I met her in August.
She was just a name in the group chat at first - some girl who cracked dumb jokes about iced coffee and horoscopes.
I didn't laugh. Not out loud, anyway. But I smiled.
She made things feel lighter, like the air after a thunderstorm. I kept my replies dry, short. Cool.
I didn't know then that she'd become my favorite part of the summer.
And I definitely didn't expect to fall in love with her - one message, one sunset, one laugh at a time.
But maybe that's how it always starts.
Quiet.

Crimson Devotion
WLW DARK SPICY ROMANCE I should've ignored her the moment our eyes met. Instead, I let her pull me in - all soft smiles hiding sharp teeth. She knows things about me no one should know. She calls it love. I call it haunting. Everywhere I go, she's already been. Every choice I make, she's already planned. And when I try to leave, she only laughs and asks why I'd ever want a world without her in it. She's not ruining my life. She's replacing it - piece by piece, heartbeat by heartbeat. She says she kills for a reason - that every drop of blood is a prayer for the forgotten. I should be terrified of her. I am terrified of her. But when she looks at me like I'm the only soft thing left in a world full of monsters-like she sees a masterpiece instead of exhaustion-I forget to breathe. I forget to run. Her love is not gentle. It's sharp and suffocating, stitched together with unspoken scars she'd never outrun. And now it's wrapping itself around my bones, whispering that I'm the reason she's still alive - and the reason she'll never stop. They say obsession destroys. But she's not trying to ruin me. She's trying to remake me. And the worst part? Somewhere deep inside, I think I want her to.
The Truth in Goodbye
"I love you" she mumbled as she buried her face in my chest. My heart sank into my stomach. Love?! This was the first time we were meeting! I was hoping it was just the alcohol talking, but what if it wasn't? I'd always avoided this with the many girls I had been with before, left before they could even think about saying the L word. I wouldn't let her change me.Complete
Be My Girlfriend
"I need you to stop bullying Reese." Oh, so it was because of her friend. "I-I will do anything, just make it stop." Her eyes softened along with her features.

I felt the need of reaching out to her, to comfort her and tell her that everything is gonna be okay, but again, I had to stop myself. What is happening to me? I was not like this. "So, you will do anything?" I asked her and it made her look at me. "Yes!" "Hmmmm..." I hummed while I circled around her, I know she was feeling nervous, and thinking that I made her feel that, I silently smiled in victory. "Just... Just tell me what you want!" "Feeling impatient are we?" I mocked her, I saw her clench her fist but I chose to ignore it. I stopped in front of her and stared at her intently before I spoke.

The Girl with no Emotions (GirlxGirl)
I was only 7 when I met her, but we had an instant connection. We were inseperable. She was always happy and joyful around me, but me on the other hand, I was a completely different story. I suffered a disorder that caused me to have no emotions. I told her my condition and she understood, but one day she dissapeared, I didn't feel sad, worried or angry like I should have. I just continued my day like any other day, but by myself. I continued to have no friends as I got older and talked to no one, but it didn't bother me. I soon became the "weirdo" as most people would say. I became known as the girl with no emotions.Complete
Midnight Rewinds
I never believed in perfect starts. I wasn't the guy who lit up a room or made girls turn their heads. But then she walked in-first day of senior year-and everything changed. Her name was Lena. Beautiful, sharp, untouchable. The kind of girl you admire from a distance and never think will notice you. And for a while, she didn't. But then something shifted. I asked for her Instagram. I started texting her. Late-night chats turned into inside jokes, nervous flirting, and long walks under empty skies. Slowly, she let me in. Slowly, I fell-harder than I ever thought possible. She started to love me too... or so I thought. But love is never a straight line. Not when her past is made of broken promises and bruised trust. Not when she starts pulling away just as I'm holding on tighter. I loved her harder the more she faded-and then, one day, she was gone. No explanations. No warning. Just silence. A year passed. Then, one night-midnight phone call, trembling voice, the same girl who broke me once asking if I still remember how it felt to love her. This is the story of how we began. Of how we ended. Of how sometimes, the people who break you are the only ones who know how to put you back together. And maybe-just maybe-some love stories aren't about forever. They're about surviving the parts that almost destroy you.Complete!["My Little Monster~"|| Selever X Reader [DISCONTINUED]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/268673945-256-k202187.jpg)

Her Smile, My Secret
Introduction Some stories are loud - full of declarations shouted across crowded rooms, kisses stolen under stadium lights, fireworks exploding in the night sky. This isn't one of those stories. This is a story made of half-smiles and almosts. Of words that stayed trapped behind teeth. Of secrets folded carefully between the pages of notebooks. This is the story of how I loved my best friend. Quietly. Desperately. Endlessly. It's a story about the things I couldn't say - and what happened when the things I hid finally found their way into the light. Because sometimes the biggest feelings don't need fireworks. Sometimes they only need a smile - and the courage to finally say what's been burning inside you all along.Complete
