𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐋𝐄𝐓𝐄𝐃 He was so happy. How was he so happy all the time? Nobody is that happy. It's impossible. ____________________________________ 𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐀 𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐄 𝐋𝐘𝐍𝐂𝐇 I hated everything about myself. The way my body matured differently than Shannon's. The way my body was curved and built for the eyes of man. I hated me. I hated everything. 𝐉𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐒 𝐅𝐈𝐍𝐍 𝐆𝐈𝐁𝐒𝐎𝐍 I was funny. Not as funny as my brother. I had a nice smile, my mother told me so(but she wouldn't believe me if I had told her) I was good at smiling, it made me look happy and that made me feel happy. I wanted to wipe any unhappy memories out of my brain, I wanted to clean the dirt dug into my skin. But I can't. So I'm just happy.

❝ SOMETIMES THE PAST REFUSES TO LET YOU GO. ❞ • ୨💌୧ 𝐈𝐍 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐂𝐇 . . . Delilah Allen and Asher Young were everything to each other-two kids from neighboring families, inseparable in shared gardens, inside jokes, and quiet understanding. They were never a couple, but it was always heading there... until the night Caoimhe Young died. The tragedy shattered their town. Families turned on each other, old friends disappeared, and a silence full of fury and secrets fell between the Allens and the Youngs. Delilah stopped speaking, stopped trusting, stopped existing in the world she once loved-except for her stepbrother Gibsie, the one person who keeps her grounded. Asher Young knows the truth about that night, a truth no one else can prove. Outwardly, he plays the cold, distant role expected of him. But behind closed doors, he watches over Delilah, haunted by the past and the bond they still share. Oc x Oc! (COMPLETE) ✦ fleeting glances . forbidden proximity . secrets and loyalty .
