My Brother's Arch-Enemy (Completed) by TheGirlWithDreams21

I have lived with that silence for as long as I can remember - and I know it won't leave me until my very last breath.

Josh Parker was the all American boy who all the girls wanted, including Katie. As Katie and Josh's friendship blossomed she quickly formed a crush on Josh, but as the years progressed, her crush turned into love. Five years after leaving Miami brokenhearted after finding out about Josh's engagement to his childhood sweetheart. Katie unexpectedly reunites with her former best friend, and Josh quickly realizes that his feelings for her are not just platonic anymore. * As I'm walking out of work I get a call from my brother to pick my niece up from school. For the past 4 years that little girl has had me wrapped around her finger and I wouldn't have it any other way. Unfortunately I got stuck in traffic on the way over so I'm late for pick up. Once I get to Melanie's classroom I fill out the sign out sheet that's on the wall and make my way into the classroom. I faintly hear Melanie laughing so I know she's not upset from me being late. "Hey I'm so sorry. I got stuck in traff..." I said stopping mid sentence, stunned at the woman in front of me. Standing in front of me is someone I considered one of the most important people to me back in highschool. As soon as I looked into those Caribbean blue that I used to know so well, I knew it was her. It takes her a few seconds to realize who I am. She stands there stunned. We continue to stare at each other until she breaks the silence. "Josh?" She asks not believing it's actually me. "Hey Katie girl."

The One I Belong To......A Tale of Love, Family, and Destiny. by JOONGDUNKDS

Love isn't always simple. Sometimes, it arrives when you least expect it-hidden beneath friendship, tangled in laughter, and disguised as rivalry. And sometimes... love crashes into your life with a dhol, a wedding invitation, and way too many nosy relatives. This is the story of **Joong** and **Dunk**-two souls who never planned to fall in love. When Joong's older brother, **Pond**, is set to marry **Phuwin**, the entire family gathers for the wedding of the year. The house is filled with music, mischief, and endless teasing as traditions unfold. And in the middle of all this chaos, Joong finds himself drawn-**annoyingly, irresistibly, and completely unwillingly**-toward Dunk, Phuwin's younger brother. At first, it's **harmless banter.** Then it's **accidental touches.** Then it's **longing glances across the dance floor.** And before either of them can stop it... it's something more. But love isn't always easy-especially when family duty, sacrifice, and heartbreak stand in the way. When tragedy strikes,Dunk is asked to step into Phuwin's place, giving up his love for the sake of his nephew. And Joong? He is left with a choice-**let go, or fight for the love he never thought he'd find.** What follows is a rollercoaster of emotions, weddings, misunderstandings, dramatic love confessions, and a romance that will make you laugh, cry, and believe in fate. Because some love stories aren't just written in the stars- They are **written in tradition, in family, and in the moments we never see coming.** 💖 **Get ready for a grand, emotional, and laugh-out-loud journey of love, family, and second chances.** 💖
