badboy band bandgeek cheerleader football highschool marchingband music nerd sports wattys2018

Erica Howard is the drum major of one fantastic marching band. Unfortunately, no one else at Southeast High seems to know it. The school's below-average performance on the football field has caused its students to lose enthusiasm for the once-electric rush of the Friday Night Lights- and that means no one is watching her band's amazing halftime shows. 

But when a groan-inducing group project finds her paired up with the goofy, muscular quarterback of the football team and the too-cool captain of the cheerleading squad, Erica is forced to realize that the members of the marching band aren't the only ones suffering from Southeast High's lack of athletic enthusiasm- and that all three of them might have something to gain from working together. 

This tale of finding love, friendship, and pride where you least expect will warm your heart and chill your arms, just like the best Friday nights in autumn always do.All Rights Reserved

Once When You Were Mine by writermaggie

High school in the early 90s: it was before cell phones and social media, but the problems were the same. How do you get the guy you're interested in to notice you? What happens if you fall in love with your best friend? Why does physics class keep factoring into your love life? This novella is loosely based on my own high school experiences... but sort of an alternate version of them. You can only make one set of choices in life, so it's fun to explore what could have been - but wasn't - in fiction. Also, set in 1991-92, this is kind of a period piece now! In some ways it's a love letter to the teen books I read back in the 80s and 90s, in particular those by Ellen Conford and Paula Danzinger. I hope you enjoy it. This story was featured on Wattpad in 2016.

Chemical Waves by StephG34

In a small town where social classes divide high school halls, Aaron, a rebellious musician with tattoos and a troubled home life, unexpectedly collides with Hannah, the picture-perfect cheer captain with a seemingly flawless reputation. What starts as a contentious pairing in science class evolves into a compelling journey of self-discovery, trust, and connection. As Aaron and Hannah are drawn into each other's worlds, they uncover the cracks beneath their polished exteriors. For Hannah, it's the pressure of being the daughter of an overbearing, perfectionist mother. For Aaron, it's the weight of a dysfunctional family and the constant pull to escape through music. Their growing bond sparks anger in Hannah's possessive ex-boyfriend, Matt, whose violent tendencies threaten to destroy everything. When Matt's jealousy erupts into an assault that leaves Aaron hospitalized, Hannah must confront her feelings, her fears, and her mother's disapproval to stand by Aaron's side. Together, they navigate the consequences of their choices, finding solace in each other as they plan for futures far beyond the confines of their small town.
