‘Off Campus’ fan fictions

Secret relationships

SPOILERS AHEAD! For those who have read the Off Campus series, you’ll recall that Beau Maxwell tragically died in the third book, The Score. But the fan fictionThe Maxwell Maneuver by McLaren_Senna on Wattpad dives into a world where Beau lives and gets involved in a secret relationship with his best friend’s younger sister. 

The description for this one reads, “Dean Di Laurentis has two major rules in life: win at all costs, and keep his Briar Hockey teammates far away from his little sister, Jade. But Beau Maxwell has been secretly breaking the rules for years.”

Of course, Dean doesn’t have a younger sister named Jade in the original series, but the beauty of this fan fiction is that it explores an entirely different world. Dive into this on Wattpad now!

Best friend’s brother

Not an Option by megannamaria on Wattpad follows Garrett Graham’s younger sister, Ellie, a sophomore on Briar University’s soccer team. For her entire life, Ellie has been living in Garrett’s shadow and has been nothing more than a little sister to his best friend, John Logan. 

When Ellie and Logan begin unexpectedly running into each other around campus, their usual friendly banter gradually turns into something more—something neither of them can ignore. The problem? Garrett has no interest in seeing his best friend date his little sister, leaving Ellie and Logan caught between their growing feelings and his disapproval. Eventually, pretending nothing has changed becomes impossible.

The fan fiction description reads, “And the question becomes: how long can Ellie and Logan keep pretending nothing is changing, before Garrett notices that everything already has?”

Second-chance romance

The fan fiction, Did You Ever Think of Me? by misssophiachase on Archive of Our Own, dives into the story of Dean Di Laurentis and Allie Hayes, only it’s been seven years since they’ve seen each other. 

The description reads, “What if Allie and Dean never reunited after the bar fight at the end of Season 1? They go their separate ways only to reconnect as maid of honor and best man for Hannah and Garrett’s wedding seven years later. Will being in such close proximity after so many years apart force them to finally face up to their unresolved feelings?”

Diverting from Allie and Dean’s real story—which you can read about in The ScoreDid You Ever Think of Me? explores their relationship if they’d never resolved their problems after Off Campus Season 1.
