Summer's last kiss by zailaaaa010

**"The sun beats down on the warm sand as Sienna, an artistic and kind-hearted girl, finds herself drawn to the beach every day, sketching the beauty of the waves that never seem to stop coming. She didn't expect to meet someone like Liam, a free-spirited surfer whose carefree attitude and love for the ocean mirrors her own yearning for something more than the everyday. Their connection is instant, a spark that lights up the long summer days. But as the days drift by, the reality of their summer fling begins to settle in. Liam is everything she's dreamed of in the moment-wild, adventurous, and impossibly charming-but Sienna knows the summer will end, and with it, the inevitable goodbye. The beach, with all its beauty, becomes a symbol of the fleeting nature of their love. As the days grow hotter, so do the tensions. Noah, Liam's best friend, begins to show an interest in Sienna that neither she nor Liam expected, leading to an unspoken rivalry that threatens the bond they've only just started to build. Meanwhile, Chloe, Liam's ex, reappears, and with her return come rumors and complications that stir doubt in Sienna's heart. Ava, Sienna's protective best friend, warns her that summer loves are rarely meant to last, but Sienna can't ignore the pull between her and Liam. The deeper they fall into their shared moments-surfing, laughing, stealing kisses in the sand-the more they realize how much they mean to each other. But can something this intense survive the inevitable end of summer, or will the drama and the complexity of their emotions be too much to hold on to? With every wave, every sunset, every stolen moment, they are left wondering: will their love survive when the season changes, or will they be swept away by the tide of summer's inevitable end?"**

SMILE ✔︎ by 00Tammy00

I would bet none of you have ever had that dream summer that all of us want.... that summer where you meet a boy on the beach and go surfing even though you don't know how to surf. That summer where you look him in the eyes while he runs his fingers through your hair. That summer where you skateboard along empty streets at sunset and accidentally steal candy from a grocery store. Well, I didn't get that, but I got pretty close to it. Because for the summer I went to an island in the middle of nowhere so my dad could start up a new one of his businesses in his chain of stores. I went to the beach. And I met Royce... Royce was two years older than me and had the prettiest purplish eyes and blonde hair. He was the most charismatic person I'd ever met. Then shortly after me and Royce's first appearance we met Jack and Koa. It was amazing and I loved every second of it, until I realized that I had fallen for Royce. And he seemed to fall for me too! Until another girl came into the mix 𖣔 "Do you hate me or not Royce?" "I wish I never fucking spoke to you because god I hate you so fucking much for making me love you! It's your fucking fault! Fuck you!" "And do you love her?!" "Way more than I will ever love you." #5 in unrequited 12-3-2020 #2 in tearjerker 3-14-2021 #8 in unrequitedlove 5-15-2021
