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.

𝗕𝗢𝗬𝗦 𝗢𝗙 𝗧𝗢𝗠𝗠𝗘𝗡 | Euphemia "Effy" Lynch wasn't supposed to exist-at least not in the way her siblings did. Born of a one-night mistake and raised in the shadows of a loud, messy household, Effy has spent most of her life in silence. Quiet by nature, and quieter by necessity, she's the ghost of Ballylaggin Community School-bullied, broken, and invisible to most. Except her sister Shannon. Except her brothers. But everything changes when she transfers to Tommen College on a scholarship, hoping to disappear into the background of a new school. Instead, she catches the eye of Johnny Kavanagh-rugby captain, school golden boy, and the last person she expected to notice her. He's loud. She's silent. He burns. She buries. But somehow, he sees her. Really sees her. And Effy? For the first time in a long time, she wants to be seen. ׂ╰┈➤. johnny kavanagh x fem!oc on going -will update when i can published - aug 12, 2025 ended-
