Paige Bueckers has always played with the world watching. But behind the fame and pressure, she's still trying to figure out who she is outside of basketball.

When a chance encounter sparks something new-something real-Paige is forced to navigate feelings that don't fit neatly into a playbook.

With unexpected friendships, chaotic siblings, and late-night conversations that linger longer than they should, Front Paige explores what happens when you finally let someone see past the spotlight

Sundown with You by paigebueckerxfem
54 parts Complete
As a rookie for the Dallas Wings, Paige Bueckers was ready for pressure, competition, and a spotlight brighter than Texas sun. What she didn't expect was her-Magnolia "Maggie" Whitmore, a true country girl with dirt on her boots, a heart full of Southern grace, and a Nashville accent that could stop time. Born in Tennessee, schooled in Kentucky, and rooted in the red dirt of Texas, Maggie runs her family's farm by day and barrels through rodeos on the weekends. She's also the childhood best friend of Wings coach Chris Knolches-and his secret weapon: the girl who babysits his wild nieces, makes the best peach cobbler this side of the Mississippi, and has every one of his players wrapped around her finger the minute she walks into the gym. When Maggie shows up mid-practice in worn jeans and muddy boots to hand Coach Chris his forgotten clipboard, the Wings' starting five-Paige, DiJonai Carrington, Arike Ogunbowale, Maddy Siegrist, and NaLyssa Smith-turn into a bunch of starstruck troublemakers, all sighs and side-eyes over her honeyed drawl and easy smile. But it's Paige who can't stop watching. What begins with teasing banter and stolen glances under golden skies slowly grows into something real-a connection rooted deeper than either of them expected. But with fame chasing Paige and responsibilities tethering Maggie to the land she loves, they'll have to figure out if love has a place when the lights go down. Because some stories don't start in the city. Some start at sundown. ⸻
When I was Little, I Promised to be Kind | Aubrey Griffin  by ellielovesuconnWBB
56 parts Complete Mature
She grew up in a house built on chaos-screaming behind locked doors, bloodstained towels, broken bottles. Her mother self-harmed in front of her. Her father drifted in and out, never staying long enough to protect her from anything. So, she made herself small. Gentle. Apologetic. She promised herself one thing: never become like them. Be kind. Be quiet. Be safe. Now at UConn, she keeps her head down. She volunteers at the library, wears soft cardigans, and flinches when voices get too loud. She rarely talks, never argues, and says sorry even when she's hurting. Most people think she's just shy. But Aubrey Griffin notices more-the tight way her jaw locks when someone mentions family, the way her hands tremble when she's overwhelmed, the mask of calm that slips when no one's watching. Their friendship is slow, warm, and full of soft moments. Aubrey becomes her safe place, the one who sees her without judgment. But as the bond grows, so does the fear-what if she loses this too? The girl keeps secrets: her mom's in and out of rehab, her dad still calls when he needs money, and sometimes she disappears just to scream where no one can hear. Aubrey knows something's off, but never pushes. Until jealousy creeps in. A teammate flirts with Aubrey, just enough to make the girl feel like she's in the way. Instead of speaking up, she shuts down-answering texts less, avoiding eye contact, pulling away because she doesn't know how to hold on to good things. It's the first time the girl cries in someone's arms and feels safe. Slowly, she lets herself be loved. Aubrey becomes not just her first love, but the first person to ever make her feel like she's allowed to take up space. And one day, when she finally introduces Aubrey to her little sister-the one she used to hide in closets while chaos raged around them-Aubrey brings flowers and holds her hand like a promise: you're not alone anymore.
