    They don't mean to stand this close. It just keeps happening. A glance held too long. A shoulder brushing without apology. Silence that says more than words ever could. Jacob notices first - the space shrinking, the quiet tension, the way proximity starts to feel deliberate instead of accidental. Zach doesn't ask questions. He doesn't rush. He just stays. Nothing is named. Nothing is taken. Everything is felt. Standing Too Close on Purpose is a slow-burn story about restraint, awareness, and the quiet gravity of two people learning how close they're willing to stand - even when they're not ready to say why. TRIGGER WARNINGS * Emotional slow burn * Prolonged unresolved tension * Intimacy through proximity and restraint * Touch-adjacent scenes (PG-13) * Quiet emotional conflict (No explicit sexual content) AUTHOR'S NOTE This story lives in the space before anything happens. It's about restraint, about noticing, about choosing not to cross a line even when you could. Touch is minimal. Silence matters. Proximity carries weight. If you're looking for instant payoff, this isn't that story. If you're looking for slow tension, quiet intimacy, and moments that linger longer than they should - welcome. Please be respectful in the comments. No pressure for escalation. Let the stillness speak. Thank you for reading.

    Ollie Ashcroft has always worn his emotions where everyone can see them. At sixteen, his eyes change colour with every feeling - fear, sadness, joy, overwhelm - betraying him long before he can find the words. In a world that asks him to be quieter, calmer, less, Ollie learns to survive by shrinking. Then Elliot Mercer transfers from Canada. Eli doesn't stare. He doesn't ask Ollie to explain himself. He simply stays - steady, observant, and unafraid of what Ollie's eyes reveal. What begins as shared silence grows into something quieter and deeper than either of them expected. As Ollie learns that calm doesn't have to be earned - and Eli learns that love doesn't mean rescuing - they're forced to confront what it means to choose each other without losing themselves. Set in the late 1990s, The Colour of Staying is a slow-burn coming-of-age story about emotional truth, gentle love, and the bravery it takes to remain present - even when leaving might be easier. Trigger Warnings / Content Notes * Emotional overwhelm * Anxiety and panic responses * Sensory overload * Themes of mental health and emotional vulnerability * Discussions of homesickness and change *(No sexual content. All romance is PG-13.)* This is a quiet story. There are no grand declarations here - just moments of choosing to stay, again and again. The Colour of Staying is about emotional honesty without spectacle, love without urgency, and learning that calm doesn't mean empty. Please read gently. Please comment kindly. This story is PG-13 and centred on emotional growth, not explicit content. If you're here for softness, steadiness, and slow-burn connection - you're in the right place. šŸ¤

    Elara arrives in a quiet coastal town carrying a grief she does not speak about. The town watches closely, remembering houses, names, and histories long after people believe they have moved on. Rowan is the boy everyone avoids but never forgets. Noah is the one who offers warmth without questions. Between whispered observations, half-spoken truths, and a lighthouse that refuses to stop shining, Elara begins to realize that being seen is not the same as being known-and that some stories only reveal themselves when you stop running from them. A slow-burn story about memory, loss, and the quiet choices that change us.

    He didn't follow her. He didn't speak to her. He didn't even know why his heartbeat changed when he saw her. Hiba Qureshi lives a quiet, disciplined life-grounded in responsibility, strength, and boundaries she refuses to break. Love isn't something she seeks. Control isn't something she gives. Aahil Siddiqui has everything-money, power, influence. Raised in silence, he learned early that words are unnecessary when presence alone is enough. He doesn't chase. He observes. A fleeting moment at a traffic signal changes nothing... or so it seems. No confessions. No promises. Just glances that linger longer than they should and silences that start to feel heavy. This isn't a story that rushes. It's a story about obsession that grows quietly. About control without touch. About a girl who won't bend-and a man who doesn't need words to claim space in her world. ......

    Some stories don't begin with love. They begin with silence. In a quiet school classroom, where rain taps softly against the windows, Rihaan sits by himself observant, guarded, and more comfortable with sketches than words. He notices details others miss, speaks only when necessary, and carries a pain he never explains. Priya arrives without noise, but with curiosity. She doesn't try to fix Rihaan or force him to open up. She simply notices the empty seat, the unfinished drawings, the silences that feel heavier than words. Slowly, without meaning to, she begins to care. We Never Said It First is a slow-burn story about first attachment the kind that grows quietly, before anyone dares to name it. It's about: missing someone without calling it love understanding before confession pain that enters softly, without explanation and connections built through shared silence rather than spoken promise There are no dramatic declarations here. Only rain, empty benches, unfinished sketches, and feelings that arrive long before words do. This story is for those who believe that love doesn't always begin with happiness sometimes, it begins with concern... and the things we never said first.

    He smiled like he already knew what I was thinking. "You're doing it again." "Doing what?" "Thinking instead of talking." "I like thinking." "I know," he said softly. "But I'd really like to hear you." My heart started racing. "There's nothing to hear." He laughed under his breath. "That's a lie. Your eyes talk way too much." I looked down, trying to hide my smile. And that's when he knew he'd won.

    Two introverts. One forgotten meeting. A memory only one of them remembers. Vida never liked crowds. College was supposed to be a quiet beginning-until she crossed paths with Aarav, the youngest professor on campus. Calm, reserved, and unreadable, he felt oddly familiar in ways she couldn't explain. What Vida doesn't know is that their story didn't begin in a classroom. A year ago, on the day Aarav became a professor, fate played its first trick at a restaurant-an accidental meeting Vida forgot, but Aarav never did. Now, surrounded by corridors, lectures, and unspoken moments, two silences meet again. This time, neither of them can walk away. A story about introverts, quiet bonds, unspoken memories, and the kind of connection that doesn't announce itself-but stays.

    "If things were different..." Jeff's voice trails off. Ivy finishes it for him: "We would've been something, right?" He fell for her when she was still learning how to let people close. She fell for him when he'd already learned how to stay safe behind silence. They walk the same campus, smile the same polite smiles, and avoid the same memories they both keep replaying at night. Jeff doesn't blame her for falling late - he thinks she deserves a love without hesitation. Ivy keeps drifting toward him anyway - a little too curious, a little too attached to the version of him she once imagined. Some stories don't arrive loudly. Some slip in quietly, in the hesitation before a confession, in the space between two hearts that almost touched. A tender, aching slow-burn about timing, courage, and the love that waits in the quiet.

When childhood friend Yang Zhifeng drifts back into her days - helmet under his arm, rain on his sleeves - old memories surface alongside new silences. Between late-night rides, shared meals, and a lantern released into the sky, the city becomes a witness to everything they don't quite say.

    Two artists. One sketchbook. A story about finding connection in a world that never felt built for you. Ash Lyren never planned to stand out. He prefers life behind the scenes - sketching stories, storyboarding dreams, and watching the world through a lens only he understands. Autistic, asexual, and quietly creative, Ash finds order in a life that rarely makes sense. Samantha Pyrel, on the other hand, shines where he fades. Artistic, witty, and secretly unsure of her place, she hides behind smiles and sketchbook pages of her own. When their worlds collide at Eastview High, what begins as a quiet friendship becomes something deeper - two artists learning to be seen for who they are, and to see each other beyond the noise. A story about art, identity, belonging, and the courage it takes to begin - because every connection, like every story, has to start somewhere.
