Caroline's family runs deep in science and education. She has no time for dating anymore. Her boyfriends have been disappointments. Biology comes first, then relationships. Her parents met when they were in college. She's not interested in soulmates right now.
The last thing Cameron wants is to be like his dad. It's what he heard his entire life: you are just like your dad in every way. The only good thing about his father is his looks and brains. His father has arranged and organized his entire life from birth, relationships, and school.
Anytime Cameron and Caroline interact, there is a combustible conversation. A rivalry that has spanned since middle school. Like Murphy's law: anything that can happen will happen. They don't agree on anything. It's better when they are not around each other. The universe has other ways to continue bringing them together. She's bossy, he's arrogant. The last time they worked together, it involved the power shower. Being partners for a semester project, which counts for 50% of their grade, Caroline and Cameron will make it possible even if it means another chemical burn.

Zero Point One ||Omegaverse||
Ciro and Kenan have hated each other since childhood-a petty rivalry that's followed them into university. With one year left before graduation, Ciro is determined to become valedictorian. But his plans take a sharp turn when he's suddenly paired with Kenan for a project that's worth 50% of his grade. What he thought would be an easy course now seems impossible. The tension between them is palpable, their personalities clashing, but the stakes are higher than ever. As they're forced to work together, Ciro realizes that this rivalry might be harder to overcome than he ever imagined... and the zero point one compatibility between them could become more than just a number. The machine whirred softly. The room went quiet. Then- BEEP. A red light. Professor Daniel frowned at the screen, looking almost... confused. "Well," he said, double-checking, "your compatibility is 0.1%." A few people chuckled under their breath. "As expected," someone whispered. The professor exhaled. "That's the lowest I've ever recorded." I blinked. 0.1%? Now, forced to spend more time together than ever just to pass, Ciro and Kenan find themselves toeing a fine line between loathing and something far more complicated. Every clash ignites sparks neither of them knows how to extinguish and raising that score might mean confronting feelings they've spent years burying. (Updates 3 times per week )

the moon will always be better than the sun
enemies. "Did I not warn you about staying away from me today?" he says as he looks at my eyes. Deeply. My brain stops for a second. His hand is closed around my neck, his face is dangerously close to mine. And I'm breathing heavily. He sees whatever's wrong with me, and stays still for a second, a small smirk forming in his lips. Then, his eyes find my lips. What the hell is happening? My heartbeat fastens as I hold my breath. And his eyes find mine, again. He slowly leans in. His mouth traces my jawline and face. It doesn't touch me, but he's too close I feel his breath. I don't even realize that his hand has released my throat, and I could freely go if I wanted to. But I'm feeling way too many things at the same time. Why aren't you running, Jess? I then feel his lips on my jawline for a second; and I find my hands tugging into his hair, as I breathe a bit too heavily. He then lifts up his face, lips next to my ear. "So. Fucking. Easy." he mutters. © All the characters and the story is owned by me! Thank you.Complete

Will it pull them apart? Or will it make way for something more?
