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?

Space Between Our Silences
Zee just wanted to survive high school quietly - no drama, no attention. 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. What everyone didn't know was that Essen's teasing wasn't fueled by hate, but by something she couldn't admit - not even to herself. Between playful jabs, stolen glances, and a growing ache she couldn't shake off, Essen starts realizing that maybe she isn't trying to break Zee... maybe she's already falling for her. Meanwhile, Zee battles the confusion of hating the one person her heart seems to soften for. A story of chaos, affection, and everything that blurs the line between love and hate - "Essen & Zee" proves that sometimes, the loudest kind of love starts with a shove. ⸻ 📓 Author's Note (2025): Hey there! 💌 Thank you for checking out Space Between Our Silences.

I'm just the one typing it all down and shaping it into words, but the heart of this story? It's hers. My Aji💫 Stay tuned, stay thrilled. 🌙✨

Failing the exam - Sarah Paulson
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
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.

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.😳😳![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. Warning: contains mature language, sexual content, drug use and whatnot.Complete
Where the Storm Found Us ( Daniela Avanzini x FemReader)
The story opens with the storm. Daniela is trapped in it, soaked, trembling, and lost in panic. Her fear of rain isn't just about the car crash, though. There's another hidden truth tied to that night: someone was there when it happened. Someone she never forgot. You. Back then, you were just a kid too, standing by helplessly as the accident unfolded. You saw the wreck, saw the flashes of ambulance lights, saw Daniela being pulled away screaming for her parents. You never knew her name, but that memory has stayed buried in you for years, etched into the sound of rain. Unlike her, you grew to love it, because it made you feel close to that memory, close to the girl who survived. Now, years later, in the middle of a storm, you stumble upon her again without realizing it at first. The curly-haired girl curled into herself, shaking in the downpour, it's her. The very same girl from that night. When you approach, she doesn't recognize you. To her, you're just a stranger. But something about her face, her eyes, snaps you back to that rainy night long ago. The plot unfolds with this haunting question: what if the person you were destined to meet was someone whose pain you had already witnessed, without either of you knowing fate would pull you together again? As the story moves forward, you're torn between telling her the truth, that you were there the night her life shattered, or keeping it hidden so she doesn't see you as part of the trauma. The rain then becomes more than fear or comfort, it's the thread that's always tied you both together. ❗❗PAUSED❗❗
