"Quit staring at me, Johnson," I say, not breaking eye contact.
"Quit being so beautiful, Stevens," he says, his eyes beaming at me.

Adalia Stevens and Malik Johnson. Best friends since childhood. Strangers since teenagers. Soul mates from the beginning. 

Adalia is given a chance at freedom away from her destructive "parents" but it means leaving everything and everyone she knows behind. Particularly, her best friend, Malik. A person she never thought she would have to learn to live without. 

What happens when she continues having run ins with members from a past she tries everything to keep hidden? And what happens when Malik wants an explanation as to why she left. Even though he has his own past ghosts that he would like to stay 6 ft. under. Literally.

Adalia + Malik = Good or bad mix...?

When You Loved Me by justarii_
7 parts Ongoing
Adolescence is a complicated part of anyone's life. Juggling high school, social life, and complex emotions can be exhausting-but the most taxing part of it all is the discovery of one's identity. Amity is still trying to figure out who she is and things only become more difficult after she meets Callie. With the start of their friendship, a whole new side of Amity begins to unravel in the most painfully beautiful way. Their friendship quickly evolves into a legendary and whirlwind romance that teaches Amity the strength and passion of love. Fears of being discovered by homophobic friends and family test the strength of their relationship. But teenagers are naive and, like Amity's mental health, they fall apart, turning a passionate love into a burning heartache. As she navigates the pain, Amity must learn to cope with her internal struggles and face the parts of herself that have been hidden away for so long. When You Loved Me follows the challenging adventures of adolescence, the passion of one's first true love, the devastation of one's first heartbreak, and all the pressure that comes from societal and religious expectations. Yet, despite all the pain, it also explores how to heal. **PLEASE READ** This story will eventually contain the following trigger warnings: prescription drugs/abuse of, depression, anxiety, mental illness, religious themes, religious trauma, internalized/external homophobia, curse words, mentions of suicide, suicide attempts, hospital setting TWs will also be at the beginning of relevant chapters.

He said clearly enjoying my anger and I wanted nothing but smack his head right at the moment. "I'm not jealous. And get the hell away from me" I replied sternly. He moved towards me and caging me in his arms not giving me a moment to move back. "Last time I checked you're my wife and also a doctor that make you my personal doctor.
