Help Me Pick Up The Pieces {Completed} (GirlXGirl) [TeacherXStudent]
*Destined to Be series book one. Not necessary to read Book one before book two.* Achievements: #1 in Lesbianromance [August 14th, 2019] #4 in Lesbian [September 30th, 2019] #5 in GirlxGirl [August 26, 2019] Avery has had a tough life, a very tough life. She feels like the universe is forever against her. And never thought that, even after everything she's endured, she would ever get her 'Happily Ever After'. Then one day she thinks it may be possible. The woman she had been in love with for years, finally returns her feelings. Avery was finally happy, the woman she loved so much for so long, finally loved her back. Her 'Happily Ever After' was within reach. At least that's what she thought, until the woman managed to shatter Avery's already broken heart into a million pieces. Months later, the wound still fresh, she packs up her stuff and moves back to the city where she was born. She thinks being in a different city and reconnecting with her childhood best friend, will help her heal. But, nothing seems to change at all. At least not until one night about 2 months later. Her friend drags her to a club. To get her friend off her back, she finds a girl to pick up. She expected for it to be a one night stand and that was it but she desperately wants to see the woman again. And she ends up getting her wish but the next time they see each other it's in one of the most unexpected of situations. Just when she was starting to think that she might be able to be happy again, it all goes to crap. Her life seems to be a never ending string of heart break. Maybe the whole universe really is against her. Warning: This story's going to get a bit dark/depressing. And even though it's clearly labeled as such but I still feel I need to say this is a mature girlxgirl story so there will be sex. Also don't read if you have a problem w/ the word fuck because I use it quite liberally.Complete
Might Change
Mara and Ethan once built their love on promises-of trust, warmth, and forever. But as the years pass, the glow that once lit their days begins to fade. Their home, once filled with laughter, feels colder, quieter. Mara longs to bring back the closeness they once shared, while Ethan drifts further into silence, unable to admit the weight of what they've lost. As Mara struggles to revive the bond, she finds herself clinging to memories of their first moments, the tenderness of a love that now feels distant. Ethan, though still present, seems unreachable, and the promises he made echo more like broken vows than lasting truths. Caught between holding on and letting go, Mara begins to wonder if some loves are not meant to survive a single lifetime. Perhaps, she thinks, their story is not ending-just pausing, waiting to be rewritten sa susunod na habang buhay.
