Aiden Acharya's first love was Aru Shah. He knew it from the moment he saw her. It was going to be her, no matter what. Always. But what happens when the ghosts of past catch up to haunt him? When the fear of turning into a monster overcomes him so much that he can't even bring himself to look her in the eye. Stepping back was something he never imagined he'd do. Not to mention it hurts like hell. But knowing there was someone better for her out there? That, for him, was heaven.

When Aru and Aiden, definent best friends for life, step up to teach a class, all their students care about is getting them together.

Aru Shah is an eighteen year old college freshman, who is currently trying to pull herself out of a personal tragedy, when disaster strikes their group. They stumble upon the body of a professor in their college, who seems to have been murdered. After finding out he was being threatened, and after Aru is threatened too, the group hurries to find the murderer--and the search needs to be rushed, after they themselves begin getting death threats. But, little does Aru know that searching for the killer will unearth family secrets she'll prefer left hidden in the shadows... ---- "He dug his nails into his palm, crescent moon shaped scars bleeding against his skin, as, with trembling, sweaty hands, he grasped the doorknob, and stumbled into his room, slamming the door behind him. The same thought echoed in his head: Neither of us are safe here." -Chapter XXIX ---- An Aru Shah Human! AU. ---- NOTE: TW for death threats, murder, gore, substance abuse, and mature language.

Aru Shah only wanted to get college over with. That's it. Seriously though, who else thinks that having to deal with more school after college is messed up? What was more messed up was her apartment after returning from the icecream parlour. It was Rundown Original story belongs to Roshani Chokshi. SNEAKPEAK~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ His hands guided hers and dialed 911. "911, what's your emergency?" "I-I- our place" Aru started past the bile in her throat. 'Im going to be sick' she thought disgustedly. She dug her nails into her palm, ignoring the pain. 'In, and out.' She breathed. 'In and...' "Ma'am? Hello? Im going to need you to stay with me, okay? "Our apartment has been rundown" She finished.

Aru Shah loves her job. Wouldn't you when you're a well known detective? When you're called 'the Sherlock Holmes of the era'? Her streak was a case solved in 6 days! Well on official documentation, it says 5 days 18 hours and 53 minutes, but the official news says 6 days. Whatever. Plus, her sisters worked there! Could it get any better? But she works alone. Solo was the best way to go, after all. That being said, could you imagine her reaction when they say she has to work with someone equally as good as her? Well, first, she wasn't used to it, and second, her pride was at stake here! But this was also the most dangerous case she has gotten in...forever. Will working with him slow her down? Or will they finish it quickly? Will they reach The Light at the End of the Tunnel in time? TW: mentions of blood, fatal injuries, death, weapons, SA, and abuse. Original story belongs to Roshani Chokshi, but this plot and my OCs belong to me. DON'T STEAL IT!

Did Aru want to go to the new years party? No. Would she rather be on her couch in her pajamas watching Lord of the Rings while eating way too much Swedish Fish? Who wouldn't? Her father. Her father wouldn't. He wanted her to go there and "socialize" which was code for "you need to find someone to marry because your life's really sad". It was some party for his law firm he started with one of his friends too, not even like a rager which would've been mildly fun. Aiden's father was a crappy one at best. So when Aiden's dad made him the photographer at some stupid new years party that he was throwing for his law firm, of course he protested. But he couldn't look at his mom so happy about it and still tell her that he didn't wanna do it. So he was still the photographer. Shit. When they both meet, (it's up to you to guess what happens, pretty easy) Okay so this is my first fanfic so please don't make fun of it if it's like REALLY bad but there's an unfortunate lack of aru shah aus that I HAVEN'T read and I'm like obsessed with aruden it's starting to become an issue hahah i'll TRY to update, and if I have writers block or smth i'll give yall a heads up and write something in place of it:) and yes this is very much based off of new years day by taylor swift

After doing something mortifying in front of a new detective in her precinct, Mini's now paired up with him to catch a kidnapper. But little do Mini and her new partner, Rudy, know that chasing him will lead them down a dangerous path that will threaten the people they love- and them. ---- "She looked up at him, something close to the beginnings of hope entering her eyes, as, abruptly, she leaned forward, and threw her arms around him, enveloping him in a hug. It took him by surprise, but he slowly returned the hug, his arms going to her back, her body emanating warmth. Through his own, fluttering heartbeat, he heard hers: steady and faint, something comforting. Slowly but steadily, Rudy felt his own heart fall into tandem with hers." -Chapter 8 ---- TW: Death threats, mentions of SA, death, substance abuse, and mature language. ----

When it came to her sister's crush, Aru Shah couldn't care less than she already did. She didn't even know the guy, and it didn't help that he was the hot topic in all of Kara's and Aru's conversations. She knew she had to meet the dude someday, because of their mutual friend group, but she didn't expect to meet him to help him and Kara for their project. It helped her too, so what was the point in denying? Aiden knew people only liked him, and talked to him because of his looks. He knew love was a waste of time, because the guy Aiden actually was was someone who nobody cared about. But when one of his friends came up to him and told him that she had found a model for their end-of-year project, he readily accepted, not knowing that this one person would make him change his perspective. In the end, he realised, there were albums of snapshots, all overflowing with pictures of memories he never knew he wanted.

Aiden Acharya was not up for getting engaged. He was graduating high school, his whole life ahead of him, and it was all getting burned down in one day. Or was it? **PICTURES ON COVER ARE NOT MINE**
