Alex and Matthew met on an online dating app, both seeking casual connections but agreeing from the start that they only wanted to be friends. Their bond quickly grew, built on easy conversations, shared hobbies, and a natural chemistry that felt effortless. They spent weekends together-watching their favorite movies, going out to the bar, and laughing over foods. It was the perfect friendship, or so Alex tried to convince herself.
But somewhere along the way, Alex began to feel more. Her heart, which had promised not to fall, betrayed her. She found herself waiting for his texts, longing for his smile, and catching herself lost in thoughts of a future with him. Every moment spent with Matthew was both a gift and a reminder that the line between friendship and something more was becoming impossible to ignore.
As time went on, Alex struggled to hold her feelings at bay. The more she tried to suppress them, the stronger they became, until one day, she realized she had crossed a line she couldn't erase. But Matthew? He had made it clear from the beginning: he just wanted to be friends.
Faced with the painful truth that her feelings were one-sided, Alex made a desperate decision: she wanted to delete the part of her heart where she had fallen for him. She wanted to undo the love she couldn't control and desperately wished she could forget. But the harder she tried, the deeper she fell.
Will Alex learn to accept her feelings and find peace, or will she forever be haunted by the love she couldn't undo?

I was said to be
𝐭𝐨𝐨 𝐝𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐝,
𝐭𝐨𝐨 𝐢𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞...
𝐭𝐨𝐨 𝐮𝐧𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞.
I had heard it so much in my life that it had manifested into a truth that remained rock solid in my brain. It consumed every surface of my body and mind like a deadly cancer
It had become a promise to myself. A reminder. A standard.
It was a rule applied to every person in my life, except him...
He was the same as I was; no matter how different our outside identities were. We were cut from the same cloth on the inside. There was no denying that he and I were both broken souls left in a broken world.
Both craving an eternal slumber before we met, but his darkness played so well with mine that suddenly it began feeling more like light, warmth, goodness... a happy ending.

Partying.
That was the one thing Chandler did best, and everyone in town knew that. But when one of her parties get out of hand and the cops are called, she's in for a rude awakening as she comes face to face with the new guy in town: Officer Herrera.
He's wasn't like the usual officers she dealt with, and she finds that out quite quickly as she gets dragged away to jail for the night.
They both wish to never see each other again, but there was something stronger than their dislike for each other keeping them together.
The stronger their dislike grows, the more attached they become, until the lines become so blurred that they can't tell the difference between hatred and love anymore.
They could say they hated each other, but if anything, a small part of them knew it would turn into love.
If that love would last once everything was revealed... It was only a matter of time before they found out.
