I Hate Football Players 2 (under editing)
Finding relationships is easy... Keeping them is the real game. That's what I'm learning in my first one. It's not easy. Our rival schools are an hour apart, my best friend's turning secretive, my parents are controlling, and my brother's still an ass, gearing toward winning the state championship, and still doesn't like my boyfriend, Logan. I get it, they're rivals, and I kinda feel like Logan's team might be better but this season will decide. Being the star rival quarterback's girlfriend brings big rumors and big drama, especially when elements of our pasts resurface - his jaded ex whatevers, and the secrets I thought I'd buried and moved beyond. All of this while I just want to figure out where to go for college and what for. Some relationships will always stand the test of time and distance, while others crumble by the time the high school dust settles. I hope Logan and I are in the former because I'm falling hard for him. Really hard. Forever love hard. Story is ongoing with frequent updates. Please add it to your reading list!

A Change of Heart
When someone believes that they know what they want, sometimes the human heart asks for so much more, even if they just don't know it yet. For as long as he could remember, he was always the person who believed that he didn't need anyone to be there with him to get through the days. Now, seventeen-year-old Evermore student Zak-Neo Amberwell still chooses to think that way. With his stone-cold glares and blunt comments, he knows that he will never find anyone who would be in their right mind to spend a day with him and consider him a "friend," and he is willing to accept this as a simple fact. For as long as he could remember, he was always the person that he felt no one wanted to be around, afraid he stuck out in a bad way. All Tai Reed wanted, as an Evermore Secondary High School student at seventeen, was to have a friend that he could spend his time with. However, with his love of anime and questionable choices, he is afraid that he will never be able to meet someone that would enjoy his company. When Zak-Neo has a run in with Tai, the two learn something that they never thought would be possible. For Zak-Neo, it really is possible for someone like him to find people that can understand the drawbacks in his mannerisms, even if it means meeting a unique variety of individuals who are willing to do so. For Tai, it is possible for him to find someone who will stand by his side no matter what and is willing to support him through whatever troubles he has, even if it means he has to confront his own emotions to keep these friendships. This is meant to be a coming-of-age fictional story about two people who meet for the first time, finding comfort and companionship in each other, providing support for one another through their toughest moments of hardship, and realizing that what they thought they wanted could grow into so much more; that is the wonder of the human heart. ***This story is currently a work-in-progress | May contain swearing***

Connections | ✔️
[COMPLETE] Sorry this may be cringe, it was written very long ago A seemingly ordinary, working college girl meets a cool, undeniably sexy boy with millions of followers at his feet. How will their completely different lives allow, or prevent them from getting what they want? Expect some drama, flirty lines, steamy scenes, funny best friends, and perhaps, an overall epic love connection. ~ Carter came around the corner as his eyes darkened with a predatory gaze. Oh no. He took a step forward, minimalizing the distance with every dominating stride, as I froze in my spot. My breath hitched as his arms finally encircled my waist and his eyes locked with mine. In one swift motion, he flipped my body so my back was pressed against his chest and hands gripped the curve of my hips. "What game are you trying to play at Valerie?" he spoke in a husky voice. Goosebumps danced along my skin as his hot breath fanned against the shell of my ear and his fingertips lit a trail of blazing heat along the length of my arm. Mentally shaking myself from the trance of that which is Carter Bryson, I tilted my head towards him and whispered; "One where you'll lose." Quickly escaping his hold on me before the tension became unbearable, I spun on my heel to face him and slowly backed away towards the exit. "Good luck though." I added mischievously. With a smirk and a devilish glint in his eyes that could even give hell a run for its money, he replied; "I'm not a player though, baby. I'm the gamemaker." ~ ❗️Mature content.

Long overdue
"Do others also have a crush they obsess over for four years, even when he completely ignores them? Probably not... at least not if they're sane." Natalie is thrilled to finally leave high school behind and start a new chapter in her life. She promises herself she won't be the same dumb teenager, obsessing over boys-specifically, one tall basketball player who never even spared her a glance. What began as an intense crush had slowly twisted into self-doubt and resentment over the years, as each ignored glance chipped away at her confidence. Now, she vows to cherish herself more, to be confident, and to never change for anyone else's approval. But what happens when the same guy she grew to hate, after four years of trying and failing to get his attention, ends up at the same university and, for the first time, calls her name?
