What happens when you put 2 real people in a fictional situation and let them respond as they naturally would? Well, in this case, The Unexpected happens. This is the true love story that never happened, with genuine dialogue and communication that unfolded between 2 friends.

Elle is a journalist in Toronto, stuck under the controlling nature of her overbearing editor. Jack is a  Sgt. in Britain's Royal Air Force who meets her when she's forced into writing a series about online dating.

As they begin to communicate, they're both fully confident that their mutual reluctance for a relationship is safe because of their distance and circumstances. That is until, unexpectedly, they are made to deal with the reality of the relationship they've created when they find themselves thrown together in the middle of a war zone. Eventually, they begin to navigate the complicated nature of their lives as they head towards an ending neither of them ever wanted or saw coming.

His Silence, My Storm: Drowning In Hope by manahilalihere

They say love begins in silence. But what happens when the silence lasts too long? This is not a love story about happily ever afters. This is a story about almosts- About late-night conversations that stopped just short of meaning something. About eye contacts that promised more, but always ended in friendship. In Part 1, she loved him quietly. In Part 2, she starts to speak- but still, he doesn't listen the way she hoped. She tries to become his safe place. She tries to heal his fear of attachment. She tries to read his mind, hold his hand without holding it, and love him in a way that feels patient-not desperate. But the more she hopes, the more she drowns. This is the continuation of a one-sided love story that became too heavy to carry. A confession soaked in unsent messages, mixed signals, and a storm of emotions that never found a home. Sometimes, loving someone means letting go. Sometimes, silence is louder than goodbye.

Lost and Found: A Stranded in Paradise Romance by socrates8

Forced to live in close proximity and share survival skills, it didn't take long for the two of us to become attracted to one another. As much as we tried to stay faithful to our partners back home, it was impossible to resist the raw magnetism between us. Expecting it would be a short-term fling precipitated by unusual circumstances, as the weeks passed by without any sign of rescue, I began to think the unthinkable...

Somewhere Between Us by wrizzy_verse

"Loving you is exhausting and hard. Give me a freaking break." he said. "Then why are you still here?", she whispered with a pale and trembling voice, holding back the tears that were willing to fall down her cheeks. Laura never wanted to fall in love with someone she couldn't touch - someone who only existed behind a screen, a voice borne by time zones and poor connections. But Evan made distance seem hazardous. He made every silence burn. "You could've stopped talking to me." she said to him once. "I tried," he said. "You just wouldn't leave my fucking head." Somewhere in between their late-night phone calls and the words they never spoke, something real started to take shape - delicate, wrong, and beautiful. But love such as theirs was going to shatter. It was constructed on waiting, on jealousy, on all the things they couldn't have. And maybe that's the cruelest kind of love - the kind that feels infinite, but ends the moment you wake up. Until Aiden walked in - the man who was real, present, and everything Evan couldn't be. Aman who had actually been beside her even when she broke his heart, even when she drifted away to chase someone who made her heart ache in ways she never imagined. "He doesn't deserve you. please wake up Lau." Aiden told her. "Then why does it still feel like he's the one?" she whispered. "You're crazy." Somewhere between what she wanted and what she needed, Laura lost control. Between time zones and heartbreak, between messages and memories, something between them had shattered. Because sometimes, love doesn't ask you to choose between two people - it asks you to choose which part of yourself you're willing to destroy.
