She's quiet, guarded, and barely keeping it together. Celeste Moran is a girl just trying to survive high school while taking care of her five younger siblings. With all of the responsibility laying on her shoulders, there's no time left for herself-no time to dream or even explore.

He's an outgoing, curious, and adventurous boy who's simply passing all his tests with A's. Josiah Danvers, the school's golden boy, seems to have it all-the freedom and the never-ending sense of wonder.

As they both live their very different lives, their worlds unexpectedly collide. Josiah begins to see the girl no one else has bothered to take notice of. Celeste starts to question if there is so much more to the world outside of her family even if life really sucks sometimes.

Maybe she'll even realize that life really is not so sour.

Emily Walker, a girl who has spent most of her life battling depression and struggling with dark thoughts, finds a sense of solace in a small club at school-The Healing Circle. She makes new friends, including the charming and charismatic Lucas Carter. Over time, Emily begins to develop feelings for Lucas, but she hides them, fearing it could ruin their friendship. Her best friend, Ava, finds out about Emily's feelings and-against Emily's wishes-tells Lucas. However, Lucas doesn't respond in any meaningful way, and Emily's world begins to unravel. She continues to like him but buries her feelings deep inside, unsure of how to move forward. As the story progresses, Emily's internal struggles worsen, and she begins to lose touch with reality. The narrative becomes more fragmented, and Emily starts talking directly to the reader, breaking the fourth wall. This intensifies as she begins questioning her own sanity and whether she can escape the oppressive thoughts that consume her. By the end, Emily's mental state deteriorates, leading to a dramatic conclusion where she's forced to face herself and the truth about her emotions, her friendships, and the scars of her past.

Not the best friend who became her first kiss... her first love... her everything. But when he moved across the world, he left her with nothing but a broken promise and a gold star necklace she still wears like a scar. She swore she'd wait. He swore they'd find each other again. But two weeks after he came back, he was holding another girl's hand. Now it's war. And Lisa's done playing soft. Noah thought leaving Lisa behind would protect them both. He didn't expect to fall apart without her. Neither did he expect to learn the truth-something so brutal it made him question every moment they'd ever shared and see her as a stranger in the skin of the girl he once loved. And he definitely didn't expect to fall into someone else's arms trying to forget the taste of her lips. But Lisa's not the shy girl he left behind. She's colder now. Hotter, too. And every time he looks at her like he hates her, he wants to grab her and make her remember everything. This isn't just a breakup. It's unfinished business. First love never dies. But it might just destroy them both.

Nicolas didn't want friends. Didn't want attention. Definitely didn't want her. But then Lina sat next to him. Every. Single. Day. She talked through the awkward silences, laughed at her own jokes, and asked questions he never answered. She was chaos in sneakers and bubblegum lip gloss - and he wanted nothing to do with her. ...Until he did. Because somehow, her noise started drowning out the thoughts he didn't know how to escape. And her voice became the only thing that made the silence bearable. This isn't a love story. Not at first. This is a story about a boy who lost his spark... And the girl who wouldn't let him disappear quietly. ✅ Nicolas ✅ Lina ✅ "You Talk Too Much" ✅ High school setting ✅ Healing + chaos + slow-burn (Btw I forgot to add that there will be no smut of any kind in this story. Maybe an innocent kiss or something but nothing else)
