Aaliyah Johnson is in her final year at Magnolia State University, where she's balancing a scholarship, an art degree, and the pressure of not knowing what comes next. Elias Carter, the university's baseball captain, seems to have everything figured out, except his own heart. When mutual friends and a poetry club bring them together, sparks ignite in the most unexpected ways. She's brilliant and blunt; he's disciplined and mysterious. But between classes, practices, and the expectations of everyone around them, connection becomes the one thing they can't plan for. From strangers to friends to something far deeper, their story grows with every season, rooted beneath a magnolia tree that sees it all. Autumn brings sparks: "I'm curious about you, but I don't even know why yet." Winter, closeness: "You calm me when I didn't realise I needed calming." Spring, love: "I've known for a while... I just didn't want to ruin it." Summer, uncertainty: "Even if everything changes, you've changed me already."

When she agrees to tutor the university's star basketball player for forty dollars an hour, she's only thinking about one thing-the money. What she doesn't expect is Kenji Nakamura: 6'5" of tattoos, silence, and ego wrapped in a designer hoodie. He's used to girls falling at his feet. She charges him a late fee. He wants her number. She Venmo requests him instead. He's never had to work for anyone's attention. She's never had time to give it. Kenji doesn't do feelings. He does highlights, endorsements, and whatever it takes to make it to the NBA. But Destiny Morrison-with her sharp tongue, her bonnets, and her complete lack of interest in his fame-is the first person who's ever looked at him and seen just... a guy. And that terrifies him. Because for the first time in his life, Kenji Nakamura is falling first. And falling 𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘥. 𝐒𝐡𝐞'𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐝. 𝐇𝐞'𝐬 𝐨𝐛𝐬𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐝. 𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐧𝐞𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲'𝐫𝐞 𝐝𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠.

She didn't do drama, didn't take nonsense from any man. Until him. For Cassian, she broke every one. A cliché, impossible mother in law? She handled it. Missed dinners because of work? She served herself double and waited anyway. Too tired to spend time together? She embraced the quiet hours alone. She forgot her limits, abandoned her rules. All for him. Until her. The one rule she couldn't break, the limit she couldn't cross. She saw him with her. Broken, she left and whispered a wish she never thought would come true: that she had never met him. The wish was granted. Alessia woke up and didn't remember him. But now Cassian is the one waiting. Running against time to be near her. Chasing every moment, following every rule, just so she might remember him again. And if she can't... Can he remember it all for both of them?

🌟 WATTYS 2026 SUBMISSION 🌟 After her boyfriend cheats and says she's "not good in bed," a type-A psychology student launches a no-strings-attached sex experiment to prove him wrong-only to fall for the one variable she can't control: her ex's best friend. ********* Psychology student Lucy Bennett had her life mapped out with clinical precision: finish her thesis, marry her high-school sweetheart, land a research position, and start the five-year plan they'd been building since senior prom. Then he cheats. And worse, when he ends things, he tells her the reason he strayed was simple: she wasn't good in bed. Reeling from heartbreak, Lucy does the only thing she knows how to do. She turns the wreckage into research. Scrapping her original thesis, she proposes a bold new question: Does sexual satisfaction increase with experience? Determined to prove that sexual desire can be learned, not innate, Lucy becomes her own case study. Enter Mason Reid-her ex's infuriatingly charming best friend, campus jock, and the guy everyone whispers about being very good in bed. With his confidence, rules-free approach to sex, and a surprising respect for boundaries, Mason agrees to help Lucy "test her theory." What starts as an experiment in confidence and control quickly becomes something messier. And as the lines between research and reality blur, Lucy must decide whether proving she's "good in bed" matters more than discovering what and who actually makes her feel whole.
