Bad luck and a busted nose bring him to Eugene, Oregon, where he finds unlikely friends, work, and even a new purpose. But day by day he’s gaining something else: courage to play from the heart, no matter what the result might be…

Internal Hatred, Eternal Desire
Desire and hate aren't as opposing as people think. They can often mix. Kieran Wayne was a very irritated and moody teenager. He was constantly annoyed by all the attention he was always given, due to his striking beauty. However lately he was been extra annoyed with everyone; with soccer getting serious, modeling taking up more time, and senior year activities. But what was really making him so agitated? Ryan King. Ryan king was a friendly and extroverted person. He loves attention and socializing. Even though he should be thinking of only football, his mind does often trace back Kieran. He has hated Kieran forever. He hates how perfect of a life Kieran seems to have, and he especially loathes how Kieran takes it all for granted. After years of a back and fourth war between the two, their hatred final reaches a max. And a new feeling becomes discovered... desire? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ryan had finally realized why Kieran was acting so unusual. Why his hair looked so chaotic. Why he had a deep pink reflecting on his pale skin. Why his eyes were dark and peering through his heavy black eyelashes. Why his breathing was making his whole chest move swiftly up and down. Why his mouth was slightly opened. Why he looked like he was begging for a cavernous desire. All of a sudden there was not even an ounce of hate in Ryan's body. The usual perfect, conceited, model was begging. Or as many would call it ... submitting. This hypnotized Ryan. Ryan wanted to see more of this side from Kieran. He suddenly had the urge to play. He got close to Kieran's ear. With his breath tickling Kieran's skin, he said, "You enjoying this, Wayne?" in a husky voice.
