💔 If We Burn
By Leeyahth
Aleeyah didn't come to Empire High to make friends. She came to disappear.
After being bullied out of her former school, all she wants is silence and survival. But silence has a way of echoing louder than words - especially when Khalid enters the picture.
He's distant. Dark. Untouchable.
And somehow, he sees her - not the quiet, careful version, but the broken, burning one beneath.
But Empire High holds secrets.
And when rumors swirl, fists fly, and memories resurface, Aleeyah and Khalid are forced to choose:
Hide from their scars... or burn with them.
A haunting tale of love, lies, and the kind of pain that clings.
If survival means staying apart, why does it hurt more than falling together?
