For The Love Of The Game (Book 1) by CamSchells

A young basketball star, age 13, coming up on 14 soon, loves to play basketball, and actually is insanely good at it. Not only is he fast, and has the stamina to maintain through an entire 48 minutes, but he also is a hard worker. After school, he usually goes to work out after all of that, doing his best to always be in the most fit, and the most pristine shape, all at the exact same time as well. There is only one problem in this story, which is the simple fact, that he is short, and you know the old term, usually for basketball, but also for a lot of other sports, which was 'short people can't play'. To be fair, all at the exact same time as well, the kid is still young, and he still has room to grow, but he is very short, and that means it's nearly impossible to shoot on his defenders. Luckily, his dribbling skills, and his moves work for him, and usually get the defender of balance, giving him an easy shot, but some times, he does not even have to do that, as he can pass it to an outlet man, and a shooter, or perhaps a big man in the paint. Trevor, is a very great player none the less, and he does a good job on rec league teams. He is tired of rec league though, and he wants to play high school basketball. The high school team has open try outs around early in the year, and he goes to the try out, all at the exact same time too. As he goes to try out, the coach just laughs at him, and doesn't really give him a chance, as he doesn't make the cut when all is said and done. This really hurts Trevor, as he wants a chance to do some thing with his skills. After school that day, he goes to his mother, and some how manages to transfer schools, to bit of a school out in the ghetto, as that is his only other choice. He tries out for the team there, but comes to find out that they have no coach, as their last one died last year. Without a coach, they have no team? Trevor is lost, but there is some one that is near him, he might be able to help him...

Everything Has Changed by paperandpen444

"If you asked me three months ago what heartbreak was, I would tell you it's losing somebody close to you due to unspeakable circumstances. But right now, in this moment, I would say it's you. I would say it's the feeling I got in my chest when I realized I was out of time. When I stood in the rain and yelled for you to stay, but all I saw was your back. I would say heartbreak is lying in bed at two in the morning, watching my ceiling fan go around and around, wondering why you couldn't stop to listen. Two seconds. All I needed was two seconds to say the words. All I needed was to seconds for me to tell you I was in love with you. With everything about you. With the way you move, and the feeling of your arms around me. With the feeling of your chest vibrating as you laugh. Heartbreak is falling in love with everything about you, but having the words permanently stuck in my throat." _____ Gracelyn Levinsky grew up with Daniel Grey. She has always looked to him as a brother, but when she escapes from her abusive Mom and moves to the same town Danny moved to when he was ten, she finds out that he's in love with her. After countless attempts to get her to feel the same, Danny gives up. But when Grace realizes just how much she does love Danny, words can't help her because he shut her out of his life completely. How do you tell somebody who you can't talk to that you're in love with them? Simple. You force them to listen. WARNING: THIS STORY INCLUDES THE VERY ATTRACTIVE DANIEL GREY WHO REMINDS ME AND EVERYONE WITH OVARIES OF A SOFT GOLDEN RETRIEVER PUPPY THAT IS SLEEPING ON YOUR CHEST SO PLEASE BEWARE THAT YOUR OVARIES WILL EXPLODE WHILE READING THIS STORY! AN: please don't steal this story. I'm working/have worked really hard to create this and develop the characters and story line. This is solely made up out of my mind.

What Dreams Are Made Of by Kayla_Whiteman

I wish I could say life has been easy. But that would be a lie. Having a parent pass, all but easy. Having a great group of friends though, that only makes it easier to cope. The down fall of that group of friends though, is that after a funeral, long summer vacation, the one friend I looked most forward to seeing, I can't even form a sentence with now. --- The summer before his 8th grade year, Calvin Truitt, his father John, and little brother Brayden went through a devastating loss. Calvin and Brayden lost their mother in a long, unglorious fight to the big C, pancreatic for the record. And John, lost the love of his life, his wife, and his very best friend. His friends spent that entire summer giving nothing but comfort, love, and not to mention good times that Calvin didn't want but absolutely needed. Minus one friend. That one friend, Delilah Martin. Delilah Martin spent that summer away, visiting with her grandparents in Nevada, but little to Calvins surprise, when they came back on that first day of school, Delilah was no longer that girl he always knew. Braces were gone, body filled out, coming in to her own sense of style, and it had Calvin shaking in his shoes. Fast forward 4 years, and barely a word has been said between he, and his former bruh girl best friend turned baddie, until, Calvin's fresh new sister shows up in beautiful St Augustine Florida, and just as much as he and his friends rocked her world, she rocked his by befriending beautiful Delilah Martin. Delilah, she is the girl Calvin has always dreamed of. When it comes to Calvin, Delilah feels that she might as well keep dreaming. But with the help of Haven, Tucker, Colten, Ricky, and Shay, not to mention the loud and over-opinionated friends he's come to share with Haven from New Orleans, can Calvin make his dream girl his reality?
