Lola Castaneda never imagined herself managing the boys baseball team. She never imagined finding a family in those boys. And she never imagined herself falling for the wrong boy.
Lola's day started off as normal as one should be: being stalked by her best friend's sister. As far as Lola was concerned, that was pretty normal. What she wasn't expecting, though, was to be approached by Taylor Harris, the definition of everything right in the world. She knew him because of her best friend, Sophie Jones. Since Sophie was the manager for the boys baseball team, Lola knew most of the baseball boys. It still surprised her that Taylor would talk to her, inviting her to the baseball group chat that included Sophie.
It surprised her even more when her own sister asked her to fill in the vacant managers spot.
Lola wanted to say no. Everything in her being told her to say no. She just didn't know why she said yes. Now her days were filled with watching the boys practice and fetching their gear, which was a little demeaning. She went along with it anyway since it would be a great addition for scholarships related to baseball.
While being the manager, she befriended the worst player on the team -- Noah Dawson. He was always getting made fun of behind his back, so she decided to cheer him up by baking some cookies. That resulted in her almost killing him because she put peanuts in them. She thought he would hate her forever, but they became best friends after that incident.
In such a short time, these boys became her family. And then the unimaginable happened: Lola was denounced from the managers spot. After that, everything fell apart. Until the home run kiss.

The Corner Store
I fell for a boy with the kindest blue eyes, and a charming dimple. He made me feel loved, and cared for, and most importantly he made me feel safe in his presence. He came right in the middle of a tornadoe and managed to turn it into blue skies. He changed my perspective and gave me hope and strength." I looked at him, and he was smiling, and his eyes were a little glossy. He took my hand and kissed it, a small tear caught in the corner of his beautiful eyes. "I thought, hey, maybe life isn't so bad after all. Maybe I can finally allow myself to love and be loved, and to live life normally. When we went to your party, you told me to wait for you. But then your perverted cousin made me feel super uncomfortable, so I went looking for you, just to be able to feel at peace again. And that's when I saw it." My heart beats skyrocketed, because this was the moment everything changed forever. "Saw what?" Asked Axel. I took a deep breath, and continued. It's now or never. ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Sophia Grace is a 25 year old Forensic Science major who recently started working as a cashier at her local grocery store - "The Corner Store".

The Familiar Face✅
Liv Foster and Noah Fisher were the kind of childhood friends who could finish each other's sentences and steal fries off each other's plates without asking. Summers meant baseball dirt under Noah's nails, sunburn on Liv's shoulders, and some kind of unspoken promise that they'd always be in each other's orbit. Cut to college-new freedom, same heartbeat-and somewhere between study sessions and late-night drives, friendship twisted into something heavier. They fell, hard. Until Noah did the one thing Liv thought he never would: he cheated. No drama explosion, no cinematic screaming. Just quiet devastation. She walked away and built walls out of professionalism and caffeine. Years later, Liv gets an email that looks like the universe playing a cruel joke: she's just been offered a job as assistant to the new athletic director for the Party Animals. The same chaotic rival team that loves glitter, pranks, and unhinged celebrations. The same team where Noah Fisher-number 12, golden-boy outfielder, heartbreak incarnate-now plays. Liv walks into that stadium like she owns her composure. Noah sees her for the first time in years, and every apology he rehearsed evaporates. Their dynamic turns into this tightrope walk between old habits and unresolved tension. He tries humor, she gives him silence. He makes a catch mid-game, and she refuses to look impressed. But rivalry has a strange way of making sparks dangerous again. Forced to collaborate for charity events, media shoots, and player discipline reports (because Noah definitely pulls pranks that end up on TikTok), they start peeling back the layers-resentment, guilt, that stupid old warmth that never really died. It's friends to lovers to strangers to lovers again, but this time older, warier, and more real. The question isn't whether they'll fall again-it's whether they can trust each other not to break what's already been rebuilt.
The Line Drive
"'Bye.' I say after Edwin's kiss. He gives me a small smile that honestly looks more like a grimace. It makes me a little uncomfortable having him kiss me in the library. Edwin walks away, and someone standing in the corner of my vision makes me turn in my seat. A tall, muscular man is standing there, his arms crossed, staring at me. He's got dark brown hair, perfect eyebrows, and soft brown eyes. Honestly, he's gorgeous. And since I've read, and edited, about five articles about him, I recognize him immediately. Dane Sawyer. He's the best pitcher on our baseball team. He's hoping to go pro, although I'm not totally sure what the process is surrounding that, since I don't retain much of the information from the articles that I read about him. I know that he's also a junior, and that his girlfriend is hot as fuck. I've seen them together on campus. They're hard to miss because they are easily one of the most attractive couples that I've ever seen. I'm convinced that I must be hallucinating, because he makes eye contact and walks towards me. 'That was awkward.'" ~~~ Junior year is starting off chaotic for Mackenzie Brooks as she steps into her role as the editor-in-chief of the college's newspaper. She's smart, focused on school, the paper, and her TA responsibilities. Junior year should be starting off easy for Dane Sawyer. He's the star pitcher of the baseball team; attractive, athletic, desirable, with a hot girlfriend. Unfortunately, he's also failing computer science which is the one thing he sees that is in the way of his pro career. Different in more ways that one, when the two run into each other in the library, it's an immediate disaster. But when Dane convinces Mackenzie to be his tutor, both of their lives begin to change.Concluída

Training Camp Compromise
Nathan Baker hates Julian Cruz. He hates his snarky attitude, he hates how overly confident he is, but most of all--he hates how good he is at football. He hates how stupid Roosevelt High school took home the championship trophy and the way the stupid rival team picked up his stupid rival, chanted his stupid name while he looked at Nathan with a stupid grin. Yep, Nathan hates him. But this year is his year. He's the captain of the Cortland Foxes football team, he's the starting quarterback, and he finally is back on good terms with his on and off girlfriend, Veronica. Senior year is the year. That is until on the first day of training the coach introduces someone who, in fact, does not need an introduction and Nathan almost explodes with anger on the spot. The feeling of hatred is very much mutual for Julian Cruz. He hates Nathan Baker with every fiber in his body. He hates his Hollywood attitude, he hates how rich he is, but greater than all--he hates how good he is at football. Sure, Julian had made the lucky catch and managed to make the final touchdown of the championship game and win, sure, he was praised as a God for the rest of that school year and got scouted by a couple college coaches. But none of that matters now that he and his Mom have gotten kicked out from their apartment and the only place they could find is too far to continue his laid-back life at Roosevelt High. It doesn't matter anymore because now he is forced to go to the one school in the world he would never have chosen if given the chance. Cortland High school, home of the foxes and his worst enemy. Well, since they're on the same team now they have to reach some sort of compromise...right? Who knows, maybe, just maybe, they'll like each other more than either of them thought.

"Okay, you know what? You're such a jackass and I never should have kissed you," I say. Colton stands up. His green eyes are just as angry as mine are. "Then why did you?" he asks. "I don't know!" I yell. "Why did you kiss me back?" "Hey, you kissed me," Colton says. "We already established that! God! It's like talking to a wall. Whatever I say just fucking bounces right off of you!" I yell. "Do you have any idea how maddening you are?" Colton looks at me. "You don't think you're infuriating?" Colton asks. I narrow my eyes. He starts to walk towards the door. I grab the M&M's and chuck them at Colton. He whips around, his eyes blazing green. "Where the fuck are you going? We're talking!" I yell, crossing my arms. He rubs the back of his neck where the M&M's hit him. "You wanna talk? Fine. Let's talk," Colton says. "You're obviously messed up from all of the shit your mom did." "Maybe I am! It's not your fucking business!" I pause. "Why do you even care? You're just some manwhore, right? A fuckboy?" Colton laughs dryly. "Is that what you think I am?" he asks. He takes a step closer to me. I'm two seconds away from kissing him again. Andy Reed-Collins has never fit in.
