Addison May and Jack Carter share a past that neither of them talks about anymore, the kind of past that still aches if you touch it too closely. Years ago, they were inseparable-young, in love, and full of plans they thought were unbreakable. But everything changed when Jack's mother fell ill. The grief hit him like a tidal wave, dragging him under before anyone could reach him. He turned to drinking, to shutting people out, to numbing himself in any way he could. And Addison, who loved him more than she ever admitted out loud, tried to hold on. She tried until she had nothing left to give. But the lowest point came the night she found out he'd cheated. In that instant, every version of their future shattered. She walked away without letting him explain, without letting herself look back. She swore she'd never trust him again. Never speak to him again. Never, ever let him close enough to hurt her again. Over time, her heartbreak hardened into anger, and that anger turned into something she told herself was hate-sharp, cold, and permanent. Years passed. They built separate lives, avoided the same rooms, the same conversations, the same memories. Addison convinced herself she was over it. Over him. Until now. At their best friends' wedding-surrounded by soft lights, slow music, and too many glasses of champagne-fate throws them right back into each other's orbit. One look across the room unravels her, one awkward "hi" tempts him, and one moment of shared laughter feels dangerously familiar. The night blurs, their walls loosen, and every emotion they buried rises to the surface. And when one thing leads to another... Addison is forced to face a truth she's avoided for years: The past isn't done with them. Not even close.

After spending most of her life surrounded by the noise and chaos of the big city, Winnie Grant found herself yearning for something quieter-something real. When the restlessness became too loud to ignore, she did the unthinkable: she quit her job, packed away the pieces of her old life, and accepted a new position in Red Lodge, Montana-a small town where everyone knew everyone, and secrets traveled faster than the wind. As the city skyline disappeared in her rearview mirror, Winnie could only hope she was making the right choice. Her new home was everything she hadn't realized she needed-quiet, quaint, and surrounded by the kind of stillness that made her both uneasy and comforted. After a few days of settling in, curiosity (and perhaps a touch of loneliness) led her to the local bar-a warm, wood-paneled place that smelled faintly of pine and spilled whiskey. That was where she met him. Sheriff Ben Langley. The man everyone in town seemed to know, and more than a few wished would so much as glance their way. Steady, reserved, and impossibly grounded in this small-town life-he was the last kind of man Winnie expected to notice her. But that night, under the soft glow of the bar's lights, it was the newcomer-the woman with city eyes and a quiet kind of courage-who caught his attention.

A burgeoning NYU student, Sol Peterson, has not in a single moment actively tried to find her soulmates. Her situation is a strange one, having quite a few marks (much more than the normal 1-3) and not believing she could possibly have the time or capacity to find all seven of the corresponding people to her tatoo-like markings. All changes, however, after a special guest at one of her classes. - Soulmates/marks - Tony Stark - sternum Steve Rogers - left flank/torso Thor Odinson - left collarbone Loki Odinson - right ankle Bucky Barnes - left ankle Natasha Romanoff - right collarbone Bruce Banner - right flank/torso DISCLAIMERS - I am not an expert at Marvel stuff but I will try my best - This book is a work of my imagination and definitely not to be taken as sticking strictly to the timeline followed by the MCU - Most characters used are property of Marvel Studios/Comics EDIT: I wrote this throughout eighth and early ninth grade. It is by no means my best work and I'm sure you can see the writing evolution through it. I may or may not write a sequel but that is TBD! As always, love from Rue xoxo

She never meant to end up living in Avengers Tower. She just wanted a quiet job-something behind the scenes, something where she could help without being seen. Y/N is the kind of girl who slips into corners, fades into hallways, and patches people up without asking for thanks. Shy. Careful. Quiet. A girl who knows how to survive by staying unnoticed. Bucky Barnes is the opposite. Haunted past, metal arm, too many eyes watching his every move. He's a former assassin trying to learn how to live again-how to breathe without guilt, how to sleep without nightmares. They shouldn't orbit each other. But slowly... they do. A silent cup of coffee left on a desk. A shared moment in a dim hallway. A hand offered in panic and not pushed away. She's afraid to trust. He's afraid to hurt anyone. And somehow, two people who can barely look each other in the eye start to change everything-one small moment at a time. This isn't a love story born from sparks and fireworks. It's a slow bloom between a girl who hides and a man learning he's safe to care again. Quiet hearts. Soft hands. Careful steps. A love story built in silence. And when it finally ignites-it might burn brighter than either of them ever imagined.
