The rooftop scene played in slow motion in her eyes. Her boyfriend's hands wrapped around her best friend, their lips locked, their laughter echoing in the crisp morning air.
Her heart didn't just break it turned to dust.
The voices in her head chuckled darkly, whispering like shadows:
"If you had chosen him... you wouldn't be in pain. He would never betray you. He has been watching, waiting... a red flag to the world, but to you... a green light."
She staggered back, her breath trembling. "Who... who are you?" she whispered, pressing her hands to her ears.
"We are your choices. Your paths. And the gangster who scares everyone? He would rather die than see you cry."
The voices faded, but their words rooted in her chest.
The next day in class, she could barely focus. Everyone knew her as the quiet girl who never caused trouble, but now her world tilted sideways. When she glanced at the back corner, she caught him staring Raven, the school's infamous gangster. He leaned against his chair lazily, tattoos peeking from under his sleeve, but his eyes those sharp, storm colored eyes softened the moment they met hers.
She quickly looked away, cheeks burning.
At lunch, she found her seat empty. Her supposed best friend didn't sit beside her anymore. Her ex avoided her completely, as if she was the one at fault. She tried to eat, but her throat closed up.
Then a tray slammed down across from her.
"You're not eating," Raven muttered, sitting down uninvited.
Her eyes widened. "Why are you-"
"Because you look like hell," he cut in. "And because I told myself if I ever see you cry over someone who isn't me, I'll make them regret it."
Her stomach knotted. Was he joking? Threatening? Or... protecting?
Before she could answer, the voices whispered again-only she could hear them:
"See? He burns for you. Dangerous to others, safe for you. Don't push him away..."

Star Struck ✔️
His back hit the wall behind him and she came falling onto his chest. Both of them were stunned as the tenseness air grew stronger. Although she couldn't quite his face clearly, she knew for sure that he was staring right back at her. Suddenly, she felt something. Her hands that were against his chest-thumping movement. She blinked her eyes and leaned her ear forward to his chest. He realized what she was doing and pushed her away from him. "Is that your heart beating?" He cleared his throat and flashed her a glare. "Of course. Do I look dead to you?" She opened her mouth to say something but he interrupted her quickly. "You're making me late for my class. Stop bothering me." He turned around and walked off awkwardly. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - This fanfic is dedicated to my best friend -FF #1Complete

Unspoken
"You're still here to learn," he continues, his tone almost hard now, but his voice betrays a flicker of vulnerability. "And that's all. Nothing more." Sohee swallows, every word feeling like a puzzle piece she can't quite fit. A part of her wants to believe him. Why would he say that now ? Another part of her wonders if that's just another mask, another wall he's trying to keep between them. She stands there, unsure, her mouth dry. The silence between them stretches, heavy with unspoken words. Then, with a movement that feels too deliberate, too intimate, he shifts-just enough to glance over his shoulder at her. For the briefest moment, their eyes meet, and in his gaze, she sees something else. A depth, a spark, maybe even regret. And for the first time, she wonders if this is something more than just teacher and student. Sohee's voice is barely above a whisper, but it's filled with more uncertainty than she wants to admit. "Right." Her response is automatic, but her chest aches with the weight of it. She doesn't know why, but it feels like an answer to something much bigger than the words he just spoke. She turns, her hand brushing the door, but before she can leave, his voice lingers behind her like a faint echo. "Don't go thinking..." He cuts off mid-sentence, the rest of the thought unsaid. The unfinished sentence hangs in the air, and as she steps through the door, she feels the tension coil tighter. Something unsaid. Something just beyond reach. "Nevermind. Good evening, Ms Han."Complete
Drake's Kitten (completed)
He once told me no one knows the real him.I didn't think he meant it, and not in a good way. He is a straight A student, and everyone knows it, not to mention he is on the swim team. All that though isn't the real him, the real him hides deep within himself. ---------- "Can you please tell me what that was?" I nearly shout at him. All I get is silence. He keeps his back to me. "Please, I need some explanation." I beg. I stay still as he stops dead in his tracks. His body is tense and it's scarring me. He turns around slowly to face me with his hands at his sides. His eyes meet mine, but there is no spark of any emotion in them. They are cold and dark making me look away not being able to hold his deadly stare. I feel uneasy under his gaze, and i feel his eyes burning a hole in the side of my face. "No, I won't explain because it's not important." He says in a low, almost, growl. I flinch and look back into his eyes. I feel hurt by his words and I don't know why, but I know he sees it in my eyes. His faces flashes with regret but it's quickly covered up with his faces going back to it's hard cold look. I feel my heart stop and my face go pale. His look terrified me making me hold my breath. "Breath." He orders. I start to breathe again and just blink at him. "Now go." He orders me again. I flinch involuntarily at his tone and jump back slightly. "Please don't let me walk home alone." I beg in a quiet voice, looking down at my feet. The next thing I see are his black combat boots right in front of my shoes. I look up into his eyes and he looks down into mine confusion written all over his face. "How come you aren't running yet?" He questions searching my eyes. "I just can't walk home alone, please I'm scared." I hear him chuckle. "You aren't afraid of me? What can possibly be scarier than me?" He asks. "Well, I know you will keep me safe." "Why is that?" He questions raising an eyebrow at me. "You haven't hurt me." "Yet." He mutters, but I roll my eyes.Complete

That sent another anxious feeling to my gut. Did I look the same? Did we both look lost? I was never found to begin with. All I could focus on was the emotion in his eyes.

But that's not LA. A bright and crowded city with layers of sin and darkness underneath it, ready to prey on its most naive victims. I should know because I was one of them. ***Complete
Beneath the Sanguine
"You think I didn't want to forget you?" Enzo's voice cracked, raw and wrecked. "I tried. God, I fucking tried." Sloan's laugh came sharp and broken. "Then try harder." He stepped closer, green eyes wild. "You don't get it. You're not something I can fucking forget." His hand found her jaw, thumb trembling against her skin. "You're every fucking thing I can't unfeel." Her voice rose, sharp with pain. "And what the fuck do you want me to do about it?" He moved in until their bodies nearly touched, one hand sliding behind her head, pulling her in until their foreheads pressed together. His voice came out low, rough, trembling against her breath. "I want you to hate me more than you miss me," he whispered. "Just once." Sloan's breath hitched sharply, her steel blue eyes locked onto his. Enzo's fingers curled tighter at the nape of her neck, and God, he swore he could feel her breath tremble against his lips. "Maybe then... I could forget you," he whispered, both of them knowing it was a lie. _______ Months after she vanished into tequila, ink, chaos, and strangers' beds, Sloan Harlow still tasted like goodbye. And Enzo Graves remembered every second. Because pretending to move on didn't mean he stopped loving her- It just meant he learned how to suffer quieter. They broke each other. Now they're trying to survive the aftermath. But Enzo's past has a pulse... And obsession hasn't forgotten her name. He stayed in the town that still smells like her-every storm, every sketch, every silence carrying her mark. She ran across oceans, chasing freedom through art, danger, and strangers who almost made her forget. She can't forget him. Every touch since has felt like pretending. He can't let her go. Not when every scar still spells her name. Two continents. One unfinished story. When love turns into memory and memory turns into hunger, what's left is the quiet between heartbeats- the place they still belong to each other.Complete

Rain slicked the pavement, turning the street into a mirror of black glass. Taehyung cradled her against his chest, fingers trembling as they pressed against the spreading warmth. "Stay with me," he rasped, voice breaking. "Please... don't you dare leave me again." A shudder ran through her body. His breath hitched. Bootsteps cut through the storm. Jungkook emerged, coat snapping, eyes a loaded gun. He shoved Taehyung hard, a snarl in his throat. "You freeze while she bleeds," he said, voice like a knife. "Stay down, or I'll put you there." He lifted her, crimson streaking his sleeve. "If she dies," he hissed, "your name goes in the ground with her." The men parted. From the black edge of the street, a figure watched-motionless, rage coiling hot as steel. Engines roared. Jungkook vanished into rain and smoke, leaving Taehyung kneeling in blood and thunder. "I should have protected you," the words cracked apart, raw and desperate. "I should have-" He buried his face in his palm, a guttural sob tearing free. "I'm so damn sorry." Thunder rolled. Somewhere beyond the fractured glow of the streetlights, a presence waited-silent, unseen. Watching. ★★★ Who is "her"? It's a dark romance. And no, it's not a love triangle book. Wait for me, love you bye.
My Boss
And there I stood, with my mouth wide open, my hands shaking, and my legs frozen. My boss looks up from his victim that is laying dead at his feet before wiping his bloodied hands on his shirt. As he saunters over to me, with a devilish hint in his eyes, all I could think about was how freaking pissed I was for my own body betraying my mind when it told me to run. I take a deep breath and close my eyes as he reaches his red stained hands towards my face, knowing this could be my last moment on Earth. Bracing myself for death to happen upon me, I clench my eyes shut tighter and curse myself for not being more brave. You might be wondering how I've ended up in this situation. Well, it all started 6 months ago, when I met the gorgeous stranger who now is holding my fate in his hands....Complete
