Newjersey Stories

sequel to Dessert • • • • Jack Hughes x OC

here in this dimension, you & I are meant to be -jhene aiko

Sloane Bennett has been chasing gold since she was sixteen. A silver medal at her first Olympics nearly broke her. A gold at twenty proved she belonged. Now, at twenty-four, the New York Sirens superstar returns to the Olympic stage for the third time-stronger, sharper, and no longer the prodigy people whisper about. She's inevitable. Across the ice, so is he. Jack Hughes has spent his entire life under a spotlight-first overall pick, franchise cornerstone, the golden child of American hockey. But there's only one person who has ever matched him stride for stride. Only one who never looked impressed. Only one who stripped him clean at eleven years old and grinned when he asked for again. Now, for the first time, they wear the same flag. With both Bennett siblings and two Hughes brothers anchoring Team USA, the Olympics become more than a tournament. They become collision. History. Proximity neither of them is prepared for. Between shared family sections, late-night Village conversations, bruised ribs, and unbearable tension that stretches across two gold medal games, longing that began in childhood finally demands to be acknowledged. But gold doesn't make life simple. When the Games end, reality waits: • Media frenzy. • Headlines that write themselves. • Separate leagues. • Separate cities. • Careers that don't slow down for love. And for two people who have spent their lives chasing greatness, the question isn't whether they can win. It's whether they can choose each other without losing themselves. Because some rivalries are built on competition. And some love stories are built on the same word that started everything: Again.

Same industry, different jobs, opposite sides of the Hudson. The universe has a funny way of making sure you're in the right place. But do you always need to listen to it? Note: This story is not a fluffy fanfic and does follow more of a novel structure. If you want a short simple read, this is not for you.

"I've been the archer. I've been the prey. Who could ever leave me, darling? But who could stay?" You said goodbye to Luke Hughes once before-when love felt like a battlefield and staying meant being seen too deeply. You walked away from him, from Michigan, from the only place that ever felt like home. But now you're back. Older. Guarded. Still haunted by the memories of what you had-and what you destroyed. As the new Assistant PR Coordinator for the New Jersey Devils, you expected awkward silences, polite small talk, and distance. What you didn't expect was Luke still looking at you like you hung the stars above the rink. Or how your heart would still leap at the sound of his laugh. He's everything you remember and more-an NHL star with the same soft eyes and unwavering kindness. And you? You're the girl who never learned how to stay. The girl who keeps a box of letters she never gave him. The girl who ruins good things before they have the chance to break her. But Luke? Luke has always stayed. And maybe, just maybe, this time... you'll learn how to stay too.

Read it, please & ty <3

Eleven-year-old Nathan Mackenzie thinks that all is as wonderful as can be as he celebrates Christmas Eve with his family. What could possibly go wrong? Then, suddenly, his beloved Grandfather has a serious accident and everything is thrown into turmoil! While his parents rush off to help, Nathan is left at home to fend for himself. As sadness and fear threaten to take over, Nathan recalls his Mother telling him the old family legend that speaks of a magical Christmas Angel that can come to the aid of those who are in great need on Christmas Eve. Will he ask the Angel for help or is it just an old wives' tale that should be ignored? A blizzard begins, roaring and raging outside and blanketing all in deep snow. Yet, what happens next will change Nathan's young life forever as he is brought into a magical world that resides in his very own Christmas tree and begins the quest to save his Grandfather. Experience his joy along with him as he meets a talking frog who operates the elevator in the trunk of the tree, explore the Christmas tree ornaments where people live inside them! Experience the spooky ghost children that pop up from out of nowhere from time to time, as well as thrill at the sea voyage when the ship Nathan is on is attacked by pirates! That, and so much more! This story is a work in progress and I'll post new chapters as soon as they are finished to my liking. A certain amount of the beginning chapters were once published on Amazon as "Part One." Yet, the complete story will be published here on Wattpad.

Two childhood friends, separated by life, find their way back to each other years later. What's starts as something familiar quickly turns into something deeper-but growing up changes everything, and love isn't always easy the second time around.

First arc. For all my Latin friends reading this For some reason this is number one on the Latino category, arc 2 (Devil's Daughter) has much better Latino representation and features a Latino protagonist. Read that if you're here solely for representation Please vote and follow me if you enjoyed this. 1952, Jersey City. America is turned inside out.

Elena "Leni" DeLuca has always known two things. She was born into hockey. And she was going to fly. Growing up across the street from the Hughes family meant her life was measured in rink lights and driveway pucks, in early morning practices and late-night pasta dinners. Her older brothers chased NHL dreams alongside Jack and Quinn. Her father coached. The houses blurred into one. And Luke Hughes was always there. Quiet. Watchful. Only a few months older, but somehow steadier. From seven years old, they grew up side by side-best friends, constants, the kind of closeness that feels permanent before anyone has the words for it. Leni falls first. Luke resists. Not because he doesn't care-but because caring feels dangerous. Because choosing her means risking the one thing he's never had to question: that she'll always be there. But while Luke hesitates, Leni rises. Her figure skating career takes her far beyond the quiet suburban street they shared-national titles, international podiums, Olympic whispers that turn into reality. By the time she's chasing gold in 2022, the whole world is watching. Including Luke. And distance has a way of clarifying what fear once clouded. When Leni leaves, Luke finally understands: loving her was never the risk. Losing her was. Sometimes you don't fall in love. Sometimes you grow up beside it. And one day... it flips.

1983. Meredith (16) and Leah (16) are two best friends from Altamonte Springs, Florida and County Offaly, Ireland. When Leah decides to move to Sayreville, New Jersey many things change and improve. Will they meet the loves of their lives? Or will they just meet a couple of low riders who will only last a couple of months? All I'm saying is that Chuck Schuldiner and Jon Bon Jovi are NOT low riders.
