The freshman starting Running Back for the perennial powerhouse USC Trojans is dating the new freshman cheerleader. They're high school sweethearts. She is a dime piece. Their sex life is phenomenal; real experimental if you catch my drift. The Running Back is very happy. The cheerleader is very committed after being together with him for so long but feels like she is missing something in her life.
During one of the cheerleader initiation meetings, the cheerleaders decide to make the freshmen attend a gay and lesbian coming out party at the campus center. At the meeting, the freshman cheerleader runs into a friend of hers that she has class with. Because the initiation's intent was for the cheerleaders to pretend that they are gay, the freshman cheerleader must convince her friend that she is a lesbian. The friend has no trouble believing this since they were at a gay and lesbian coming out party. After they get to talking, they decide to leave and go to a party. Upon arrival, the freshman cheerleader realizes this is another party with lesbians. Because of her fear of losing her lesbian friend for lying as well as facing the consequences of not playing the role of a lesbian, she reluctantly goes on.
Drinks start going down like water and body shots are now the center of attention. About the same time she begins seeing double, the lesbian friend asks if she'd like to head back to her place for a night capper. The drunken freshman sees no harm in this, forgetting about the "mask" she's been wearing all night.
Back at the lesbian girl's dorm, the two enjoy buttery nipples. Not literally, but the shots. Then, the lesbian made her move, sliding a little closer on the bed to the cheerleader before brushing the hair out from in front of her face to go in for the kiss. The cheerleader, taken by complete surprise of the sudden move, instinctually slapped her and stood up. The two stood speechless, staring each other down as if in an old western shoot out. Then the cheerleader pounced on the lesbian and did the hibbidy dibbidy.
The next day, leaving the girl's dorm in the morning, the cheerleader was seen by some of her older cheerleader peers. Being jealous of the freshman for dating the star running back, they quickly ran to him with the gossip. As the story unfolded, the running back was clearly filling with anger. He realized he could never hit a girl but revenge was inevitable. Being a big, tough, football player, the running back went straight to the editor of the school paper. He gave him an article he wrote and told him the consequences would be severe should this not end up in tomorrow's paper.
The article explained how the lesbian had three STDs, was an illegal immigrant, and cheated in all her classes by sleeping with the female professors. The girl's reputation was ruined. It was published on the front page with a big picture under the heading "Wouldn't Touch It with a 10 Ft. Pole."
The girl, seeking revenge on the running back, decided to publish a story of her own. Her story told of the running back's use of steroids, Viagra, and sexually experimenting with men. With this news, the running back's career was ended due to violation of NCAA regulations and he was ridiculed all through campus.
Finally, the cheerleader decided to call both the girl and the running back to come to her dorm room at the same time without either one knowing. There, they would try to debate over which one would get the girl. The cheerleader stopped the both of them and explained that she could not choose between the two of them and that she had other plans. Before getting into an X-rated script we'll just say all three of them lived happily ever after...especially the guy.
The End.
As far as the article on short story rules goes, I can dig it. It leaves a very simple outline of what you should look to accomplish when writing a story. For the amateur writer, following these rules would be a very good starting point. What I like most about them is that among the rules is a rule to break the rules. This leaves everything open to experimentation. This is the rule that separates the elite writers from the average. The ability to effectively break the rules while keeping the reader's interest is where it's at.
BOOM SON!

Oh, dear! Lol. Well, I can say this-- there is-- and always will be-- a market for stories like this.
In terms of storytelling, I would suggest telling the story from one of the POVs of the characters. You could even tell the story as three vignettes-- one from the POV of the cheerleader, one from the football player's POV, and one from the POV of the cheerleader's friend.
Also, dialog can be a big help because it 1) can move a story along, and 2) can paint a picture of a character better than descriptive words can...
