Chasing Autumn by imjustagirl_xoxo

Asher grits his teeth, clearly getting cornered. "Autumn, you're making a scene over nothing. Just stop this already!" "Nothing. Nothing." She echoes, laughing bitterly. "You call cheating nothing." "I'm not cheating!" he pushes Autumn away, not roughly, but enough for her to react. She looks at him with hurt, anger, pain, and everything combined. She instantly sides next to me, her fists clenched at her sides and eyes watering. My heart pounds in my chest as I stand next to her protectively. I will do anything for her, even if it means leaving this place to drop her off right now. She looks away, tears threatening to fall. "We're over, Asher. Don't come back crying." --------------------------------------------------- Autumn Meyers has never aspired to love. Growing up, she's only ever known one boy - her best friend, Milo. The boy next door and her loyal supporter. She's never taken an interest in him, or, frankly, anyone. But that all changes when she meets the new boy. He is everything she isn't - hot, charming, and most of all, flirty. Soon, she falls for both boys who like her, leaving her questioning where her loyalties lie. She has to choose eventually. It has to be soon. To satisfy one heart means to break another. Who will she choose? And, most importantly... who will she break? -------- Started July 31st, 2025 Ended December 21st, 2025 #37 in bestfriendstolovers- December 17, 2025

GREY by AriesBlackWolf

I was frozen to my spot, watching his slightly darkened eyes roam my body and I couldn't help the embarrassment that suddenly coursed through me. Heat rushed up to my face as I timidly moved my eyes away from his intense gaze, crossing my bare legs over one another as I bit my lip. I felt completely vulnerable. The silence was soon thankfully broken when he cleared his throat, bringing my eyes back up to find him turn around to shut the bedroom door. ----------------------------------------------------------- Constantly having to move from town to town due to her father's condition was never easy for Aria Clark. Her father meant everything to her and although it's hard for her as a young teenager to start fresh every time she learns to get comfortable, she vows to do anything to be by her father's side. With no expectations she once again enters a new town, planning to get through the school years until she is told to move again. But what if Harlow is not like the other towns she had moved to in the past? What if the town and the people in it completely change her life and bring about an experience she may have never imagined? What if she was able to make friends who would stand by her for lifetime, delivering her new hopes for the future? What if they entirely change her perspective on how she sees the world and herself? And what happens when she meets Grayson Stone?

As the stakes get higher, they're forced to question whether they can keep their lives intact or if their connection will destroy everything they've fought for. "Some things are worth risking everything for," he murmurs. But will she take the leap into his dark world?

A gripping story of trust, love, and the dangerous secrets that threaten to unravel everything. April thought her life was held together by invisible threads-trust, love, and loyalty woven into the fabric of her world.

But when her father dies, those threads begin to fray. Dylan is slipping further into darkness, Lucas has returned with motives April can't quite read, and Camille Harrington-a woman shrouded in mystery-looms over them all, pulling Dylan into her dangerous orbit. Caught in a web of secrets and fractured loyalties, April struggles to untangle the ties that bind her to the people she loves. Enter William-a stranger with quiet resolve and unexpected warmth-steps into her life just as the storm begins to close in. Torn between Lucas' protective instincts, Dylan's unraveling, and William's quiet strength, April must navigate the fragile lines between trust and deception, love and betrayal, survival and truth.

Eros ✔ by faeriez

Autumn Lake thought she could have anything she wanted. Despite her father's wealth, there were three things she could never get with money; love, freedom, and friendship. She had never experienced such things. She had always wondered how they felt, for she never felt loved by anyone; not even her own father. She had no one to socialize with other than her maids and her father's coworkers and prestigious clients, because of her father's imprisonment. The only things that she usually did in her spare time were reading novels and countless encyclopedias, which left her to wonder how good and generous the world was. That was until she went to college. Everything she imagined how the world outside would be went topsy-turvy. CREDITS: Cover by: Andini Oktarani
