After her best friend decides to go to prom with her crush of eight years, Willow decides it's time to get away from it all and a road trip sounds like the solution. On a whim, she hightails it out of town and heads where the road takes her. Along the way she meets some interesting characters. There's Sam, a gay Native American who's boyfriend is the local farmer's boy, who can't give himself fully until it's too late; Spencer, an eighty-three year old man trying to live again and correct his mistakes; and Dean, a runaway who's got more secrets than Willow can imagine.

For 17-year-old high school senior Evan Brooks, life could be better. He's a social outcast at school, stuck in a rural Alabama small town he never wanted to move to, and he's got a secret he's desperately trying to keep: he's gay. When he, his hypermasculine brother, homophobic stepdad, and aloof mother all embark on a weekend vacation to the Florida panhandle, none of them can anticipate how much a simple 3-day trip will change their lives forever... CONTENT WARNING/TRIGGERS: Please note that this story contains very strong language at times and some mature themes. Some characters face emotional abuse. There is also a small amount of physical abuse, but it is mostly implied apart from one scene which is not extremely graphic. Some characters are homophobic, and a slur is used a handful of times. **2025 Update: Hi! This was my very first attempt at crafting an entire story from scratch all the way back in 2020, and I'd like to think my writing has since improved. I will soon be revisiting this story and making some enhancements - most notably, splitting up current chapters into smaller ones so they are much more easily digestible. In addition, I'll be making some edits to grammar and formatting, as well as giving some of the dialog a refresh in an effort to be less...cringe. Lol. There are also a few plot points I want to smooth out. While all of this is happening, the story will still be available in full here on Wattpad, though you may notice some "construction" happening (i.e. one chapter is very long and then there's a super short chapter, one chapter is formatted differently than another, etc.) Thanks for your patience while I work to spruce up this story :) I hope you still enjoy it in the meantime!

Samantha had always been the new girl, moving from place to place as her parents pursued their careers. When she started her senior year at a new school, she was determined to stay under the radar and avoid any unnecessary drama. But fate had other plans. Tyler was the star quarterback, popular with everyone in school and always surrounded by a group of adoring fans. Samantha didn't care for him at first, thinking he was arrogant and superficial.

As Samantha and Tyler got to know each other, they discovered they had more in common than they thought. They both loved literature and music, and they shared a passion for achieving their dreams. But their relationship was far from easy, as they had to navigate the challenges of high school and the opinions of their friends and families. Through it all, they discovered that their love was worth fighting for. Will their love be strong enough to overcome the obstacles in their way? Read on to find out in "Opposites Attract: A High School Love Story". NOTE: Some chapters might be AI-generated content! Anyway, hope you still enjoy it! Awards: 312 - teen drama
