"Some people teach you how to speak again. Others make you wish you'd stayed silent."
_____
Almond
A quiet love. A buried past. A story that will leave you aching.
She doesn't talk much-not about the things that matter.
Not about the names she still can't say aloud.
Not about the night that changed everything.
She just wants to breathe without breaking.
To disappear into the background and not be noticed.
But He notices her.
Gentle where others push, patient where others pry-he doesn't ask her to open up.
He just stays.
And sometimes, that's louder than words.
But love is never simple.
And even the softest hearts have storms waiting inside them.
"A soft love story wrapped in ache, healing, and unspoken words. Walk with me through the quiet chaos of two broken hearts trying to find their way. You won't regret it."

A Lifetime and a Little More 🦋💕
"Some love stories aren't about forever... but about everything in between." {Idol × Mananger} Two boys. A wild-hearted dreamer and a quiet storm. Falling in love when the world told them not to. Holding on when everything tried to tear them apart. From secret glances in crowded rooms to chaotic mornings with coffee spills and clingy hugs... From laughter echoing through messy apartments to nights spent in cold hospital corridors... This is not just a love story. It's a story of staying. Of choosing. Of fighting. For love. For life. For each other. A story about the moments that make a lifetime- and the kind of love that lingers, even when everything else fades. ---Complete
Between Silences: Still?
He gave her roses that wilted by morning. The other boy - the one who never said a word - simply held the door open. Ira waited six years for love. What she found instead was betrayal, silence, and a hand that never tried to hold her... but never let her fall. A slow-burn story of broken truths, quiet glances, and what it means to be truly seen.Complete
Safe With You
Ivy never expected to fall for her brother's best friend-especially not after everything she'd been through. Shipped off to live with the father who never wanted her, Ivy spent years learning how to survive. But when she returned home broken and bruised, it wasn't her family who saved her. It was Tyler. Her protector. Her safe place. Her Daddy. Now living under the same roof, Ivy and Tyler navigate a fragile, healing love rooted in deep trust and the softest, sweetest version of dominance and submission. Tyler gives Ivy everything she never knew she needed: gentle rules, bedtime snuggles, and unconditional care. In return, she gives him her heart-and her whole self. But the past never stays buried. When a ghost from their history reappears, it threatens everything they've built. Together, they'll face old scars, reclaim their power, and prove that love-especially the kind that's chosen every single day-is the most healing force of all.Complete

Description: > "You can't fix someone who's already broken." Han Jisung has heard those words too many times. Living in a house filled with anger and bruises, he's mastered the art of smiling through pain - until one night everything breaks for real. Lee Minho is cold, sharp, and terrifyingly quiet. Everyone says he has no heart - but maybe he just keeps it hidden behind walls made of fear. When Jisung and Minho's worlds collide, pain meets pain. Enemies become something else - something dangerous, something fragile, something that might just save them both. Because sometimes, broken people don't need fixing. They just need someone to stay. - ⚠️ TW: Mentions of abuse, trauma, eating disorder, self-harm, and depression. No graphic content. Story focuses on recovery, love, and found family.Complete
Kept.......(#1 of the Love series)
He wasn't offering kindness. He just didn't shut the door. I said I could cook. I lied. I said I wasn't a thief. I lied again. But for some reason, he let me stay. And that's when everything started to hurt less. Kai doesn't trust people. He trusts what they leave unguarded. Living on the streets has made him quick with his hands and quicker with lies. When he spots Elias - calm, unreadable, alone - he sees an easy mark. But Elias doesn't react the way he should. He doesn't panic. He doesn't question. He offers Kai a place to stay. No strings. No rules. No locked doors. Kai tells himself it's temporary. He tells himself it's survival. He doesn't expect to feel safe. He doesn't expect to start wanting to stay. And he definitely doesn't expect that staying will bring everything he ran from crashing back into his life.
You Talk Too Much
Nicolas didn't want friends. Didn't want attention. Definitely didn't want her. But then Lina sat next to him. Every. Single. Day. She talked through the awkward silences, laughed at her own jokes, and asked questions he never answered. She was chaos in sneakers and bubblegum lip gloss - and he wanted nothing to do with her. ...Until he did. Because somehow, her noise started drowning out the thoughts he didn't know how to escape. And her voice became the only thing that made the silence bearable. This isn't a love story. Not at first. This is a story about a boy who lost his spark... And the girl who wouldn't let him disappear quietly. ✅ Nicolas ✅ Lina ✅ "You Talk Too Much" ✅ High school setting ✅ Healing + chaos + slow-burn (Btw I forgot to add that there will be no smut of any kind in this story. Maybe an innocent kiss or something but nothing else)
To the Boy Who Made Me Feel Everything
Some stories begin with a kiss. Ours began with a handshake and silence. He wasn't supposed to mean anything-just a classmate, a stranger, a passing name. But somehow, he became the boy who made me feel everything. The one I texted when I didn't know what to say. The one I looked for in crowded rooms without meaning to. The one who sat beside me once on a bus...and never really left. This isn't a perfect love story. There were no grand gestures, no dramatic declarations, and no promises. Just two people, slowly breaking and becoming, in a world that never stopped moving. He wasn't mine. But he felt like home.
"Where the Broken Hearts Learn to Breathe"
Description In a cruel world where love rarely stays, YN walks with trembling hands and quiet tears, hiding the wounds no one ever cared to see. Her parents gave her life but never warmth. Childhood became a battlefield, her heart the casualty. She grew up learning silence instead of comfort, fear instead of safety, shaking instead of smiling. Everyone left her, broke her, or betrayed her - until only one person remained. Taehyung. The boy with soft eyes and a trembling heart of his own. The boy who learned to hold her pain before he learned to hold his dreams. The boy who never let go - not even when she pushed him away, not even when the world tried to convince him she wasn't worth staying for. This is a story of two fragile souls woven together since childhood - one bruised by life, the other breaking from watching her break. A story of trembling breaths, panic attacks, late-night tears, healing steps so small yet so brave, and a love so gentle that it could melt even the coldest ache. Where suffering becomes softness. Where trauma becomes survival. Where love becomes a place to rest. Where two broken hearts learn - slowly, painfully, beautifully - to breathe again. ---
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.
