Alyssa Johnson or Ally is a regular high school student who just entered her sophomore year. She's living life normally, but she is also a "virtuoso" as you might call it at playing the flute. She has played in many orchestras and is in some of the top bands in the state of New Jersey. She has to overcome plenty of challenges to becoming one of the best players she can be, and some of these challenges include her personal life and high school life. Can this "meant to be virtuoso" student make it to the top or will she crumble?

Study of a Girl
Possessing a strong will and fiery nature, Alyssa is the kind of person who draws others in - she's the eye of the storm. How does her perception of herself contrast to those who are closest to her? I wrote the story 'Drive' as a stand-alone, until someone suggested that the character of Alyssa could be interesting enough to further develop. Thus, I came up with a few more tales, as told from different perspectives, which when combined help paint more of a picture of Alyssa. 'Study of a Girl' is kind of a reflection on human behaviour, personality, and questions some common values and ways of thinking that we can exhibit. I hope you enjoy reading!Complete
Because Of You ✔️
❝ I don't have time to waste thinking about a boy who will only destroy my future,❞ I say getting closer to him with every word, maybe a little too close. I feel his breath fanning my face. He licks his lip as a sneaky smirk slips onto them, his greenish-gray eyes shift between my lips and eyes, making my traitorous breath hitch. ❝ You saying you think about me, Torres? ❞ ~ Mariana Torres is the first in her family to go to college. Being the first in a Latinx family comes with more pressure and stress than usual, something Mariana is used to. She wants nothing but to make her family proud, even if it means pursuing something she's not interested in. Now heading off to UCLA on a full-ride with her best friend, she's finally getting the chance to get a strong education and become a successful doctor. But every perfect plan has bumps in the road, and this one just happens to be a beautiful one. Aiden Grey lives life like he's dying. He parties, drinks, smokes, burns through his money, and sleeps around with every girl at UCLA. He isn't attracting the ladies by being a brooding bad boy, but by being so carefree you feel your problems slip away when you're with him. Too bad Mariana can't afford for her problems to slip away. *** Warning: Book contains swearing and mature content. WARNING...
