A story of love that bloomed, broke, and left her to rebuild from the pieces.

They met by chance.
Fell hard.
Built dreams between kisses and promises.
And then-
the slow unraveling.

This is the story of a girl who loved deeply and lost quietly. Of betrayal whispered through late-night silences and heartbreak that didn't end with goodbye. It's about watching him become someone else's, while she was still holding onto the version of him he used to be.

But it's also about becoming.

Told in six parts-Before Us, Becoming Us, The Distance, The Ending, After Us, and Becoming Me Again-this is her journey from first glance to final goodbye, and the love she found on the other side of letting go.All Rights Reserved

THE GIRL NEXT TO AN IDOL by romanceink_

She ran away from home to escape her pain. He was a famous idol hiding from the chaos of fame. Their first meeting? A disaster. Second meeting? An argument. Third meeting? Maybe destiny. Somewhere between their late-night talks and stolen glances, they fell in love - quietly, deeply, and dangerously. When the world found out, the hate came crashing in. His fans called her names. The media called her a mistake. He was ready to leave everything behind for her, but she couldn't let him destroy his dreams because of her love. So she disappeared - leaving only a memory behind. Years later, at a crowded concert, his song stopped midway when he saw her face in the audience. And in that moment, he knew - he'd found the missing piece of his heart again. A story about love that survives distance, fame, and time - because some hearts always find their way back.

OBSESSION. too personal by _Jane_D_O_E

This could have been a gentle story for quiet autumn evenings. But it shattered against Morphine - a chapter that will not let you stay indifferent. And now, you'll understand why. This is not a story about perfect love. It's about healing through pain, about love that blooms after trauma, and about the fragile line between salvation and obsession. She is a woman rebuilding herself from the ashes. Not strong - simply real. A mother. A fighter. A writer whose words cut deeper than truth itself. She doesn't want to be someone's muse - she only wants to be understood. He is the man the world worships... and fears. A legend. A symbol of an era. But behind the fame, there's a man haunted by his own darkness. Together, they are fire and gasoline - two broken souls learning how to love without losing themselves. Their story isn't a fairytale. It's an age-gap dark romance about redemption, grief, and the courage to love again. With touch. With words. With silence between the lines.

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.

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.

THE FEAR OF MOVING by JOEZYJOEL

✨ "Sometimes the hardest journey isn't leaving - it's learning to move on." What happens when love feels like home, but fear whispers that it won't last? Alex never believed in forever. To him, moving forward meant leaving behind pieces of himself he wasn't ready to lose. Then he met Lila - the girl who painted light into his shadows, the one who made every silence feel like music. But love has a way of testing hearts. Promises are broken. Dreams collide with reality. And sometimes, even the strongest love can shatter. This is not just a love story. It's a story of holding on when everything falls apart, of heartbreak that refuses to let go, and of healing - the kind that takes time, scars, and faith. The Fear of Moving will take you through the fragile beauty of first love, the ache of goodbye, and the quiet strength it takes to begin again. If you've ever loved, lost, and found yourself again in the ruins - this story is for you. 💔✨

Even If It Wasn't Love by lyradanes

Sometimes love isn't what it seems - it's pain, confusion, hope, and everything in between. Caught between the memories of what once was and the fear of what could be.

Still wants him. If you've ever been lost in the middle of love and doubt, this story is for you. Even If It Wasn't Love is a story about holding on to the very thing that's tearing you apart - and wondering if maybe, just maybe... it was love all along.

Their First, And Last by storiesby_tanu27

They say everyone finds love at least once. But what if... she never did? She didn't stop believing in it- she just never got it. Not the kind you read about. Not the kind that stays. She loved deeply, silently, and selflessly... but life never loved her back the same way. And he-he wasn't searching for anyone. He didn't even know what love looked like until he looked at her. And suddenly, he just knew. This isn't a story of second chances. There was never a first. This is the beginning they never expected- when two lonely hearts crash softly, and build a kind of love that feels like home for the very first time. It's not her last... It's her first, too. And maybe... finally... her always.
