Some stories are meant to be written in ink, clear and precise, leaving no room for doubt. Others are meant to be felt, like a lingering warmth in the air after a fire has burned out, like the ghost of a touch that was never given a name. This is one of those stories.  

Grace and Archer were never meant to cross paths, and yet they did. Not in a way that could be neatly defined or placed into a category, but in a way that settled into the fabric of their existence, quiet and inescapable. There were no grand proclamations, no promises sworn under the weight of the stars. Just moments-small, fleeting, weightless to the world yet heavy to them. A presence that remained even in absence, a tether neither of them fully acknowledged, yet neither could sever.  

What do you call a connection that exists in the spaces between words? That lives in unfinished sentences and stolen glances? That neither demands nor fades? Was it love, or something just as powerful, yet far more elusive? Some affections are bold, loud, and insistent. Others are softer, nameless, slipping through the cracks of reality yet never truly disappearing.  

Perhaps this story isn't meant to be understood, only felt. Perhaps its ending doesn't matter, only that it existed at all. This is a story of anonymous affections-the kind that do not beg to be recognized, yet leave their mark all the same. Read it not for answers, but for the echoes of what remains when words are no longer enough.

Me and you till the end by ImaginestoriesT
125 parts Complete Mature
"They hated each other first. Then they learned what real love feels like messy, loud, and impossible to forget." Jacob Reeves and Olivia Wilde were never supposed to work together. He was the quiet, brooding type - the guy who kept his guard up and his feelings buried deeper than anyone could reach. She was all passion and fire, a hopeless romantic who believed that love could fix anything. So when they were forced to team up for a college project about love, it felt like a cruel joke. Their meetings were full of sarcasm, stubborn arguments, and frustrated sighs. He thought she was too idealistic. She thought he didn't have a heart. But late nights have a way of breaking down walls. Between stacks of notes and too many cups of coffee, their conversations began to shift. The project became an excuse to stay longer, to talk about things that had nothing to do with school - dreams, fears, regrets, and everything in between. Somewhere between the bickering and the laughter, Jacob and Olivia fell for each other. Not in a perfect, movie-scene kind of way, but in a real way - messy, unexpected, and impossible to control. But timing has never been kind to them. Life pulled them in different directions - heartbreaks, ambitions, and choices they couldn't undo. Still, what they shared never truly faded. It lingered in every memory, every "what if," every song that reminded them of what once was. Because some love stories don't end - they echo. And theirs? It's the kind you never forget, no matter how far you run.
The Girls with the Flame Tattoos by artsykid04
15 parts Complete Mature
In this society, everyone has a soulmate. And the way to find yours is just look. Along with a soulmate, everyone has a small tattoo on their cheek with a symbol. Some could be a star, a flower, a yinyang, a fish, or even waves. There are so many people that the symbols are almost limitless. The tattoos don't care about gender or number. There could be gay matches, and there could even be polyamorous matches. The tattoos will tingle when you are near to your sm. And they will glow if you have found only one of your sm's if your match was poly. The trick is, you don't get the tattoo until you are 16. And even if you are near your match, as long as one of you are not of age, your tattoo will not tingle. Also, they are normal tattoos (except you don't get it or choose it, it just appears) so you can get rid of it. But if you do, your sm won't die but they will get very sick. The main characters of this story, Violet West (18) and Harper Black (20), both have a flame tattoo on their cheek. They live in the same state but for 4 years Harper paniced because she couldn't find her match. She wasn't sure if it was because her sm wasn't of age yet or if her sm lived far away. For 2 years Violet also paniced but she knew that some people don't find their sm for 5-10 years after they come of age, so she wasn't as scared as Harper. One day though, they feel their tattoos start to tingle. ____________________________________ *Will they be happy with who their soulmate turns out to be? *Will they recognize each other? *Will they be happy? *Will they break apart? -Read to find out. :) ____________________________________ This book is rated mature because there is a lot of talk of depression and self harm.

11 parts Ongoing
They grew up on the same street. Jude was the boy who always carried a camera around his neck, and Jules was the girl who painted everything she couldn't say. Their friendship started with laughter shared snacks after school, afternoons spent chasing sunsets, and long walks home where their shadows always touched before their hands ever did. At sixteen, they both discovered something unspoken. The kind of pull that made ordinary moments feel cinematic the way he'd brush paint off her cheek, or she'd fix his collar before a photograph. Neither of them called it love, but everyone around could feel it humming quietly. Then came the summer that changed everything. Jude's parents moved away suddenly a new job, a new city. They promised to write, to call, to never forget. But time happened numbers changed, addresses got lost, and life moved faster than they could hold on. Years passed. Jules poured herself into her art her canvases became her diary. Jude built a name for himself in travel photography every frame a silent search for something familiar he couldn't name. Neither of them knew that the other still looked for pieces of their old laughter in strangers. Now, ten years later, fate quietly folds the distance between them. Her art exhibition Between Quiet and Gold opens in the city where he now freelances. He doesn't plan to go at first. But one photo he took an old sketch he kept from her pulls him in. And suddenly, there he is, standing in a room filled with her colors, realizing she has been painting him all along.
Trusting Grace by ilovefelix217
21 parts Complete Mature
"I've been burned once, who is to say it will not happen again" I spoke quietly watching her closely. Grace confused me like no other she wormed her way into my heart with her easy-going smiles, kind nature, and gentle heart. Feeling her small hands hold my large ones I glance down into her green eyes "You need to trust that I am not Mia have I not proven to you Cassian, I am here to stay you fit with me" she said in a gentle yet firm tone. The smile she sent me held love, comfort and that was all it took after months of breaking down the walls I decided to take a leap of faith. *********************************************** Cassian Grey had been burned once and that was enough for him after sharing a business deal with his four other brothers they opened up The Grey Gull on the coast of Cornwall, England. A fresh start is what these guys needed and a fresh start is what they will get. Grace Bauer is an art historian with her own little gallery where she brings long-forgotten pieces of beauty back to life. She too had been burned so when she hears of this bar and grill opening up she knows her friends are just dying to try it out. What both of these souls don't realize is that once thrown in each other's paths they soon realize that maybe just maybe they are what the other half needs in one another. It may take a little more convincing on Cassian's part but can he take that leap of faith and trust Grace. All rights are reserved names of places mentioned in this book are all real places however the story line and names of the characters are all from my own ideas.

The Space Between Souls

11 parts Ongoing Mature

In every lifetime, their souls brush against each other like twilight and dawn-always aching for union, forever kept apart. In the quiet spaces between words unspoken and touches that linger a heartbeat too long, two souls uncover the cruelest truth of all: that love doesn't always come when we're free to receive it. Between stolen glances and conversations that dance around confession, between the safety of friendship and the danger of something deeper, lies a love so profound it threatens to undo everything they thought they were. This is a love not measured in years together, but in fleeting moments that burn brighter than forever. What do you do when your soul finds its match in the wrong person at the wrong time? How do you love someone completely while knowing that love may never find the light? How do you say goodbye to someone who feels like home? Some love stories end in wedding bells. Others end in wisdom. This is the story of a love that lived entirely in the space between what was and what could never be- and how sometimes, that space contains the most beautiful tragedy of all.
