A coffee is just a coffee, right?
	Wrong.
	17 year old Sebastian, singer-songwriter, has been working at a coffee shop for the last year, and needs the job more desperately than the owner, Peggy, realizes.

        17 year old Eve, wander-lusting literature enthusiast, has been visiting the café with a pile of books for the last few weeks since her father was diagnosed with skin cancer.

        However, as mortgage repayments and a dwindling supply of customers begin to hit the café hard, it faces an imminent closure, and Sebastian and Eve learn that a coffee is more than just a coffee; it's a lifeline. On a turbulent journey through friend-zones, hospitals, blogs and skinny lattes with whipped cream, they must fight to find hope in their dead-end futures, and perhaps find something worth fighting for in each other, too.

Coffee Stains on my Heart [WIP] by WearyTeen34

"Not the best story, but it certainly has charm." - Myself In the relentless pace of New York City, Liam, an overworked and nihilistic young barista at Starbucks, finds an unexpected spark in the monotony of brewing lattes. His bleak worldview is challenged when he encounters Lucia, a vibrant soul unafraid to embrace life's uncertainties. Unbeknownst to Liam, Lucia is grappling with a secret battle against cancer, choosing to shield him from the harsh reality of her illness. Their romance unfolds against the backdrop of clinking coffee cups and the constant hum of the city that never sleeps. In the anonymity of Starbucks aprons, Liam and Lucia's connection becomes a refuge from the cold indifference of their individual struggles. Lucia's zest for life becomes a counterpoint to Liam's nihilism, creating a delicate balance that neither expected. As they explore the city's hidden gems, from tucked-away bookstores to cozy jazz clubs, Lucia's health begins to deteriorate. Liam, entrenched in his apathetic worldview, is unaware of the storm brewing within their shared moments. When the truth surfaces, their love is put to the ultimate test. Will Liam finally realize to appreciate beauty in life, or will this event just further push him into deeper distaste for the world?

I try not to stare most of the time, but for some reason, tonight, I just couldn't look away. I've seen many pretty girls before in so many different places; Including the light rail, but for some reason tonight, she was just so much lovelier than any other girl I've ever seen. Why am I even getting worked up over her anyways? It's not like I'll ever see her again. Well, that's a perfect excuse to keep looking! I'll never see her again, so why does it matter if I continue to look. Well then, that settles it. I'll continue to look... He was right. Normally, when I see a cute girl, I'm like eh, but because she's just so pretty, and also because I don't have much time left, I might as well. "I mean, come on dude, You might as well." What a perfect sign. I just said it, and now he just said it. Definitely means I gotta do it. I wanted to text him back to let him know I was going to. Even though he probably thinks ill chicken out at the last second. "Your right. I might as well."

The Picture in My Locket by imberryxz

London's chilly weather has to be one of my favourites. Especially when walking through the streets at night with almost no one around. The silence of the empty city is only heard by one of my ears as I have one AirPod in. I finally go inside the pharmacy, making my way to the hair products aisle. Picking up a vanilla-scented pair of shampoo and conditioner, I head to the self-checkout. I pay for my purchase and walk out the automatic doors, bumping into someone almost instantly. The sound of a heavy object hitting the ground startled me and I look over to the person asking if they're okay, I'm met with the green-eyed gaze of a man who held my arm to help me not fall like the thing that was on his back, which looks like a guitar case... Is it broken?! - This story is based on the song "No One Knows" by Stephen Sanchez featuring Laufey. - Lana decided to enjoy her early 20s as a physical education student and just moved to London, but only knows Charlotte, a girl she met during a trip to the city almost a decade ago. When she arrived Charlotte introduced her to Owen, who has been her best friend since birth. Lana started working as a barista and met Isaac, a man who was classmates with Owen a couple years back, and is also her coworker who seemed to enjoy playfully hitting on her, or making her life a living hell, as she would say. They can't live around each other without their usual bickering sessions that seem to never come to an end, yet, they're in the same friend group. // *I don't write smut, so please don't ask me to :) // 02/01/2025 - #35 friendgroup 10/01/2025 - #27 coworkers 11/01/2025 - #24 barista 10/01/2025 - #23 suggestive 10/01/2025 - #4 gentlelove

Caleb has a gift: He can sing. But not sing just like any other kid, he might as well be the next pop star of the century. But... no one knows about it because he sings in secret. Why, you ask? Well, it's because he doesn't want others to know him. He's extremely shy. Yep that's right. Caleb is just as shy as how much he loves to sing. His introverted self doesn't allow him to just sing whenever he wants. So he finds time whenever he's alone. When at last everyone leaves him alone, oh how amazing and wonderful his voice echoes out all along the walls of anywhere he can be alone. His amazing talent, however, one day lures in an audience. Together with his newfound 'friend' sworn to keep his singing secret, they find a way to make Caleb's talent known and help him finally face his demons: attention. ----------------------------------------------------------- This is my first attempt at a short story.

Wanderlust ✓ by AnxietyIsMyWeakness

When introverted Paige Lewis unexpectedly wins a radio contest, she didn't know she would be off to Florida for a week with confident Parker Collins, the star soccer player at her rival high school. The two are forced to attend the Wanderlust music festival together and after they get over the initial dislike for one another, will attraction form? And when they return home to their very different lives, can they find the time for love? ••• I followed Parker down the hall and he unlocked our door, holding it open for me. As soon as the click of the door closed, he cornered me against it, his hands on either side of my head. I held in a breath because of his proximity. "I've been wanting to kiss you since the day I met you," he voiced honestly and nudged his nose against my own. "You taste so good, Paige, you don't even know." I looked away, not being able to handle his words but he quickly brought his index finger under my chin to bring my face back to his.
