"We said goodbye for the sake of growing up. But growing up didn't mean moving on."
At Rosebridge University, Mirabel and Caden meet again-not as lovers, but as best friends carrying unspoken history.
They broke up in high school when Mirabel's grades slipped, and she blamed the distraction of love. Caden let her go, believing they'd find their way back someday. But now that "someday" is here, everything is more complicated than he ever imagined.
She's stronger. He's quieter. And their hearts? Still speaking the language of "what ifs."
But in between stolen glances, late-night talks, and buried memories, their story is far from over. Because sometimes, letting go was never the end. It was just the pause before everything changed.

The Rule We Broke
"Never fall in love with your best friend. A rule built to last, until the moment it shattered." She made one rule to protect her heart: keep the friendship sacred. It was supposed to be her sanctuary, a shield against the kind of heartbreak you can never replace. But rules-no matter how carefully constructed-rarely survive the weight of a lifetime. Back in high school, they were a world of two: late-night calls, shared secrets, and laughter that belonged only to them. They were inseparable until the day he spoke the words that changed everything. In a single heartbeat, silence replaced their history, and the line between "us" and "strangers" was drawn in the sand. Years have passed. They've built different lives and loved different people. but when fate forces them back into the same orbit, the gravity of the past is impossible to ignore. Old feelings resurface alongside guilt, temptation, and the dangerous pull toward a boundary that was never meant to be crossed. Because sometimes, the people we spend a lifetime running from... are the very ones we've been running toward all along. But what happens when the love you finally claim becomes the very thing that divides you forever?
Back To You
Madison thought she had closed the door on Tayler forever. Two years ago, she walked away, leaving behind the only boy who ever truly knew her-the one who made her feel safe, seen... and ultimately, shattered. She swore she'd never look back. But now, fate has other plans. Thrown back into each other's lives, Madison tells herself she's over him. That what they had is nothing more than a distant memory. But Tayler? He makes forgetting impossible. He's still the same cocky, flirtatious guy who knows exactly how to push her buttons-and pull her back in. Every lingering glance, every teasing remark feels like a dangerous game, and she's not sure she knows the rules anymore. But between them stands more than just unfinished business. New love, tangled emotions, and the unshakable weight of what once was. Madison knows she should keep her distance, but when it comes to Tayler, that's always been easier said than done. "You still look at me the same way," she muttered, hating the way her voice wavered. Tayler smirked, stepping closer, his voice low and daring. "And you still get flustered when I do." She should leave. She should mean it this time. But what if their story was never meant to end-just to begin again?Complete

Your Cheating Heart

"I tried you know, it's been eleven fucking months we're dating and I still can't expct anything from you to pleasure me." Is this what our relationship was all about? I thought to myself.
