Hazy (wlw)
"What if Oliver's not your type either?" Emma Sinclair is trying to keep everything where it belongs. Oliver on one side. Violet on the other. Everything steady. Predictable. Safe. She thought she could hold it together. She was wrong. Something shifts-quiet at first, then all at once. And suddenly, what she's supposed to want doesn't feel right anymore... and what does feels like something she can't explain, can't control-and definitely can't let anyone see. Especially not Violet. Because some lines aren't meant to be crossed. And once they are, there's no going back. TW: strong language, abusive parents, depressionComplete
After All This Time 😐
🕯️ After All This Time They were always in the same room. Same friends. Same birthdays. Same chaos. But never the same page.

Told in late-night glances, unsent texts, quiet heartbreaks and loud silences, this is a story about timing, tension, and love that almost didn't happen. But after all this time... what if almost was just the beginning? ✨ A sapphic slow-burn from the world of When You Looked at Me, If I Look Back Now, and Swipe Left for Feelings. 💬 Featuring emotionally unavailable lawyers, actresses in denial, and one unforgettable trip...Complete
When No One's Watching
He draws constellations on his sneakers and disappears in a crowd like he was never there. The other lights up every room he walks into-too loud, too much, and somehow still lonely. One hides behind silence. The other behind a smile. And when their worlds finally collide, it's not fireworks- It's quiet. Slow. A little bit painful. At a school where people only see what they want to, one boy is being hurt in the moments no one's around. And the only one who sees it? Pretends not to-until he can't anymore. A slow-burn love story about unspoken things, hallway bruises, unshared lunches, and the terrifying softness of being seen. Disclaimer: This story is a work of fiction, inspired in part by real-life observations-moments, people, and dynamics that lingered in memory. While the characters and events are mostly fictional, some emotional experiences were drawn from things I've seen or felt in passing. If any part of the story seems to be similar to another it is unintentional. I also don't own any of the art that you might see all credits go to original owners but if you'd like to use any of the characters please ask first.Complete

As Mira's condition worsens and Kai's grief deepens, they cling to starlit secrets, shared music, and the fragile beauty of a connection they never saw coming. Some love stories are built on forever. Theirs begins in borrowed time.Complete
Little Light (GxG)
In a world that moves too fast, she's learning to breathe slowly. To feel again. To let someone touch the parts of her she thought were long gone. There are no crowns here. No thrones. Just the quiet war of learning how to be held without flinching. She doesn't beg for safety. She creates it in silence. And when she kneels, it's not for weakness- it's because she trusts. But trust has a pulse. And it just might be hers. A story of shadows softened by light, of control given, not taken. Of healing whispered through touch, and love written in silence. This isn't where the pain begins. It's where it learns to rest. ⚠️ WARNING ⚠️ : EMOTIONAL INTIMACY SUBSPACE SLOW-BURN HEALING TRIGGERING THEMES (VULNERABILITY, TRUST, PAST TRAUMA) 🔴 Tops: 🔴 1.
