"We almost loved once" I say, tears forming at the memory.
"It was walking through the city at night and trying to see the stars."
"Seeing each other at school, but pretending we didn't. Sitting by the pier talking about everything and nothing."
"Almost love is the worst. It's full of I should haves or I could haves and definitely a bunch of what-ifs."
"When it could have worked out if the time were right, but it wasn't and your heart aches thinking it was."
"We really did almost make it, and if I could have almost made it with anyone I'm glad it was with..."
Sometime the universe gives you your Happily Ever After you just don't see the hour glass that goes along with it. And in the case of Alec and Zaire the sand runs out way before they thought it would.

Meeting Luke in 27 Days
"I know it doesn't makes sense, to wait for someone for so long just because I am holding on to his promise that he will come back to me. He might have even forgot about that, but still..." I choked as I am trying not cry. "Here I am, looking forward to see him after 7 long years, expecting him to tell me that he's coming back for me." I told her as tears flowed from my eyes. "Adam was right, I never loved anyone but Luke. It was always been Luke for me even if I have exactly no idea what I am for him now. I was just his past, his highschool sweetheart."Complete
Cold Him Bright Her
She loved him for as long as she could remember. Her best friend's older brother. Off-limits. Untouchable. And completely unaware. Every time she got close, he pushed her away- cold words, distant eyes, like she was nothing at all. Now she's in a new city, chasing fashion, chasing freedom. Trying-really trying- to forget him. But he's still here. Still cold. Still the only boy who makes her heart ache. He told himself she meant nothing. Too young. Too close. Too dangerous. But now she's older- and impossible to ignore. She's done chasing. He's done pretending. And neither of them is ready for what comes next. Because sometimes the person you tried hardest to push away... Is the only one your heart has been waiting for.Complete
Somewhere Between Us
"Loving you is exhausting and hard. Give me a freaking break." he said. "Then why are you still here?", she whispered with a pale and trembling voice, holding back the tears that were willing to fall down her cheeks. Laura never wanted to fall in love with someone she couldn't touch - someone who only existed behind a screen, a voice borne by time zones and poor connections. But Evan made distance seem hazardous. He made every silence burn. "You could've stopped talking to me." she said to him once. "I tried," he said. "You just wouldn't leave my fucking head." Somewhere in between their late-night phone calls and the words they never spoke, something real started to take shape - delicate, wrong, and beautiful. But love such as theirs was going to shatter. It was constructed on waiting, on jealousy, on all the things they couldn't have. And maybe that's the cruelest kind of love - the kind that feels infinite, but ends the moment you wake up. Until Aiden walked in - the man who was real, present, and everything Evan couldn't be. Aman who had actually been beside her even when she broke his heart, even when she drifted away to chase someone who made her heart ache in ways she never imagined. "He doesn't deserve you. please wake up Lau." Aiden told her. "Then why does it still feel like he's the one?" she whispered. "You're crazy." Somewhere between what she wanted and what she needed, Laura lost control. Between time zones and heartbreak, between messages and memories, something between them had shattered. Because sometimes, love doesn't ask you to choose between two people - it asks you to choose which part of yourself you're willing to destroy.
Until the Stars Knew Us
Some love stories begin with a spark. Theirs began with silence, distance, and the invisible pull of fate. Nova never believed in fairytales - until she met Hunter, the boy who felt like he had stepped straight out of one. With him, every moment was softer, every word heavier, every touch unforgettable. He wasn't just a dream; he was the answer to prayers she never dared to say out loud. But love like this isn't simple. It's fragile, tested by time, by fear, by the world outside their own. And yet, no matter how far they drifted, something always pulled them back - as if the universe itself refused to let go of what was meant to be. Because some bonds are unbreakable. Some hearts are stitched together long before they meet. And some stories... wait for the stars to finally recognize them. This is their story - of love, of longing, of a forever that was written long before they knew it themselves.
Where Love Left Scars
"We said goodbye for the sake of growing up. But growing up didn't mean moving on." At Rosebridge University, Mirabel and Caden meet again-not as lovers, but as best friends carrying unspoken history. They broke up in high school when Mirabel's grades slipped, and she blamed the distraction of love. Caden let her go, believing they'd find their way back someday. But now that "someday" is here, everything is more complicated than he ever imagined. She's stronger. He's quieter. And their hearts? Still speaking the language of "what ifs." But in between stolen glances, late-night talks, and buried memories, their story is far from over. Because sometimes, letting go was never the end. It was just the pause before everything changed.Complete
