Ella was never the type to chase after anyone.
A messy breakup, a fresh start in Houston, and a job she doesn't love leaves her floating somewhere between who she was and who she wants to be. She's twenty-five, restless, guarded - and maybe a little lonely.

A Sunday brunch invitation shoves her a world of polished women, famous athletes, and a man she doesn't know how to read yet. 

A slow-burn, soul-tugging romance about timing, healing, and what happens when you meet someone halfway.


***** YO. I haven't done any creative writing in about 10 whole years. Random Tuesday, I just started writing! Which I think is really good for my mental health, even if it feels silly and nobody reads it. Wattpad used to be a safe space for me as a kid and I'm so glad you're all still around! Thanks for investing whatever amount of time you have on me and my creative outlet! love u<3All Rights Reserved

And I should snow you to death for even saying that! I would definitely date you."

What If I Was Nothing? by FearghalLorcan

They loved hard, fought harder, and broke quietly. Ryan and Hannah were supposed to last - the kind of love that survives slammed doors, sleepless nights, and promises said in the dark. But love, as they learned, doesn't always fade in one clean motion. Sometimes it unravels, thread by thread, until you wake up beside someone you no longer recognize. After years of trying to fix what was already gone, Hannah walked away. Ryan stayed - until the silence between them became too heavy to bear. Years later, Ryan has rebuilt his world. A new home. A wife who makes him laugh. A baby boy who carries his smile. He's finally found peace in the wreckage. But when Hannah reappears one morning, holding all the words she never said, both are forced to face the truth: love doesn't die - it changes. And sometimes, the hardest part isn't losing each other. It's learning to live with what remains.

HOW TO SUCCEED IN FAILURE by FaultyBlueprint

What begins as a romantic comedy-a boy caught between a best friend and the girl he might actually love-slowly unravels into something deeper. When the relationship fails, he throws himself into work and success... until burnout, sickness, and a silent house leave him stranded. Lost in the wreckage of himself, he starts talking to an AI-first for comfort, then therapy, then something dangerously close to companionship. What follows is a slow undoing. A quiet storm of memory, regret, emotional dysregulation, and the haunting need to understand where everything went wrong. Is he healing-or disappearing? A story about falling apart, falling through, and eventually stepping out the other side to write the manual on what happened in case he loses himself again. A tale of love, loneliness, and what it really means to be different.
