The Boy with Bad Habits by blackcatbri

I began writing this at 15 and finished it at 17. It is my first novel, give me grace for that. [Warning: this book contains explicit content, crude language, drug use & abusive scenarios.] He tried everything, everything, everything to forget her. No matter how hard he fought, the memories wouldn't fade. She wasn't some dream girl, she was the dreamy one who taunted him. A blonde viper that shattered every part of him. But picking up the pieces? That's the part he never thought he'd get around to. Ace Valentino doesn't do what people expect-he's the guy who walks on the wild side just because he wants to. A brooding young man with a dark side fueled by brokenness, addiction, and bad decisions. His heart is still held hostage by his stoic, adrenaline-obsessed ex. How could he move on with that? It isn't plausible. So, he drowns the pain with alcohol and anything that numbs him. But Ace has secrets, ones he vowed to bury forever. Then, his new neighbor moves in and suddenly, something inside him stirs-something he's not ready for, and everything he's terrified of. Willow Andrews, sweet yet scarred, knows nothing but loneliness. Her guardian's abuse has built walls around her big heart. Love is a stranger to her, and she's afraid of what she doesn't understand. But something about Ace, the tortured soul next door, draws her in-despite the fear. In a world where love is something they can't quite reach, Ace and Willow collide. What could possibly come of this? Can they save each other, or will their pasts break them before they have a chance? The line between magic and misery is thinner than they think-and the change they both desperately need might just be the thing that destroys them, or... sets them free.

Unordered Love જ⁀➴ ✉︎ by veronicascroquetpuck

Some things you can't plan. Some people you can't forget. Sienna, with book-occupied hands and earphones always in, has never left Ashford Hollow - and doesn't plan to. She lives where she most wants to, journaling all her thoughts in shitty notebooks and serving espresso shots at the Hallow Café. Soft eyes, quiet soul, music in her bloodstream. She's not looking for love. Or drama. Or anything, really. Then Mateo walks in - A Spanish student with shy curls, geeky glasses, and bad playlists. He orders an oat milk latte and asks her for songs that feel like ache. She gives him Phoebe Bridgers. Mitski. A dog-eared copy of The Bell Jar. He keeps coming back - 7 a.m, every morning. Just to see her. It all happened so fast. A double date she didn't want. A surprise she definitely didn't expect. A letter in her mailbox. And everything spirals sweetly from there. Kisses in parking lots, shared headphones, stolen hours. But when she asks him what they are, he says nothing. He just smiles awkwardly. In that moment, something in her stomach cracks. Because Mateo's hiding something. She just doesn't know what. Love letters don't fix everything, but maybe they're a start.
