Love at first sight

Noah had never believed in love at first sight. It always seemed like something out of books-something romanticized to the point of impossibility. But then again, he also never expected that his most defining moment would come in the quiet aisles of a library on a sleepy Tuesday afternoon, surrounded by dust and dog-eared pages.
At that time, love wasn't on his radar. He was buried in thesis deadlines, family expectations, and the numb routine of adulthood quietly creeping in. He had a rhythm. Predictable, peaceful...lonely.
That was before Julian.

"The Sky We Once Dreamed"
Noah dreamed of touching the skies - not knowing he'd lose the one person who taught him how to reach them. He was the quiet boy no one noticed, with eyes full of dreams and pockets full of nothing. She was the girl who had everything - beauty, fame, and a heart too fragile to be seen. Their story began with a school project, and ended with a goodbye that tore the world apart. Years later, fate brings them back - two hearts scarred by time, two souls pretending they've forgotten. But love has a strange way of finding its way home. Until tragedy strikes... and Noah wakes up - in the same classroom, on the same first day, with Sarah's laughter echoing beside him. Was it all just a dream? Or did love bend time itself to give them one more chance? Because sometimes, the universe breaks your heart - just to teach you how to love with everything that's left of it.
Above Water ✔️
Thomas needed a vacation, but that didn't mean he wanted one. His best friend convinced him to come down to his family's beach house for the summer to unwind, to relax for once.

Thomas intended to mope around for the three months, drink away his problems, and maybe get a tan in the process. However, his plans were thwarted when an unwanted houseguest from his past arrived the day after his getting there, leaving a bitter tang on the entire "vacation." Not to mention, Thomas was forced to share what he thought was his room with his best friend's wife's ridiculously handsome brother, Dallas. Thomas was on the cusp of drowning in the first week. Relaxation wasn't even on the agenda. He just had to try to keep his head above water.Complete

*I do not own any rights to the photo used as my cover* *** #2 in TeenRomance (2026) #4 in Gayness (26) #9 in Teenager (2026) #11 in Coming out the closet (2021) I started this story in 2021... Everything is cringy and bad about this story, but I decided to complete this book since I got a lot of comments disappointed it was never finished. Eric didn't choose or really want to be gay, it just kind of happen- something that just happened, he can't even remember how he found out he was gay all he knew was that he was, And it wasn't like there's nothing wrong with that. Eric wasn't homophobic, he didn't feel disgusted in himself but rather disappointed. Everyone put pressure on him to be this perfect person, whether it being grades or sports or family- everything would be ruin if he came out. That's why he hadn't told anyone in the last couple years, not because he's scared- pft, Eric Goodmen scared? Star football player? Could have all the women by just a click of a button if wasn't for being in love with the same gender- scared? He was just a little 'inconvenienced'. One party changed everything though- to many drinks and making out with the wrong gender to send his fake perfect life crashing down when discovering out the first person he came out to, kissed, and had sex with was Callum Micheals. Mr pretty boy. Like life flashing before his eyes- Eric questioned whether Callum remembered or not? *** The smell of a nose itching fabric softer, too expensive for his parents to buy and the feel of warm feather pillows is what Eric woke up to. His body was somewhat tired, and sweaty but besides that, he felt good- he even let out a morning moan sitting up with his arms to look around, he was at Jackson's. A light ache from his hangover rang through his head reminding him that he drank a lot last night seconds later, he opened his mouth to hiss or groan in pain, but the groan that brought silence to the room wasn't his- it was, "Callum?!" Eric whisper shouted.Complete

She learned to live with the silence he left behind. He learned to live with the regret of leaving her. Now, fate has thrown Mason and Ella together again- in the most unexpected place, on the most ordinary day. But nothing about seeing each other feels ordinary. It feels like the past rushing back.

Sometimes, it waits.
Delicate Disaster
They started as classmates, then friends, then something that didn't quite fit any word. The problem? Neither of them were ready to call it love. They never meant to fall for each other. It just happened quietly, in glances that lingered too long and silences that said too much. What started as teasing and shared notes turned into something heavier, something neither of them dared to name. Elena swears she's fine keeping it undefined, even when her heart stumbles every time his eyes find hers. And Noah he hides behind jokes, behind that easy confidence, pretending he doesn't care when he clearly does. It's the kind of almost love that burns slow, the kind that ruins you softly. Between laughter and denial, comfort and confusion, they walk the line between friendship and something more, too scared to cross it, too scared to let go. __ Friends to something less than lovers, more than bestfriends.
One Way Ticket | a love story
The boy who's always had his nose in the book, from science to fantasy. Frequent visits to the British library occured once he started working on a new story to publish in the school newspapers and later turn into a book. He was seeking inspiration for the whole semester now and now has a little time to finish the book. Usually, his day would consist of waking up, having breakfast, going to the library and his college classes, running errands, having lunch, relaxing or working out, having a bath then going straight to bed with a hundred thoughts trapped in his head. That would be a usual day. Today, the weather was quite gloomy and the forecaster predicted rain. But today wasn't going to be as ordinary for Noah as every other day, because he might have found the source of his inspiration for the book. ---- Story status: CompletedComplete
