Reuben Williams, a quiet, and emotionally retrained 18-year-old college kid with BPD, who begins therapy with 27-year-old Dr. Ciera Valé, a seasoned, emotionally detached trauma psychologist known for her cool composure and professional rigor.

What begins as a standard therapeutic relationship slowly shifts as deep emotional vulnerability gives way to unexpected intimacy. As Reuben reveals the raw truths of his past, Dr. Ciera Valé finds herself drawn to him; not only as a healer, but as a woman confronting her own buried longings. Their sessions blur the lines between professional care and personal connection, culminating in a sexual relationship that both liberates and destabilizes them.

As the story unfolds, both characters grapple with the consequences of their actions ethically, emotionally, and professionally. Is their connection a manifestation of healing or something more?

What We Make Room For | Regression Story by 94LittleDove94
25 parts Ongoing Mature
What We Make Room For is a quiet, luminous tale about healing, chosen family, and the courage it takes to be known. On a coastal campus where faculty live just steps from their students, Ezra Reyes teaches art with a gentle hand and paint-streaked fingers. His partner, Dr. Liam Reyes, a grounded and steady professor of social work, is a quiet force of calm in a chaotic world. Together, their home is a haven filled with books, warmth, plants, and an unspoken capacity for care. Then there's Cara Rowan. Twenty years old, intelligent, guarded, and unraveling. Studying pre-med and hiding more than just her exhaustion, Cara is barely keeping it together. She's been taking black-market pills to suppress the signs of her true classification as a "little," a label she's terrified to claim but one that explains everything she's spent years trying to erase. The pills help her appear strong. But they also steal her joy, wreck her body, and bury the very parts of her that once made her feel whole. When Ezra finds her sketching behind the art building-anxious, sharp-tongued, and too tired to pretend-he sees something she doesn't. Over time, and with Liam's quiet guidance, the three begin to form an unexpected bond. A slow, tentative trust grows between them, anchored not in obligation but in deep, resonant care. As Cara is drawn into their world of shared breakfasts, long beach walks, and a love that asks for nothing but honesty, she begins to question the life she thought she had to live. But healing isn't easy, and to move forward, she must face the shadows of her past and the truth of who she is. This is a story about soft rebellion. About becoming. About finding home, not just in a place, but in people who stay.

"I didn't want this to burn out too fast. I wanted it to last, slow and steady, a burning ember that glowed for eternity." She's breaking under expectations. He's suffocating under love. Valeriana has spent her whole life performing as the perfect daughter while quietly falling apart under the weight of never being enough. Darius grew up in warmth and freedom, only to find that too much love can also be a cage. At Ceridian University, Valeriana just wants to survive another semester. Darius just wants to do his job and keep his heart out of it. But when their paths cross; the tutor sessions, quiet teasing, dinners, and moments that weren't supposed to matter turns into something neither expected. A bond built on shared exhaustion and unspoken care. They teach each other how to breathe again. How to laugh when the world feels too heavy. How to love without needing to be perfect. But as their connection deepens, so does the fear of losing control, of being too much, of not being enough. Because love, for them, isn't a rescue. It's a slow unravelling. A choice to stay when it would be easier to run. "The Way We Mend" is a tender, slow-burn romance about burnout, healing, and the quiet courage of being seen and loved as you are. {This is an original work written by me.
