Until the Stars Knew Us
Some love stories begin with a spark. Theirs began with silence, distance, and the invisible pull of fate. Nova never believed in fairytales - until she met Hunter, the boy who felt like he had stepped straight out of one. With him, every moment was softer, every word heavier, every touch unforgettable. He wasn't just a dream; he was the answer to prayers she never dared to say out loud. But love like this isn't simple. It's fragile, tested by time, by fear, by the world outside their own. And yet, no matter how far they drifted, something always pulled them back - as if the universe itself refused to let go of what was meant to be. Because some bonds are unbreakable. Some hearts are stitched together long before they meet. And some stories... wait for the stars to finally recognize them. This is their story - of love, of longing, of a forever that was written long before they knew it themselves.
