Annabelle hadn't wanted to burn the restaurant down initially. 

In all honesty, she had been in a good mood. The food smelled great, the weather was perfect, and the boy she had met on Tinder looked like an absolute snack in all his pictures. 

But then, he rocked up to the date half an hour late, without an apology. Worse yet, he didn't look anything like his Tinder photos. 

In fact, he looked old enough to be her uncle. 

Still, she has to admit that, while her date sucks, the food is tasty. Plus, the waiter is also pretty cute. 

Besides, when that same waiter offers her a hand in serving some revenge to her catfishing date, Annabelle just can't say no. 

Does this charming waiter spell trouble? Possibly. 

But, surely, once revenge is served cold, there is always room for dessert, hey?

Our Secret To Keep. by ELShorthouse
31 parts Ongoing Mature
A delayed flight. A stranger at a hotel bar. A one night stand. Stranded in New York for an extra night than planned due to a delayed flight, I needed to find a way to keep myself occupied, and I soon found that something. It was easy enough when the handsome stranger introduced himself to me as Kade. It has been a while since I have had a hot one-night stand, and he reminds me how fun it can be. There are no questions, expectations or reasons to see one another again. What I don't expect is our night together to come around and bite me in the ass. When I arrive at a family dinner with my parents and two older sisters to celebrate my return home to Scotland, he is sitting right there with them. Not only is he my father's new business partner, but he is my sister's blind date set up by my parents. We pretend to be strangers because things would become complicated if we didn't. No one ever needs to know about what happened between us. My dad would freak out if he found out about us because he is overly protective of me as the youngest, and with the age gap between Kade and me, my father wouldn't approve. My relationship with my older sister is already strained; I don't need to make things worse between us. Even though he doesn't seem interested in her and he tries his best to show that it could still make all hell break lose. My sister hates losing. She always gets what she wants. I should stay away from him, but it is easier said than done with the tension and chemistry between us, and we struggle to fight against it. No matter what happens, it needs to be our secret to keep.
Recipe for Love by SmlAlwaysOriginal

Book 2 of the Chimera Trilogy He wasn't really looking for it but when love shows up he has to decide whether he'll accept it or not. New connections, old ties, and surprising revelations are ingredients for lasting love or for instructions to a charred heart. Ecerpt: Mike was tall like Alex, slim like him, had the same blue eyes and black hair. I could only conclude that my brain was looking elsewhere for an Alex substitute. That was not flattering to myself or fair to him. It was easier I guess to pick a fight then actually let myself like him. His eyes flipped to mine again. That eyebrow went up and he smirked. Now he was laughing at me. I straightened and turned to lean against the pole with my back to him. Maybe it was time to find a nice girl to date. The trouble was I hadn't been interested in anyone enough to want to go on a date, and I wasn't the kind to do one night stands. My eyes flipped to Alex. He was smiling and laughing at something Tyler was saying. I was happy for him but if I really let it be felt, I was jealous, a little that Tyler got him and I didn't, but I think it was more that they were together and happy and I had no one. I'd finally hit that age I wanted family and children. "Here." A plate appeared in front of me. I looked around and saw Mike holding it out. "What's this?" "That's commonly known as food. You eat it. I've noticed you favor the mushroom soup, stuffing with gravy and corn on the cob. Here you go." I took the plate. Why on earth had he not only noticed what I ate but brought me a plate of it.
Can I date you? by choc0_0mallows

"Can I date you?" His brows were very expressive and now the light of his green eyes shone when I showed a difficult expression; it was after all reflected in his eyes. "No" His body that was crouched to level against my small frame stood up; he was massively intimidating yet he always reminds me of the goofy joker we have in the back of our high school class. "It's fine, I'll ask you again" "Give up, I don't want to fall in love with a player like you, no offense" I bit my lower lip in contemplation, I didn't hate him nor dislike him. In particular, we get along well to the point that it still surprises me today. But I just don't want to get hurt. I can already see it in the future and I know I'm too negative but I just don't want to risk my heart for something I knew won't go well. 'But what if it did?' My heart whispered but I buried it down, not wanting to fall into my truest desire and his green playful eyes. "None taken" He gave me that familiar smirk of his which left me somewhat annoyed and when I was about to turn back, I stop in my tracks when I heard his words. "You know I'll always ask you for a date because I like you right? This is not a joke or a bet. I genuinely like you so if you finally have the decision to agree on a date with me then I'll show you that what you fear is not gonna happen" With that, I glared at him and rushed out of the door with my face flushed and my lips were spread widely a silly smile. *** This is a work of fiction, a story that I made in a whim when I was washing dishes and yes, I wanted the cliche womanizing male lead and awkward female lead so strap your belts for a story that will deviate from what you think the story is!

I decided to explore a little and found a room that had a beautiful black bed. It was very masculine, but the smell gave me butterflies. I approached the curtains on the large and long windows and gently touched them. "May I help you?" a tall figure asked with his hands In his pockets. I quickly turned around and was shocked at the sight I was seeing. It was the man with beautiful brown eyes. "No, I'm sorry, I just liked the way your room looked," I told him with a slight smile. ₊˚ʚ ᗢ₊˚✧ ゚.

It Began In Italy | ✔️

35 parts Complete Mature

One last trip with her family before she goes to University. Her intentions for this trip were to spend every minute making memories and savouring the last moments she'd get with her family before she moved away. She did this, just not with who she had planned. In the Italian sun it's easy to make rash decisions and to have a lapse in judgement. Especially when a man, you've only just met, comes into play. When he's showing you the island and teaching you Italian, how can you not fall madly in love? With three weeks to spend, will she let herself fall head over heels for a guy she will most likely never see again, or will she stick with her former plan and come to her senses?
