In your small, conservative town where appearances matter more than truth, you've been the quiet one. The good girl. The one who helps in Sunday school, sings in the choir, and keeps her knees closed and eyes down like you're supposed to. But everything starts to unravel the summer Lewis Pullman comes home. He's the preacher's son-older, quiet, once a golden boy who left for seminary and returned looking weathered, with sadness in his eyes and hands that tremble when they graze yours. Everyone here speaks about him in whispers now, about why he left, why he came back. You're assigned to help him lead the youth theater program at the church, and soon you're spending your afternoons under fluorescent lights and lingering gazes, rewriting scripture into scripts, pretending not to feel the weight of him behind you when he leans in too close. You're supposed to be above temptation. He's supposed to know better. But in the humid silence of your hometown, you both break in secret-slowly, beautifully, and with the kind of hunger that leaves bruises. A story of unspoken desires, quiet rebellion, and the ache of two people who were never allowed to want what they do. Thank you to @sturniolofan56 for the stunning request that inspired this story.

[+18] Lyanna Morgan has always been good at hiding the truth-until the truth puts her on the edge of a courtroom and face to face with a man who sees through everything. Javier Peña isn't the kind of lawyer who asks questions. He doesn't care about innocence. Only control. Strategy. Winning. But something about her ruins that. What begins as strategy spirals into a dangerous obsession-one laced with control, defiance, and a kind of desire that doesn't play fair. In the courtroom, they're fighting for her freedom. Behind closed doors? He's teaching her what it means to be owned. He was only supposed to help her. But she's going to be the only thing he can't let go of.

"Shut the hell, your mouth!" Daniel's hands squeeze my waist as he pushes me against the wall, growing closer to me. The quietness striking me when the only thing I can see in the dark is my horrified reflection in his glowing blue eyes. I can hear my breathing as I place my shaking arms beside me not knowing what to do with them. I can hear my heartbeat going at such a fast rate, I wouldn't even be able to count the beats. My chest rising and falling against Daniel's chest. "Dan- "Don't fucking speak," he growls in my ear, "just don't." ~~~~~~~~~ College is an opportunity for a new fresh start and that's exactly how Lou sees it. For a start making friends isn't so bad with her popular roommate Kayla. When Lou enters a friend group everything seems fine, until an apathetic and rude guy named Daniel won't stop messing around with her. ~~~~~~~~~ #2 in apathetic - 2/12/20 #2 in apathy - 2/12/20 #12 in danielseavey - 2/1/20 #1 in jackavery - 4/1/20 #1 in daniel - 4/5/20 #1 in corbynbesson - 4/25/20 #1 in apathetic - 7/24/20 #1 in apathy - 7/24/20 #1 in whydontwe - 9/8/20 #1 in jonahmarais- 5/16/22 ~~~~~~~~~ started : 12/29/19 ended : 10/29/20
