"𝒀𝒐𝒖 𝒅𝒐𝒏'𝒕 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒍 𝒊𝒏 𝒔𝒊𝒍𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆. 𝒀𝒐𝒖 𝒓𝒐𝒕."


Sin Anastasia Mendez, a political science major with a rare condition of albinism with trauma stitched into every corner of her being. Raised in silence and survival, she finds control through music--her violin being the only place she feels safe and heard.

And there's Lucien Haile Jacinto, a third-year political science major and the quiet storm of the orchestra. He plays the cello like it's an extension of his soul--slow, rich, and deeply intentional. With his gentle voice, soft eyes, and sunshine smile, he is the exact opposite of the chaos that surrounds Sin. He has his own bruises too, though he doesn't always show them. Music is his therapy. Kindness is his protest. And Sin? She's the dissonant melody he can't stop listening to.

Author's Note:
🌱 This is my very first story published in Wattpad. I may be a beginner but I hope I'm able to cater something that may suit your reading preferences. Thank you so much, sirens!🤍

"It started the first time I saw you..." * I was all alone. No one was there. No one knew that I was drowning right now. No one knew how much I was hurting. No one could see me... Except for one. Professor Lee... Yes. Professor Lee. My Professor Lee. The teacher that I had fallen so hopelessly and so helplessly for. The teacher who made my heart lodge itself in my throat with his smile and his laugh . . . He had noticed that I was hurting. He cared. Didn't he? The one person who had noticed-who I thought, maybe, just maybe, cared-was forbidden to me. Sure, he may have cared about me, but he cared about me as his student. There was no way that he cared about me the same way I cared about him. There was no way he thought of me the same way I constantly thought of him. He doesn't love me the way I love him... I reminded myself again that we would never be able to have a normal relationship. I'd never be able to hug him or kiss him in public. I'd never be able to hold his hand in public. Take silly pictures with him and upload them to Instagram, or go on double dates with my friends with him. Everything about our relationship would have to stay a secret. And what kind of relationship is that? How could a relationship that could only exist behind closed doors be anything fun? But did I really care more about those things than I did him? No. I didn't need all that stuff...pictures and double dates and public displays of affection. I didn't need them. I just needed-I just wanted-Professor Lee. * Gloria Anderson is a sophomore studying ballet and theatre at a prestigious private college: Accent Academy. The day she meets her new History of Theatre teacher, Professor Daniel Lee, she feels an attraction to him that she cannot explain. A series of events throughout the semester serve to bring student and teacher closer to one another-closer than Gloria could have ever imagined. Can she allow herself to dream of something more with him?

amni has always hated her name. it means peace, but her childhood was anything but peaceful- an endless storm of abuse, silence, and scars she hides behind laughter. when she leaves home for university, she carries the weight of her past like an invisible wound, held together only by stray cats and a fragile smile. then comes irsyad- quiet, careful, with storms of his own. he hears voices in his head, bears a family history heavy with pain, yet searches for light anyway. their first meeting feels like déjà vu, as if the universe stitched two broken souls together. through late-night talks, clumsy laughter, and shared scars, they discover what it means to be seen. but love is never simple for the haunted. trauma lingers, families unravel, and not every promise can be kept. when fate turns cruel, amni must face the question, were the stars she found in irsyad real, or only a dream her wounded heart created to survive? a tender yet tragic story of healing, vulnerability, and love's fragile power- where even the deepest scars can become constellations. romance at its core - the bond between amni and irsyad, tender, awkward, and transformative. psychological drama - deep dives into trauma, mental illness, abuse, memory, and healing. surreal undertones - where the boundary between dream, memory, and reality blurs. slice-of-life - the everyday moments. coffee dates, art studios, libraries, rainy walks, part-time jobs, woven in with the heavier themes. based on my real first love story.

~some things you just can't speak about.~ // hazel eloise finley's old english and frankly quite pretentious name was never released to public whenever she survived the shooting at her high school. not even after the paramedics took her away with a severe bullet wound to the calf or even whenever she drug and hopped herself outside for medical attention afterwards either. only known as the jane doe that survived a school shooting, and the years of physical therapy, permanent nerve damage and chronic pain proved to be the least of her worries. it took years of therapy, hospitalizations, and prescriptions for her to even feel ready to start college after high school. and whenever she did, much like her name, she was determined to bury it. despite the trauma she went on to become one of the most gifted music majors enrolled at the prestigious university in Nashville, TN, an honors student, a residential advisor, and slowly making her way to the student council someday. Though just coming into her sophomore year, a heavily tattooed literature major transfers into the room across from hers that throws everything off track. Julien Rose Baker infuriated her at first, not only because her friends and roommates were loud and obnoxious and stayed up all hours of the night playing loud music and probably doing anything but studying, but because she was better than her, in every sense of the word. sight reading music without missing a beat or a note, shredding her guitar in nearly every practice room, leaving most professors in awe of her vocal range, and not to mention the writings of hers read during some of the english classes the two shared. it was jealousy at its finest. though whenever an unexpected turn of events leaves hazel almost having no choice but to be vulnerable, something else besides avoiding her dorm neighbor might turn into something else. ~ TW for gun violence, ptsd, anxiety, depression, etc...

***COMPLETE*** Series coming down Nov 1st He asked me to tell him why I loved the cello and I told him but I wasn't expecting his response. "The way you describe it is so beautiful. Reminds me of what it feels like when you're really making love to someone." "Uh no. It's nothing like that," I said. "Oh I think it is. Perhaps you've never really had someone make love to you. It's euphoria and relaxation all at once if it's being done right. All those touches," he brushed his fingers against my neck and I shivered. "All the arousal," he stepped closer and dropped his head next to mine, his hot breath hitting my skin. "All the kisses in all the right places," he murmured, his lips brushing against my ear. "You can't tell me the feeling of someone filling you up and caressing your body slowly, over all the curves, all the peaks, into all the crevices while they move in and out of you, with you, making your own music with all the moans and whimpers." Emery Barner is in a long-time relationship with her highschool boyfriend, but things aren't going exactly great between them.

Milo Sanders, a billionaire businessman on the spectrum, is scrambling to find a replacement musician for his upcoming charity event after the one he had lined up was stolen away. Milo is stewing in anger over dinner at the loss of a popular musician, he discovers a cellist playing at the very restaurant he's in. He never intended to want anything from her except her musical talent but the more time he spends with her, the more he finds himself wanting much more from her.

[Started Writing : 3rd August, 2023] "For fuck sake, leave me alone." I screamed out as tears commenced gathering in my eyes. He said nothing. He just sat there watching me lose my temper. "Answer me." I growled shooting daggers on his way with my eyes. "Be my girlfriend. You will get everything you lost." "I don't want to be." "You have no choice." Anastasia wants nothing but to get out of the hell hole called 'her life'. They say study hard and then you can earn money and have a good life. But despite having a degree in hands she was still jobless. When life was giving her bitter test then when a devil showed up at the door of her heart, dressed like an angel. The devil wants nothing but a favour from her while promising her everything she wants. Morally grey. That's the definition to construe Alex Vesper. Strict, rude, emotionless, focused and evil. He wants nothing but revenge from a certain someone who might have scratched his ego a little bit. And at that time Anastasia was the best option for him.
