>I am trying to make it a more fledged out story instead of immediately jumping into romance
But trust me there will be. As of now I will have to think the plot over.
>this is my first romance story it will be slowburn
>it will involve a love triangle in later chapters. I'm still quite new to this 👀
>I might also add descriptions in the beginning of how the characters might look like soon too but I won't be writing much bc of school babes

❝𝘾𝙧𝙖𝙨𝙝 𝙄𝙣𝙩𝙤 𝙈𝙚❞ ★ 𝙋. 𝙎𝙪𝙣𝙜𝙝𝙤𝙤𝙣
Genre: Romance | Mystery | Slow Burn | Urban Slice of Life Description: You live a quiet, ordinary life-working shifts at a cozy pastry and drinks café, exchanging texts with your overprotective brother Jake, and returning to the silence of your small apartment at night. Everything is safe. Predictable. Yours. But lately, something has shifted. He's always there. On the corner. Across the street. Sometimes on his bike, helmet resting on his knee. Sometimes at a table with nothing but black coffee. He doesn't speak much. He watches. At first, you brush it off. Coincidence. But days pass. Then weeks. You begin to feel his eyes before you even see him. He doesn't flirt. He doesn't approach. But he stays. Drawn by a presence you can't explain, you start to wonder: Who is he? And why does it feel like he's been waiting for you to notice? In a city of noise and people who pass like shadows, his silence crashes into you louder than anything else. And soon, you'll have to decide whether to shut the door-or let the stranger on the bike in. --- I do not own these characters besides the female lead, this does not apply to their actual lives and is made purely for fun.

Back To You
Madison thought she had closed the door on Tayler forever. Two years ago, she walked away, leaving behind the only boy who ever truly knew her-the one who made her feel safe, seen... and ultimately, shattered. She swore she'd never look back. But now, fate has other plans. Thrown back into each other's lives, Madison tells herself she's over him. That what they had is nothing more than a distant memory. But Tayler? He makes forgetting impossible. He's still the same cocky, flirtatious guy who knows exactly how to push her buttons-and pull her back in. Every lingering glance, every teasing remark feels like a dangerous game, and she's not sure she knows the rules anymore. But between them stands more than just unfinished business. New love, tangled emotions, and the unshakable weight of what once was. Madison knows she should keep her distance, but when it comes to Tayler, that's always been easier said than done. "You still look at me the same way," she muttered, hating the way her voice wavered. Tayler smirked, stepping closer, his voice low and daring. "And you still get flustered when I do." She should leave. She should mean it this time. But what if their story was never meant to end-just to begin again?Complete
