Florida heat had a way of pressing secrets into your skin.
Jasmin knew this better than anyone-because hers weighed on her heart every time she saw him.

Justin had moved to Coral Springs three years ago. He wasn't the boy on magazine covers; he was just a boy next door with honey-blond hair that fell into his eyes, a crooked smile, and a skateboard that never left his side.

They met at the library, of all places. Jasmin-shy, soft-spoken, always hiding behind her spiral notebook-looked up one afternoon to see him struggling to untangle his headphones. And somehow, by the end of the week, they'd become inseparable.

Now, at twenty, Jasmin was a college junior majoring in Early Childhood Education. Her parents, immigrants from the Dominican Republic, were proud-though sometimes a little overprotective. She tried not to mind. After all, she'd always been the quiet one, the "good daughter."

But her heart was loud when it came to him.

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."

"If you love me, you won't leave me." Jessie has believed those words from her boyfriend, Josh, since senior year of high school. She loves him and doesn't want to leave him. Not even when he shouts at her and hits her. Jessie's best friend, Kolleen, can't stand seeing her in that situation. With a bit of convincing - and the worst beating she'd ever received - Jessie agrees to move into an apartment with Kolleen. But not long after, Jessie is scared the worst of her nightmares will soon become a reality. Josh goes missing, and suddenly Jessie would swear she's being followed. One night changes everything, and one person soon changes Jessie's outlook. A responding officer from that fateful night begins to seek her out, at first claiming it's part of his job. As she spends time with her new friend outside of his job, she starts realizing that her feelings are evolving. After being abused for over a year, Jessie is terrified she's falling in love. What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet. She makes up her mind that if he is falling, and if he does love her, he'll wait for her to be ready, and if she loves him, she won't let herself hurt him.

Summer Memories by LETollin
25 parts Complete
Yoona's summer plans were simple: survive the history exam, avoid awkward small talk, and recharge by the sea with a good book. Falling for her brother's best friend? Not on the agenda. But when quiet, bookish Nate offers to help her study, late-night cramming sessions turn into beach walks, stolen glances, and something she never expected-real connection. Between heart-to-hearts under the stars and slow, tender moments that make her chest ache, Yoona starts to wonder if this summer might mean something more. As college approaches and the end of summer looms, friendships shift, love blooms, and secrets unravel-including one that could change everything about the bet they made during the first week at the beach... "I knew that if I wanted to make a move, this was the moment. I snuck a glance at her-her skin glowed under the soft radiance of the lanterns' flickering light. She looked so beautiful. I didn't want to ruin it by saying anything. Instead, I looked down at her hand. Slowly, I shifted mine toward hers, careful not to startle her. She seemed deep in thought, mesmerized by the beauty above us. My hand brushed against hers, then I pulled away instinctively-but when I reached out again, this time a bit more bravely, she didn't retreat. Instead, she moved closer. And when our fingers finally intertwined, I closed my eyes and let the happiness rush through me. The tension in my chest evaporated, and I finally exhaled." New chapter every day - double updates on Fridays!

1. Jessica's first video call with her boyfriend didn't show him on screen. Instead, it was his roommate-Matthew. The man's eyes were dark, his eyelids thin, a faint double fold. His features were flawless, so perfect that even a close-up revealed not a single blemish. Jessica quickly covered herself, wearing barely a scrap of clothing, and forced a calm tone. "Did you pick up the wrong phone?" "No." Matthew's voice was cool, detached. "This is my WhatsApp." Jessica cut the call, only to realize his profile picture and even his display name were identical to her boyfriend's. She had assumed their paths would never cross again. Until that night. By sheer accident, she found herself pressed against him, his hands gripping her waist, her body trembling under him. His heavy breaths filled her ears. And when he bent down and claimed her earlobe with his lips, she realized just how searing his kisses could be. 2. At J University, Matthew was untouchable-a crown jewel of the campus, aloof and proud, adored by countless girls. No one would ever connect him to Jessica, his roommate's girlfriend. Until one day, someone saw them hand in hand by the lake. Rumors flew: "No picture, no truth. Impossible!" Soon after, someone posted a photo: behind the half-open car window, Jessica was draped in a black coat, her slender waist gripped firmly by a large hand, Matthew's lips attacking hers with fierce, focused intensity-biting, claiming, consuming. 3. On the first day of college, Matthew watched as his roommate arrived, hand-in-hand with a woman, a beaming smile on his face. "Matthew, this is my girlfriend. Isn't she beautiful?" Matthew's gaze landed on the shy Jessica. Slowly, deliberately, he said, "Beautiful." No one could tell the storm raging beneath his calm exterior. Every second, his jealousy clawed higher. Every second, he was losing himself to it.
