Sixteen-year-old Eleanor "Ellie" Biggs is done. Done with London, with the bullies who broke her, with the whispers that she's defective like her mam, destined to burn out or fade away. Back in Cork- for good, she's promised herself one thing: no one gets close. Not friends, not boys, not anyone. But then there's Cillian Ryan. On the surface he's Tommen's golden boy - the rugby star captain with the grin everyone falls for. Underneath, he's crumbling under the fists of his father, the silence of his mother, and the weight of protecting a little brother who's running out of smiles. Neither of them are looking for each other. But when Ellie's walls crack and Cillian refuses to walk away, something shifts. She's the girl who swore she'd never trust again. He's the boy who swore he'd carry it all alone. Together, they might just be brave enough to face the storms no one else sees. Messy, magnetic, and unflinchingly real - this is a story about first love, family scars, and finding light in the dark.

Lucille Kavanagh was the perfect girl-everyone envied her effortless charm. But beneath the shine, she was clever, restless, and far more complicated than she seemed. Gerard Gibson was the loudest boy at Tommen, always joking and grinning, the class clown. But behind the laughter, he carried heavy losses, and he wasn't as unbreakable as he appeared. Lucille was learning to stand on her own, and somewhere in the middle of it all was Gerard-no longer just the loudmouth, but the boy who listened and made her feel seen. What started as friendship grew into something softer, something unexpected. . ݁₊ ⊹ . ݁ ⟡ ݁ . ⊹ ₊ ݁. Gerard Gibson x Fem!Oc This story does include sexual && mature content!

Anna Lynch was fucking petrified of men. Not just uncomfortable- terrified.She'd flinch if one of us so much as walked too close. She was always keeping herself pressed to walls, eyes darting for exits like she was planning an escape. And it wasn't just the loud ones or the gobshites. Even Johnny Kavanagh-her sisters boyfriend -made her recoil. That's when it really hit me. This wasn't nerves. This was trauma, stitched into every muscle in her body. The only lads she wasn't afraid of were her brothers-Joey and Darren. She stuck to them like her life depended on it, like they were the only two people in the world who'd never let her down. The rest of us? We were threats until proven otherwise #1-hughbiggs #1-chilhoodtrauma #1-mentalhealth #1-mutism

Journee Lynch has always lived in the shadows-of her siblings, her twin Joey, and the trauma she's quietly carried alone. In a family bursting with strong personalities and loud voices, Journee is the one everyone forgets. Quiet, scarred, and painfully overlooked, she's learned to expect invisibility. Hughie Biggs, on the other hand, can't afford to go unnoticed. The golden boy of Tommen, he's the picture of perfection: top of his class, star on the field, and the pride of his family. But the pressure to be flawless is suffocating, and mistakes are not part of his reality. Their worlds collide when Hughie stumbles upon Journee-the girl no one sees but who captures all of him. In her, he finds something real. Something raw. And as he begins to uncover the layers of the girl everyone overlooks, he finds himself captivated by the very imperfections she's been taught to hide.
