"Falling in love with your best friend is just a waste of friendship."
That's what Azriel Gaile Santos used to believe until he vanished without a goodbye. Karl Miguel Caviel was the boy who made the stars feel closer, the skies feel warmer... and the silence feel unbearable when he left.
Years passed. Azriel chased the universe, and it welcomed her back. Now a NASA-affiliated astronomer, she stands beneath the dome of a planetarium, celebrating the agency's 25th anniversary. Only to find him there, watching her like a memory that never faded.
Older. Colder. Pretending she's just another face in the crowd.
But skies hold secrets. And sometimes, the past doesn't stay grounded.
What begins as a reunion feels like a puzzle. A pull. A warning.
Because some stories are written in the stars
And some are rewritten in blood.

Xavier [COMPLETED]
"Close your eyes." he croaked, I did as I was told without any disobedience. "Have you any idea how badly I want to kiss you right now?" I shook my head in reply. "Badly, so fucking badly." he whispered as his harsh breath fanned across my cheek. Dark haired and tattooed, Xavier looked like the ultimate bad boy...but weren't bad boys meant to have that boyish charm? The thing is, Xavier was extremely guarded, hot headed and quite frankly, scary. In fact, Xavier was many things but romantic and loving wasn't two of them. He was a building half built, a puzzle with half of the pieces missing... Until he met me. Warning: Bad language (lots of). A possessive delinquent that is guaranteed to make you smile (or cry.)Complete

Alienus
No one expected that it would happen until it did. Earth was dying. We, the few who survived the disease, were all contained in cells with artificial light and oxygen and food in the form of pills. So when help came in the form of C'Riel, an alien race that lived in a planet called Xe'Krein, many people found hope. But I was wary. Why would the C'Riel help us? How did we benefit them? What I didn't expect to happen was meeting him. The fire-eyed alien. My alien. And then I found out, that sometimes answers to the questions we want to know are sick and leave you wondering if everything was a lie.Complete
The Blood Order
"Are you coming to bed firefly?" He says to me laying his hands over my waist joining me in looking over the city. "I want to look out for a little longer if that is alright?" I mumble hoping that he heard me anyways, I wasn't ready to walk into that bedroom, and I don't think I ever would be. "Of course, I'll be getting ready for bed, come in whenever you are ready." He says confidently and walks away leaving my waist cold something for which I am grateful. Especially when my mind burns with other more dangerous thoughts. The warmth that forever lingers in the air, never burning the skin, but always reminding about what is around us. I force air into my lungs feeling the unexpected warmth fill me. He stands in the room watching me even though he said he was getting ready for bed. He is worried about me, about me jumping. I have contemplated it I will admit, but he would stop me before I fell even two feet. I was stuck, and no one could save me. Not even myself, my fucking weak self. His presence is demanding no matter where we are, but right now I could sense everything about him, and I try to suppress the unwanted feelings that curl right under my skin. "Firefly? About done?" He calls out and I release my hand from the guard rail not realizing that as I looked at the lights that covered the shining city with the falling fire in the background that my subconscious was thinking about how nice it would be... how relieving it would be... to just fall. True freedom. I take a step back and wrap my hands together turning around to a fully clothed unchanged man and nod once. I could see the fear in his eyes that I would, he knows if he gave me the chance... I wasn't ready for this, but I had to survive. No matter what.

Someone Like Adam
"You know, it won't physically hurt you to be nice for once." I crossed my arms in front of my chest and groaned. "I don't want to take a chance." the corner of his lips lifted a little as he finished his sentence. "Well, you don't hear me complaining. The view of a someone so desperately working out is not a delight either." I retorted in a weary voice. "I bet it isn't." he narrowed his eyes at me and commented. Ugh.. Why is he so damn annoying? "You know what, just take your arrogant ass out of my room." I scowled at him, pointing towards the door. With small steps, he walked towards me. I took a step backwards when he neared me. He was invading my personal space, making me a bit flustered. The urge to push back his golden-brown hair covering his forehead was increasing with every passing second. "Gladly." he mumbled against my face and then walked past me out of my room. It took me a minute to calm down my racing heartbeat. ... He was a mystery, an enigma I wanted to solve. He was exhausting, he was infuriating, yet staying away from him was not an option. He was making me feel things I haven't felt before. Adam McArdle!

Stellar Serendipity [Boys' Love]
Apollo never believed in wishes-not even under a sky full of shooting stars. Hope felt dangerous, and love? Even riskier. Still, on one rare night when the universe seemed too beautiful to ignore, he lets himself whisper a quiet dare to the stars: "There's nothing to lose if I believe... right?" Then love arrives. Sudden, intense, breathtaking. The kind that makes late-night conversations feel like constellations forming, the kind that makes you think maybe, just maybe, destiny does exist. But the universe has a way of testing dreamers. When everything bright begins to blur, Apollo is thrown into a journey that challenges his courage, his heart, and everything he thought he knew about love, trust, and himself. In the aftermath of broken faith and searching for light again, a new spark quietly rises-gentle, steady, and unexpectedly powerful. And one magical Christmas night under a sky full of stars, Apollo learns that some wishes don't give you what you asked for, they lead you to what you truly deserve.Complete
