Imperfectly Mine
"Love isn't about fixing each other's flaws-it's about finding the beauty in the imperfections and choosing them anyway." In a bustling city filled with noise and distractions, Hael never expected his life to shift when he saw Emily for the first time-buried behind a precarious pile of books. What began as a series of chance encounters blossoms into a story of shared silences, creative collaboration, and unexpected vulnerability. As Hael struggles to reignite his passion for writing, Emily, a freelance editor with a complicated past, finds herself drawn to his unassuming charm and sincerity. Together, they navigate the messy landscapes of self-doubt, heartbreak, and the fear of being seen for who they truly are. Through stolen moments in cafés, late-night walks, and the writing of a short story that becomes a mirror of their own lives, Hael and Emily find more than inspiration-they find each other. But their connection is far from perfect, complicated by lingering fears and misunderstandings. A story of quiet courage, tender imperfections, and the unexpected beauty of love, "Imperfectly Mine" reminds us that the best stories are often the ones we write together.Complete

Ugh, Not You || Tsukishima Kei x OC Haikyuu Fanfiction || Enemies to Lovers
"They say love is a battlefield. For Sakuragi Nao, it started with a glare across the classroom and ends with a green hoodie she never meant to return." Sakuragi Nao is many things--a photography nerd, a tap dancer, a stubborn overthinker, and unfortunately, someone who's been paired with the most aggravating boy in her class for a group project. Tsukishima Kei is tall, blunt, and insufferably smug. She's convinced he was sent by the universe to test her patience. He thinks she's loud, nosy, and too dramatic for her own good. What starts as awkward, tension-filled group meetings quickly unravels into stolen glances, lots of (friendly) teasing, and something dangerously close to flirting. Neither of them want to admit what's really going on-not when their arguments are easier than honesty, and teasing feels safer than sincerity. But feelings don't stay buried forever. And by the time they realize it, they're already in too deep. [Book cover credits to: annetphotoshoplove (on Pinterest)]Complete
