"Definitely no eligible bachelors on this flight." Those were the last words I said before boarding. I never expected a spontaneous trip to Singapore to change anything. I certainly didn't expect to spend seven hours talking to a stranger on a plane. But then I met him. Older, British, and from Birmingham, he was the last person I expected to connect with. What started as a simple conversation somewhere above the clouds quickly became something I couldn't stop thinking about. Some people come into your life when you least expect them. And sometimes, a single flight is enough to make you reconsider everything.

📖 Naomi Eighteen was supposed to feel like freedom. But for Naomi Sinclair, it feels more like a decision she never fully got to make. Fresh out of high school and standing at the edge of a life already mapped out for her, Naomi is expected to follow the perfect path-Harvard, success, legacy. Her parents, Dr. Adrian and Vanessa Sinclair, have already written the next chapter of her life... she just hasn't agreed to it yet. While her best friends Keisha and Shayla are figuring out community college and the meaning of "figuring it out," Naomi is caught between expectation and uncertainty-between the life she wants and the life she's been told she should want. Then there's Wesley. A name that keeps showing up where it shouldn't. A future that feels less like choice... and more like arrangement. And when pressure, ambition, and hidden connections collide, Naomi learns that growing up isn't just about becoming somebody. It's about deciding who you refuse to become. Because in her world, even love, success, and freedom come with strings attached.

Keni Blaze wasn't looking for trouble. She definitely wasn't looking for him. Marcellus "Cell" Knox is the kind of man people warn you about- quiet, dangerous, and carrying secrets that don't come with explanations. One encounter was supposed to be nothing. A moment. A mistake. Something she could walk away from. But Cell doesn't move like other men. And once he sets his eyes on something... he doesn't let it go. Now Keni's caught between what she knows is wrong and what her body won't stop craving. Because the deeper she gets, the more she realizes- Cell isn't just hiding something. He is something. And by the time the truth surfaces... walking away might not be an option anymore.

Lili's life is ordinary. School. Eat. Sleep. Repeat. Until one day, an anonymous message appears on her phone. "If you're not doing well, talk to someone..." At first, she thinks it's a joke. Then the messages become impossible to ignore. The sender knows things no stranger should know. Things she has never told anyone. Who is watching her? Assad, the boy she's loved for years? A close friend? Or Elias, the quiet boy no one ever notices? As the messages continue, Lili becomes obsessed with uncovering the truth. But the closer she gets to the answer, the more she realizes that some secrets were never meant to be found. Because the person behind the screen is someone she would never suspect. And they know everything. A mystery filled with secrets, suspense, and unexpected twists.

At East Briar High, six teenagers are just trying to survive their own lives - grief, pressure, loneliness, expectations, and secrets they don't dare say out loud. Lyra, the quiet girl with too many feelings and a voice she's afraid to use. Blu, the exhausted guitarist carrying more weight than any seventeen‑year‑old should. Jade, the sharp‑tongued bassist who loves harder than she admits. Uche, the drummer who hides his fear behind jokes and volume. Austin, the producer who sees music the way other people see color. Ski, the keyboardist who's spent years trying to disappear. They're strangers - orbiting the same school, the same hallways, the same pain - until the day everything falls apart. When the school's official band quits hours before the pep rally, the six of them are thrown together in a desperate attempt to save the event. What starts as a chaotic, accidental performance becomes something none of them expected: A spark. A sound. A beginning. Unofficially, that's the moment the band forms. Officially? It happens when Lyra convinces them to enter Battle of the Bands, where the grand prize is $100,000 and a record deal - the kind of money that could change all their lives. The kind of chance you don't walk away from. But forming a band is the easy part. Staying one? That's where everything gets messy. Between rising tensions, old wounds, new crushes, clashing personalities, and the pressure of the competition, the six of them are forced to face the parts of themselves they've spent years avoiding. They start as strangers. They become something like friends. And by the end - through the music, the chaos, the heartbreak, and the healing - they might just become a family. If they don't fall apart first.

Almost a month after her brother Oliver goes missing, Vivian is called back to the police station for more questioning. During her walk there, a painful ringing fills her ears, and the world around her begins to fade away. In that moment, she falls through the fabric of reality. Soon, Vivian awakens in an endless reality called the Backrooms. Through exploration, cryptic documents, and hostile monsters, Vivian discovers secrets about Oliver's disappearance. Now, her goal isn't to escape this alternate reality, but to find her brother. However, in a place designed to break the human mind, her determination may become her own downfall. -- This original story is heavily inspired by a mix of different Backroom's lore, but some concepts are added or changed to fit the storyline and add to the plot!! Please keep in mind that this is my personal version of the Backrooms and is NOT following one specific lore version (for example, Kane's version, original 4chan, or video game lore), although ideas from all these versions are incorporated throughout the story! I love comments and DMs, so please let me know your thoughts, questions, etc!! Note: I plan on releasing chapters hopefully weekly or every other week, but I am very busy so the schedule may not be perfect, sorry!!!
