In the thick of Penn State University's football frenzy, Nadine Baker, a freshman manager, grumbles through her duties with fierce determination, her guarded heart a fortress against past disappointments. Enter Daniel Scott, a sophomore linebacker notorious for his charm and playboy antics. To his annoyance, he finds himself inexplicably drawn to Nadine, sensing a connection that clashes with his usual expectations. When he tries to make a move, she shoots him down without hesitation.

Unwilling to give up, Daniel suggests a practical arrangement amid the chaos of championship season: a two-bedroom apartment off-campus, promising her a break from the dorm madness. Nadine hesitates, rolling her eyes, but eventually agrees-after all, independence sounds nice, even if she can't stand the idea of living with him.

As they begrudgingly navigate the trials of cohabitation, Daniel's cocky facade slowly begins to crack Nadine's defenses. Between the ups and downs of the football season, they find themselves wrapped up in both the pressure to win and the annoyance of each other's presence. Their shared experiences forge a bond that proves that real victory isn't just about scoring on the field; it's about finding unexpected solaceAll Rights Reserved

You Are the Shell to My Tortoise | ✓ by LotteStarburst

Nolan, an unapproachable guy who ignores the existence of all his schoolmates, sleeps in all of his classes. Normally, this wouldn't be Chelsea Arnold's problem-she does her best to pay attention in class and attends gym like a good, normal student. Unfortunately, she just so happens to be his assigned desk partner in many classes. She's frequently forced to wake him in English class and ends up earning the unofficial title of Nolan's Wake-up Alarm-a title that nobody in the entire school covets. The last thing she wants is to interact with him more than she absolutely has to. One day, their gym teacher sends her to bring him back to class, which he always skips for some reason. When she accidentally shines her flashlight in his sleeping face, it triggers a chain of events that gradually intertwines their lives together. It's hard to be a normal student when you start befriending the school oddball. It doesn't help that he has more secrets than the Big Ben has stairs. ----- Complete.
