He was the boy who couldn't slow down - always thinking, always fearing, always needing more. His love was heavy, urgent, and a little too much at times. He was anxious.

She was the girl who lived in the present - private, grounded, and stubborn about her space. Her love wasn't loud, but it was steady. She was avoidant.

Together, they were fire and earth. He wanted forever all at once; she wanted now, one moment at a time.

This is their story - of late-night texts, silly fights, bad dreams, stolen kisses, talks that made faces go red and bodies warm and the kind of intimacy that taught him that love isn't about rushing toward the future. It's about breathing in the present, and knowing it's enough.

But will he learn to slow down before his hunger for "more" breaks the only thing that ever felt real?All Rights Reserved

Limitless Conversations by Amreek7

Two people. One bench. A thousand memories between them. What began as simple laughter and late-night calls turned into distance, silence, and unspoken words. They loved each other once - deeply, painfully - but life had other plans. Between miscommunication, loss, and time, they drifted apart... leaving only echoes of what they used to be. Years later, fate brings them back to the same place where everything began - the bench beneath the streetlight. Only this time, they're not the same people who once fell in love. She's learned to rebuild herself from the quiet, to find meaning through her writing and the ghosts of her past. He's learned to stop running, to sit with his emotions, and to rediscover the parts of himself he once gave away. What follows isn't a love story in the traditional sense - it's a story about understanding. About heartbreak that transforms instead of destroys. About growth that doesn't erase what came before but gives it purpose. Because sometimes, love doesn't vanish. It just changes shape. And sometimes, the most powerful conversations are the ones that never really end - they simply wait for you to come back.

Strawberry by cryptodice

A scent. A scar. A slow-burning fucking romance dressed as nostalgia. It started with a fruit. Not love, not sex - a goddamn strawberry. The kind that looks like it's been kissed by every shade of red your childhood never had. He didn't share it. Didn't speak of it. Just tasted it once, and carried the ache ever since. Years later, she walked in - smelling exactly like that forgotten sweetness. Not perfume. Not fantasy. Just... truth. Sharp, quiet, terrifying truth. The kind that crawls under your skin and whispers remember me when you least want to. He lied to her face. About himself. About the million ways he'd already started unraveling. But she knew. Women like her always know. She stared at him like sin dressed in judgment - and touched his wrist like she already owned his pulse. And he? He was fucked. Because she wasn't just beautiful. She was red. That memory. That craving. And no matter how much he pretended to be in control - she was already in his bloodstream. This isn't a love story. It's a slow possession. By scent. By memory. By her. And it ends exactly how it starts - with him on his knees, and her smelling like fucking strawberries.

Still, She Hoped by just_yvette

She's a girl with a hopelessly romantic heart-someone who's always believed in soulmates, late-night talks, and love that feels like home. But reality hasn't been kind. Time after time, she's been cheated on, left to pick up the pieces of promises broken and dreams torn apart. Still, she holds onto hope, even when it hurts. Then, just when she's about to give up on love entirely, someone new enters her life. Unexpected. Gentle. Different. For the first time in a long while, she dares to believe again. She lets herself fall. And just when her heart begins to feel safe, he breaks it too-leaving her more lost than ever. She's a hopeless romantic-someone who's always dreamed of deep, lasting love, the kind that feels like fate and fills every quiet space in her heart. But life hasn't followed the script she imagined. She's been cheated on more times than she can count, each betrayal carving a deeper wound, each lie dimming the light inside her. Still, she keeps hoping. Her mind is a storm-racing thoughts, endless questions, memories she can't escape. Why wasn't she enough? Will anyone ever stay? She tries to make sense of the chaos, holding onto that small, fragile thread of belief that love is still out there. Then someone new arrives-unexpected and warm, just different enough to make her believe that maybe, just maybe, things will be different this time. She opens her heart again. She lets herself feel. But the pattern repeats. He leaves. And the pain hits harder, because this time she truly thought it would last. Now, with too much on her mind and a heart full of silent screams, she stands at the edge of hope and heartbreak, still wishing-against all odds-that real love will find her. "She believed in love, even after being broken again and again. With a mind full of storms and a heart full of cracks, she still hoped someone would choose to stay."

The Same Heart by tales_of_echo

This isn't about forgetting. It's about choosing love again. With the same heart, that once loved another.

Brutally yours by Inkiijita

To the quiet girls with stormy hearts. To the boys who feel too much but show too little. To those who were never chosen first - but loved like they were the last. This story is for the unseen, the unheard, the untamed. For every soul who thought they were "too soft" for this world - and found someone who didn't just see their softness, but protected it with fire. For anyone who still believes that love isn't always gentle - but when it's real, it is brutally honest, brutally fierce, and brutally yours. And most of all - To the one who dreams loud in silence: This is your story. You just haven't lived it yet.

LIZA: A Broken Became The Blade by Sangeylhamo22

This is not just a story. It's a journey into shadows, betrayal, and survival. Dawn of a Dream. Ashes of Trust. Fire of Vengeance. Liza's life was never meant to be this way. She wanted love, light, and freedom. But when the people closest to her turned into her nightmares, she learned the hardest truth-sometimes, silence kills faster than wounds. This novel is about more than pain. It's about strength. About a girl who was broken, but rose again-not as a victim, but as fire itself. Some may call her a monster. Some may call her a hero. But this is her voice. Her truth. Her war. If you've ever felt unseen, unheard, or silenced-this story is for you. Hey readers 💙 Thank you so much for picking up this story. I've poured my heart into Liza's journey-it's raw, dark, and full of pain, but also about strength and survival. I'd love to hear your honest feedback as you read. If anything feels confusing, too heavy, or doesn't flow well-please let me know in the comments. Your thoughts will really help me grow as a writer and make this story even stronger.

You Are Mine by AyiraWrites21

I was enduring a feeling which I determined to never let happen, I was feeling suffocated in the web of something unexplainable, I was getting lost for the beauty of heart not knowing how to take care of it. I was longing for something too fragile, gentle, delicate knowing that it can get broken by being with me. "He was my safe place without me realizing it... he was my savior even before i met him, he was the person i dreamt about without recognizing it, he was the love in a heart where there was no hope of any emotion, he became my only family making me remember the love i lost with my parents." I wanted to keep her in my world, hoping our combined colors would blend into a beautiful sky filled with stars, a moon, and endless happy moments shared between us. She felt like my destination, a place where my mind could finally be at peace, free of thought. In a world where I felt defined by my parents' expectations, she felt like my own reality.

Night's embrace by nyxalandra_

I'm Nyx - a girl who loved too deeply and trusted too easily. She was my girlfriend. Then my sister. Then my heartbreak. When she left me for my best friend, I thought that was the end of my story. But then came Ash - a stranger who made me smile again. A masc with soft words and a broken heart of her own. I thought she was my healing, but turns out, I was just her distraction. Now I'm learning what love really means - not the kind that destroys you, but the kind you find within yourself when everything else falls apart. This isn't just a love story. It's a story about losing, loving, breaking... and finding myself again.

Mr. Awesome by blackrose21

The new love between two people. He says it's fate. She lives with no regret of meeting him. Together they hold each others hearts. There's one catch and hold to it all though. The storm they both have to live through. Not so sure of how they'll ever make it out. But no matter what, there fate together will hold together as one. If they were ever to lose it all neither would have regrets of meeting up. Just wishful dreaming to be back together. The only thing she is worried about is not making it through the storm. He says he'll hold her tight anyway. So thats when she handed over the key to her heart to him...
