Iris Heathers and Aurora Romane find themselves falling for one another despite their dynamic. Iris enters Aurora's life as only a babysitter for her child, Ariella. However, she becomes much more than that with time. Aurora held no shame in her commitment to the other woman, disregarding her title entirely. The Babysitter is a 'fast-paced' story about two women who fall in love, overcoming all obstacles that present themselves ahead.

We were twelve and thirteen when we met. She was the prodigy. I was the girl in the seats. We became inseparable. Billie Eilish taught me how to trust green rooms, group chats, and secrets whispered during warmups. I learned her laugh, her moods, the way she'd call me Mel like it meant something. I didn't realize I was in love with her until years later-after the pet names, the late-night calls, the almosts we never talked about. When we finally blurred the line-just us, no labels-it felt inevitable. Then she cut me off for a boy with a smirk and a spotlight. He found out about us. He made sure I knew I'd never be enough. I showed her what he sent. She chose him anyway. We haven't spoken since. Now I'm twenty-one, vegan, five feet of fury, chaos, and accidental fame. My sister Mya, my best friend Grace, and I are building something real. I swore I was done waiting for Billie to choose me. But the universe? Messy. Her music keeps finding its way into my life-and my work. People keep asking about us. And every time I see her name, I remember the way she used to look at me like I was hers. She says we're nothing. I remember everything. We're not friends. We're not over. And if she wants to pretend it didn't happen-fine. Let her watch while the whole world falls for the girl she walked away from.

Aurora Bennett and Billie Eilish met in a Los Angeles dance class at thirteen. they were inseparable ever since-bonding over music, inside jokes, and even their shared crush on Justin Bieber. For years, Billie wasn't just Aurora's best friend; she was home. But in 2021, Aurora's world shattered. Her mum's sudden passing forced her and her little sister Juliette back to Brisbane, into the custody of a father they feared. At just eighteen, Aurora chose to endure his cruelty to protect Juliette, sacrificing her entire life in L.A. The day Juliette turned thirteen, the sisters sought help from child protection services, and Aurora fought a brutal five-month court battle to win custody. She won-but the cost was high. Their father had destroyed every device, every connection, every trace of the life they once knew. Until a letter changed everything. Encouraged by her best friend Kyle, Aurora wrote to Billie through a P.O. box, never expecting it to reach her. But it did. Soon, secret letters became the sisters' lifeline back to L.A.-a thread of connection, once a month, from her aunt's house. Then one day, Finneas reached out directly. Through him and Claudia, Aurora discovered something she never dared hope for: a way back. Now, with their mother's hidden inheritance uncovered, a home waiting in L.A., and Kyle finally ready to make the move, Aurora, Juliette, and Kyle are returning. Finneas and Claudia are determined to surprise Billie with Aurora's return, keeping the secret safe. What Aurora doesn't know yet is that this isn't just about finding her old life again. It's about discovering that sometimes the love stories she buries herself in aren't just stories- sometimes, they're waiting for her, the moment she begins again.

Aurora owns a restaurant, Billie becomes a regular. However, they've known each other for longer than they've thought. Friends to lovers. Gxg
