Best friends Calyx and Tia get together finally, on one sucky night, And it was declared a mistake right away- which wasn't really.
And so the plot thickens..
Distancing themselves from one another, to keep up a ruse, both get stupid and make a series of nightmarish mistakes in their lives.
A narrative of erratic, stupid but endearing screw ups- by two people in love but terrified of fully surrendering themselves to each other.
Are they prepared to take a leap of faith to be together or are they doomed to become star-crossed lovers for the rest of their lives for their cowardice?
"All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another." -Anatole France

That Summer (Completed)
Lauren Jules, her twin sister Miranda, and their best friend Jake all grew up together in their own little world. Just three kids having the time of their lives. And then came the summer that changed everything. It was the summer Lauren fell in love with her best friend. It was the summer her family broke apart and she grew up. It was the summer Jake left. Now five years later, Jake is moving back and Lauren is determined to keep her guard up against the boy who stole her heart years ago. But Lauren's not the only one with something to hide, Jake seems to be fighting some demons of his own. His past has changed him from the happy-go-lucky kid he was, to a reckless guy with a smirk for a smile. And he's driving Lauren insane. ****** Excerpt from That Summer "Well I'm surprised," he drawled huskily, playing with a strand of my hair. "You acted like a natural last night." Oh. My. God. What did that even mean? He chuckled at my deer-in-headlights expression. There was no way I would not remember losing my virginity to Jake. Hell, I'd memorize every second of it. "What do you mean?" I asked slowly, my stomach doing somersaults. Please tell me I'm jumping to the wrong conclusion. Pretty please. "Well," he started, a gleam in his eyes. "First, you grabbed the blanket and ripped it right off of me." I blinked at him, a horrified expression on my face. I slapped his hand away from my hair and turned around. Yup, there it was. Lying on the floor, along with my dignity. He continued solemnly. "And then, you climbed up on top of me." Could you die from your face overheating? I waited for my embarrassment to be complete as he tapped his chin, thoughtfully. "Yeah, that's about it." That's it? THAT'S IT? So I hadn't completely thrown myself at him. Just a tad. And the prize for the unluckiest luckiest horndog of the year goes to Lauren Can't Keep Her Hands To Herself Jules. I grabbed the pillow and smacked him over the head with it. Hard.Complete
The Game of Hearts
Credit to @Hey-Angel21 and my friend Lola who each helped me write some of it! Check out @Hey-Angel21 's stories and Lola's Pinterest: www.pinterest.com/lolahavens/ Blurb: Odd things happen, odd things have always happened. Some get captured on tape, some people tell them as stories that get passed down for years. Some odd things remain silent, floating between the people it happened to, untold and unshared. Some remain untold because they have been forgotten, left behind or replaced. While others are pushed away because of embarrassment or fear. And some don't wish to be shared. This one story is not just one odd thing, it's so many odd things, all rolled into one odd occurrence. Of one girl, one friend, one cousin, one group of prestigious girls, a secret and several suspects. Annabel never expected it to go so out of control, but how can she stop it, except pushing it away, forgetting it and lying to get it all out of her life? Annabel moves on, hoping to never think of it again. But this odd occurrence is determined not to be forgotten and once again forces itself into her life. She must lie left and right to avoid it. But is that what she really wants?Complete

My Summer Crush
Have you ever fallen in love for the first time? Well... I haven't - not until he came into my life. They say love happens when you least expect it - when your heart suddenly beats like a ticking time bomb, and you don't even know why. That's when you realize... you're in love. 💞 But what if you already felt that spark - and instead of confessing, you stayed quiet because you were scared? Scared that you're too young. Scared to ruin what's already there. Scared to lose him. Love can really be funny sometimes. Girls hide their feelings out of fear, while boys pretend not to care - because pride gets in the way. And when both stay silent, love turns into a beautiful what-if. But maybe... this story isn't just about "what-ifs." Maybe it's about destiny. Every summer, we meet again. Every time, my heart races the same way. Is it fate... or just another coincidence? I used to believe accidents were dangerous, but ever since I met him, I started to think - maybe some accidents are meant to happen. This is the story of how my summer turned into something unforgettable - the story of laughter, confusion, and a love I never meant to fall into. Will it be destiny that brings us together in the end? Find out in "Summer of Accidental Hearts." 🌸Complete

I'll see you in hell
"No way in hell are we mates," Cameron spat, his greenish-blue eyes glinting with hatred as he sneered at me. Ignoring the sensation of my heart breaking, I lifted my head, pushing back the tears brimming in my eyes and glared at him, clenching my hands in a fist behind my back as my wolf howled in pain. "Then it's settled. I reject you as my mate Clara Smith. I don't ever want to see you again, you pathetic mute worthless loser," he shot back, walking away before I could punch the shit out of him. 'I'll see you in hell Cameron!' I mentally yelled, flipping him the bird at his retreating back. As soon as he turned the corner, I dropped the smirk on my face and slid down the wall until I was huddled on the floor and letting a solitary tear leak out of my eye as my composure crumbled. ********************************* Clara Smith and Cameron Claw are sworn enemies since the day the accident happened. So when they find out that they're mates, Cameron immediately rejects her. Broken to the core and missing her wolf, Clara turns to her family for support only to realise that the alpha's son rejecting her is the final straw.
