missenair
Ely never took life too seriously-she was the type to laugh through deadlines, wing presentations, and survive on caffeine and cramming. Zach, on the other hand, was precise, calculated, and effortlessly good at everything he did. They were opposites in the best (and worst) ways, constantly crossing paths in college through friends, competitions, and unexpected encounters.
What started as harmless rivalry turned into something else-stolen glances, late-night messages, and the kind of tension that neither of them wanted to name. But timing has never been on their side.
Years later, with degrees in their hands and successful careers ahead, their paths collide once more. The question is-will they finally get it right this time, or are they still just another 'almost'?
