Gloryhound - (Noun) : A person who's both consciously and subconsciously willing to give up anything to make his or her ambition true.
  
  Through the multicolored kaleidoscope of the fluorescent adolescent time of everyone's lives, the camera pans towards Gotfrey Newell.
    Full time best friend, part time hooligan and a boy who's never too far from following the boundaries of parental guidance.
    But life's invisible puppet hands behind the curtains are always a bit too bored with the monotonous performance of the protagonist, as the background of his life changes without cue cards or commands.
    
     His spiked baseball shoes and shin guards with homerun dust, is just the beginning of a daily routine, before change sweeps everyone of their feet through its silent reform.
    
    So strap yourself in the bones of the narrator, going through life with the high knowledge of social interaction and unfilled craving for affection. Peppered by a group of intelligent, difficult, lovely and ambitious characters who never fail to impress or to disappoint.

"I... Am here to see you.", I told him as I placed my hands around his neck. I could feel my heart beat getting faster but I had to keep it strong if I had to survive this scenario. "What?", Brandon asked completely startled. I leaned in more closer to him. The only good thing in this entire scene was that he wasn't pushing me back due to my creepy behaviour. "Oh... Bran, I was missing you so much, I just... I needed to see you.", I said as I came up with lie. "Are you drunk?", Brandon asked as he leaned in closer trying to smell my mouth. Thank God Fel had given me her mint gum only moments before I went commando and came inside the locker room. "What?", I scoffed still standing extremely close to Brandon. "I just.... I was missing your gorgeous face.", I told another lie. But wait? His face is gorgeous so that isn't a lie. And was I not missing seeing him? I noticed Brandon who just had his eyes popped out of his socket with bewilderment at my words. I decided to peck him on the cheek before I storm out of the locker room. I leaned ahead to peck Brandon who moved his face in my direction and instead of his cheeks, our lips crashed. Brushing against each other, our lips touched. I could feel fireworks exploding inside my entire body. With my neurological system not responding anymore. ******* Depicting the hostility and vulnerability of a young woman to a society the story centers around a normal sophomore, Amy Cole, who had a normal life.
