The boy with the stormy eyes

Some absences take up more space than any presence ever could.

Selena never really forgot him.
Rowen - the boy who drifted in and out of her life like a flicker of light, always close enough to feel, but never close enough to hold.

They cross paths, avoid each other, get pulled back again.
What binds them has no name, only the kind of intensity that lingers. He protects her. Hurts her. Stays just long enough to leave a trace, and disappears before she can understand why.

Between held-back glances, unspoken truths, and emotions too heavy to name, their story unfolds out of sync - delicate, unresolved, unforgettable.

This is the most beautiful story you've never been told.
Raw. Real. Heart-wrenching.
Like the kind of love we carry in silence, long after it's gone.
