Being a Gryffindor princess was a curse in some ways. Likewise, being James Potter's sister was a curse. Girls her age only hung out with her because she had a charming brother, the captain of the quidditch team, or didn't hang out with her because her brother was an idiot. She was cursed to be with everyone and no one at the same time. When Sarah entered her fifth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft, she didn't expect anything new at all.

Lately, Lip Gallagher's been off his usual game-but not in the self-destructive way they're used to. He's up early. Out late. Sober more often than not. Focused. Secretive. The Gallagher house notices. Of course they do. He's eating breakfast at the table, not passed out on it. He showers. He's reading-for fun. Fiona's suspicious. Carl assumes it's drugs. Ian just says, "He's hiding something." But nobody knows what. Then one morning, as Lip eats toast with a rare smirk on his face, a car horn blares from outside. One short beep. One long. Lip immediately jumps up. "Gotta go," he says, grabbing his bag. Everyone follows him to the front window out of pure South Side nosiness. They watch as he strides down the steps and into a waiting car-but before he gets in, he leans through the open window and kisses someone. A real kiss. Not a hookup. Not drunk regret. Not just heat. Intention. The car pulls away before anyone gets a good look. Silence. Kev whistles. "Okay... who the hell was that?" V grins. "Lip's got a damn girlfriend." Debbie mutters, "And didn't tell any of us?" Carl: "I bet she's weird. Like, yoga weird." Lip never says a word about it. But now the curiosity is full-blown obsession. The Gallaghers aren't great at boundaries, and this? This is now everyone's business. Eventually, they learn her name-Destiny. She's the same age as Lip. A nursing student. Clean. Focused. Private. Smart. Not from the South Side-and definitely not the type of girl who usually gets mixed up with Gallaghers. But she sees something in Lip he's never seen in himself. And that scares him more than anything. When their two worlds start to collide-her calm against his chaos, her past against his present-Lip has to ask himself: is he falling for her because she's everything he's never had, or because he finally believes he deserves her?

She wasn't looking for him. He wasn't supposed to stay. But Lotte, the sharp-eyed café owner with a soft heart and no need for English, knew better. In a quiet Berlin café filled with secondhand furniture, old vinyl records, and Lotte's unbeatable cherry cake, Emi lives a life of stillness-small, steady, safe. Then Harry Styles walks in, quiet and unshaven, trying to disappear. What starts with shared glances and mismatched mugs becomes routines, soup bowls, and late-night confessions. Emi pretends not to know who he is. Harry pretends he's not falling. And Lotte? She sees everything-and starts nudging them together with cake, eye-rolls, and more than a little mischief. But secrets don't stay quiet forever. When the world comes calling and Harry's love songs start sounding a little too familiar, Emi has to choose: stay hidden in her quiet corners-or finally risk being seen. A slow-burn, aching love story about intimacy, anonymity, and the grandmotherly matchmaker who always knew best. --- Warning : It's very slow and very long!
