Beneath The Bleachers
All Characters in these stories have names of people I know ( this does not mean any of the couples are true )
Dominique Wills has always ruled the basketball court-fast feet, sharper instincts, and the unbeatable duo he forms with his best friend, Jasleen. But just as the school year kicks off, something-or someone-throws him completely off his game.
Martha Desrosiers is new in town, quiet but bold in her own way, and totally uninterested in popularity or school drama. The moment Dominique sees her across the court, everything changes. He's hooked-and Jasleen, forever the wingwoman, is determined to help him win Martha over.
As Dominique balances basketball, friendships, and feelings he's never faced before, he realizes falling for someone isn't as simple as making the perfect shot. It takes patience, vulnerability, and sometimes, missing the basket completely before finding your rhythm.
Set in the same timeline as Until The Final Whistle and Skates And Second Chances this story captures what it means to fall-awkwardly, suddenly, and all at once.
