She grew up in their house, best friends with one brother... and now she's tangled up with the other. A summer wedding, a secret romance, stolen kisses, and the kind of love that could ruin everything.

The bell rang again. The pizzas had apparently arrived. "I'll get it!" Terence squealed and jumped on his feet. Taking large steps towards the door, he accidentally let a loud growl come from his tummy, only to be mocked by his best friend. "Oh, the beast is hungry!" Giving him a middle finger, Terence rolled his eyes giggling, and cut a corner to reach the door. Esteban waited patiently for the food to come by spending time on his phone, playing candy crush, even if he knew that would only last a few seconds. He was expecting the food to be on his door and Terence to take a while until he decided the tip he was going to leave. However, when Terence came back, he wasn't holding only pizza boxes and French fries like he was expecting. Instead, he was holding something that seemed to have terrified him and Esteban a lot. "I thought you ordered pizzas, not a baby" Terence mumbled shocked as he placed on the couch a cute basket with a baby inside. • • • _______________________________________________________ ⚠️ DISCLAIMER ⚠️ I don't own any of the photos! • • ENGLISH IS NOT MY MOTHER LANGUAGE, I'M SORRY FOR ANY GRAMMATICAL OR VOCABULARY MISTAKES! • • Please read 'Before You Read' in the first character chap!

Dahlia hopped back and off of his bed, quickly sliding back into her fuzzy slippers. She knew she had to get away from this nightmare. "Baby, wait!" Jordan was up a moment later, gently gripping her wrists, trying to pull her back in, but it was already too late. Dahlia's tears had begun to spill and he knew he was losing her. "No, Jordan." The calm tone in her voice scared Jordan... he knew it was masking something much bigger on the inside. "All this time, fifteen years... I thought I was lucky. I found my person... the guy that was never going to hurt me. You were the one person I thought I could trust." "Doll, you can tr--" "Obviously, I can't."

Xolani and Two have been inseparable since they first met in elementary school. Years of sleepovers, inside jokes, and unspoken glances shaped a bond neither of them dared to mess with. But as adult life pulls them into new versions of themselves, Xolani stars to realize it's getting harder to pretend her feelings are just platonic. What she doesn't know is that Two has been doing the same thing- burying his feelings, afraid to risk what they've built. Until one night, when he finally lets it slip. "𝘐'𝘷𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘥 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘪𝘯 𝘲𝘶𝘪𝘦𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘴𝘰 𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨... 𝘐'𝘰𝘯 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘦𝘭𝘴𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘢𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥, 𝘟𝘰."

I cupped her face, planting a soft kiss on her beautiful lips. "Don't ever run from me, baby," I said softly, letting my thumb trace her jaw. "I love the chase." Her jaw tightened, her hands coming up to try and move mine. "Stop calling me baby, Ezra," she snapped, eyes flashing. I couldn't help but grin, dropping my voice to something low and dark. "Ohhh, now my baby has a problem with me calling her baby?" She shot me a glare, but I just tucked her hair behind her ear, pressing another kiss to her lips-gentler this time, lingering. "You don't get to tell me what to call you, baby." I leaned in closer, brushing my nose against hers. "You're whatever the fuck I call you."
