1980s autumn friendship heartbreak love realisticfiction shortstory tough trust youngadult

"It was awkward and a little clumsy, but all beginnings are. You won't find a true beginning to anything where someone didn't trip, or step on the other's foot, or hang their jacket zipper on the other's sweater. That awkwardness makes it real, and that's what gave me the extra faith that I had in my blooming relationship with Dusty. Ours was a real human connection not some fictional romance like you read in books or see on film."


Main Characters: Dusty Pierce & Layla Carrigan

Silence Between Us by CuddleFics

[18+] - Just a gentle reminder, this story explores themes of deep emotions, complicated relationships, and morally complex dynamics. If these topics feel overwhelming or sensitive, please read with care. This story leans into the more mysterious and darker sides of life. <3 Laim enters Maya's life at a pivotal moment, offering her something she hasn't experienced in a long time- genuine trust and love. Having been betrayed in the past, Maya is deeply guarded and mistrustful. But Laim with his quiet kindness and patience, becomes the steady presence she didn't expect but desperately needed. The tender story of Maya and Laim, two people discovering the depths of love and trust. As their relationship grows, Maya grapples with self-doubt but finds reassurance in Laim's unwavering devotion. Their connection is built on quiet moments, emotional vulnerability, and mutual respect. Laim promises to stand by Maya through all challenges, and together they learn that love doesn't require grand gestures, but sincerity and support. Their love becomes a powerful, comforting force, rooted in understanding and loyalty, creating a bond that assures them both of a bright, shared future ahead. Laim actions speak louder than words. When Maya doubts the possibility of kindness, he proves through his consistency that trust can be rebuilt.

Lily thought she'd buried the past when she packed her bags and left the small town she grew up in behind for the bright lights of the big city.

Ford never really got over Lily, no matter how many years have passed. Seeing her again is like striking a match-suddenly everything they had is blazing back to life. But between long-buried secrets, broken trust, and the life Lily swore she'd never return to, rekindling what they once had might come at too high a price.

Eros ✔ by faeriez

Autumn Lake thought she could have anything she wanted. Despite her father's wealth, there were three things she could never get with money; love, freedom, and friendship. She had never experienced such things. She had always wondered how they felt, for she never felt loved by anyone; not even her own father. She had no one to socialize with other than her maids and her father's coworkers and prestigious clients, because of her father's imprisonment. The only things that she usually did in her spare time were reading novels and countless encyclopedias, which left her to wonder how good and generous the world was. That was until she went to college. Everything she imagined how the world outside would be went topsy-turvy. CREDITS: Cover by: Andini Oktarani
