Jeremiah

Jeremiah, captain of the school’s football team, was more than just strong and talented—he was a rising star. Big teams were already watching him, and every girl blushed when he walked by. Yet despite his popularity, he never had a girlfriend. Jeremiah took the game too seriously to waste time on shallow flings. His friends, however, kept teasing him: it was time to win over the most admired girl at school—the cheer captain. She was beautiful, brilliant, and sharp-witted, a girl no one could outsmart. The whole campus whispered that if the two of them ever got together, they would rule the school. Their story began at a wild party. By chance, Jeremiah and the girl struck up a conversation. To their surprise, they enjoyed each other’s company. Beneath the surface, both burned with passion and ambition. One talk led to another, and soon they found themselves inseparable—campus royalty, admired by all. But when two strong personalities collide, sparks fly. Neither Jeremiah nor the girl liked to back down and their fiery tempers often led to arguments. Still, their love always proved stronger than any fight. The night before Jeremiah’s most important game, however, their quarrel was worse than usual. The next day, while the entire school cheered for him, the girl sat on the bleachers with a lollipop, refusing to join the celebration. Jeremiah gave the performance of his life, won the match and heard the roar of hundreds of voices—but not hers. That, he couldn’t ignore. Smiling to himself, he walked straight to her, grabbed her hand and pulled her playfully into the storage room. Her heart raced, but there was no fear, Jeremiah had never hurt her, and never would. What he wanted was to teach her a sweet lesson: that love was too powerful to hide behind stubborn pride. In the quiet of that room, his eyes sparkled with mischief. He knew the truth—this girl was the only one strong enough to match him, in every fight, in every victory, and in every heartbeat.
