The local cafe down the street has always been a safe haven for twenty-one year old Roxie Wilson, as well as many others. One day, however, Roxie encounters two enigmas in the cafe -- Mikey, the boy in the back corner table who cries everyday with a pencil in one hand and a journal in the other, and Meera, the sour waitress who seems to be stitched together with bitterness. When the three of them take a step towards each other, it is discovered that they all have one thing in common -- they are all looking for shelter from the storm called "Life." As the storm grows worse, the three grow closer together and learn to build shelters for one another, working to face the storm together.All Rights Reserved

Rejected By My Bestfriend, Accepted By The Badboy by CallMeAnna342

Four years ago, a 13-year-old blackmailed me into friendship by holding my doughnut captive. We've been close ever since. I soon noticed that I wanted to be more than just friends. I was in love with my best friend. But sadly, he didn't feel the same way. I thought my world was over. I was crushed. But to my utmost yet most delighted surprise, I just happened to fall into the arms of a certain bad boy. Literally. He didn't just save me from what could've been a hell of a concussion that night. He saved my heart too. But hey, let's not get in over our heads now. It wasn't that easy. Not even close. After all, when two opposing worlds clash for the very first time, we can't just expect it to be all rainbows and sunshine. Now, do we?

The Boy From Everywhere by ZhennySaley

‼️RATED MATURE FOR MENTIONS OF ABUSE‼️ "You were my one chance at a normal life..." He was a boy who had taken too much jobs but speaks too little about himself. She was a girl who had wandered too much but left too little hope for her future. Their worlds collide one day when misfortune chases the both of them into a common corner, and from then on, both their fates refused to part ways. But as unfortunate as they both may be, their misfortune might just be what leads them to their luckiest charms. [Tw.: mentions of abuse, neglect, and mental health issues.]

Letting Go With Grace by Faisal_Writes

Some people spend their whole lives running from the past. Arthur? He waits for it. In a city that never stops moving, he clings to the ghost of a love that time should have stolen. But when the past walks through his café doors-breathless, untouchable, and just as devastating-he's forced to ask himself: Do we ever truly let go, or do some promises linger forever? A story of missed chances, unspoken words, and the love that refuses to fade. Current word count = 15,565

Perfect Strangers by NightTime_Storiexs

Follow my Instagram for any updates and if you have any questions: @nikki_k123 Alex has been living the same life, with the same routine, repeating it every day. Every day is the same. The one thing she does look forward to is going to cafe de l'amour every morning on her way to school, where she sits and writes, all while seeing Carter Reed. The most popular boy at school who, surprisingly, prefers the solitary life. They go to the same cafe every day, sit at the same tables every day, and notice each other every day, yet are strangers who have never uttered a word to one another. And strangers they shall remain. Perfect strangers. But that's about to change. . . . . . I watched as he kept his eyes trained on the notebook in front of him where he aimlessly drew spirals and coils that surrounded each other, trapped each other, and suffocated each other. My eyes traced the movement of his pen, following each line he drew onto the paper. "Your tea." I snapped out of my trance and looked up, thanking Katy before she went back to the counter. I turned back and caught him looking at me. I expected him to look away and continue acting like I don't exist. Like he's always done and so have I. What I didn't expect was for him to walk right over and sit with me. "Hi, I'm Carter." PSA: This story is inspired by the Wattpad novel 'Caffeine' by @meddlingkids ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
