College life was supposed to be chill-just orgs, barkada, and making it to class on time.
But when Callie starts getting unexpected attention from her Kuya's best friend-the ever-stoic, emotionless Joshua-things begin to feel... complicated.
He's sweet. He's present. He's confusing as hell.
And worst of all?
She might actually be falling.
But what if he's just being nice?
What if she's just overthinking it?
And what if this thing between them...
isn't meant to go beyond Just Between Us?

His close proximity is making me dizzy and my mind is thinking very dirty thoughts. Wait no. I can't think like that anymore. "Kendall." He says hungrily. "You are mine and only mine. You drive me wild and no one else can have you." He says as he attacks my lips. It feels so amazing I can't help but kiss him back. I run my hands through his beautiful hair and he groans into the kiss. Man I don't want this to ever end. I feel drunk on him. I don't think I can let him go. He stops suddenly to finish his thoughts. "No one can make you feel like this. Or kiss you here...." He says as he kisses down my neck. I moan and he smirks pulling his face impossibly close to mine. "..or touch you." He says as he takes his hand and brushes it lightly down my arm and he snakes it back around my back pulling me even closer if that is possible. He finally stops at my ass which he squeezes delightfully and I hum in response. Warning: Contains graphic sexual content. Read at your own discretion. You will not be warned ahead of time.

On an ordinary afternoon, a stray basketball comes flying at her on her way home, knocking her right off balance-literally-into Brandon's world.

That night, fate plays its quiet trick: they bump into each other again while taking out the trash in their apartment building.

Brandon's easy smile and popularity slowly chip away at Tanya's walls, while she grounds him in a way no one else can.

And Brandon, while patient, has his own fears: of being pulled in too many directions and losing what matters most. As college decisions loom and the possibility of separation grows real, both must decide-will they confront the insecurities that threaten to tear them apart, or let timing and distance write the end of their story?Complete
