"It's been years since Hannah last spoke to the person with whom she had formed a strong friendship before entering college. She can't help but wonder about him - what he's doing and how life would have turned out if they were still close. A smile creeps up as she reminisces about their memories together.

Hannah feels a subtle yet gnawing sense of emptiness, as if something is Amiss.She had been thinking about him and how her flaws, unguided insecurities, fear of attachment and her unyielding attitude towards conflicts had created a lack of emotional intimacy. Her struggle with communication had led to misunderstandings, ultimately pushing him away.

She tries to brush it off as mere nostalgia, but the feeling persists, a constant reminder that something is amiss. Should she reach out? *Her stubborn personality abruptly interrupts her thoughts and take over."I don't miss or care about him," she says, trying to sound convincing despite her inner turmoil.

In frustration, she screams into her pillow, "I have more pressing tribulations in my life right now than this!"

✗ "I'm sorry," I choked, the tears spilling down my cheeks. He shook his head and pulled me closer again. "Don't be sorry, just work on getting better," He said, rubbing calming circles on my back while I cried into his chest. His arms tightened around me and he pressed his lips against the top of my head, making me cry even harder. "I had never meant to hurt anyone. I just wanted to be good enough," I whispered. The guilt weighing heavy on my shoulders. "Briar," He said quietly, "You're so much more than good enough." ✗ Meet Briar Martin. She's popular, rich, smart and pretty, add a perfect boyfriend to that list and her life couldn't be much better, right? Wrong. Briar's life is spiralling out of control, and it feels like no one can see her struggle. No one can help her. At least, that's what she thinks before Tyler Grey walks into her life, turning everything on it's head. Tyler is mysterious, charming, and drop dead gorgeous, but does he have what it takes to save Briar from her downward spiral? And what happens when he's the one who needs saving? Can these two broken people fix each other, and find peace with themselves? Or are some things broken beyond repair?

An internal voice whispered, "Call him." But I chose not to. I dismissed it once more, saying, "He never liked me anyway." Yet the dilemma lingered. "But maybe he does. The way he looks at you... it's different." Out of nowhere, he glanced my way. My heartbeat quickened, sending shivers down my spine. I averted my gaze, pretending to look around. "Has he noticed me? No, wait-oh my god." --- After switching high schools, Nina discovered a new way of life. She fell in love, made wonderful friends, and everything seemed perfect. But Ethan-a popular boy who never focused on anyone but her-was the object of her hatred. He was always there, always keeping her safe. He used to annoy her endlessly. She hated him deeply. Until she didn't. For a while, she was content with her high school experience. That is, until something mysterious turned her world upside down. Forced to move to a new city, Nina had to cut ties with everyone she once knew. Eight years later, fate brings her face-to-face with him again. "Ethan..." He's the key to everything-the truths she never knew. When she was lost in the dark, he always held the light. But now, things are different. She despises him. He's colder than ever. Or perhaps she fears him. Fears that he'll leave her again. Will their lives ever return to normal after everything they've endured? "Maybe?" "Maybe yes. Maybe no?" --- Started: 8 November 2021 Ended: 19 December 2022 Rewritten: December 2024 --- ### Rankings Goals So Far: #1 Adolescente #1 given up #1 blinddates #1 pretend #10 twistedromance #50 high school romance --- ### Notice: This is my first published story, and it contains numerous grammatical errors and bad editing.

Yes, five years. I held on to a love that was never mine, and I guess, will never be. For five years, I have waited for him to love me. I kept my patience - hoping and waiting. Ben: What I regret the most was not being able to tell her my real feelings. For five years, I did nothing but think that I'd tell her one day how much I love her. And before I realized it, the days turned to months, and it was five years already. For five years, I held on to my love for her. I kept it a secret, made sure that she won't notice it, and just be a big brother to her. Five years. Has it really been that long? Can I go back to the first time I met her?

"What else do you want me to say, Mia?" "Did you mean it?" There is a pause and I just-I feel exhausted, the kind that 12 hours of sleep hasn't been able to fix. "Hannah said I don't deserve to be loved, is that how you feel too?" She might not have said it in as many words but that's exactly what she meant. He takes my hand in his and kisses it. "Between the both of us-it's I who doesn't deserve to be loved." "Too bad you already are." "Please stop saying it!" he may not have screamed the words at me but he might as well have. "You think I am lying?" He holds my face with both his hands and looks deep in my eyes. "Mia, I will say this for the last time. I don't do love. I don't want to be loved by anyone and I will never fall in love with anyone ever. If you love me, keep that love to yourself. Please." "Why?" "This is the deal, Mia. Take it or leave it. I will give you my loyalty and my time but I will not have you telling me you love me ever again. I don't believe in love and I can't give you love. Can you live with that?" "What if I can't?"
MY HIDDEN THERAPY by Quillweaver05
21 parts Ongoing
Hey everyone! I'm excited to share that I'm working on a love story. Writing has always been a passion of mine, and this story allows me to create a world born from my imagination. The characters are entirely fictional: while I've envisioned the male lead distinctly, the female lead shares some similarities with me. This story revolves around a sweet high school romance between two top students. The male lead is an egoistic character who unexpectedly falls for a girl who often battles self-doubt and has a quick temper. I'm eager to explore how these two meet and develop a beautiful relationship filled with love and friendship, ultimately becoming each other's unrecognized source of support. I hope to bring my imagination to life through this narrative and that you will enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy writing it!

His Heart, Mine by venuserve

She swears she hates him. He's convinced he hates her more. But when secrets, lies, and late-night whispers begin to blur the line between enemies and something they wouldn't even consider, neither of them is ready for what's coming. *** Aliana is loud, impulsive, and dangerously unpredictable. She lies when she's scared, smiles when she's breaking, and keeps everyone away with her endless sarcasm and sharp tongue. She doesn't need anyone. Especially not him. Ali is silent storms and cold stares. The boy with the bad reputation, a past no one talks about, and a temper that makes people flinch. He wants nothing to do with drama, especially when it wears red lipstick and calls him names. They can't stand each other. So why do they keep ending up alone in the same room? Why does every fight feel like foreplay? And why does hating him hurt more than it should? ~~~~~~ He kisses me, again and again, raw and consuming, and then pulls away; I can feel his green eyes piercing my soul. "What you told me last time, say it again," he whimpers breathlessly. "What?" I manage to ask, confused, and reel him in again for another kiss. He pulls back again, his breath hot against my skin. "That you hate me, tell me that you hate me." "I hate you," I tell him almost instantly, the lie burning on my tongue. He kisses me harder and more hungrily, and the words slip out again from my tongue: "I hate you. I hate you. I hate you." His murmurs deepen into groans, and at this exact moment, I ask myself how I'm still standing, still breathing, still present. ~~~~~~

She said looking at me hatred in her eyes. "I don't have to try to make him love me. He already does with all his heart." With a smile on my face I look at my phone which pinged with a notification. "I don't have time to waste with you, my husband is waiting for me." She laughed out loud making me look at her in confusion, is she loosing her senses or what? She looked at me with pity. "I feel sorry for you that you believe he loves you. If he loves you as you say why was he at my place every night for the past three days." To say i was shocked would be an understatement.

What happens when two souls are arranged together one who doesn't believe in love or so he thought and the other who always wanted a fairly tale like story. Will they be able to come together and find love in each other or would they break by the circumstances surrounding them. Join Kartavya Raichand and Anika Raichand in their journey.
