Within seconds there was a large amount of flames occupying the entrance to the football field and everyone, spectators, football players and cheerleaders, rushed to the other side of the field to get away from the fire started by my one and only, crazy ex-boyfriend, Blake.
Instead of running like the rest of the people on and off the field, I headed towards the flames to see if I could stop him from doing more damage. If only I could find him and calm him down.
**********
"Everybody step back! Give her some space!" I hear a familiar voice yell. I crack an eye open and see the star quarterback on his knees next to me. He starts to pick me up as I open both of my eyes and I squirm out of his grasp.
"Stay still, you're hurt," he says in a very emotionless voice.
"Nothing you haven't done before," I mutter and he picks me up again carrying me off.

An Unexpected Moment
... that changes everything Sarah was starting her junior year of high school. Looking at herself in the mirror, she saw a pretty average blonde haired, blue eyed, teenager. She was neither in the popular group, nor one of the many cliched outsiders. Sarah was a nobody. She liked to blend in and lay low. It was her way out of not only this town, but her house. No one knew it, but her father was a high functioning alcoholic that often took his anger out on his family. With her older sister now in college, it had turned to her more often. Laying low in general was a good strategy. Across town, Ryan was prepping for his final year in high school. While he wasn't the stereotypical quarterback of the football team, he did fit into the popular crowd. His sports of choice included basketball and soccer, either of which might line him up for a scholarship next year. Ryan had a group of close friends and a lot of adoring acquaintances. It wasn't easy juggling his athletics and keeping the grades up, but he was just that good. The supporting parents didn't hurt either. It might be a cliché romance, but it will be fun to see what the year and beyond holds. ------------------------------------------ This is a story I wrote years ago, or at least partially wrote. As I transcribe it here, I have tried to update it a bit and give the characters/story more depth than what I had when I was younger. Hopefully it all gets pulled together!Complete
Cherry Wine
Stories tell you about girls who play with fire and come out unscathed. They tell you about girls who play with fire and end up falling in love with it. Thinking about it always made me laugh. Oh, how nice it would be if all that were true. Because fire isn't something you could hold in your arms and dance with. It's not your lover. It's not something that can be loved. I'll tell you what the stories forget to mention. I'll tell you what really happens when you play with fire. Girls play with fire because it's been so long since they've felt something. Girls play with fire because once you touch it, you can't let go. Girls play with fire and in the end, all they can do is burn, burn, and burn.Complete
Odd One Out

Can grieving and guarded firefighter Marcus help Mabel learn the ways of love? Or will she teach him how to live life with your heart on your sleeve?Complete
You Like Me?! | ✓
"So, let me get this straight," I looked at him weirdly, raising my hands slightly in exclamation. "You like me?!" I asked him in disbelief. "Like or like-like?" I really can't get my head to process his words at the moment. "Is it weird that I don't." He simply replied, his voice sounded calm but serious at the same time. "And for your question, I do. I do like-like you. Like, I really like you. To the point that you're the only thing that's on my mind everyday and I can't seem to get you off it." I was literally standing there like an idiot, slowing blinking my eyes in a slow pace, still can't believe what's actually happening in front of me. ______________________________ ( Partially Edited.)

Love at first Hate | ✔️
Ross stepped a step closer to me from across the room, confusion never leaving his eyes. "Are you hiding from someone ?" I bit my lip. The next door Alec would open, would definitely be this one. I was playing out all kind of escape plans in my head but the only possible one I came up with was this idea. I can always change my name and move to another country, right ? What about Mexico ? "Laura ?" I quickly walked up to Ross, "I'm sorry in advance." "What do you mean, I-", he couldn't even finish his sentence when I suddenly pulled him towards me, walking backwards till my back hit the wall. I saw his eyes widen a little, "Laura, wait, are you drunk again ? What the hell are you doing ? I-", in that very moment the door opened and I grabbed Ross by his shirt and pulled him towards me, making our lips meet. {C O M P L E T E D} ©selftice | idea, story & cover. ⊱⊰ #1 in #lauramarano (03/07/20) #1 in #auslly (17/02/21)Complete
Brody's Girl
A shy high school senior jock and a closed-off girl battling an immune disorder fake a relationship to win a social media contest. Being shy isn't easy, especially when you're the new kid at school. Scotts Valley's football program is subpar compared to my last school's team, but the starters underestimate my all-conference skills. Girls eye me like fresh meat. Mom's cooking has the fire department on speed dial, and her game cheering makes me want to crawl under the bleachers. In the middle of all this stress, I'm still so tongue-tied that I can't talk to anyone. Scotts Valley High's 'Golden Couple' competition-which I want no part of-grates my nerves. I want to play football and baseball, then continue whatever gets me a college scholarship. Only Paige treats me as a normal person. People at school say she's quiet and closed-off, but she's nice to me. She's hiding her awesome self under baggy clothes and the brightest, pinkest hair I've ever seen. I don't understand why she's picked on, and I don't like it. Her medical bills are mounting, so I'm doing something about it. Paige and I pretend to date to remove ourselves from the rumor mill and win the Golden Couple's cash prize. What I don't expect is to catch feelings for my 'first trust,' the first friend I can open up to and be myself around...my girl Paige.
