Sage Dawson ran away from the states and moved to London to get away from her past. Sage is normally not one to run away from her problems, but in this case, she felt that she had no other choice but to run. Sage is Philophobic, she hates being around guys, talking to them, meeting them. She thinks all guys are the same. Selfish. But Sage has good reason to think that way.
Oscar Brown is the sweetest, kindest man you could meet. With his red curly hair, freckles, and ice blue eyes, no doubt that he gets attention from guys and girls alike.
When Sage meets and gets to know Oscar, she realizes something. She's slowly falling for him. And it terrifies her. But she can't help but want to be around him. It's hard not to. Especially when he lives two doors down from her apartment.
Will Sage let herself love Oscar? Or will she let her fear distance herself, yet again, from someone who cares for her?

Sorry if this description sucked.... I'm terrible at them... But I promise this story is great.
Also working on the title, I don't really like it and will probably change it later.

Tell Me How It Ends (the Novella)
I kissed him. I slept next to him. I thought maybe, for once, this would go somewhere. Instead, he blocked me. Sage wasn't supposed to fall for Alex. He was a distraction. A hookup. A maybe-I'll-regret-this-but-who-cares kind of night. But somewhere between cheap beer and his stupid smile, she started to feel safe with him. Seen. Like maybe she wasn't too much. Then he disappeared. No explanation. No goodbye. Just silence where he used to be. Now Sage is trying to move forward-drinking too much, overthinking everything, and rewriting the story in her head just to make it hurt less. Meanwhile, Alex is unraveling. And every chapter takes us further back through the mess he made.

Endless
*2021 Watty Award Shortlister* ** I scanned his face, taking in all of his features. His eyes were large, shockingly so, and his eyelashes were long, accentuating that honey gaze. His lips were blush pink, his cheeks taking on the same tint in the nipping air. I glanced at his neck as he swallowed before my gaze returned to his eyes. "You can't do that," he spoke, turning back onto his back. "Do what?" "Look at me." "I can't look at you?" I echoed. "Not like that." ** They say you meet the person you fall in love with when you least expect it. For Sage and Angel, this is especially true. After a run in at a party, Sage and Angel find themselves on a winding road of discovery, heartbreak, acceptance, trauma, and healing. Throughout their journey, they learn about one another, about themselves, and about life itself, and in ways they'd never imagined. "It is such a happiness when good people get together - and they always do." - Jane Austen TW/CW: This story contains implications and descriptions of sexual harassment (Parachute, Happy Birthday, All The Fun, Buzzkill), attempted sexual assault (Parachute, Bad Professor), sexual assault (Parachute, Bad Professor), abuse (Leaving), and homophobia (Leaving, A Visit).
