When George Shaw tries to find a plan for the last fifteen days to spend with his best friend, who he's had a crush on for as long as he can remember, all he needs is a map to plot out a road trip and his daily horoscope to boost his confidence.

On a trip full of adventure, he needs to decide what's next: will he confess his feelings to Abby or let her slip from his fingers?

Carrying his unease and his unfulfilled summer plan on his shoulder, George went to the City of Ocean where his life was about to be changed forever after meeting Leah. Leah was not just a stranger who barged into his life on one hot afternoon on the beach, but also came along with a mischievous gleam in her eyes and a plan of her own. Would George dare to go with her plans? Or Leah was going to be too much to handle? The story is complete. More than 50.000 words. This story is competing in #Wattys 2023.
To Love Me Like That by lucy-albright
9 parts Ongoing Mature
Tatum Ellsworth has a secret. Not the kind you giggle over during a sleepover or scribble about in a diary. It's heavier than that-complicated, messy, and silently crushing her. She's in love with her best friend, McKenna Langston. They've been inseparable since what feels like forever. Late-night drives, endless conversations at the beach and jokes no one else could ever understand. Tatum knows everything about McKenna; her favourite songs, the way she cries during sad movies. But there's one thing McKenna doesn't know- the way Tatum's heart stumbles every time they touch or how she lies awake some nights wondering what it would feel like to be loved by her. Senior year brings in pressure from everywhere- college deadlines, expectations, and the growing fear that everything is about to change. And when cracks start to show through in McKenna's picture perfect relationship, Tatum is forced to confront the one question she's been avoiding but can't stop thinking about: What if there's a chance she feels the same way? Telling the truth could ruin everything they've ever made. But staying silent might hurt even more.

Every Time You Looked Away by ParkAaimin
50 parts Complete
Scarlet Rogers never believed in second chances... not for love, and certainly not for the man who once broke her heart like it meant nothing. When her ex returns to their friend circle with a new girl on his arm and that same smirk on his face, Scarlet does the unthinkable. She kisses Asher Ellesmere. Quiet, unreadable Asher. The man who sketches the world in silence, speaks in shadows, and watches everything like it's a story worth telling. Their lips meet under the salty breeze of a beach bonfire, and just like that, a lie is born. They'll pretend. For a month-long holiday soaked in sun and wine, laughter and late-night swims, they'll hold hands, share blankets, and trade glances meant to burn. But somewhere between pretending to smile and actually meaning it, between stolen kisses meant for show and the soft way his fingers brush hers when no one's looking, Scarlet begins to wonder... What if this lie feels more like home than the truth ever did? As the days stretch and the waves keep time, hearts tangle in quiet moments. And by the time the ex starts to notice... Scarlet's not sure she even cares. Because Asher...soft-spoken Asher, who never asked her to fake anything...is starting to feel like the one thing she never knew she needed.

Geno has spent most of her life trying to hold everything together, school, work, and the constant worry that it could all fall apart. When her three best friends plan one last summer trip before senior year, she almost says no. But two months in a cabin by a Montana lake might be exactly what she needs to slowly slow down and breathe again. Between late-night talks, nonstop laughter, and long days under open skies, Geno starts to remember what it feels like to just exist. And somewhere in the middle of it all, she begins to notice the quiet way VJ looks at her, the same VJ who's hated his Valentine's Day name forever, and who's been part of her life for as long as she can remember. But every summer has to end. What starts as a simple escape turns into the moment everything changes, friendships, feelings, and the person Geno thought she was. A heartfelt coming-of-age story about growing up, holding on, and finding love in the calm between the chaos.
