Under Her Sky
She always thought she was straight-and she definitely thought she hated her. They clashed on everything: debates, competitions, even who got the last word. But somewhere between the arguments and the tension, she realized the fire wasn't just anger. It was attraction. And the one person she swore she couldn't stand became the only one she couldn't stop thinking about.
Like Bees to Honey | gxg
When a laid back and rudely gorgeous city girl comes for her farmer's market crown, Sabina's dream of joining the family honey business is threatened - and her heart may just get stung too. *** Now that she's graduated high school, Sabina is ready to join her family's honey business, but her parents are convinced that there's no future for her in her small town. They're set on sending her to university, which she knows will be less fun than getting swarmed by angry bees. To prove that her place is on the honey farm, Sabina plans to impress her parents by winning the Best Vendor prize at the summer farmer's market. Her quest for the sweet prize gets sticky when a pretty city girl steals her table at the market and doesn't even feel bad about it. Mel's family has been the enemy of Sabina's for generations, and now this otherwise easygoing girl seems determined to continue the feud by beating Sabina to the Best Vendor prize. The competition would be no problem for Sabina... if Mel wasn't also gorgeous and maybe even a little funny. Sabina didn't plan for feelings, and if she gives in to the temptation she may lose her honey farm dreams. But Mel's love might be the one thing sweeter than honey, if she can avoid the sting. *** Complete at 82k words. *featured on Wattpad's Cottagecore Cute and A Latte Love reading lists*Complete

Fall's 3 Fires
We started with a spark, then a bonfire, and then a wildfire. As in, she burned my house down and walked away laughing. The flames rise higher and higher, like hands reaching out to a savior. Smoke hides the stars, fills my lungs, and sinks into my clothes. I don't know if I'm crying or if the heat is just becoming overwhelming. "WOOO!~ Ain't it pretty, Raine?~" she grabs my hands, and drags me along with her as she dances around the crumbling remains of my life as I knew it. Her strawberry blonde hair dances with her, flying like the flames. She keeps eye contact with the embers while I keep my eyes on her. "Yes...beautiful."Complete
The Sparks Between Hate and Love
They were rivals from the very first glance. Every word exchanged between them was sharp enough to cut, every glance a challenge waiting to be won. Everyone knew they hated each other. But what no one knew was the secret. That hate burned into something else when no one was looking. That behind the arguments and sharp stares lived a dangerous, unspoken truth neither of them dared to admit. Enemies. Rivals. Opposites. But sometimes the line between hate and love isn't just thin-it's electric. And one wrong move might set everything on fire.Complete
Raincheck
What happens when the love you thought was pretend turns out to be the most real thing you've ever known? After the sapphic K-drama Friendly Rivalry skyrockets Lee Hyeri and Chung Subin to fame, the two leads become overnight icons-of chemistry, controversy, and everything unsaid. But behind the scenes, their closeness dissolves into silence, leaving fans wondering what really happened when the cameras stopped rolling. A year later, rumors erupt. Dispatch thinks Hyeri's back with her cheating ex. Subin is spotted in Florida with a mysterious companion. A fan-fueled conspiracy brews... and they're both caught in the storm. But when Hyeri makes a desperate call that leads to a drunken reunion, a glittery Orlando chapel, and a very real marriage certificate, the two women are forced to confront what they've been running from: the truth of who they are-and who they are to each other. As public pressure mounts, secrets resurface, and careers hang in the balance, Raincheck follows two women navigating love, identity, and the cost of staying silent in a world that only pretends to be watching fiction. This isn't just a story about falling in love. It's about choosing it-loudly. Messily. Irrevocably. And maybe, just maybe... asking for no more rainchecks. DISCLAIMER: This story is sprinkled with a dash of reality, a whole lot of "what if," and zero claims to actual truth. It's fan fiction, folks, aka imagination in overdrive. Any resemblance to real events or people is purely because our brains can't help but blur the lines sometimes. Read with your heart, not a fact-checker.Complete
The Impossibilities of Us
"What are these feelings you're talking about?!" he questions still yelling. "That I fucking like you, Daniella Jamie Grey!" I yell. "And I fucking like you too, Arabella May Jhonson!" he yells back. And the next thing I know is that we're no longer yelling. I hadn't even noticed that we went closer and closer to each other until I felt his breath on my lips and his nose nuzzling against mine as he bent to my level, his body towering over mine. I pull him to me and smash my lips onto his and it barely took a second for him to respond to it. ~~~~~ Arabella Jhonson and Daniel Grey unite. How they met each other, you may ask? They met each other because Arabella's cousin and Daniel's father are dating. There's definitely a spark when they met and the spark began to grow as they hung out with each other day by day, especially since they'll be living under the same roof for a little more than three weeks. Oh and not to mention that Daniel lives in Australia, away from Arabella, and he's only come to visit. But that's when the impossibilities come in to play. For one, aren't they technically going to be related if her cousin and Daniel's dad get married? And not only for that reason, but many other reasons that will be revealed as the story progresses. This'll be a story about two teens who go through struggles and a romance between them that seems more than likely to be impossible. Not only do other people get in the way of this romance, but their minds as well. Their minds that remind them why they can't work. And their minds that have their own fears. But can their romance find a way through it all? Or will it all just fall apart? Warning: Contains strong languageComplete
