15 parts Ongoing We were never supposed to fall in love.
He was loud, arrogant, and loved getting on my nerves and I swore I'd never like someone like him.
But life in school has a funny way of changing everything you thought you knew. What started with teasing, arguments, and late-night group projects turned into stolen glances, unspoken feelings, and the kind of connection that scared me more than anything else. I tried to hate him. I tried to ignore the way my heart raced whenever he smiled. I tried to stop falling but somehow, I fell anyway. "I Tried" is a story about two hearts that clashed before they connected, about growing up, letting go of pride, and realizing that sometimes the person you thought you hated... might just be the one you were meant to love.
