Thaleia Reed
Age: 18
Background: A Bachelor of Medical Technology graduate who just passed her board exams-but feels strangely detached from the achievement.
After passing her board exams, Thaleia Reed transfers to a small-town called Larkpine. Nestled in the hills-where the streets are narrow, the rain never stops, and everyone seems to already belong somewhere. She chose Medical Technology because it made sense-stable, noble, expected-but deep down, she knows her heart is tethered to something else. Something she can't name yet.
Life in this town is painfully slow. Cafés close early. People remember what you wore yesterday. Everyone sits with the same people at lunch. Thaleia walks the halls like a shadow-quiet, observant, almost untouchable. She's not trying to fit in, not yet. She's trying to feel anything.
Each day, she stares out of fogged-up windows, sketching strangers in the margins of her notebooks, chasing the edge of some unspoken longing. What is it she really wants? Why does everything feel like a life meant for someone else?

"Kiss me," She says, a tan hand snaking around my waist. Tiny bolts of electricity run through my stomach as she pulls me towards her. Her words reverberate through my head, but I can't seem to grasp the meaning. She holds my gaze for just a little too long before I instinctively grab the back of her head and pull her face close, her silky smooth hair all but falling between my fingers. Holy shit. - Shelby is your above-average mean girl. Razor-sharp wit, annoyingly perfect blonde hair, and a nasty attitude. Oh, and she's fucked every guy in school. That's a personality trait, right? But what happens when Bethany kisses Shelby? It changes everything. And you know what? Change is fucking scary. Especially when that change makes your cold heart skip an extra beat. - This is an LGBT+ story. All my love stories are wlw-centric. I am a queer author, and that's what I LOVE to write.

Because of you
She was a girl who never knew love-never truly felt happiness. Then came the sunshine, warm and radiant, and for the first time, her world began to bloom. But one mistake... and everything changed. The girl who never dared to dream began to daydream. She started hoping. Expecting. Believing. But what if those dreams were illusions? What if the very thing that brought her joy ends up being the reason she breaks? Will she ever find real happiness? Will she ever learn to love herself, without needing someone else to show her how? The sunshine lit up her life-but in its fading, it left a shadow. A stain on her heart. All because of her.Complete![All yours [WLW story]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/33093587-256-k44572.jpg)
All yours [WLW story]
After months of an unhappy on-off relationship, Lynn finally decides to break it up for good with her boyfriend. To start anew she decides to move out of town and gets a job at a music store to pay for her rent. When she meets a wonderful girl from town she realizes things about herself that she never considered possible. One of them being that she's hella gay. Author's note: This story at its conception was mostly a project for myself to see if I could write something and get feedback and since i was heavily into PVRIS at the time I wrote it as Lynn Gunn fanficion. I finished writing this story years ago and since then I've not felt exactly comfortable with writing fanfiction about real people because of my own reasons. I pondered on deleting it, but I grew too fond of the response this story got, despite not liking it myself, so I decided on keeping it, just tweaking it a bit so the main character is not a fictionalized version of Lynn Gunn, just with her as a face claim. Sorry if this dissapoints anyone, but nothing can stop you from still imagining this story as fanfiction. Thank you for everything, ana xx.

professor x student | wlw | age gap Claire Thorne is a driven fifth-semester psychology student at Harvard University, one of the world's most prestigious institutions. Everything in her life is perfectly on track-until she fails her preliminary exams under the strict supervision of Professor Ms. Paulson. This unexpected setback throws Claire's world into disarray. To make up for her failures, she must attend a special seminar, but the enigmatic professor has a way of keeping Claire's focus far from the textbooks... Is there something more brewing between professor and student than what the rules allow? As Claire becomes entangled in jealousy, passion, and emotional turmoil, the exam that once dominated her thoughts begins to fade into the background. She has no idea how much her decisions will impact her future. In the shadowy corners of the university, a forbidden love affair takes root-one that will push Claire into a far more intense and life-altering test than any exam. ~We parted simultaneously, as if we wanted to preserve the specialness of this moment, as if we were afraid of wasting something that was already immeasurably and boundlessly ours. I looked into Sarah's eyes, those dark, unfathomable eyes where I got lost and yet found a support that was firmer than anything else in this world. A smile rested on her lips, and while our bodies warmed each other, while the city lights broke on the surface of the Hudson and the melody of the sleepless metropolis accompanied the rhythm of our hearts, I knew that I felt for this woman more than I could ever express in words.~Complete

But fate had other plans in the form of Essen, the notorious campus bully who seemed to have made it her life's mission to ruin Zee's peace.

A Silent Love 💕 ♾️
The girl, a year her junior, moved with a quiet grace, a subtle melody in the bustling hallways. Her laughter, when it rippled out, felt like sunlight breaking through clouds, and the way her brow furrowed in concentration during lectures held an unexpected allure. For her, it was an instant, undeniable pull - a gravitational force she hadn't known existed.😳😳 Every shared glance, every accidental brush in the corridor, sent a jolt of electricity through her. She found herself noticing the smallest details This wasn't a boisterous, declared affection. It was a quiet, internal blossoming, a secret garden she tended in the hidden corners of her heart ❤️❤️ . But the reality of their different years, the unacknowledged distance, hung heavy in the air. Was this a cruel game, a simple act of youthful teasing?🤔🤔 Or was there a flicker of something else beneath the surface, a playful acknowledgment that hinted at a deeper awareness? Her one-sided love had gained an unexpected participant, one who held the power to both exhilarate and torment her with a single glance, a carefully chosen word.😘🥰 The silent symphony in her heart now had an echoing counterpoint, a teasing melody that kept her perpetually off-balance,🙈🙈 forever wondering about the true intentions behind that knowing, captivating smile.😳😳
