Lennon never planned on getting tangled up in the messy world of late nights, crowded bars, and comedy sets that end long after midnight. She just worked there, editing videos and hiding behind her own walls. Angela, on the other hand, lived for the spotlight... sharp, magnetic, always ready with a line that could make strangers laugh until their sides hurt.
They shouldn't have collided the way they did. But somewhere between the punchlines and the quiet walks home, Lennon found herself leaning in, and Angela found someone who saw her beyond the stage lights. What started as banter became a rhythm all their own-inside jokes, sidelong glances, moments that felt too fragile to name.
It wasn't a joke. It wasn't a routine. It was real.
And the funny thing about it is... sometimes the best stories don't end the way you think they will.

Some Sunlights Burn
Darkness is her only friend. Ivaseah has long made peace with it, curling into its arms like an old habit. She dissolved into the corners of rooms she never felt she belonged in, drifting through life like a fading echo. With a heart too fractured to feel and a mind too loud to sleep, she learned to wear silence like skin. She never wanted to be saved. She only ever wanted to disappear, quietly, painlessly, without a trace. But then he came. With eyes that saw too much. With hands that felt like home. With a light she never asked for. And for the first time, Seah wondered, just maybe, she didn't have to rot alone. But even the softest light casts shadows. And not all sunlights are warm enough to heal. In letting him in, she unknowingly handed him the match. And in loving him, she set herself on fire.Complete

If You Love Me
"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.

We were trying. We really were. It seemed as if our previously amazing progress had come to a complete standstill. We were doomed to be nobodies. Then I met you, and suddenly I was hit with a wave of inspiration. Words seemed to spill out when I was with you. We seemed to grow even more. You would stare at the stars, you were fascinated with everything. Your wonder and awe at the world seemed to balance out my negative view of the very same place. I didn't plan on falling in love, but how could I not? - all respects to Jenna bc she's literally a queen - [triggers in the tags ↓↓]Complete
Unbroken Souls (Spencer Reid x Reader POV)
There are moments in life that you work so hard for, things your younger self couldn't even imagine you doing... and when those moments arrive, what do you do with them? After joining the Victim Services Branch of the FBI in Quantico, it's been a dream to interact with the BAU and assist a case of theirs. Your lifestyle of late nights and overworking yourself keep you single despite this loneliness you refuse to acknowledge. But when you're constantly reminded of how quickly life can shatter around your feet, leaving you bare and bleeding as you try to put the pieces back together as neatly as you can... only for life to never be the same again, you start to feel it a little more. When the call finally comes, your work pulls you into a case the BAU is tackling, and while it caught you a little off guard, you walk away from the case with something more. Spencer has never shown vulnerability until you came around, and then things changed. From innocent comments to passionate nights, your world shifts as your two souls collide into one. *Disclaimer/Trigger Warning: this story is a work of fiction building off of information gathered from the series Criminal Minds and my own experiences within social service work. This story will contain mature topics such as addiction, mental health, suicide (past tense), trauma, detailed intimacy (idk if I'm qualified to deem this smut, so you be the judge), intercourse, and other topics readers may feel uncomfortable with.Complete
