Gina Moving into that tiny apartment felt like cutting the last golden thread tying me to my family. No guards. No rules. Just me... and him. Xavier Patrova. I noticed him immediately-the tattoos crawling down his arms, the way his presence filled the room like something heavy and unmovable. He barely looked at me when I walked in, just muttered a low "don't touch my stuff" before disappearing into his room. I talk when I'm nervous. So I talked. About the apartment, the weather, the stupid elevator that smelled weird. He ignored every word. God, I hated him. He was rude, cold, impossible to read. And worst of all-he made me feel small in a way my family never did. Not protected. Just... insignificant. But then I saw it. By accident, really. That's when everything shifted. Xavier wasn't just some rude, cold stranger. He was drowning. And suddenly... I couldn't hate him anymore. - Xavier She talks too much. That was my first thought when Gina Cameron walked into the apartment like she owned the air itself. Bright voice. Bright eyes. Too bright. People like her don't belong in places like this. I kept my distance. I had to. Because if she looked too close, she'd see it. The mess. The truth. The fact that I'm barely holding anything together. But she doesn't stop. She smiles. She asks questions. She fills the silence I've spent years building. And I hate it. ...until the day she finds out. I didn't mean for her to hear. Didn't mean for her to see the bills, the medicine, the photo of my mother slowly slipping away while I can't afford to save her. When I turned and saw her standing there, I expected judgment. Disgust. Pity. Instead, she just looked at me like... I mattered. Like I wasn't something broken. That scared me more than anything. Because Gina Cameron is everything I should stay away from. But the way she looked at me that day- It changed everything.

REWRITTEN Fia Romero thought her life was perfectly content - until she met Wes Hamilton, her boyfriend Nate's devilishly handsome dorm mate. While Fia had been blissfully ensconced in a committed three-year relationship, Wes didn't believe in tying himself down. For him, college was a buffet of options to be explored and experienced to the fullest without the constraints of commitment. Their unlikely friendship blossomed from an outrageous proposition - Wes wanted Fia to be his matchmaker and find him a girl worth forsaking his wild ways for. What started as an innocent game between polar opposites soon ignited an undeniable chemistry that neither could ignore, no matter how hard they tried. What started as match-making turned into a fake-dating relationship, leading to confused feelings and room-fulls of tension. With each coy smile, each heated exchange of banter, the lines between reality and reckless desire began to blur. Suddenly, Fia found herself questioning everything she thought she knew about love, commitment, and the person she believed was her soulmate. A little game of playing Cupid turns into something more and maybe, the person who has always been the one for you was standing right under your nose the whole time.
