Robin never really made it a priority to keep his life clean, orderly, and germ free. He was in university, how was he supposed to balance cleaning and studying? At least that's what he thought, until he found himself cleaning up after a run in with a severe germaphobe, Evelyn Walker. Suddenly, his senior capstone in psychology was not as important anymore: all that mattered was Evelyn and dirt.
After all, a little dirt never hurt anyone, right?

Lottie and Rowan's story: "You count to four." I state after a moment of silence. "I count to four and my safe number is three. You have turned everything upside down. Three, six, nine... Was what I used to think in. I used to check the door, the oven, the lights. But nine is not a multiple of four, it fucked me up." "Rowan I knew. I knew you were counting to four. You had four marks. You did the four fingers. You would kiss me in fours. But it is still not my fault." "I never said it was."Complete
Not Today | ✔️
Evelyn Sable liked order, she craved it. And, for all intents and purposes, she was good at maintaining it. At least, that was what she thought. When Tristan Montgomery first walked through the library doors, she hadn't known that he wouldn't just be walking into the library, but into her life. What she really didn't know that with his presence, he would steal any semblance of order she had. What she last expected, though, was that while stealing her order... he'd end up stealing her heart. ✧✧✧ She cleared her throat. "How about we settle on not today?" "Hmm?" he murmured, looking into her hazel eyes, which she hoped appeared as earnest as she felt in that moment. "Sometimes, you're just not ready to be open about something personal, and that's okay. So, instead, tell me someday, just not today," she said. "Not Today?" he said as if testing the words, before a smile settled upon his face. "I like that."Complete
Walk With Me
(DISCONTINUED) I walked all the way to the park. I waited every day for at least thirty minutes. I walked back my confidence withering. Every. Single. Time. I was tired of waiting, I had my hopes up for way too long. One more walk, one more wait. He will be there. And he was. Lost on the path of not only life but her own decisions, Harlow Swan takes a chance to find her long lost friend, or crush, should I say. Meeting up with him again after two years, she realizes that maybe life wasn't so bad after all, and maybe there were some things that weren't as horrible as she thought. But not long after, things begin to go downhill, and her hopes begin to crumble. Harlow thinks that maybe once she's put her life back together, along with her hope, maybe everything would be normal again. But maybe everything wasn't meant to be normal, maybe it was all meant to be awful and way too truthful for her liking. It isn't just any normal story, after all; it's hers.Complete

Breathe. {Rydellington AU}
Ellington Ratliff knew something was up when he was 14. Coughing, hacking, wheezing. It didn't make sense until his whole life was turned upside down by this stupid thing called cystic fibrosis. Sure, he had always been the social outcast. But with that stupid oxygen machine he had to drag around with him, he sure was getting more attention then he liked. From people that weren't necessarily... kind. He had learned to deal with it for 3 years. Then, he met her. ~ Rydel Lynch was what you considered 'popular.' Lots of friends. Lots of fame. She had to keep up her image as a good person, after all. She never noticed those people that were stumbling beneath her throne. Nor did she want to. She was assigned a school project to visit a patient at the nearest hospital and interview them. Then, she met him.Complete
Life's Unexpected Turn
When the person you love becomes the one you fear most, survival becomes the only thing that matters. Parker Avery is a creative teacher and talented artist trying to rebuild her life after escaping a past filled with lies, betrayal, and unimaginable abuse. Moving to a new city offers her a chance to breathe again, to rediscover who she is beyond the scars she carries. Bailey Adams is a kindhearted college student who once believed she had the perfect life. But the woman she fell in love with has slowly become someone cruel and dangerous. Trapped in a relationship built on manipulation, fear, and violence, Bailey finds herself losing the person she used to be. When Parker and Bailey's lives unexpectedly cross, neither of them are ready to trust again. Both carry wounds that run deeper than anyone can see, and both fear that happiness may simply be something meant for other people. Yet sometimes healing begins in the most unexpected ways. The question is whether these two broken souls will find the strength to face their pasts and open their hearts... or if the damage done to them will keep them apart forever. _____________________________________________ Please note that the imagery used in my chapters are not 100% mine.

in too deep | Rewriting

But is having anxiety the end of the world? Mason Stewart doesn't think so. **** Evelyn is the new girl of Gateway High where she wants to finish her senior year without making herself vulnerable, keeping her anxiety and craziness a secret and without falling in love.

But after having a panic attack right in his arms, tables turn for Evelyn.
