Caught In the Storm (boyxboy)
A rivalry about a decade old plagues the halls of Regis High School. Soccer players versus football players. The hate for each other runs deep, and it has gotten so bad, it is strictly forbidden for anyone on either teams to be friends. But what about lovers? After Ashton Little, soccer goalie, is forced into a reckless game of Dare against the football team, all he can think about is their quarterback, Daniel "Danny" Fisher. And regardless of the strained tension and unbridled hate Danny seems to have for him, Ashton can't help but fall for those cloudy blue eyes. Danny Fisher isn't gay. He isn't. There's no way. Then...why can't he stop thinking about a boy? And Ashton Little, his sworn enemy at that! Every night, Ashton's face, his voice, his body, haunts his dreams, and he feels like he's losing his mind. How could he have possibly fallen for the bitter midget with a bad attitude and a serious case of sarcasm? He wants to ignore his feelings, but after getting stuck in detention with the very source of his distress, he can't help but notice that there is a lot more to Ashton than what he thought. And it pisses him off, because it makes it harder to stay away. And to prove to himself and his team that Ashton is nothing but another soccer prick. Spin-off of Symphony of the Words Unspoken. It stands on its own, but feel free to read Symphony :)Complete
