They have the careers, the spotlight, the chaos. Charlotte, with scripts and red carpets. Lucy, with stadiums and training grounds. But when the doors close and the lights fade, they're just two women, two dogs, and a love that makes everything else quieter.

From sunsets in Spain to the rainy streets of London, from bagel runs in New York to nights curled up on the sofa, theirs is a story of long distance, soft mornings, and the kind of intimacy that doesn't fade.

A slow-burn sapphic romance about finding comfort in the small things - and discovering that even across countries, even with the world watching, love can still feel like a secret kept just between two people.All Rights Reserved

Because of Haven Beach by GemmaMari10

"The moon's really beautiful, if you think about it," I blurted. "Yeah?" he asked, mild amusement and curiosity mingling in his voice. "Yeah," I confirmed. "It's just- there's something about the moon that's ethereal. I don't really know how to describe it, but it's a constant in life. You can't always see it, but you have to trust that it's out there somewhere. And when you can see it, it's all bright and shiny and overcomes the darkness." I paused, searching for the right words. "I don't know. I guess it's a reminder that there are good things out there, even if you can't see them... And it's cool to think that someone hundreds of miles away is staring at the exact same moon as you. It makes me feel not so alone in life." Turning my head, I saw him staring at me intently with a thoughtful look on his face. "Too deep for a Friday night?" I laughed nervously, feeling my face grow hot. And this was precisely why I didn't go to parties. He shook his head and seemed to snap out of his daze. "It was deep in a good way." *** SHE was quiet & left out.

Love Me Slowly [ GL ] EDITED by tnzcii

Love doesn't always arrive with fireworks or urgency. Sometimes it grows quietly, like dawn spilling light through the curtains slow, sure, and soft. Learning someone's silences before their stories, their habits before their histories. It means savoring the small moments that don't demand to be remembered but end up being unforgettable anyway. It's not about falling fast, but about staying steady. 🖇️. Date started : Date Finished :

SPOTLIGHT by Ataraxia_E1020

In the dazzling world of fame and flashing cameras, when the curtain falls and the stage lights fade, two women will discover that the greatest performance is living their truth. Engfa is a star an idol who moves under spotlight and expectation, confident yet haunted by the cost of her public image. Charlotte is the journalist assigned to profile her cool, observant, determined to expose the real person behind the glamour. What starts as assignment and obligation becomes something deeper, when late nights, whispered confessions and shared vulnerability rewrite both their stories. Expect moments of sweet laughter, sharp hurt, quiet understanding, and the ache of distance. Expect raw honesty, hidden glances, and that flutter when fiction begins to feel more like reality. This is a slow-burn, cinematic romance where the world sees the star but only one woman sees the heart. Dive in. Because when the masks come off, love might just be the most dangerous headline.

Where the Sun Finds Us by sunfloweroil_

🌤️ Where the Sun Finds Us Sometimes, the light you've been chasing... finds you first. In the middle of her midlife crisis, Lei thought the chaotic part of her life was finally over. But sometimes, in the midst of all the noise, that's where new stories begin. One day, she receives an unexpected scholarship to Celestra Republic's most prestigious academy - a school for the nation's brightest minds and top celebrities completing their mandatory academic enlistment. Lei's plan was simple: a fresh start. Quiet. Far from everything that once hurt. But instead of peace, she found five of the country's most famous personalities - each carrying a secret behind their spotlight. A golden-retriever boy with tired eyes. A med student who laughs to hide his guilt. A gentle heir who has everything, except the courage to be real. A composed idol adored by millions but haunted by a past he can't face. And his best friend - someone who somehow feels familiar, even though they've just met. But Lei is different. She's the contrast - the calm to their chaos. She was raised in a home filled with warmth, where love was steady, laughter was constant, and kindness was taught not through words, but through how people treated one another. And that kind of upbringing - she slowly begins to bring it back to the people she meets in Celestra. To those who've forgotten what real happiness feels like. To those who've learned to fake smiles just to survive. Because that's what she was taught - to give the same gentleness she was once given. To be the kind of light that doesn't blind, but heals. And maybe, as she helps them find their own sunshine, Lei will learn how to become the light she's been searching for all along. Because sometimes, you don't have to chase the sun. Sometimes, you just have to be the warmth someone else has been searching for. ✨ A story about kindness passed down, love rediscovered, and how the way we're raised can shape the light we bring into the world.

The Ghost She Chose: A Manager's Mess by IamHaniel

Talia didn't plan on her ex leaving her for a woman she'd seen twice in ten years. She also didn't plan on being thirty-two, single, and crying into her cat's fur. But life has a twisted sense of humor. Now she's running a high-stakes county program by day, and by night? Accidentally catching feelings. For her hot coworker. For her loyal best friend. And maybe, just maybe, still for her ex. Gay panic. Slow burn. A love triangle mess. HR would definitely kill her.

everything about her (sodani) by bigdaddy016

sophia and daniela are best friends. it's comforting. it's safe. it's love. (lowkey rushed lowkey short story even though slow burn is my motto lowkey messy). disclaimer: this is by no means an actual depiction of real life people. these are just characters and only for fun.

Undone by WriterMolly2021

She was the love song. She was the lyric. She was home. After nearly a year of life on the road, Sutton Monroe - the world-famous model known for her swagger, stage presence, and signature smirk - has finally settled into something real with Renée Rapp. A house outside LA. A dog named Atlas. A rhythm they thought could last forever. But fame doesn't wait for anyone. Renée is consumed with writing her next album. Sutton turns down the career opportunity of a lifetime just to stay. And as the music takes shape, something between them starts to break - not loudly, not with drama... but in quiet moments. In things unsaid. In glances that linger too long and words that never come. Then comes the fight. The distance. The song that says too much. Now, with thousands of miles between them and a silence louder than any applause, Sutton has to face the question she never thought she'd ask: Was forever just a lyric? Or is there still something left to save?
