in which an emotionally avoidant corporate event planner struggles to sleep when her new neighbours refuse to be quiet luke hemmings x oc neighbours!au

Amelia Styles has spent her life growing up in the glow of fame-where privacy is rare, expectations are heavy, and every version of her is already being watched before she can define it for herself. Being part of the Styles family means she's never truly out of the spotlight, even when she wishes she could be. Luke Hemmings has learned how to live inside that same world from a different stage-tour buses, late-night studios, and a life constantly spilt between who he is and who the world expects him to be. He knows how easy it is to lose yourself in the noise... and how careful you have to be when something real starts to matter. When Amelia and Luke cross paths, it begins quietly. No headlines, no declarations-just stolen conversations, shared understanding, and a connection that feels too natural to ignore. But in a world built on visibility, even the most private feelings have a way of being seen. As their relationship deepens, so does the pressure surrounding it-family watchfulness, industry expectations, and the fear that timing might be working against them instead of for them. Between secrecy and exposure, closeness and distance, they're forced to decide love can survive in a world that never stops looking. Because in their story, falling in love is never the hardest part. It's everything that comes after.

"You can't just expect me to pretend that I'm not in love with you." "Luke, you're dating my best friend." On hold for editing because I wrote this when I was like 15 and well yeah, that sums it up really (very cringey and cliche)

"i just wanna get back to us, 'cause we used to have more" in which they realise what they had is gone, and they can't stop wondering if they ever really let it go.
