"More Than a Crush" is an emotionally intense, dark romance about heartbreak, healing, and the kind of love that grows from pain.
The story begins with a boy in his final year of school, still trapped in a dying relationship. He knows his girlfriend is cheating-worse, with his best friend-but he clings to the hope that something might still be saved. On August 12th, everything starts to shift. That's the day Sam walks into his life. Quiet, intriguing, and unaware of the storm brewing around her, she catches his attention without even trying.
As his world collapses around him-his girlfriend finally confessing to betrayal, and his best friend playing a double game-he begins to spiral. But in the wreckage, Sam becomes his anchor. What starts as curiosity quickly becomes comfort. Her presence is soft but powerful, her words healing and full of life. She talks about love like it's something sacred, something worth believing in again.
Through late-night conversations and small moments, Sam slowly teaches him how to trust again. Their connection deepens into something more-but not without struggle. The boy wrestles with his past, his fears, and the darkness that betrayal left behind. Sam has her own walls too, her own quiet pain. But together, they begin to rewrite what love means.
As the months pass, what began as an escape turns into a bond neither of them expected. Their love becomes raw, real, and unshakable-a slow burn that erupts into something beautiful. In the end, they don't just fall for each other-they fall into each other, deeply and completely.
How We Fell is a story of broken hearts mending, of love growing through the cracks, and of finding something pure even in the darkest places.
