Steven Easton(27) and his niece, Ava(9), just moved up to suburban Iowa from the roughest small town in Alabama.  Steven grew up with next to nothing. His mom cared more about alcohol than her kids, and it eventually took her life due to liver cancer. Stacey, Steven's sister robbed a bank about five years ago, causing Steven to take on the responsibility of legally raising Ava. He had taken her in when she was a baby though because he didn't want another child to grow up like he did. Steven reunited with his father last month, and he's trying to process that. The reason why they chose Iowa is because Steven's aunt, Jen, offered him a job at the best middle school in Iowa. He was a well-known teacher in Alabama because he was one of the few teachers who genuinely cared about his students. That was why his aunt had confidence in hiring him. But will he be able to get along with other adults here in Iowa? He was so used to being liked and listened to in Alabama. Is anyone going to notice him here? Everyday a new entry will be produced, walking us through his interesting journey.

A Love Letter Under The red Bud Tree written by Katie Carmack by Mandalorioan
22 parts Ongoing
Emily, a shy American girl, moves to the Amish community in Buffalo, Missouri, where she meets Jacob, a handsome Amish cowboy, at a local grocery store. They begin exchanging heartfelt letters under an old red bud tree, with Jacob teaching Emily Pennsylvania Deitsch. Emily's baking skills, especially her cinnamon rolls and pecan pie, win over Jacob's family and the community. They celebrate their first anniversary with traditional Amish customs, surrounded by love and support from their community. Their journey is marked by faith, love, and the joy of finding a true home in each other. Jacob and Emily's twins, a boy named Ethan, and a girl named Lily, brought even more joy and love into their lives. Each child had a unique personality that complemented their parents and enriched their family dynamic. Ethan was a curious and adventurous boy, always eager to explore the world around him. He inherited Jacob's love for animals and the outdoors, often spending hours playing with the farm animals and helping with chores. Ethan had a natural talent for building things, much like his father, and he loved working alongside Jacob on various projects around the farmhouse. His inquisitive nature and boundless energy kept everyone on their toes, and his laughter was a constant source of happiness. Lily, on the other hand, was gentle and thoughtful, with a deep love for books and stories. She shared Emily's shyness but had a quiet confidence that shone through in her creative pursuits. Lily loved to sit with Emily in the kitchen, learning to bake and listening to stories about their family's journey. She had a talent for drawing and often filled the farmhouse with her beautiful artwork, capturing the serene landscapes and moments of their life in Hiroshima. Lily's compassionate nature made her a beloved friend to everyone in the community.

Bless you hellichk.tumblr.com for this absolutely lovely cover I want to print and frame it and keep it forever. I DO NOT take any credit for their art. Steve(21) Hasn't had a chance to leave this awful place. He has stayed around for the kids, wanting nothing more to be there for each one's graduation. Confused. Lonely. Depression has really started to hit in the last couple of years after all of the tragic losses to the upsidedown. Nearly losing everything and everyone he's cared for and loved. Most everyone has gotten their chance to escape, Nancy and Jonathan moved to California after graduation. Robin's off at college. Until he realizes maybe he's not so alone here, sparking a true friendship with the most unlikely person, Eddie Munson. Eddie(22) hasn't been able to get out of this town either after swearing he would get the hell out of here many years ago. The kids are all graduating this year, which will most likely end up giving the two now men, no reason to stick around anymore. But what will happen to the two friends when Steve realizes the feelings he's thought for so long to just be a platonic friendship have always been a little more? I do not own rights to the ST characters or themes but I do own rights to my own storyline. I will be using pictures from artists that I find as the art for each chapter. I don't think I could draw enough to cover a whole book so pls don't credit me for those either. Thx. 🙏 ~🖤K
Her Teacher's Muse by KaleeSier
54 parts Complete Mature
After her parents died, Erika didn't care about anything. Not her friends, not school, nothing. Except for her art. Painting was the only thing that she felt kept her close to her mother, terrified that sharing it meant she would lose her for good. This year was her final year and her aunt forced her to take an art class. Erika promised to try and open up a bit more. Who knew, maybe this is what she needed to find her passion. Find that love her mother said was the secret to her greatest paintings. And rumor was, the new art teacher from Dublin had everyone talking. Stefan grew up tough. His father was an alcoholic that forced him into rugby while his mother was a tough bitch who wanted him to teach as she did. Sketching was the only place he felt he could show his emotions. His mother kicked out his father after he beat the bloody daylights out of his son for wanting to be an artist. Being an art teacher was the best compromise to do what he wanted and please his mother. Right out of university, he took a job at some private school in Paris. This was going to be his fresh start. Hopefully helping these rich kids to find their passion for art would help himself. But all his plans blew out the window when he walked in the first day of class to see Erika Monet sitting silently at her desk, those stunning silver eyes staring right into his very core. He knew student relationships where a bad idea, but she had just stolen his heart and he was helpless against it.
