She finally knew what she wanted-after he stopped waiting.

Blair is confident, smart, and a little chaotic in the best way. She's fearless in life-except when it comes to love. That's where doubt creeps in.

Hayes was her best friend. The one who stayed. The one who loved her quietly-through lingering touches, stolen glances, and unspoken words.

But Blair never saw it. Not until he finally confessed.

And by the time she realized she felt it too, he was already walking away.

Now, they're older, circling each other again, still caught in the same dance of almost.
Will they finally get it right-or lose each other all over again?

A slow-burn, second-chance romance about missed moments, unspoken love, and the question we all ask: what if?All Rights Reserved

Nasaza by Awayaesthetic

"I will never stop searching for you, my dearest nemesis. I will find you. And when I do, I will break you, and leave you shattered beyond recognition. You will always be mine to decode, and I'll cherish every moment of it." Aadesh Malhotra craves secrets. Craves the unknown. Craves the truth. That's how it always has been. And he hates her, yet he finds himself drawn to her like a moth to a flame. He fears her, yet he is fascinated by her. Her antics leave him confused and perplexed, yet he cannot ignore her. Why does she do the things she does? And why does he feel so drawn to her yet terrified by her at the same time? Surely, no sane person can be so...insane? Who is she? ꒷꒦︶꒦꒷✧꒷꒦︶꒦꒷ She had to be the fire and the fuel to the flames, the master and the weapon, and the game herself. It was her world, and he was just the new kid who entered it. She hated him with a passion, but she also couldn't resist him. He was smart, cunning and a force to be reckoned with. And he didn't know that. Unaware of his chaos and his potential. "But I do think your neck would be even prettier coated in red."

And Vivaan, who never let people in, started letting her closer. Their conversations grew longer, their silences more comfortable, and before he knew it, she wasn't just another classmate-she was someone he didn't want to lose. Feelings change, perspectives shift, and suddenly, the girl who once fell alone isn't the only one falling anymore. Now, Vivaan has a choice to make-stay in his carefully built world or risk everything for the one person who makes it feel less lonely.

She loved him for as long as she could remember. He was her childhood best friend-her first and only love. But to him, she was just a friend. Nothing more. Years passed, and still, her feelings stayed the same... even when he didn't feel the same way. It was a one-sided love she never gave up on. Through high school, through college, she kept hoping. Wishing. Waiting. Until after graduation... something changed. But sometimes, love comes too late. And some stories don't get the happy ending they deserve. "Maybe someday... he would love her too. But maybe someday... is not today."

Facade Of Perfectionism by Shrya1712

'Love is like a child, That longs for everything it can come by' -William Shakespeare _______________________________________________________ Maya Matthews is the description of perfection, or as she has been addressed. She excels in every field she steps her foot into, be it from her perfect grades to being the best daughter a parent could ask for, you name it. Her tenderness is what attracts every guy's attention. She seems to have everything she could ask for. What could possibly be wrong with her near to perfect life? Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth. Maya has her demons that she desperately attempts to hide from the world that not a single soul knows about. Shawn Daniels is the perfect storm and the missing puzzle in Maya's life. He is the polar opposite of Maya. Smart, confident, and witty. He's often misunderstood for a bad boy, who has quite a handful of girls swooning over him. He's a carefree soul. He is the yin to her yang. What happens when they cross paths and Shawn unleashes Maya's dark secrets? Will he succeed in his mission to pull Maya out of her past, and show what life has to offer? But life is certainly not a bed of roses and nothing comes as easy. _______________________________________________________ They say love can overcome anything. You never exactly know when it will strike and turn your life upside down. Love will make you doubt every single thing that you believe in yet you will find yourself drowning in it slowly, very slowly but deeply. _______________________________________________________ All rights reserved © 2020-Shrya1712
