Birds of a feather- Paige Bueckers by dakotaxpaige

In the fast-paced world of college athletics and media, two women are about to discover that the line between friendship and love is blurrier than they ever imagined. Paige is a driven basketball player with a dream of making it to the pros. Every shot she takes, every game she plays, is a step closer to turning her passion into reality. However, the pressure of balancing college life, a rigorous sport, and her ambitions leaves little room for anything else until Dakota enters her life. Dakota, a sports media major, is determined to carve out her path in the world of sports journalism. With a sharp eye for storytelling and a drive to succeed, she's determined to make a name for herself. Her connection to Paige starts as nothing more than a friendship, forged in the shared space of their dorm room and mutual respect's dreams. But as they spend more time together, an undeniable tension builds, and neither of them can ignore it. As Paige chases her basketball dreams and Dakota hustles to establish herself in a competitive field, their paths grow increasingly intertwined. What begins as a spark of friendship slowly kindles into something deeper. Amid late-night study sessions, on-court victories, and the pressures of college life, they begin to navigate the complex terrain of love, ambition, and self-discovery. But as their feelings for each other intensify, they must learn to balance their evolving relationship with their dreams. Can their love survive the challenges of college life, or will their ambitions pull them in separate directions? After each short chapter, a song that correlates with what happened will be at the end to listen to, this offers a deeper understanding of how the story can be perceived. Each chapter, as well as the story title, relates to a song. Both short stories and songs are an art form and are so intertwined that is why we decided to create the story this way. This is a short story, so it is a very quick read.

Once When You Were Mine by writermaggie

High school in the early 90s: it was before cell phones and social media, but the problems were the same. How do you get the guy you're interested in to notice you? What happens if you fall in love with your best friend? Why does physics class keep factoring into your love life? This novella is loosely based on my own high school experiences... but sort of an alternate version of them. You can only make one set of choices in life, so it's fun to explore what could have been - but wasn't - in fiction. Also, set in 1991-92, this is kind of a period piece now! In some ways it's a love letter to the teen books I read back in the 80s and 90s, in particular those by Ellen Conford and Paula Danzinger. I hope you enjoy it. This story was featured on Wattpad in 2016.

Falling For Chemistry by verenawrites01

JULIET Starting junior year at Rosewood High, I expected to lose myself in textbooks, science experiments, and the comforting quiet of the library. What I didn't expect was to be paired with Alex Rhodes-the school's star quarterback and every girl's dream-in chemistry class. Alex is charming, confident, and completely out of my league. When he offers to study together, I'm wary. How could someone like him be interested in someone like me? But as we dive into chemical reactions, I discover there's more to Alex than his athletic prowess and easy smile. Beneath the surface, he's smart, curious, and utterly captivating. I should keep my distance, but every time his hand brushes against mine or he leans in close to explain a concept, I feel a thrill that I can't ignore. He's a magnetic force, and I'm helpless against the attraction brewing between us. ALEX Junior year means football, friends, and maintaining my reputation as Rosewood High's golden boy. What it doesn't mean is falling for a girl like Juliet Mayfield-quiet, brilliant, and completely different from anyone I've ever known. Assigned as her lab partner, I'm instantly intrigued. Juliet is everything I didn't know I wanted: passionate, insightful, and with a hidden fire that draws me in. Our chemistry goes beyond the classroom, sparking a connection I can't fucking ignore. Her shyness is endearing, her intelligence enthralling. The more time I spend with her, the more I crave her presence, her touch, her everything. But being with Juliet means challenging expectations, breaking the mold I've been cast in. And damn, I want her. I want her in ways that make my heart pound and my body ache. I want her laughter, her moans, her whispers of my name. I want all of her, and I don't give a damn about the consequences.
