SCIENCE-FANTASY/ ROMANCE The new kid had an aura that set him apart from everyone Joe had ever encountered. It was as if he were a puzzle piece that didn't quite fit, yet he seemed passionately determined to carve out his place in the crowd. With his brightly colored hair that swayed in defiance of the usual norms and an eclectic wardrobe that screamed individuality, he was a walking canvas of rebellion and creativity. Joe couldn't shake his curiosity about this enigmatic newcomer. What was it about this fresh face that captivated him so deeply? Was it merely the striking exterior, or was there a richer story woven beneath that vibrant surface? As he observed the subtle nuances in the new kid's expressions and gestures, Joe found himself pondering the layers of identity, searching for the truths hidden just beyond the façade. It ignited a flicker of fascination within him-one that begged to be explored. An otherworldly boyxboy tale...

**ORIGINAL VERSION, NO LONGER ACTIVE BUT COMPLETED** *spoilers if you are reading current version* Jake Mitchell wanted nothing more than to be the nameless guy you pass on the way to your afternoon chemistry lecture every Friday. Familiar, but unknown at the same time. Just enough recognition to remember, but knowing so little that you make up stories for him in your head. That's the only reason he took the offer from Everett University to be a left-wing forward on their Division 1 hockey team. A forgotten team really. Dead last in their league and close to dead last in the division. It was just something to help pay the tuition, but nothing much to get any recognition. He gets to keep playing hockey, he can afford to go to an out-of-state school, and he can remain unknown. It's his perfect game plan. Or well it was. Until the worst possible series of events happens. The team wins their first game in 13 years, shocked fans catch Jake talking to a popular pro player after a game, and an unfortunate tweet blows up. All leading to Jake's face being plastered on every Twitter feed, Instagram story, and social media outlet that you can think of. His worst nightmare comes to life in real time. Now with the help of his team, he has to figure out how to deal with his newfound fame while trying to get his bachelor's in chemical engineering and win as many damn hockey games as he possibly can before time runs out and he has to run again. Except, maybe this time he won't have to.
