1960s actor animals carnival dwarfism elvis elvispresley friendship love romance roustabout shaunarae smallperson vet youngadult

Our favorite star Elvis Presley learns to love the smaller things in life...

Elvis is working on the 1964 film Roustabout, which takes place at a carnival. There on the set, he meets a variety of people - a man who can swallow swords, a man a foot taller than him, and a woman who is twice his weight. Of course, these people are all extras with a unique talent or trait that got them onto the set. Among these special people is twenty-four-year-old Shannon Comm. She's an extra, as well as the resident vet, and she owns a friendly spaniel. Well, we all know how much Elvis loves animals... and women. Being involved with this one, though, or even being close to her, will cause problems. Why? She's only three-and-half feet tall, and everyone mistakes her for a person more than half her age. Regardless, the sparks fly. Hey, she may be the height of a child, but she's still a beautiful woman with a huge love for animals and huge blue eyes. How can Elvis resist?

Note: I got Shannon's image from Shauna Rae, a young woman with a rare growth defect. There's a show about her on TLC.

Vegas Hotel: The Female Bellhop by PurpleKorea134

You have seen Elvis with every girl you can think of from the twenty-six Elvis stories I have written. This time, Elvis falls in love with someone vastly younger than him. This may not come as too much of a surprise, since he loved younger women and even dated a girl half his age near the end of his life. I just wanted to take my own spin of this idea. It is 1974, and Elvis is busy doing shows in Vegas. He is still in a bit of a slump because of his divorce with Priscilla the year before, and, for the first time in his life, he doesn't want to have anything to do with romance. He just tries to stay busy. Well, all is thrown off-kilter when he happens to see a young bellhop at the hotel he's living and working in being mistreated. Of course, he will have none of that. Turns out the lad is a young woman, to his surprise, as her blonde hair escapes her bellhop hat. This blonde beauty looks no older than twenty-one, but... well, we all know how much Cupid loves toying with Elvis. And this girl, who happens to not be much of a fan of Elvis, is shocked when she starts feeling something for a man nearly twice her age! Well, of course, a girl can't help herself when a man wants to protect her. Cover photo and other pictures used in the story are courtesy of AI generation. (Boy, do I love AI! Beats scrolling though hundreds of Google images.)

Teacher's Pet [Elvis] by PurpleKorea134

You all remember the music teacher that told Elvis that he has no aptitude for singing? Well, in this story, this teacher happens to be a pretty young woman of twenty-five, who Elvis instantly starts crushing on in his senior year of high school. Miss Abigail Thatcher didn't plan on teaching at a high school, but she figured that teaching people relatively close to her age would help her connect to them more. There's a problem with teaching boys of this age, though... feelings could rage. And not just on their end. There is this shy, handsome young man with a unique name eyeing Abigail during every music class with those blue eyes of his, and she can't shake off what those long stares make her feel. Despite his love of music, he's failing the class, so Abigail tries to help him. She gets involved in his life... a little too intimately. She sees that he has some talent, mainly in guitar playing, but his singing... well, she has to be honest with him, but she's afraid that she crushed his dreams while doing so. At least it could shut down whatever "thing" that's going on with them.

Girl of Mine by SiljeWrites

All stories, good or bad, begin at the right time and place. The night Rosalie Wood's boyfriend of one year proposed to her during an Elvis Presley concert in 1956, she went from thinking she knew everything, to knowing nothing. Faced with Wendell's infidelity, she soon finds herself consumed by the anxious, unknown road ahead. But a path is paved as Elvis joins her journey at the height of his infamous criticism. Beneath the dazzling spotlight, he battles the pressure of public scrutiny, unflattering nicknames, rules to follow or break, and the growing disconnection between the man and the image. As Rosalie becomes a steady presence in Elvis' life, helping him navigate his struggles and love life, she's forced to confront her own. Their growing bond, rooted in trust and friendship, lets them discover solace where they thought there was none. This is the start of a book series about personal growth, staying true to yourself, and the many challenges we stumble upon throughout human life, no matter who we are. Dear Reader: Girl of Mine is rooted in its time, delving into both the life and challenges of the 1950s. Along the way, it speaks of sensitive themes such as se*ual assault, violence, substance abuse, mental health, and racism. While these themes are heavy, they are included with the purpose to reflect, to educate, spread awareness and improve one's mental health.

Love You To Life ✓ by lemmekeepreading

Bringing the dead back to life? It was possible. A story about undying love. "All I had wanted was to attend this sick college party, when my best friend Ethan and his twin-sister Dakota persuaded me to watch them bring Elvis back to life. What I got instead is a girl from the 40's "How did I end up here?" She threw in. "Good question!" I nodded, pointing at her. "That snoring guy right there invented a 'life-serum' and he intended to bring Elvis Presley back to life, but then an accident occured and, well, you were there," I explained. "Don't worry, I was an accident too." She started laughing, and it instantly brought a smile to my lips." (Written from a guy's perspective) THIS ONE IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT FROM MY USUAL WRITING STYLE. IT'S A CUTE LITTLE STORY AND I TREAT IT AS SUCH.
