"Because, I think I like you a lot more than I let on." he whispered to her with the excited smile of a school boy.
Diana tried to hide the small smile that erupted on her face by looking down at her shoes. Josh placed his hand gently under her chin, forcing her to look at him.
"What makes you think that I feel the same way?" she said with an unconvincing crease of her eyebrows and a blush that covered her cheeks betraying her opposing words.
Josh kept looking at her, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"Fine. I think you're right." she conceded quietly.

Waiting Until Dawn {Mike Monroe x Reader}
"Back to this hellhole, huh?" "I wouldn't call it a hellhole" He mutters. "Oh, but I would." I snap harshly. He almost flinches. "(Y/n), I'm sorry. It wasn't supposed to get out of hand like that..." I cut him off. "I know. But I can't believe you would ever think of doing that. It's cruel!" He looks away in shame. "I'm sorry." He says again. "It's not me you should have apologized to." I say, hot tears threatening to spill. I didn't know who to feel about him. I was so completely in love with him, maybe I still am, but they were my best friends. I just wish everything could have been different.Complete
Michelle's ex-boyfriend
No, no, no. no! This can't be true what in the devil's name? Why am I seeing Jaro Briggs? After 20 fucking years. Did I lose my mind? "What are you doing here?" I asked scared, tense, humiliated and feeling every fucking feeling. "I might ask you the same." He said with a smirk. Damn him how in the world is he still managing to look that hot. He hasn't changed much except aged a bit yet looking lesser than his age. "This is my house for goddamn sake," I yelled. "I thought this was Mr Holder pipes house." "I am his wife. Which makes this house also mine!" "So you are a married woman with kids ? How riveting yet dumbfounding". He said. Is he complimenting me or commenting on me? "What did think I would be? A pole dancer?" I sighed. "More or less. Yet you have remained that beast always devouring anything that gets in its way." He accused. How dare he talk to me in this way, in my very own house. "It's been almost 20 years, Jaro don't act like you still know me!" I called out. "Is it so? Then why do I see you staring at my pants ?" He said with that damn smirk again. Why in the hell he showed out of nowhere and tormenting me? What he and I had is in past. Water under the bridge. "Don't tell me you still expect me to do all the things we did as teenagers." He said calmly. ************************ Michelle is an ordinary vet doctor, with a lovable husband, charismatic daughter and stupendous son.

Even more complicated when her daughter Lana is strangely attracted to him. Does fate have its twisted way of unravelling her past with her family?

To Kiss Kate
Katiya Carpenter was born and raised in a perfectly small beach town. She spent her summers with the well-off "summer kids" and her best friends, she worked at the diner, and was top of her class. Life was good, until it wasn't. Eventually, Kate finds herself cheated on and unsure of her future. Until the Michaels move into town for the summer. And it might just happen that Jackson Michaels is exactly what she needs. ----------- I turned back to my friends, my eyes instantly running into Jack's. He was standing in front of the bleachers with Hendricks and a few other guys, talking to Genny. Jack was staring at me, as soon as I turned he flipped his head the other way. But it was too late. "Jack, right?" I said, smiling and getting his attention. "Yeah. You're Katiya, Kate." He gave me a dazzling smile. It made me smile back at him. "I mean, most people just pick one of the options, not both." He chuckled a little and took a step towards me. "Both is good. Who are you here to see?" He asked, looking around, and past me. "Nobody in particular." I seemed to say easily, even though I was in fact, here to watch Jason and my dad. "I mean, everyone. I know a lot of people. Small town." I tried to correct myself immediately, and I noticed Hannah holding back laughter as I stumbled on my words. "Gotcha." He said, still smiling wide and taking a glance back at the field. "Good to see you again, Katiya Kate." This time he said it as if it were one word. It made me smile on the inside. He turned and jogged back towards his team. I was such an idiot.Complete![TOMORROW.

Colby Brock x Reader | A Chance Just For Me
I could see his hand start swinging to hit me, and I awaited for the impact, but it never came. I opened my eyes to see Colby holding his wrist, in a pretty tight grip I may add. "You're about to hit a girl in public. Is there something wrong in your head. Are you that crazy Josh?" My eyes widen. Colby knows who Josh is? Josh rolls his eyes and yanks his wrist from Colby's hand. "It's not anything new. She's been through it before." I see Colby's jaw clench, and he raised his fist, and lands a hard punch to Josh's nose. I her a satisfactory crunch. Josh cries out, and holds his hands over his nose. "You broke my nose!" I smirk at him. "Oh boo hew. If you're in so much pain, then you can drive yourself to the hospital." Josh's eyes widen. Those were the last words he heard from me.Complete

So she smiled, studied hard, and stayed on top. But deep down, she wanted something different. Something more her. And just when she thought she had it all under control, he showed up.

You Talk Too Much
Nicolas didn't want friends. Didn't want attention. Definitely didn't want her. But then Lina sat next to him. Every. Single. Day. She talked through the awkward silences, laughed at her own jokes, and asked questions he never answered. She was chaos in sneakers and bubblegum lip gloss - and he wanted nothing to do with her. ...Until he did. Because somehow, her noise started drowning out the thoughts he didn't know how to escape. And her voice became the only thing that made the silence bearable. This isn't a love story. Not at first. This is a story about a boy who lost his spark... And the girl who wouldn't let him disappear quietly. ✅ Nicolas ✅ Lina ✅ "You Talk Too Much" ✅ High school setting ✅ Healing + chaos + slow-burn (Btw I forgot to add that there will be no smut of any kind in this story. Maybe an innocent kiss or something but nothing else)
Unsent Letters to Justin
Nayomi Clarke was thirteen when she met the very first boy who made her feel the butterflies. He was everything she was looking for. Tall, built, brown eyes, and extremely kind. Now eighteen and soon graduating, she is still in love with the boy who makes her heart stop from just smiling. As it's their last year in highschool, Nayomi will never graduate from her status as being stuck in a one sided love she knew couldn't get rid off easily. It was too late that Nayomi realized that if they went separate ways for college, she sees herself chasing after him. Justin Reinhart was every girl's ideal type. He is confident yet undeniably humble. A gentleman with pure intentions and is very friendly. Courage was all she needed. Confidence and bravery were in the list too but how can Nayomi tell him how she feels if she is so insecure and overthinks a lot? If she doesn't confess her love to him, she will regret not telling him all her life and the weight on her shoulders will never disappear. So Nayomi decided to write him letters to express her sincerity and tell him all the things she could have done and said but wouldn't and send it to him. But as time flew, she found her letters piling after pile after pile.
