And Still, I loved you. by ruins_and_roses

They were never supposed to meet again, but fate had other plans. They were never strangers. They just became people who knew everything about each other, Except how to fix what they broke. She loved him like it was the only thing keeping her from falling apart. He left like he couldn't feel it. Years passed. Cities changed. Names got softer on unfamiliar lips. But silence never erased the way they ended. And when fate threw them back into the same room, One bleeding, Other one breaking, The past didn't knock. It kicked the door down. This is not a story of falling in love. It's what happens after.

Soft Silence by authorem_

"𝐼𝑛 𝑎 𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑙𝑑 𝑓𝑢𝑙𝑙 𝑜𝑓 𝑚𝑜𝑜𝑛𝑠, 𝑠ℎ𝑒'𝑠 𝑚𝑦 𝑠𝑢𝑛." 𝘿𝙞𝙮𝙖 𝙎𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙢𝙖 is kind, too kind and strong in the way that makes people forget she bleeds too. Love was never expected, only endurance. So when her father asked her to marry she nodded... not out of hope, but habit. 𝙑𝙚𝙙𝙖𝙣𝙩 𝙈𝙖𝙡𝙝𝙤𝙩𝙧𝙖, grew up in a home that taught him how to build empires but never taught him how to ask for a hug. Marriage was never part of the plan until a hospital room, a fading pulse, and the one man he could never disappoint whispered a final wish. Neither expected warmth. Neither expected understanding. And they definitely didn't expect comfort in each's other's silence. A tale of quiet yearning- an arranged marriage where silence becomes a language and love sneaks in when no one's looking. - M 💌

Her Confession by Exquisitely_Asian

They never got the chance to confess in high school, stayed strangers in college, and met again when they're starting to build their careers. Years later, fate brings them together once more-will this be their final chance to turn their unspoken love into forever? Will he now listen to Her Confession?

Glimpse of Us by Noir2026

"I've carried her in my thoughts for months, haunted by every touch, every laugh, every moment we weren't supposed to share. She's my best friend. She's my addiction. And she's slowly slipping away. Between stolen glances, late-night confessions, and the ghosts of what could have been, I'm learning one thing: some love doesn't wait for the right time - it waits in the spaces between us, impossible to ignore, impossible to let go."

Maybe Someday [ON-GOING] by glaiza0525

She loved him for as long as she could remember. He was her childhood best friend-her first and only love. But to him, she was just a friend. Nothing more. Years passed, and still, her feelings stayed the same... even when he didn't feel the same way. It was a one-sided love she never gave up on. Through high school, through college, she kept hoping. Wishing. Waiting. Until after graduation... something changed. But sometimes, love comes too late. And some stories don't get the happy ending they deserve. "Maybe someday... he would love her too. But maybe someday... is not today."

To the Boy Who Made Me Feel Everything by Softlywritten25

Some stories begin with a kiss. Ours began with a handshake and silence. He wasn't supposed to mean anything-just a classmate, a stranger, a passing name. But somehow, he became the boy who made me feel everything. The one I texted when I didn't know what to say. The one I looked for in crowded rooms without meaning to. The one who sat beside me once on a bus...and never really left. This isn't a perfect love story. There were no grand gestures, no dramatic declarations, and no promises. Just two people, slowly breaking and becoming, in a world that never stopped moving. He wasn't mine. But he felt like home.

Almost Us by SilverySplendid

This is my first novel. A story born from countless imagined scenarios-those "what if" moments in the head that never happened but feel so real. It's about friendship, laughter, jealousy, and the feelings we keep hidden. It's about the times we're too quiet, the words left unsaid, and the moments that could have changed everything... if only. What if we were more than friends? What if I said what I felt? What if things turned out differently? This is not the story of "us." This is the story of what we almost were.
