable, and fiercely protective. especially, when it comes to his little sister. so when he lands Lauren a summer internship as the team's official photographer, he assumes she'll stay behind the lens, focused on her work.
but the moment Bronson "Bronny" Balholm, the Party Animals' charismatic catcher, steps into frame, everything changes. he's confident, charming, and entirely off-limits. as the season unfolds, boundaries blur between what's professional and what feels impossible to ignore. and when the team lights dim and the crowds go home, Lauren begins to wonder if she's photographing the story or living it.
now caught between loyalty and longing, she must decide whether to protect her brother's trust or take a chance on something real-even if it means letting herself be the one caught this time.
because in The Coach's Sister, sometimes the best stories happen behind the camera... and the hardest hearts to capture are your own.
NOTE: this story is based in Lauren's POV. i don't know if vava has a sister or not, but lets just say that he does in this story.
