Swimming Stories

Senior year at Crestwood High is supposed to be all about college prep, sports, and making memories... but for Elara, strange occurrences are making everything feel off. Flickering lights, sudden déjà vus, and moments no one else seems to notice are leaving her on edge. With her best friend Brielle by her side, Elara dives into Sports Week-a 2-3 day event full of competition, teamwork, and adrenaline-to find normalcy. But as the games heat up, so do the mysteries surrounding her... and Elara begins to realize that some things can't be ignored and make her wonder if this week will be unforgettable... or dangerous.

Two boys discovering how love can be through sports, love and friendship. ---- It starts with ten minutes before track practice, in company of the boy Ezekiel sees everyday, everywhere since so many years. Ten minutes to know each other, to watch, to notice. Ten minutes to share looks, to hide smiles and suppress laughter. Ten minutes to hold hands, yet to fight with words. Ten minutes for the other boy to find reasons to hate Ezekiel. The thing is, this deal was supposed to last a few days, a few weeks at most. Now, it's been months.

ဆယ်ကျော်သက်ကောင်မလေးတစ်ယောက်ရဲ့ရေထုထဲမှအချစ်ပုံပြင်

Before the tripods, Jaime Irvine was just trying to drop a second off her 200 IM. She woke at 5:00 AM. She ate pancakes her mother made. She sat next to Lauren Aguilar in the cafeteria and complained about taper madness. She tied her hair only for races and wore her glasses everywhere else. She had a state championship. A swim banquet where she held Lauren's hand under the table. Three arcade outings that felt like forever. One night between prelims and finals where she sang karaoke and almost felt invincible. That was 2025. Summer 2026: The aliens don't care about her personal best. Three legs. Heat rays. Red weed in the Mississippi. Jaime and Lauren have one advantage: Jaime knows how to hold her breath. The Last Flip Turn is not a hero story. It is a survivor story. It follows two teenage girls through the ordinary wreckage of junior year and into an extraordinary nightmare. There are no generals, no speeches, no last-minute rescue. Only a swimmer, her best friend, and the slow, terrible realization that the only thing keeping them alive is everything they already learned in the pool. Breathe. Flip. Push off. Repeat. Inspired by War of the Worlds (2005).

Trigger Warning: mentions blood, death, not too graphic. The Fraternity of Adventurers recieve an anonymous request to search through inhabited islands with the promise of payment and treasure, if luck permits. Kayla and her father search the islands, while their past begins to show through dreams and memories. She figures out the cause for her hydrophobic tendencies and finds a way to heal. Together, they discover a found family, hidden secrets in caves, and lost hope.

Two years ago, Kate Sinclair walked away from the pool. After a lifetime of 30-hour training weeks and gold medals, she traded her swimsuit for a camera to satisfy her father's demands for academic perfection. Now an eighteen-year-old focused on architectural photography, Kate believes that the "naive" girl who dreamed of a professional swimming career is long gone. But the past has a way of resurfacing. When a photography project forces her back to the water's edge, the familiar scent of chlorine and the sight of her old rival reignite a hunger she thought she'd suppressed. Suddenly, Kate is faced with a life-changing opportunity: a chance to pursue the elite Redwood Sports School (RSS)-the very dream she once tore off her bedroom walls. But achieving that dream? Kate's got her work cut out for her.

This is a story about the weight of gold, the silence of the deep, and the courage it takes to resurface.

Est gave him everything without being asked. William didn't notice at first... until it began to matter. #williamest story

They trained for speed. Now silence is the only medal that matters. Zoe Petersen lives for the roar of the crowd at state championships. But on June 18, 2020, the world goes quiet-forever. Blind creatures that hunt by sound turn every whisper into a death sentence. Stranded during a road trip with her two best friends Anita and Kreena in Colorado, Zoe must use her swimmer's instincts to survive. Water masks sound. Breath control saves lives. And the open road west is a gauntlet of broken glass, falling twigs, and the shriek of angels. Their only hope? Flee the mainland. Reach the islands. And pray the ocean is quiet enough.

Un'accusa infamante. Un esilio dorato. Un nemico che respira il tuo stesso ossigeno. Maya era la stella nascente del nuoto in Arizona, finché lo scandalo non l'ha travolta. Incastrata per doping e rissa, è diventata una macchia sulla carriera politica di suo padre, un segreto da nascondere a migliaia di chilometri di distanza. Viene spedita alla St. Vortex Academy, un college d'élite arroccato sulle scogliere del Puget Sound, a Seattle. Un luogo dove i rampolli delle famiglie più potenti del mondo imparano a dominare, protetti da una nebbia perenne e da mura di vetro e acciaio. Lo slogan del college recita "Per mare ad victoriam", ma per Maya la vittoria è l'ultimo dei pensieri: lei vuole solo sparire. Ma alla St. Vortex le ombre sono più profonde del mare e il re indiscusso di quell'abisso è Kai Vance. Kai è il capitano della squadra di nuoto, un ragazzo di ghiaccio che sembra fatto della stessa sostanza della tempesta di Seattle. Lui non vuole Maya nel suo territorio. La vede per quello che è: una minaccia, una bugiarda, carne fresca da distruggere. Ma se Kai fosse l'unico a capire la verità dietro il suo scandalo? Se l'odio spietato che provano l'uno per l'altra fosse solo l'unico modo per non annegare nell'attrazione che li consuma? Tra corsie di piscine olimpioniche e segreti inconfessabili, Maya dovrà decidere se continuare a scappare o se lasciare che sia proprio il suo peggior nemico a tenerla a galla.

Sixteen-year-old Grace Hill has spent her life following the black line at the bottom of the pool. Between early morning practices, state championships, and a growing friendship with three girls she met through swimming-Rika, Zoey, and Wrianna-her world is small, structured, and safe. Then the world ends. A fast-moving virus sweeps across the country in the summer of 2026, turning the infected into something faster and more terrifying than anything Grace has ever faced. The military holds longer than anyone expected, carving out walled safe zones in cities like Manhattan and San Francisco. But Fairport, New York, is on its own. Grace's training has prepared her for more than swim meets. Her endurance, her breath control, her ability to push through the burn-these are the things that keep her alive as she navigates the ruins of her hometown, searching for her family and for the three girls who became her anchors in a world that no longer exists. This is not a story about how the world ended. This is a story about four girls who refused to let it end them.
