Flowers for Football
(This was my very first story so I can acknowledge that there are some really cringy parts-aka I will be rewriting/revising very soon!) Asher King's life has revolved around putting up an involuntary mask to hide his true self. With successful parents boasting about his 'pretend' success, Asher feels as though the life he is living was never his to begin with, and a home of happiness is far out of reach. While the luxurious life is envied by most, Asher is only followed by social anxiety and suffocation in a life he doesn't want. The only place where he feels like he can genuinely escape is the little flower shop down the street, where he doesn't expect to find the school's star football player. Leo Gaines is Greenville's golden boy who is destined for success in the NFL. One would think that Leo would do anything to keep a squeaky clean reputation, but Leo would do anything to live a life for himself. Everyone seems to love the confidence he oozes but the subtle respect he always values. However, one thing doesn't fit the agenda: he is still coming to terms with his bisexuality. After multiple encounters with the mysterious boy from the flower shop he works at, Leo soon realizes that he can't help falling for the flower boy. Can Leo find the relationship of his dreams while trying to find a future in a world that exudes masculinity? Will Asher finally find authenticity that will break him free from the marionette puppet he is staged to play? Find out in "Flowers for Football."Complete
ETHEREAL
UNEDITED |Freya Livingston| has always liked being alone it's not that nobody wanted to be her friend it's more that she didn't want to be bothered. Her carefree attitude and effortless beauty has everyone wanting to be associated with the silver haired stunner. The only thing that seems to capture her undivided attention is her most beloved item, that darn sketchbook. Nobody knows what she's sketching with her delicate hands but they bet it's as beautiful as her. How will she adjust when she moves school for her senior year. [Luca Santiago] the definition of a golden boy. Being the captain of the soccer team and having top grades he's the boy your parents wishes you take home. Though being a top scoring student, he's anything but a nerd. With his seemingly perfect reputation and not to forget handsome features, he's quite the playboy. He gets everything he wants within a blink of an eye and he's everyone's idol. The only thing that prevents him from completely ruling the school is a certain leather jacket wearing, motorcycle riding guy, but he's planning on changing that soon. {Axel Andres} the certain leather jacket wearing and motorcycle riding guy. One look at him and you can tell he's up to no good, but then another look at him and you may fall in love. Which I highly suggest on not doing because he's not the commitment type. He barely even hangs out around anybody other than his own circle of friends. His cold exterior and icy glares make it hard for anyone to ever approach him and if they do then they usually end up regretting it. He's worked for everything he has which is not that much but he'll give hell to anyone who questions it. The story of a girl who wanted nothing more than to just be left alone being dragged in the very middle of rivalry she didn't ask for and she doesn't know it yet but she's the winning prize. A story about love and loss, rekindling old friendships and making new ones.Complete

Innocence
"So goddamn tiny," He muttered to himself, making a blush rise to Freya's cheeks. "I am not," She defended herself quietly. "You're just huge." ~🎀~ Freya Karol was the epitome of innocence. She was small, sheltered, and fiercely protected by her millionare father. Going out after 8pm was a no. Drinking alcohol or doing drugs was a no. Skipping school without reason was a no. And boys were a big no. But if there was one thing that attracted Falcon Anders, it was innocence. ~🎀~ "All the synonyms of perfect. This book is absolutely beautiful, the plot, the writing and the characters are so addicting. Literally fell in love within reading the first paragraph of the book. I honestly truly hope you update more often, because you're very talented and this book is literally beautiful💙" - Najma Copyright © 2019 N.E. Lorimer All rights reserved.Complete
