Noah Floyd and Talia Parker have been best friends since they were toddlers. But as they grew older their passions and differences began to be noticeable. Talia didn't mind it but Noah did. Not only because they were so different but because he had feelings for her and her being so sociable and popular made him anxious.
He was a nerd, loved books and got the highest grades, so when he developed feelings for Talia, he couldn't help but think about her all the time, wondering what she was doing when she wasn't with him, and dying of jealousy when he saw her flirting with other guys.
All that made his grades slip so he decided to distance himself from her. Avoid her at school and pretend he wasn't home when she came to see him. Eventually she stopped texting him, banging on his door and even looking at him. She felt hurt and humiliated.
They haven't spoken since middle school.
But now on their senior year, things will change.

Delicate Disaster
They started as classmates, then friends, then something that didn't quite fit any word. The problem? Neither of them were ready to call it love. They never meant to fall for each other. It just happened quietly, in glances that lingered too long and silences that said too much. What started as teasing and shared notes turned into something heavier, something neither of them dared to name. Elena swears she's fine keeping it undefined, even when her heart stumbles every time his eyes find hers. And Noah he hides behind jokes, behind that easy confidence, pretending he doesn't care when he clearly does. It's the kind of almost love that burns slow, the kind that ruins you softly. Between laughter and denial, comfort and confusion, they walk the line between friendship and something more, too scared to cross it, too scared to let go. __ Friends to something less than lovers, more than bestfriends.
