Valeen Rae Enriquez, a dedicated AB Journalism student at the University of Santo Tomas, navigates the bustling streets of Manila with quiet determination. Her life is a delicate balance of academic pursuits, late-night study sessions, and fleeting moments of hope that her dreams of becoming a respected journalist will someday come true. Yet beneath her composed exterior, her mind is a storm of chaos-haunted by memories of her past friendship with Cassie Carballo, once her closest confidante. Four years ago, their bond shattered, and Valeen has since gone to great lengths to avoid crossing paths with Cassie, fearing the flood of unresolved feelings and regrets that might resurface.
Cassandra Rae Carballo, now a celebrated UAAP superstar, stands at the pinnacle of her athletic career, her name echoing in the halls of sports arenas and news headlines. Unaware of Valeen's silent struggles, Cassie embodies success and confidence, yet beneath her triumphant exterior lies a lingering shadow of the past. Their worlds seem destined to collide repeatedly, despite Valeen's desperate attempts to stay hidden from her former friend.
In the midst of the city's noise, two lives-one seeking truth, the other chasing victory-stand on the precipice of an inevitable collision, each unaware of how deeply their lives are destined to entwine once again.

April It's hard enough being the most sought after girl in Los Santos. Now, the tempting red head has to run a squad, get her gorl a spot in the gang and prove herself...to herself in said gang all while the biggest championship looms in the background. And of course it can get much worse when she has to navigate unexpected feelings from the sudden appearance of a tsundere threatening everything she's worked so hard on. Gawd, it's so hard being her. Sigh. Ray For as long as Ray can remember all she's wanted was to escape the chilly grasp of limbo. She's let her brother control her life for far too long. It's time she puts her best foot forward with co leading this squad and fighting to claim a spot in the hearts of a gang that sounds like everything she's ever wanted to be apart of. Of course, it's not going to be easy but maybe a certain white haired Brit could maybe... not? Fuck. (or, April and Ray are cheerleaders in Uni navigating through gang life, love, home and family.) It's a co-opt story.Complete

𝗠𝗲𝗲𝘁 𝗠𝗲 𝗔𝘁 𝗠𝗶𝗱𝗻𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁・❥・Maddy Perez & Nate Jacobs, Euphoria
"𝑆𝑜𝑚𝑒 𝑔𝑖𝑟𝑙𝑠 𝑎𝑟𝑒 𝑡𝑎𝑢𝑔ℎ𝑡 𝑙𝑜𝑣𝑒 𝑖𝑠 𝑝𝑎𝑖𝑛. 𝑆ℎ𝑒 ℎ𝑎𝑠 𝑡𝑜 𝑙𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑛 𝑖𝑡 𝑖𝑠𝑛'𝑡." Iris has always known how to survive. At eighteen, she's everything East Highland thinks she is-reckless, untouchable, the girl with a reputation she doesn't bother correcting. She laughs louder, bites back harder, and never lets anyone get close enough to see what's underneath. By day, she's just another senior counting down the days until graduation. By night, she becomes someone else entirely-someone who dances for money, not attention. Someone who does whatever it takes to keep a roof over her head and her little sister safe. No one knows the truth. Except Maddie. Maddie Perez has always been there-closer than anyone, closer than Iris ever lets herself think about. Their friendship has never had boundaries. It's messy, magnetic, and blurs lines Iris refuses to define. Because defining it would mean risking it. And then there's Nate Jacobs-the one habit Iris never managed to break. Toxic, consuming, and impossible to ignore, he knows exactly how to pull her back in. With him, it's chaos. It's fire. It's everything she's learned to mistake for love. Caught between something real and something familiar, Iris is forced to confront the one thing she's spent years avoiding: Maybe love isn't supposed to hurt. Maybe the hardest thing she'll ever have to do... is choose something soft.
